Don't remind me again today

NBA legend Anthony recently revealed a troubling matter in an interview: a few years ago, he was actually quite optimistic about Crypto Assets and was ready to get on board and test the waters. However, his fren advised him against it, saying, "that stuff is unreliable" and "the bubble will burst sooner or later," and he took their advice to heart, ultimately watching the bull run slip through his fingers. Looking back now, Anthony said he "wishes he could slap himself twice."



This matter is actually quite magical. A sports superstar with a net worth of tens of millions, who has experienced great storms, can actually be made hesitant by the "good-hearted advice" from those around him. To put it bluntly, on the road of investment, what often truly holds you back is not a lack of money or insufficient information, but rather the pile of fears in your own mind, along with those "well-meaning" prejudices from others.

The current encryption market is no longer the "casino" of wild growth that it used to be. Traditional institutions are eager to get on board, and the regulatory framework in the U.S. is gradually becoming clearer. Crypto Assets are becoming a regular option for asset allocation. Data shows that 57% of investors are already using it as a tool for risk diversification. Those who still view it as "air" may really need to reassess their perspective.

So what should ordinary people do? Here are a few practical suggestions:

Don't be foolish and wait for the "perfect entry point". Bitcoin just rebounded from around $80,000 to $91,000, and the market fluctuates every day. If you insist on waiting for the lowest point to take action, it basically means you will be watching forever. It's better to buy in batches to spread the risk.

Newbies should focus on core assets first. Bitcoin and Ethereum, these "blue-chip coins," are relatively stable. Don't rush into those flashy small coins right away. The hot trends rotate too quickly, and chasing the highs can easily make you a bag holder.

Just use spare money to test the waters. Anthony's problem lies in "either believe completely or not at all". We ordinary people can invest a bit of money that doesn't affect our lives regularly, which allows us to keep up with the trend without too much pressure.

Furthermore, in terms of the overall market environment, the probability of the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates in December has soared to 85%. Once liquidity is relaxed, the Crypto Assets market is likely to迎来新一轮爆发. Stories like Anthony's "regret story" are spreading wider, which will instead attract more hesitant frens to get on board.

Looking back five years from now, do you want to slap your thigh and say, "If only I had bought back then," or would you prefer to smile as your account balance has increased several times? Share in the comments what your first "get rich quick opportunity" was that you missed?

This guy Anthony is really a living example of what not to do. He was persuaded by a few words from his fren, and he still has a fortune of k. To be honest, I have experienced this too; I was cowardly back then, and now looking back, I regret it deeply.

Anthony is really something, he listened to his fren's advice and gave up, later he must have regretted it to the core, haha. But to be honest, everyone has been dissuaded by others at some point, I was too back then, and now every time I look at the Candlestick I want to smash my phone. The key is not to let others' fears dictate your decisions, you have to think for yourself.

Anthony's story is truly remarkable; with a fortune of millions, he still let a friend's words deter him... What does this indicate? It's just that people are afraid of public opinion. Listening to advice and missing out on a bull run is the most expensive lesson; DCAing in batches will never be wrong.

Anthony is truly a living example of what not to do; he was scared off by others' opinions and gave up on the opportunity for a hundredfold return, and now it's too late to regret. In fact, retail investors have this problem; they are always infected by the fear of those around them, leading to many missed opportunities.

Anthony really nailed this, he was persuaded by his fren to give up a few hundred million possibilities, it cracked me up haha I totally understand being Tied Up by listening to people around you, but having spare money for Auto-Invest is indeed the only solution.

Anthony's situation is really incredible; listening to his frens' advice made him miss out, which is a typical case of "what's good for you in others' mouths." I was also like that; back in the day, a buddy urged me not to get into the crypto world, and now he's regretting it, while I'm regretting it even more. But to be honest, gradually laying out investments is indeed more stable; if you go all-in and it crashes, your mindset is ruined. This bull run feels really different; big institutions have entered the market, and we retail investors need to seize the opportunity. Wait, if Anthony, holding tens of millions of dollars, can be persuaded, what am I even hesitating about with my little spare cash? Damn, it's that "you'll regret it in five years" argument again, but this time it really seems different.
