Been through crypto for seven years now. People ask if it's luck—honestly, it's never been about that.

Long game is won by showing up consistently, even when charts turn ugly. You take the hits, learn from the wreckage, rebuild. Repeat.

Trust? That's earned the hard way. Brick by brick. Every decision you don't make in panic, every position you hold through the noise—that's what compounds into confidence.

Seven years in, I'm still here because I stopped looking for shortcuts. The ones who make it rarely get lucky. They just refuse to quit.

This guy is so right; being here for seven years is a victory. But honestly, I've seen too many people go all-in before their third year and fail. Persistence in this game is not something everyone can do. --- Not making a move during panic moments—that's truly a watershed. Most people collapse at that moment. --- There are no shortcuts; you have to exchange your blood, sweat, and tears. --- Seven years, just thinking about those drops in value makes me crazy. It's truly not easy to survive until now. --- Rather than luck, it's better to say it's psychological resilience. Having seen so many big drops, I’ve become more calm. --- Refuse to quit—it's easy to say, but it's hell to do. I only know a few who have truly endured. --- This is real compound interest; it's not about account numbers, but about mental accumulation. --- It feels like it's saying "live long enough to win," but the premise is that you have to keep living.

Makes sense. Those who endured the crashes in 2018 and 2022 are truly tough players. Not messing around or holding on stubbornly, but instead earning the most...

Sticking with it for seven years sounds impressive, but how many can truly survive a few bear markets? There are far more people who say they don't look for shortcuts.

Damn, it's been seven years and they still haven't run away. This guy is really something.

Honestly, there aren't many who have been around for seven years, but I think this guy missed one point — luck also plays a role. Those who survived 2018 are truly tough; their mindset is indeed similar. The logic isn't flawed, but it does sound a bit like success psychology. To put it simply, you still need to withstand psychological fluctuations; most people fail because of their emotions.
