In 2015, spending $10,000 to buy ETH and then holding it until now, the account multiplied 20,000 times to become $200 million. Sounds simple enough - just hold on and do nothing.
But after truly looking at one's own K-line chart, one understands that this is not an easy task at all.
Look at this process. From the peak to the bottom, and then climbing up from the bottom, it's a repeated mental interrogation. Can you tolerate when 1 million turns into 390,000? When 30 million in profits instantly drops to only 1.2 million, can you remain still?
This is the truth about long-term holding - no matter how much you earn in numbers, you have to go through countless death-like trials psychologically. The final question is just one: can you really hold on?

At the moment when it fell from 30 million to 1.2 million, it directly broke people's defenses. Don't even mention holding on, they probably already dumped and did a Rug Pull, haha.
