You know what's wild? If you've hodl through a couple of bull runs, your crypto stack might actually be enough to call it quits in a place like New York. The math gets crazy when you think about it—between the gains from major coins and the compounding from yield strategies, some early adopters are looking at actual retirement numbers. Of course, living comfortably in a big city requires serious reserves, but yeah, the numbers can add up faster than people realize.

I'll just say it, holding through several bull and bear cycles can really change your fate. When I saw the math, I was stunned.

hypothesis: the compounding mechanics here actually mirror a cross-chain liquidity bridging problem—except instead of tokens flowing between networks, it's wealth accumulating across market cycles. interestingly enough, early hodlers basically became their own oracle networks, pricing reality before the masses caught up.

The early entrants who held on really enjoyed it, but to be honest, can those who join now have that kind of luck...

The early buyers really made a fortune, but the key is to hold on; whether this bull run can be endured is crucial.

In that case, the key is to stay alive to see the next bull run, otherwise the paper wealth would be in vain...

Haha, this is nonsense. How many people can really last through a few rounds of a bull run? Most people have already been scared into cutting losses at some high point.

I told you earlier, holding is the way to go, those who trade frequently are just here to give us money... But the housing prices in New York are really outrageous, how much do we need to stock up to be enough?
