From SHIB, we can see the inheritance of blockchain spirit

Yesterday's article about SHIB had many readers' comments, some of whom expressed a little regret, thinking that it would be great if they could know about this kind of project earlier.

In fact, my understanding of SHIB has only recently begun.

SHIB was launched in August last year. Looking back now, it was the time when DeFi was making great strides. At that time, almost all of my attention was on DeFi. In my impression, almost all the attention of the media at that time was also on DeFi.

After such a reflection, we can say that even if someone (including me) or the media knew the information about SHIB at that time, they might not be interested in digging out the story behind this project, let alone spreading this kind of project. Since no media is interested in spreading this kind of project, it is almost impossible for most people to know about this kind of project in the first place.

So, as I mentioned in the previous article on Dogecoin, such an opportunity probably does not belong to the majority of people, but only to the lucky few.

Besides, even if someone really knew about this project, how many people would dare to buy it at that time?

Here I also want to remind readers: for such a high-risk project, you should be cautious and cautious when buying now.

One of our readers commented that he bought a little SHIB and has been holding it till now. Here, let’s make a rough guess about how this friend bought SHIB at that time:

1. This investor was probably the same as most investors when he bought Shitcoin: he might not have thought that Shitcoin would rise 100 times or 1000 times in the future. I am afraid it was just because of various reasons that he thought it was a bit interesting, without hindering his life. Under the circumstances, take some spare money and buy some fun.

This friend also said it himself: I don’t buy much. I think this can better reflect the casual and peaceful mentality of investors at that time.

2. This friend mentioned that because he didn't buy much, he can always get it now.

I have a deep understanding of this. In the process of investment, when we only use a small part of the funds to invest, because this fund is insignificant to us, we can treat the investment with a more peaceful attitude, and our hearts will not be affected. The impact of the mentality of worrying about gains and losses: if it falls, it doesn’t matter even if it loses everything; See what it will end up like? So I held it and saw that it had increased by 100 times, 1000 times, and 10000 times.

For such an investor, I don't even think it matters what the final outcome of SHIB is. The most important thing is that he has personally experienced the growth experience of 100 times currency, the investment experience of 100 times currency, and this experience will be the key to his investment career. interesting and meaningful.

If we think carefully about our investment experience, we may find that the investments that often bring us surprises are the investments we make inadvertently, and those investments that we value the most and spend the most time may bring us The returns are not as good as those casual investments.

But can we therefore devote our energy to specifically looking for those casual projects? cannot. We still have to put the most important ballast stone on assets with low risk and controllable risk (such as Bitcoin and Ethereum).

When we have ballast stones, we can free up energy, time, and funds to boldly deploy those high-risk projects. At this time, even in the face of high risks, our mentality will become peaceful and tolerant, and this mentality often It will bring us unexpected benefits. And once we have harvested huge wealth from these high-risk projects, this experience will fundamentally improve our level and greatly deepen our understanding of investment.

I once shared with you my views on dogecoin, and now I share my views on shitcoin with you. My feelings about these two coins are very different:

Regarding the skyrocketing price of Dogecoin, I think the factor of human chance is stronger. If Musk does not support Dogecoin, but other coins, it is estimated that other coins may have a similar market.

Regarding the skyrocketing of SHIB, I think there is a deeper layer of blockchain spirit that plays a role in it: the pursuit of personal feelings, the pursuit of pure ideals, and the pursuit of freedom. This is the unswerving pursuit of countless idealists and utopians since Satoshi Nakamoto, and it is also the fascinating fundamental sentiment of the entire encryption world.

From SHIB, I have seen the inheritance of the blockchain spirit, and I believe that this spirit will continue to be inherited, and we will definitely see such extreme utopian projects in the future. But such a treasure cannot belong to a refined profit seeker, it can only belong to a pure idealist.
