The market won't be gentle with you. When the surrounding voices are unanimously opposed, when everyone is obstructing, and doubts surge like a tide—what can you do then?

People holding ETH have seen countless times of "This time really will go to zero." SOL has also experienced many moments of being heavily shorted. But the choices made by true investors during these times often determine the subsequent outcome.

The issue isn't what others say, but whether you truly believe in the logic you see. Are you willing to take that step you are convinced is "right" even at the risk of being shattered to pieces?

This is not motivational talk. Anyone who has been active in this market for a long time understands— the hardest decisions are never made amidst applause.

ETH0.98%

SOL0.64%

That's right, it's all about endurance mentality. The ones around me who have made money are actually those who dared to add positions while others were cursing and criticizing.

There's nothing wrong with that, but to be honest, most people simply don't have the mental resilience to gamble. The seemingly confident logic is just paper-thin in the face of a decline.

Honestly, I've heard so many times that it's going to reset, I've become immune to it. Now I actually think the more noise there is, the more opportunity there is.

honestly the whole "trust your conviction" thing hits different when you're watching gwei spike to 200+ and everyone's screaming sell... that's when you really find out who actually read the charts vs who just follows discord vibes. been there with eth at $800, watched the panic, did nothing. best non-decision i ever made tbh

That's quite true, but when that moment actually comes, most people still chicken out. I've seen quite a few who sing "Always Believe," and when it drops 20%, they immediately run away. Uh, really, it's about seeing people's true character in critical moments.
