Every year has opportunities belonging to that era.
In 2017, Cardano was born, and I missed it. In 2018, the Binance ecosystem took off, and I missed it. In 2019, Chainlink connected the future, and I missed it. In 2020, Polkadot broke through the cross-chain ecosystem, and I missed it. In 2021, Shiba Inu sparked a trend, and I missed it. In 2022, GMX redefined DEX, and I missed it. In 2023, Bonk exploded in the Solana ecosystem, and I missed it. In 2024, Dogwifhat had a wild celebration, and I missed it. In 2025, Trump coin also became a legend, and I missed it.
What about the story of 2026? This time, don’t miss it again.
Each cycle repeats the same script—early awareness and early deployment, hindsight after the fact. Those seemingly crazy choices are often the keys to the next wave of gains. The key is whether you can spot it before the opportunity becomes a trend.

Here we go again with this routine, every year it's "Don't miss out again," just like last year. And what happened? How many people can truly spot opportunities before the trend takes off? Aren't they all just talking after the fact?

Here we go again with this set of words. Can we really not miss it this time? Haha

Oh no, it's the same old story, they can come up with this every year.

Really, it's always the same routine. After looking at this list, I feel like a gambler, always the one playing the armchair strategist after the fact.

After listening to this "Missed Opportunity Theory" routine for so many years, let me see what the data says—what is the actual long-term holding return ratio for the projects listed?
Technically speaking, the opportunity cost is never about missing a certain coin, but about the choices made when chasing high prices.

To be honest, I'm tired of this set of scripts. Every year it's "Don't miss out again," but what happens? Most people are still chasing the high. Instead of waiting for the "opportunity" in 2026, it's better to seize the current trend first.

Uh, isn't this just the ultimate version of hindsight bias? Missing out every year and then being able to buy the dip in 2026? Alright, I believe you.

They're starting to spread anxiety again, same old words every year...
