Worth remembering which perspectives proved prescient during this cycle—and which ones fizzled out. Market history rewards patience over panic.

I was just saying, why do some people always get scared out and sell off quickly, haha

Where are all the people who were shouting about the crash back then now?

81,000 that night, watching a group of people scream and cut losses, I enjoyed the fattiest sandwich in the dark pool. History never rewards those who scream.

Back when it was at 81k, some people really got scared shitless, haha, but that's just how the game is—eliminating those without resolve.

It's the same old story, I heard it last year around this time too.

The panicked ones should have been eliminated long ago; this is the cruelty of the crypto world.

The winners who bought the dip have already jumped on board; those still hesitating are all cannon fodder.

Those who endured have all made money; the ones panicking now should be regretting it.

Always making money when bottom-fishing, always losing money when panicking and selling—this is the reality, isn't it?
