In the Crypto Assets and stock markets, the strategy of holding assets long-term unconditionally is often overly romanticized; in reality, this is a high-risk behavior. While there are occasional lucky individuals who achieve considerable gains through long-term holding, such cases are rare. In most instances, blindly holding long-term can lead to significant financial losses.



The essence of the market is filled with uncertainty. Even if asset prices rise, it is often difficult for investors to accurately determine the best time to sell, leading them to miss out on optimal profit opportunities. Worse still, about 90% of long-term holders may ultimately face significant losses.

It is worth noting that those cases circulating online that claim to achieve huge returns through long-term holding are likely subject to selection bias. These successful cases are just the tip of the iceberg, hiding a large number of failed investment experiences behind them. According to statistics, among 1,000 investors, only 2-3 may achieve considerable returns through long-term holding strategies, while the vast majority may face the risk of significant asset devaluation.

Some self-media and marketing accounts tend to only report successful cases, neglecting a large number of failures, which may mislead investors. Rational investors should have a comprehensive understanding of market risks and develop flexible investment strategies, rather than blindly following so-called 'guaranteed profit' advice.

In the investment process, continuous learning, rational analysis, and timely adjustment of strategies are crucial. Investors should flexibly adjust their investment portfolios based on market changes and personal risk tolerance, rather than sticking to a single long-term holding strategy. Only in this way can they better protect and enhance the value of their assets in a volatile market.
