It's easy to say. Sticking to mainstream coins like $ETH and $BNB without moving, resisting the impulse of every fluctuation—that's the real test.
Most people claim to believe in long-term holding, but as soon as they turn around, they become impatient with market emotions. Panic at red, greed at green. Every tug of the cycle exposes human nature.
True long-termists are not those who just shout slogans. They are those who can continue DCA in a bear market, resist temptation, and wait for the market to give an answer.
$ETH $BNB and these leading assets inherently exhibit cyclical performance. The question is, can you stick through the entire cycle? Or will you sell all your chips in the darkness before dawn?

Oh no, I'm the type of person who sells before dawn, I really can't help it.
---
Long-termism? I just laugh, anyway I've already cut my losses three times.
---
DCA sounds good, but as soon as a bear market hits, I start questioning life.
---
Who doesn't want to buy the dip? The key is that I have no money left to buy.
---
Exactly right, I'm that useless person who runs at the first sign of red.
---
Every time I tell myself not to move this time, but I still stop-loss and get out, it's really despairing.
---
$ETH has been held before, watching it drop 40%, but I still couldn't resist.
---
Periodic performance? I only see periodic losses.
---
This article feels like it's hitting my sore spot, I'm a bit angry.

Laughing to death, I am the one who accumulated chips before dawn, and I am now scripting my new joke.

That hits too close to home. I was running in the darkness before dawn last time, and I'm still regretting it now.

That's right, but I realize I'm also the type of person who is stubborn about my words.

Really, long-termism is easy to talk about, but the difficulty of execution is off the charts.

I'm the type of person who holds when I see red, sleeps soundly without looking at K-line. Honestly, DCA in a bear market is the real skill.

That's right, but the reality is that most people can't hold out until the cycle hits bottom. They sell in the dark before dawn.
---
Long-termism? My definition is pretending not to see the numbers in the wallet, simple and straightforward.
---
$ETH $BNB I haven't sold, mainly because I'm too lazy, haha. Not sure if that counts as being a true hodler.
---
The most heartbreaking thing is that those who truly persist are often the quietest, while those shouting "long term" every day are the first to run.
---
Those who still dare to DCA in a bear market either have strong faith or are crazy. I'm a mix of both.
---
That's a good question you asked. You've hit the pain point of 90% of people—that is, they can't help but give in and will fall.

That hits too close to home. I'm the type of person who is a long-term thinker in words, and when I see -15% in the middle of the night, I panic sell... Last year, I bought the dip at 8000 BNB, but I was shaken out at 9500. Now, watching it head towards 15000, I can only laugh at myself with self-deprecating humor.
