HODLing isn't just a tactic—it's the foundation of real wealth in crypto. When the market screams at you to panic, most traders crack. But those who've built conviction? They stay calm. Building this kind of psychological resilience matters. You need strong hands, stable buying pressure, and a mindset that absorbs volatility without breaking. Market cycles are predictable for one reason: most people fold at exactly the wrong moment. Understanding this separates the ones who survive every crash from those who don't.

Sounds good, but I believe on-chain data is the real key. Only the flow of major wallet addresses can tell you who is truly HODLing and who is secretly running away.

HODL is not a sophisticated strategy; it's just about endurance. If you can endure, you win.

That's right, mindset is the true dividing line. I've seen too many people cut their losses during a sharp decline.

Basically, it's about testing psychological resilience. Most people lose out because they sell at the worst times.

ngl the "strong hands" narrative is just survivor bias dressed up as wisdom... ever considered that most people "fold at the wrong moment" bc they're actually reading the market correctly and you're just lucky? 👀

That's right, mindset is the key to success or failure.

That's true, but the problem is that most people can't stick with it, including myself.

That's right, the biggest enemy is mindset, not the price of the coin.

Well said, but how many can actually do it? I've seen too many people say they will hold, but as soon as the market drops, they cut their losses. Haha.
