You really have to learn to be patient in the BTC space. Yesterday I got impulsive and went all-in with 5u on a few shitcoin projects, and they all turned out to be worthless. Today, my account was down to just 0.8, so I bought a meme coin just to see what would happen, and unexpectedly it shot up 18x.
Thinking back, if I had just held back yesterday and not rushed in, that 5 bucks could have easily turned into over a hundred by now. There aren’t opportunities in the market every day; you should only make a move when the time is right, otherwise you’re just handing money over to the project teams. I guess this time I paid for a lesson—the value of patience is greater than luck.

Hahaha, this is exactly the gambler's paradox. With only 0.8 left in the account, flipping it to 18 times means it's not about patience at all, just an incredible stroke of luck.

Haha, seriously, there's no cure for late-stage itchy hands. I lost big last time because of this too.

Haha, this is crypto. Turning 0.8 into 18 times, but yesterday's 5u is gone. Truly ironic.

Haha, this luck is unbelievable. Turned 0.8 into 18 times that—this is the true king of luck!

ngl, this is just survivorship bias wrapped in a lucky trade. dude got decimated then caught one moonshot and suddenly patience is the lesson? technically speaking, the real vulnerability here is treating random 18x gains as strategy instead of what it actually is—pure luck surface dressed up as wisdom.

Haha, turning 0.8 yuan into 18 times that—what luck... But I bet 5 yuan you'll still get itchy hands next time.
