Since entering the cryptocurrency world, I have maintained a principle: Bitcoin should account for more than half of my holdings.
Bitcoin is the core of the cryptocurrency world; it is the foundation of the crypto space. Without Bitcoin, there would be no cryptocurrency world. I can still recall the excitement I felt when I first started learning about Bitcoin.
Due to Bitcoin's continuous rise, my holdings have increased from 50% to 70%. Compared to the lamentations in the market, I am quite pleased.
There will likely be a season of altcoins, but I wouldn’t dare to say for sure. After all, seeking a sword on a boat is futile. However, regardless of whether it happens or not, please do not bet on it happening immediately. A large-scale altcoin season often begins after the mainstream coins have risen, such as ETH, SOL, etc., and it typically presents as a rotation, where one rises just as another has finished its run. Therefore, there is no need to rush.
The market does not change overnight; just because you are a bit slow does not mean you will miss the opportunity. Often, the biggest reason for losses is actually being too quick—wanting to operate quickly, make money quickly, and achieve financial freedom quickly. As a result, many in the crypto space choose high-leverage futures, short-term trades, and focus on candlestick charts rather than the overall market trends. Then they end up losing everything. It’s common to see accounts with only tens of thousands or even thousands of dollars, yet they are frantically increasing their leverage. Then they are on the verge of liquidation, shouting, 'What should I do?!'
The so-called slowness is actually speed. Understanding this principle is essential to steadily making money in the cryptocurrency world.
