Early Bitcoin buyers who got in at $20 or $150 became extremely wealthy as price swings that once meant everything now go unnoticed. The speaker argues the same wealth-creation pattern will repeat with altcoins like Solana and Ethereum if you can resist selling at each milestone.
Here is why there's still a real opportunity to get rich from cryptocurrency. This is kind of an obscure reason, so follow along and make sure to click follow for more. Concept here is destruction of price perspective. So it used to be a really big deal if Bitcoin's price moved $1 up or down, but nowadays Bitcoin's price can move hundreds of dollars or thousands of dollars up and down and nobody even cares. So the perception has been broken. The people who bought in at $20 per Bitcoin, $150 per Bitcoin are forgotten about but extremely rich. You'll never hear their name, but they bought at $200 and maybe they held until $20,000 or right now $100,000. So with altcoins specifically, there's still a chance for this perception to be broken. Right now it's a big deal if XRP goes up a dollar. Like, if it went up $2 tomorrow, it would be huge news. But back in the day when Bitcoin was just a dollar or $10, this was the same type of situation. And now as time has went on, people have became more numb, and in that numbness a lot of people became multimillionaires off holding the asset. Hardest part is holding the asset because from $1 Bitcoin to $100,000 Bitcoin, you have to not be tempted at every level to sell and you have to hold. And that's the hard journey of a crypto holder is to get and to resist the temptation and to continue to believe in the asset you're holding. So one day I hope that this happens to certain coins, like for example Solana. Hopefully one day it's not weird for the token price to move hundreds of dollars in a day up and down. With Ethereum, we need those $5,000 swings daily. You can't say I'm crazy for thinking this might happen because it happened to Bitcoin. And it technically happened with certain altcoins already, but there's a long road ahead of us for crypto. For example, XRP was once under a penny. Yeah, under a penny. And people purchased and people held and people got rich and we forgot their names. No one knows. They've just got a $5 million, $10 million house because they were early on XRP and continued to believe.
