Dark Horse Breakthroughs

Found its own rhythm in a restless market

I have to be honest, I’ve been optimistic about this project all along. On various platforms and communities, I’ve cheered for it many times. But to be frank, recently I’ve also been shouting "Come and save this position."

The holding experience is indeed uncomfortable. Having experienced two drops of 2M level, I’ve never stopped thinking about liquidating. Especially today, when it dropped to 1.3, my psychological defenses really started to crack. In that moment, I truly felt that the previous optimism had become a joke, and the desire to give up was stronger than ever.

But I looked at the trading timeline — it’s only four days.

Four days of volatility seem fierce, but what does it mean in a longer cycle? Often, the market’s test isn’t about every shake in price, but whether you can endure that moment when you most want to give up.

You want to persuade me to cut in four days? I bet on my mindset.

Did you really break people's mentality in just four days? I saw through this wave during the 24h K-line early on. On-chain data shows that big players are accumulating, so hold tight with confidence. --- It was indeed scary back then at 1.3, but I had already transferred the main positions into multi-signature wallets, so my psychological pressure was instantly eliminated. --- Two 2M dips without selling indicate that your risk control is decent, but I suggest adjusting your asset allocation ratio next time. --- The real test is to see who can stay calm and analyze on-chain data during negative emotions, rather than being driven by sentiment. --- Having gone through this and not selling means you still have confidence in the fundamentals—that's the true nature of value investing. --- What is four days? I've seen a one-week drop to half and then recover. The key is not to throw your chips into exchanges; managing your private keys yourself is the way to go. --- The worst thing is not smashing to 1.3, but if your wallet is still linked to leveraged contracts when it hits 1.3, then it's truly hopeless.

Data shows that 98.7% of holders who can withstand four days of volatility end up liquidating. Interestingly, everyone thinks they are among the 3%. Ironically, every time a new low is hit, someone says it's a test. The question is, how did the project that said that last time perform? Four days? In the bubble cycles I've seen, that's not enough to recover even half of the principal. Objectively speaking, I've heard the phrase "endure the most difficult moments" hundreds of times since 2018. But what was the result? Can we get some data to support this dark horse logic? Or is it just another project surviving on storytelling? Interesting—two 2M crashes and people are still waiting for a rebound. That psychological resilience is truly extraordinary.

Four days and already crying for help, this mentality needs some fixing, buddy. --- Should have known not to look at the minute chart; a good sleep and everything would be gone. --- Those who persist are making money, while the timid are still regretting. --- Crash the defense line at 1.3? We need to learn to fall in love with the price. --- That's right, but I still wake up in the middle of the night to check the K-line... --- Endure it and you'll be a winner. That's what they say, but my fingers want to hit the sell button. --- A black horse definitely requires patience, but this patience really tests human nature. --- The day before yesterday, I was hyping it up; today, I want to clear my position. This is us. --- Four days of volatility, so what? The real question is whether there's staying power. --- Looking at this copy, you're trying to comfort yourself again, huh.

Collapsed in just four days, brother, your perspective is too narrow. Only by enduring the hardest times can you see the dawn. Crash to 1.3? Just the right opportunity to buy the dip. It's easy to say give up, but few can actually hold on. Psychological defenses need to be reinforced by yourself.

You want me to run in just four days? Dream on. I'm really about to break down, but thinking about it, there's nothing really to fear. The idea of clearing out my holdings has come up a hundred times, but I haven't acted on it—this must be what gambling is about. Honestly, it all depends on whether you can get through this stressful period.
