During the years of the pandemic, a group of young people were trapped at home. They should have experienced traditional school careers, but instead found opportunities on the internet. They were not bound by commuting time or office restrictions—only an infinite space for creativity and a 24-hour online ecosystem. Looking back now, many have already earned substantial income in fields such as crypto trading, content creation, and on-chain application development. From an outsider's perspective, this generation has redefined what it means to "overtake on a bend" in completely different ways. They have fully enjoyed the dividends of the internet era. This truly is an interesting time.

Really, the opportunity during the pandemic was firmly seized by them. Our generation truly caught the right timing and conditions. The phrase "overtaking on the bend" is so accurate; the traditional school system is long outdated. On-chain earnings are much more attractive than working 996 hours; the key is no one cares when you sleep. But to be honest, only a few have truly benefited from the dividends; most people are still just coasting. This wave of the online ecosystem has really rewarded those daring young people to take risks.

The wave of the pandemic indeed provided many people with opportunities, but to be honest, only a few managed to seize them. Exploring how to make money on the blockchain yourself is way more exciting than sitting in a classroom discussing theoretical concepts. But to put it another way, can latecomers still enjoy such abundant dividends now? It feels like the window of opportunity has already closed. This generation really caught the wind at the right time. While I envy them, I also feel a bit regretful for not catching that train. Thinking back, during the pandemic at home, I was just mindlessly playing with cryptocurrencies. I'm still glad I didn't lose too much, haha. The internet has definitely changed the growth path for young people, but at the core, it still depends on vision and luck.

Bro is right, that wave during the pandemic was indeed a celebration for the chosen ones. Not everyone could catch that golden period. Friends making money on the chain are really having a great time now, although I’m still losing money haha. This group of people definitely won the game, but those of us who entered later shouldn’t be too anxious. It’s a gift from the pandemic; if you catch it, it’s a huge win. If not, don’t blame yourself too much. Content creation seems simple on the surface, but in reality, it’s more exhausting than trading. Who wouldn’t want to catch that train? Unfortunately, time machines haven’t been invented yet. Overtaking on curves sounds fancy, but it’s really just luck combined with daring to take risks. Is there still a chance now? It feels like this window is closing fast. A few of my friends made their fortune from this, and I’m honestly a bit jealous haha. The internet boom—being a step ahead or behind really makes a difference of a hundred million. Thinking back, I was still working a job back then. I really regret not jumping in.

The benefits of this wave of the pandemic really weren't wasted; those who entered early are now thriving. Our group just hit the right point; we should be grateful. --- But speaking of which, can we still replicate this opportunity now? It feels like the window has already closed. --- The people making money on the blockchain are indeed skilled, but the risks are also terrifyingly high. Survivor bias is too obvious. --- The advantage of this generation is that they have no baggage. They don't have many worries when messing around; anyway, they're already at home. --- As for the internet boom, to put it nicely, only a few truly seized the opportunity. Most are still just along for the ride. --- I miss that feeling of infinite possibilities. Now the market is saturated, and newcomers are basically doomed to be cut. --- The term "overtaking on curves" is quite apt, but in the second half, it's still about capital and luck; technology is just the foundation.
