# That person's 2026 IOTX comeback legend
That person made their first purchase of IOTX in the spring of 2024, when the price was 0.00443. They invested five thousand yuan and bought 1.12 million coins. Charlie laughed at them: "This broken coin can't even count its decimal points, what are you aiming for?"
That person said nothing; they had studied the IoTeX roadmap—decentralized physical infrastructure, machine economy, this is the future.
The bear market in 2024 was long. IOTX dropped to 0.003, and that person had an unrealized loss of 30%. Charlie bought Solana, doubling his investment in three months, flaunting his profits every day. "Come on out," Charlie urged, "this coin is hopeless." That person gritted their teeth and invested another five thousand. They told themselves: either it goes to zero, or it leads to freedom.
2025 was even more excruciating. The meme coin frenzy, with Pepe and Bonk skyrocketing a hundredfold. That person watched their friends get rich, their finger trembling over the sell button. They uninstalled the market software, keeping only the transfer function. Every month, when their salary arrived, they dollar-cost averaged into IOTX, ignoring the price.
Charlie changed to a Porsche, and that person rode past on an electric bike, feeling a mix of emotions. But they remembered what was written in the white paper: trillions of devices, trillion-dollar market. They believed the intersection of the physical world and blockchain would come, sooner or later.
In April 2026, at the Nvidia GTC conference, IoTeX announced deep integration with edge AI chips, and the DePIN sector exploded. Institutional funds poured in, and IOTX began to rise from 0.005.
0.01. 0.05. That person's hand was shaking, but they did not sell.
0.1. 0.3. Charlie sent a message: "Bro, are you still there?"
0.5. That person quit their job. They held 3 million IOTX, with an average cost of 0.006.
In late autumn 2026, IOTX reached 1 dollar. That person saw the market at three in the morning, drenched in cold sweat, then laughed, and then cried. They realized part of their position—three million yuan. The rest, they prepared to leave for the next cycle.
Charlie took them out for dinner, with respect in his eyes: "How did you do it?"
That person raised their glass: "Because I don't remember how much I bought, only why I bought it."
Outside the window, the city's lights twinkled like stars. That person recalled a winter night two years ago, wrapped in a blanket in a rental room, staring at the candlestick chart, trembling. It turned out that freedom is not the moment of sudden wealth, but every moment of choosing to believe while enduring the cold winter.
