I may have been later to bitcoin than HODL but I have stacked with every ounce of my earning potential since 2021. Religiously. I have made this investment in bitcoin not only the significant majority allocation of my portfolio but it is a huge piece of my identity. I have defended it to family, friends, acquaintances, and colleagues and when they laughed at me, ridiculed me, or ghosted me I have chosen my conviction over capitulating for their acceptance.
For those who haven’t done something similar, you won’t reap the rewards I will reap. You won’t deserve those rewards until you find a similar conviction and embrace the “risk” I have embraced every day for the last 3.5 years.
I’m not bitter about my timing to the bitcoin party … it was the only time that worked for me and my family … but I am intolerant towards those who proclaim I don’t deserve the success I have coming.
