A Testament to Conviction: Holding Through Cycles
Today marks a unique milestone for Chainlink ($LINK ).
It has been over 1,675 days (approximately 4.6 years) since its all-time high in May 2021. We are now closer to the year 2030 than we are to that previous market peak.
This timeline provides a sobering perspective on market cycles and the true meaning of long-term holding. For some, it represents more than a chart—it’s a chapter of life.
Personal reflection:
· Entered the market 100% in $LINK at 18, just after high school.
· Now 21, preparing to graduate university in five months.
· Through this period, sustained profitability has been rare, with no extended period in the green beyond two months at a time.
· The entry coincided with the days before the Luna collapse, followed by nearly two years down >50%.
This isn't a story of easy gains. It's a narrative of patience, resilience, and conviction tested across seasons—both in the markets and in life.
Sometimes, the strongest portfolios are forged not in euphoria, but in endurance.
Key Takeaway:
True conviction isn't measured in days or weeks,but in the ability to maintain belief across years, through entire life stages, and against a backdrop of relentless volatility.
