In the past ten years, many people around me told me that Bitcoin would rise to 100,000 US dollars. There were many people who told me that Bitcoin would reach 100,000 US dollars when Bitcoin was only a few thousand US dollars. In theory, they should have made a fortune, but to be honest, most of them did not make this money.
Generally, there are several situations. The first type is the player who talks nonsense. Every time we discuss an issue, he has the most firm opinion and the clearest attitude. He swears to the sky that Bitcoin can reach 100,000, and if it doesn't, he will eat shit on live broadcast. Most of these people finally found out that none of them bought it. They were just talking nonsense. They just pretended to be cool at the dinner table for fun. There are many such players on the Internet. They know everything, but they just don't buy it.
The second type is the radical player. They are very sure that Bitcoin can break 100,000 US dollars with a rise, so every time it rises, they will increase leverage to break through, mortgage loans and add a hundred times leverage to buy coins, and then fail to break through, and hold on, and a big drop will return to zero. In the past ten years, many big investors died in this way. They saw the result correctly, but died in the process. Quite a lot.
The third type is the rebels. There are not many, but there are also many. People with firm beliefs are not easy to change their beliefs. However, the disadvantage is that once they change their beliefs, they will completely abandon the past. There are countless coins on the road of Bitcoin's growth, and there are also people who claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto. For example, Australian Satoshi of BSV, many people believe in BSV, exchange all the Bitcoins on hand for BSV, and then wait for BSV to break through.
The fourth type is more tragic. The coins are lost or stolen. There are actually quite a lot of such. Decentralization is theoretically very safe, but in fact it is very unsafe. Many passwords, private keys, and mnemonics that you think you will never forget. In fact, in two or three years of bear market, you will forget them completely and can't remember them at all. In the end, you can only regret day and night facing the huge numbers in your wallet. In addition, the development of hacker technology in decentralized wallets in recent years, even if you use a cold wallet, you can still be stolen by scams. Therefore, the results of investment are often macro problems, and making money is an individual micro problem. Therefore, even if the macro is certain, many people often fall behind in the micro.
