When I was transferring accounts, I suddenly realized something—those "zombie holdings" I had long given up on actually rebounded collectively. Especially FIL, which stubbornly pulled the entire small position from the bottom back up, doubling in value. This feeling is more exciting than chasing high and hitting the daily limit, and it also made me seriously think about what exactly happened behind the scenes.
It's a bit embarrassing to say. During the crazy market frenzy in the first half of the year, I threw 500U into the public chain sector, purely following the trend. In just a month, it grew to $15,000, and I was floating on cloud nine, truly believing I had found the secret to wealth. As the tide receded quickly, the market started to decline, and I took profits when I saw signs of a downturn, gradually cashing out, leaving only $1,000 in a few outdated hot coins that had plummeted a hundredfold—basically betting on an extreme rebound, but I didn't hold much hope.
When I reviewed my account last month, this part of the holdings was down to just over $300, completely wiped out. I simply labeled them as "sunk costs," pretending they didn't exist, planning to let them lie dormant in the account. Who knew that today, while organizing assets, I would be stunned. FIL's surge became the lifeline for the entire small portfolio, pulling it up from the bottom and earning more than double the profit.
Many people might say this is luck. But after years of navigating the market, I have to be honest: this wave of FIL's rebound is not accidental. The underlying logic of the decentralized storage sector still holds, and the cyclical fluctuations of market sentiment continue to verify this. For ordinary investors, this market cycle is actually a reminder—sometimes, the real profit opportunities are hidden in corners most people have forgotten.
