One of the biggest mistakes people make in crypto is thinking time in the market is the same as discipline in the market.

Holding through everything sounds brave on paper. In reality, most people panic sell bottoms, over-leverage tops, and only zoom out after damage is done.

The real edge isn’t prediction.

It’s structure.

Knowing when you’re investing vs speculating.

Knowing how much downside you can tolerate before emotions take control.

Knowing when doing nothing is the best trade.

Markets transfer money from impatience to patience, but only if patience is paired with risk management. Blind conviction without a plan isn’t strength, it’s exposure.

Cycles reward those who survive long enough to participate in the next one. Not every move needs action. Not every dip is an opportunity. Not every pump needs chasing.

Protect capital first.

Opportunities always return.

DYOR. Stay sharp.
