Crypto attracts everyone chasing quick wealth. The premise is simple—get in, make profits, get out. Yet reality tells a different story. Most investors lack the stomach to actually hold through volatility. They want the gains without the grind. That's the paradox: everyone dreams of crypto riches, but few possess the patience to see it through.

Exactly right, 90% of people are just thinking about getting rich overnight. When it actually drops 30%, they start to panic.

Basically, it's just not having enough mental resilience; there are very few who can truly withstand it.

This is a typical retail investor mentality. Before entering, everyone says they want to hold long-term, but as soon as it drops 20%, they immediately give up. I’ve always said that on-chain data doesn’t lie. Those who can't hold on until the bottom consensus will eventually have to cut their losses.

There are too many armchair strategists; few can survive through three bear markets.
