Have you noticed that now, when a project reaches a 50M market cap, everyone is praising your keen eye? But if we go back a year or more, a 50M project was truly the point where people couldn't sit still and frequently checked the charts—FOMO time. In this cycle, projects over 100M are appearing more and more often, and the market's "sensitivity threshold" has clearly risen.

There's a saying that hits hard: the market has ups and downs, but time always favors long-termism. Everyone understands this principle, and history has proven it over and over again. The real challenge is—when you’re truly caught up in the volatility, feeling anxious and restless, can you stay calm and not be driven by emotions?

Think about those who have endured multiple cycles; their greatness isn’t about how accurately they predicted, but about their resilience—the ability to stay calm amid turbulence and stick to principles amid temptation. Growth begins right here.

50M now being hyped as unique insight? Laughable, last year it was the nightmare of daily trading Inflation, everything has depreciated You're right but useless; when volatility hits, no one can hold on Discipline is something you only appreciate after experiencing it

50m is no longer enough; now it's rolled into nine figures. That's true, but it's really damn hard to do. I'm the kind of person who gets shaken out by fluctuations and can't find a way. Discipline, to put it simply, is whether you dare to really invest money during the dip. People who endure cycles may not have the best vision, but they definitely have strong psychological resilience. This wave of market conditions has made me realize one thing: the higher the sensitivity threshold, the harder it is for small investors to make money.

Honestly, 50M is really not a big deal anymore. Everyone can see how severe the inflation is. But the issue of resolve you mentioned is indeed the Achilles' heel for most people; I often mess up myself. --- Every round, people say they are long-term oriented, but as soon as it drops 3%, they start frantically cutting losses. This psychological game is really not that simple. --- People who have endured several cycles are indeed tough, but maybe it's just good luck. Who can truly guarantee their judgments are completely correct? --- Raising the market sensitivity threshold is a good observation, but it still feels too idealistic. --- Having strong resolve is great, but the anxiety during losses is really hard to kill. Relying solely on mentality can't hold up. --- Those still stubbornly below 50M—are they truly determined or just trapped? Even they might not know themselves. --- Instead of spouting so much motivational talk, it's better to be straightforward—most people simply can't endure more than two cycles. That’s the reality.

50M is no longer enough; this round is really getting intense. That's right, mindset is the biggest asset, I truly understand. Both long-termism and perseverance sound simple, but it's extremely difficult to actually do. Projects that were worth 50M last year now seem laughable; sensitivity has definitely been heightened quite a bit. The ones who truly make money are never those chasing every rise; staying steady is winning. Perseverance is something, those who have lost money understand it best.
