This text was written by netizen 999 in 2021. It talks about hoarding Bitcoin.
This text has disappeared from the internet along with the closure of his Weibo account.
Today I found it, hoping it helps you.
The following is the main text:
In the world of Bitcoin, the fluctuations of the market, the collision of opinions, and the various strange characters appearing one after another are all sceneries that are bound to happen on this road. Perhaps when first entering the market, these fluctuations may surprise or even confuse people. But after seeing more, one gets used to it. Many things are difficult to change in the short term, but from the perspective of Bitcoin's underlying logic, these obstacles and voices will eventually be changed over time.
What can we do? The answer has always been simple: be the best version of ourselves.
I have thought many times, why is it that when we speak the truth, no one believes us? The reason is not complicated; it is because we are not strong enough. If that is the case, we can only silently improve ourselves. This world will not reward you for speaking the truth; only when you are strong enough to be ignored will your words be heard.
In the crypto circle, many 'gods' have had their personas collapse. In the world of Bitcoin, there is no need for gods. I once particularly enjoyed watching Teacher Li's motivational talks, which were very helpful for my growth. But later, when he stood for various coins, his image collapsed in my mind. The same goes for Elon Musk. As a space enthusiast, I have always admired him, dreaming of accumulating coins, even hoping to launch my own rocket one day, perhaps even visit Mars. But in these past two months, a different side of him has been revealed to the public.
This is why I have always been skeptical of anyone in the crypto circle, except for those hoarding coins who have been validated by time over a complete cycle. Many outwardly supportive Bitcoin advocates actually do not understand Bitcoin at all.
I am a patriot, and I also hope that national policymakers can understand Bitcoin more. Bitcoin is not our enemy; its goal is to break the dollar's monopoly. Unfortunately, we have missed many opportunities. Suppressing Bitcoin will not stop its progress; in the future, when Bitcoin achieves comprehensive success, looking back, today's suppressors may be nailed to the pillar of shame by history.
But none of this affects my optimism for the future. Beautiful things are ultimately unstoppable, no matter how convoluted the process, the wheels of history keep rolling forward.
I firmly believe that people will eventually realize the value of Bitcoin. Hoarding Bitcoin, with the original intention unchanged.
Bitcoin is a mirror, and also an amplifier. Your kindness and your evil will be magnified.
It is a mirror that reveals the truth, whether divine or demonic, all will be exposed upon entry. Some selflessly dedicate themselves without seeking fame or profit, and Satoshi Nakamoto is the best example. He has never used the Bitcoin he holds, and even chose to leave when Bitcoin began to succeed.
It is precisely because of Satoshi Nakamoto's理念 and values that countless people have devoted themselves to the Bitcoin事业 without expecting anything in return. Even if they receive rewards, that is what they deserve.
The power of Bitcoin lies in that it 'does not belong to anyone,' or rather, 'it belongs to everyone.' This is true decentralization.
Of course, decentralization is not a panacea; many things do not need to be decentralized. But in terms of resilience, nothing is stronger than decentralization. Bitcoin was designed from the very beginning to withstand state-level attacks. In contrast, what can individual attacks amount to?
No amount of setbacks can prevent us from using our own hard-earned money to hoard Bitcoin, can it? No matter how high other coins rise, can it change our determination to hoard coins?
As long as we continue to grow stronger, continue to create wealth, and continue to use Bitcoin to store wealth, the future of Bitcoin is in our own hands.
When the storm passes and everything returns to calm, those who create chaos will ultimately be remembered in infamy, while Bitcoin will still be that Bitcoin.
Hoard Bitcoin, continue to watch the show.
