There’s a popular joke going around online: if you spent 1,000 yuan to buy Bitcoin in 2010 and held onto it until now, it would’ve turned into 10 billion yuan. Sounds easy, right? “Just hold onto it.” But if you actually lay out the profit curve, you’ll see that the emotional rollercoaster of holding those 1,000 BTC is something no ordinary person could endure: 1,000 → 100K → 1M → 30K → 5M → 800K → 20M → 3M → 51 → 80M Now ask yourself one more time: could you really hold on?
