Yeah you are right, because the way I see it, just saying I’ve been holding Bitcoin for years doesn’t really paint the full picture if the stack itself is too small to make a real difference. There are people who have been holding since 2018, but when you check, it is barely a few hundred or may be thousands dollars worth, and in reality the profit is nice but not life changing.
Meanwhile, someone who entered just 3 or 4 years ago with a solid stack ends up way ahead of them. That is why I agree that size and time must go hand in hand, you can’t focus on only one and ignore the other. The smart play is to combine patience with consistent stacking, because that way even if you start small, over time your bag grows into something meaningful, and when the bull run comes, the rewards will actually feel worth the wait…
One major mistake some investors make is that they only think about short term profit, some focus on what they might gain in the next two or three months. They forget that the real value of investing is in the future. The sacrifices we put in today are what to bring the true rewards. Bitcoin is along term investment, that needs patience and a clear mind above quick profits.
Many people have been holding Bitcoin for years, but some still don’t see huge profits because their accumulation has been small or inconsistent. On the other hand, someone who started just two years ago could be holding more than a guy who has been in the journey for 7 years, just because their plan was not different. That’s why consistency in accumulation always matters more than how long you have been in the market.
So many people always talk about how long they have stay in , but rarely realize how much they have actually invest along the way. the duration alone does not do the big deal it is what you do with that duration, DCA with intention stay in the game and let compounding conviction do their work. the bull run only rewards what you have actually built up and not how long we have been lurking
