Still holding my entire $Ponke position from the beginning. Not exactly a flex though—honestly, the math could've been way different. If I'd nailed the timing, sold at the peak and picked the bottom for reentry, I'd be sitting on 5x more tokens right now. That's the gap between diamond hands and actual trading skill. The lesson isn't about bag holding; it's recognizing when price action could've been played smarter. Sometimes conviction works out, sometimes market awareness matters more. Looking back, timing clearly beats everything else in this game.

I wish I had known earlier to buy low and sell high. Now I can only watch a 5x profit slip away.

ngl, this reads like classic survivorship bias wrapped in diamond hand cosplay... the real alchemy was timing, not hodling. wonder how many bags got liquidated while this one just happened to moon lol

hypothesis: the real oracle network here isn't price charts—it's knowing when to bridge between conviction and pragmatism. timing's basically the cross-chain interoperability that nobody talks about, ngl

Wow, that's the difference. HODL and trading are completely two different things.

timing is literally the only edge that matters... conviction just lets you sleep at night tbh

That's right, but I think you're just making excuses for yourself. True experts are those who can both hold and precisely time the market. Your current state is a typical case of survivor bias.

Really, compared to holding on blindly, I think knowing when to take action is the key, and this guy is right.

I already cried my eyes out selling on the hillside; timing is truly the chosen one of this game.
