Here's an interesting comparison: in 2013, 10,000 BTC could only buy two pizzas; by 2024, one BTC can be exchanged for a Rolls-Royce. What do these two landmark points tell us? History doesn't repeat exactly, but the market's logic of rises and falls has been cycling— the problem is most people are stuck in the cycle, watching opportunities slip by.
Suppose ten years from now, BTC really reaches $1 million per coin. Looking back at the current position, you'll understand a principle: getting rich quickly never depends on luck. In simple terms, it’s about daring to buy during bear markets and knowing when to sell during bull markets. Throughout life, you're battling two emotions—fear and the anxiety of missing out.
There are too many stories of people in the crypto world losing everything. Here are some practical key points, all based on simple, memorable logic:
Don’t blindly buy the dip in a bear market. A 60% drop in BTC or a 90% crash in small altcoins are actually normal. Buying on the left side of the chart can easily lead to zero, so staying alive is the top priority.
Timing determines success or failure. Holding BTC from $30,000 to $200,000 yields only a 6x return, but if you master swing trading, leverage, and staking, achieving hundreds of times returns is entirely possible— the key is to stay disciplined.
The million-dollar goal isn’t that far away. Comparing to gold’s market cap, plus the 2 million BTC lost and the deflationary effect of four halving cycles, $1 million per coin is not just a fantasy.
After getting rich, you still need to protect your wealth. During bear markets, only buy BTC and avoid altcoins. You can consider a portfolio allocation like 60% spot, 20% leverage, and 20% stablecoins earning interest. Sell enough to cover five years of living expenses at each new high, then let the rest continue to snowball. Also, plan ahead for private key management, inheritance, and tax issues.
The window of opportunity is truly here: BTC has gained policy recognition, Wall Street has launched spot ETFs, and the bottom for policies, funds, and supply is in place. At this moment, realize one thing: the chance for wealth will ultimately only favor a few. Whether you buy BTC, ETH, or SOL now, the core is to recognize the trend, set up your strategy, and plan for the long term— someone may run fast alone, but a group can go much further.

Here we go again, with this set of talking points. Sounds nice, daring to buy in a bear market and knowing when to sell in a bull market. The real situation is that the biggest losers are these people.
One million dollars? I’d be surprised if it’s even 100 bucks.
Leverage, swing trading, earning interest—sounds like a hundredfold returns, but probably leads to even faster death, right?
Spot ETF can save the world? Wake up, more tools for cutting leeks.
Being alive is the top priority, that’s true. But then they switch to urging everyone to go all in—doesn’t that seem contradictory?
Five years’ worth of living expenses? No problem, but the key is to earn it first.
Even if the trend is right, you still need good luck—not everyone is that fortunate.

Sounds nice, but isn't it just gambling with a different name? I just want to ask, if that $1 million really comes in, how do you prove that you made it through "discipline" and not just good luck?

Same old story... I've heard it too many times, and what’s the result? Most people still get wiped out in the wave trading.
---
I just want to ask, how many people can really survive the bear market and hold on until the bull market? Easy to say, hard to do.
---
One million dollars? Ha, I believe it now. Anyway, come back in ten years and call me out.
---
Leverage plus staking... the risks are downplayed, acting like nothing's wrong.
---
The key is to recognize your own limits. Not everyone has the resolve to hold on.
---
I heard the window period talk back in 2021 too. Let’s see how those people are doing now.
---
People say only buy BTC during a bear market and avoid altcoins. Wasn’t that what everyone thought when they got in?
---
Listening to the idea of a snowball rolling is satisfying, but most people end up rolling into a pit.

The bear market bottom callers are all dead; only those who survive are qualified to make money.
---
One million dollars? Wake up, let's talk after you survive this cycle.
---
Hundredfold gains from swing trading? I've heard too many people boast about this, and in the end, they all go broke.
---
The key is to know when to sell. People holding onto coins without selling... just treat it as a bank deposit.
---
Has the policy bottom and capital bottom arrived? Why haven't I seen the main upward wave yet?
---
Private key inheritance tax... these things are more complicated than making money. Really?
---
60% spot, 20% leverage, 20% stablecoins. Can this setup really hold? That's nonsense.
---
Recognizing the trend sounds simple, but when the trend really arrives, you'll still be hesitating.
---
I love the saying that a group of people run far away, but in the crypto world, it's still about the law of the jungle.

From pizza to Rolls-Royce, I just want to ask, do you still hold those BTC?
