Something I heard in a group chat. A guy works in cross-border logistics, handling customs declarations near Bao’an Airport. He spends every day working on shipments until midnight. Back in 2021, he helped a client set up a wallet and casually collected a few hundred yuan in gas fees. In return, the client tossed him a bunch of unwanted NFT whitelist spots—two profile pictures. He just dropped them into a little fox wallet and nearly forgot the password.

Last summer, his shop was short by a few tens of thousands of yuan, so he rummaged around and dug up that wallet. He saw the two pictures were still sitting there. Annoyed that nothing had happened for over half a year, he listed them cheap and sold them, scraping together a few tens of thousands to tide him over. After selling, he even told people, “This stuff’s worth less than paper. At least paper can prop up a table leg.”

A while ago, someone in the group asked to see those two pictures. He logged back in and took a look—the floor price had already soared to six figures apiece. He held it in for ages in the group chat, then finally said, “Let’s just say I bought them, got to live with them for a while, and rented them out.”

If it had been you, with a few hundred yuan of pocket money back then, could you have held on until that day? Or would you have sold as soon as you needed to balance the books? Have you ever sold a coin too early?
