Here’s what I’ve learned: Bitcoin doesn’t reward certainty. It rewards resilience. Crashes aren’t anomalies, they are part of the design of an emerging asset class.
The real divide in crypto is simple: * Some people react to volatility * Others recognize it as the cost of a long-term opportunity
Zoom out long enough, and the question shifts from: “Will it crash again?” to “Who will still be here when it recovers?”

Bitcoin $BTC has crashed.
Not once.
Not twice.
But every cycle.
And each time, the same story repeats:
“It's over.”
“This time is different.”
“Crypto is dead.”
Yet history keeps leaving receipts.
📉 2011: $32 → $2
📉 2013–14: $1,150 → $200
📉 2017–18: $19,700 → $3,200
📉 2021–22: $69,000 → $15,500
📉 2025: ~$120,000 → ~$65,000
