In her early years, an old lady had some spare money, so she bought a few pieces of gold in advance and hid them away.

Others thought she didn’t need to, and even mocked her: “Buying this so expensive now—there’ll be plenty of chances later.”

But she was thinking simply: money will keep growing, while truly scarce things won’t just increase out of thin air.

Many things look very expensive when you look at them from the present, but when you view them within the broader trend, they may only be the early stage of price discovery.

This principle also holds for Bitcoin.

The 21 million coin cap won’t change, while fiat money supply will always face long-term pressure to expand.

What really matters isn’t trying to guess the next candlestick, but understanding the long-term supply-and-demand logic.

What stings is this—if this trend continues, in the next bear market we may truly find it hard to see BTC again below $100,000.

So don’t always focus on buying at the lowest point.
Understand the trend—it's more important than trying to predict the price.
