Moonboy here speaking: Patience is key and I'm sure other initial believers in crypto will tell you the same, it's not so much the profits (it's really nice side effect though 
) but more of what these coins can do for society.
Get in now or get in later, either way the train doesn't seem to be stopping. Sure a few rest stops along the way, but it's still going.

The guys from crypto wave 1 (2010-2012) had a chance to become billionaires today.
The guys from crypto wave 2 (2013-2017) had a chance to become millionaires today.
We're currently in crypto wave 3 now, and the guys from waves 1 & 2 are up-scaling to trillionaires and billionaires over the next 5 years.
Someone getting into crypto today can still make good money, but most will lose it all, the golden age is over.
I'm pretty sure holding 1 BTC or a decent amount of other coins could still be a life changing amount of money for most. Sure it´s getting harder to find the gems and make enormous amounts in a short time. But still it might be the chance of a lifetime
I agree, there are still plenty of opportunties for life changing returns, but not without doing some research work, and the risks are much higher now. Buying 1BTC might return 100K in a couple of years, but it might also return zero, BCH could take over in a flippening, or any number of other things could send BTC to zero. That's why I think the easy riches (i.e. millions and up) is basically over, the guys making big returns now need to work pretty hard, following up to 50 projects, the days of hodling bitcoins and expecting to come back in 3 years time and find you're rich is gone, but in 2010 that stuff happened, like it did for the original NEM 'interested' guys who got a FREE stake worth a lot of $$ today.
