In the crypto market, the true factor that widens the gap between the rich and the poor is never short-term speculative gains, but rather the mindset to hold steady.

Some people dream of seeing mainstream coins hit new highs—like BNB breaking through 100k. But the distance from dream to wealth often stalls at a very simple point: holding on.

Market fluctuations test everyone. Cutting losses during a downturn is instinctive, and chasing highs during an uptrend is also instinctive. The real challenge is staying clear-headed in the face of these instincts. Few people stick to long-termism because it requires enduring short-term uncertainty. And this rarity is often the source of reward.

Speculators pursue quick gains, while long-termists wait for the power of compound interest. The difference between the two is not intelligence, but determination.
