People be like, “I’ve been in crypto for 10 years.” It’s supposed to be a flex. But when you think about it, it either means you didn’t make it, or you have nowhere else to go, both pretty sad realities.

People continue to be in Crypto because in order to make it honestly, you need to get pretty mentally hurt. I have a billion places to go but I won't fit in because I don't like people, I don't like crowd, I don't like to socialise. I can't do small talks. I get bored pretty easily and only looking at the charts can make me feel sane. I spend time on Twitter, telegram my mum and with my Niece 24*7. I have nothing else.

I've had the same insurer for 25 years, and I don't particularly like them, so I'd say it's only been 10 years in the crypto world.

It's one of those things truth be known! 1st bullrun lost doe ,2nd bullrun round tripped so this 3rd bullrun stacked and ready to apply successful exit strategy. Peace be upon all those in this a decade.

Don’t understand this statement at all. I’ve held bitcoin for nearly 10 years. Never sold. Have started companies and invested in stocks, real estate, etc. However, I’m still here investing in crypto because so far, it’s still been one of my best investments. Trying to figure out what you mean by this post??

10 years is only a flex if the stack got better. otherwise you just watched the casino for a decade.

Longevity sounds impressive until you ask what changed during those ten years.
