patience pays off in crypto—this isn't just a motto, it's historical fact. The ones who actually got rich didn't time the market perfectly; they just stuck around when others panicked.

Holding through volatility separates the patient from the impatient. Whether it's Bitcoin and Ethereum—the foundational layer—or diversifying into layer-1 chains like Solana, Avalanche, and Cardano, the key isn't *what* you buy but *how long* you hold it.

Even mid-cap players like BNB have delivered serious returns for long-term believers. The altcoin space? That's where compounding gets spicy, but it demands conviction.

So real question: what's your core holding strategy right now? Are you stacking the majors, rotating into layer-1s, or fishing the altcoin waters? Drop what's in your portfolio.

Really, after surviving a few crashes, I realize this phrase is not just empty talk.

To be honest, the ones who truly make money are those who can resist watching the market. I am just a rookie level market watcher... I can't hold it anymore. When it drops, I want to cut; when it rises, I regret not buying more. With this mentality, I would have been wiped out after a few altcoins.

That's right, only those who endure the sharp decline can laugh last.

That's right, the key is to hold on and not sell. Last year, I was holding a bunch of Solana, and when it dropped, I really wanted to sell. Now I realize that it's all about perseverance.
