Conviction and courage matter far more than being early.
Imagine this
someone who bought early,
20 BTC at $100.
They spent just $2,000 but sold it all at $1,000, pocketing $20K and disappearing forever.
That’s the typical early exit story.
Now picture someone who didn’t buy early, but bought right.
In 2020, Bitcoin crashes 25% to $15K. While everyone panics, they deploy $150K and grab 10 BTC.
Fast forward to $1 million per coin
they’re sitting on $10 million.
All because they had conviction when the market was bleeding.
Or take the one who buys 2 BTC at $70K during 2021’s peak.
Price crashes to $30K instead of whining, they double down, buy 4 more BTC.
Then in 2022, another dip to $16K, they stack again now holding 10 BTC total.
At $1 million BTC, they’re at $10 million off multiple conviction buys.
Buying fear, that’s the formula.
Timing didn’t make the difference. Courage did.
Being early helps, but it’s conviction that builds empires.
