I've been in the cryptocurrency space for almost ten years now. Apart from the first two years when I struggled with insomnia, the fluctuations in the market over the years have had no impact on my sleep. However, today, I couldn't sleep.

It's only been a little over a month since Bitcoin peaked at $126,000 and has now retraced to $88,000. To return to that level, it would require nearly a 50% increase. Such a rapid decline is truly alarming, and even more concerning is that the U.S. stock market is still at a high point.

Lying in bed, I tossed and turned, unable to sleep. On October 6th, the day Bitcoin hit its new high, my personal total assets also reached a historic high. I was so close—just a tiny bit🤏—to crossing into another class of wealth, but I still got greedy and didn’t sell! Sometimes I wonder, even if I crossed that threshold, would I liquidate? The answer is definitely no. So when will I liquidate? Perhaps at $300,000, maybe at $1,000,000, or even $5,000,000. But most likely, I will never sell, because one really doesn't need a lot of cash; all you need is a line of numbers, and that's it!

Since that public buy-in in 2022, I haven’t purchased Bitcoin again, nor have I sold any digital assets. I've just held on firmly. Since I believe in it, why should I care about short-term fluctuations? It's no big deal to miss another bull market. From 2016 until now, haven’t I been missing out on bull markets all along? It seems that since then, I haven't sold any Bitcoin, and after 2022, I haven’t shorted Bitcoin either.

Perhaps there aren’t many who persist like me, which might be seen as foolish, but who can really say? Maybe I just want to comfort myself. $BTC
