You didn't miss the opportunity, but rather the ability to 'understand' it.
The cryptocurrency world is never short of opportunities; every few months there is a narrative: new public chains, new concepts, new airdrops, new bull coins... But you always miss out, then regret, feel anxious, and blame yourself. The truth is, you didn't miss the opportunity, but rather the ability to understand it.
Most people cannot comprehend the value of projects, do not understand market logic, and only realize 'oh, it actually increased this much' when a coin rises. What you are chasing is not the trend, but the hype; what you are following is not faith, but emotion.
To seize opportunities, the prerequisite is that you must have sufficient understanding. And the foundation of understanding is continuous learning, building models, and summarizing experiences. The earlier you establish your own judgment system, the more you can ambush when others do not understand, and reap rewards when others are frantic.
The cryptocurrency world is not a game of speed, but a game of cognition. Running fast is not as good as seeing accurately; seeing accurately is not as good as holding steady. And all of this depends on whether you truly 'understand'.
Real opportunities are never about chasing what you see, but about seizing what you understand.
