If there's something I've learnt being on this blockchain, it's that you never actually lose out until you make rash decisions. There are majorly no right and wrong decisions and I'll tell you why. For example a lot of people on the blockchain holds divided opinion; while some others feel they need to power down to go to a better blockchain or maybe they just don't trust the future of hive.

others are powering up and increasing their holding because in the long run it gives them huge standings; they're trusting the chain, the coin, the community and the witnesses to make the right decision and push out hive out there, to make it more viable and of course attractive.

These are two decision makers who I wouldn't really say they're right or wrong. Sometimes we look at the uncertainty at the moment and it doesn't really promise to be better in the future, people tend to read patterns when it comes to making emotional investments and sometimes they just feel they haven't been convinced enough to put in their time and money and maybe efforts.

People who either to chose to build or not to are not wrong or right, they only thing is one person would gain and the other person might lose, the roles can be reversed vice versa. Sometimes a person can decide to build let's say on hive for example, putting in their time, effort and money because they trust the process.

They might begin to lose money as a result of many variables but then this doesn't mean they're right or wrong. Only in the long-term would you really base your assessment to see of if you've totally bottled it or not. For example, someone who has invested a lot into cub would be feeling hard done at the moment. The fact that they made the choice to trust cub doesn't mean they're right or wrong.

This is because sometimes our scrutiny on the reasons why a project might be a total hit might just be excellent, it's just that some variable might just affect these and make us seem like total failures. People are too quick to want to make money in the short run. They don't look at in six months time" or in one or two years time"*

Most of my mistakes in Crypto has majorly been selling too early rather than selling too late, I've never actually sold too late because there's not static positions when it comes to crypto. Time is always of the essence. If I look at my mistakes I wouldn't say it was because i was right or wrong I'll say it was because I didn't look at time as a variable that could change a lot of things and this is why I think time is always of the essence.

Newbies in crypto are always impatient. No sense for futuristic planning. I actually curate a lot of newbies are most are often complaining of not having enough to sell especially when they've allegedly put in effort into creating. I don't thing I have the best strategy I Only have a workable strategy "build for a time when selling will make a billionaire"

A lot of people selling their future by burning the bridges today and this can be really problematic. I came to the blockchain when competition was the highest, vote buying was at its peak, asslicking was a thing and you can work hard for six months and still earn nothing unlike now where your hardwork are not just rewarded on the chain's coin but through the tribes token too, I was putting the money I had from my day job into buying steem then probably four months into that, the 2017 bull market kicked in and boy! did I nearly die of happiness.

Truth is, your chances of losing when you trust the process isn't as huge as when you don't. For example, I don't entirely know if cub would come good, I made the decision to invest because I felt overtime it'll do well, you can call it the believer's instinct
