Focusing on assets caught in the bottom half of the J-Curve often pays off. History shows this playbook works across the board—Layer 1 blockchains, NFT projects, memcoins, even AI-focused tokens.

The trick? Early price action will mess with your head. It's designed to shake weak hands out. Those false recoveries and dead cat bounces? They're not real signals. The real move typically comes after everyone's exhausted from the early noise.

The patience game separates winners from the crowd. When sentiment's darkest and charts look ugliest, that's when the actual accumulation window opens.

Really, the hardest part isn't choosing assets, but enduring that tormenting period of volatility. Many people die before dawn.

Haha, it's the same old story. Every time, they say that picking up bargains at the bottom is the most profitable, but as a result, my wallet has already been drained to numbness.

To be honest, I've heard this theory too many times. Every time, it's "the darkest moment is the buying point." And yet? My wallet hurts even more than my heart.

Honestly, enduring the false rebounds in the early stage is the real skill. Most people get stuck here.

On-chain data shows that it's always like this—false breakouts during the bottom consolidation phase are the easiest to deceive. From the perspective of contract changes, genuine chip accumulation occurs when no one is paying attention, which is worth noting.

That's right, enduring the false rebounds in the early stages is what makes a true winner.

Damn, I should have just held on and not chased the high.
