A shift in investment decision-making is worth reflecting on. When I initially bought a leading coin, it wasn't based on hype speculation, but rather because I felt it was being pushed down by FUD. At that time, I was quite confident and wanted to continue adding to my position while observing. But then I saw some trash coins being able to reach a market cap of 40-50 million USD, which instead shook my confidence in long-term holdings.

Looking back, this change in mindset is actually quite interesting. If even coins with little fundamental support can reach such valuations, then leading projects with a complete ecosystem and real applications are relatively undervalued. The current market trend has pushed high-quality projects at the bottom and pure concept coins to roughly the same level, which in itself indicates the growth potential of leading projects. Sometimes, making decisions requires recognizing the opportunities brought by this market imbalance.

It's during the dizzying moments that it's easiest to make mistakes. When trash coins take off, it makes people doubt their own judgment.

Garbage coins can have a market cap of 50 million USD, yet the leading ones are actually wavering? This mindset definitely needs to be fixed.

Garbage coins can reach a market cap of hundreds of millions, and the leading ones are still here. Isn't this the best signal for bottom fishing?

Garbage coins can reach $50 million, while the leading ones are actually wavering... Looking at this logic from the opposite perspective is an opportunity, the data is right here.

Shitcoins can be inflated to a market cap of hundreds of millions, yet the leading projects remain inactive? Isn't this just solid evidence of undervaluation? --- Speaking of which, mindset is the easiest thing to betray oneself. --- It's probably greed at play. Seeing others' air coins take off, I start to doubt my own choices. --- Leading projects have fundamentals and ecosystems. Why are their valuations still lower than those purely conceptual ones? That logic doesn't hold up. --- This market has indeed leveled the playing field between quality and trash coins. On the flip side, this is an opportunity. --- I've also experienced this psychological battle, but in the end, I persisted. Now it seems worth it. --- If your confidence in your holdings wavers, it means you didn't do enough homework early on. You need to see through the logic behind this market imbalance.

conviction wavering when trash hits $50m mcap is peak retail energy ngl. but yeah, the fork readiness here is real - if shitcoins get consensus on valuation, your battle-tested fundamentals still got upside. market's just being inefficient, not broken.
