‎     Joke ‎A guy walks into a Bitcoin Support Group and says: ‎ ‎Hi, I am Nick, long-term HODLer. ‎I totally believe in Bitcoin for the next 10 years… and I’ve checked the price 42 times this morning. ‎ ‎The group gasps. ‎The therapist, wearing a hoodie that says In Node We Trust, leans forward and says: ‎ ‎Nick, that’s not HODLing. ‎That is taking your emotions hostage with a 1-minute chart. ‎ ‎Suddenly, the lights flicker and a giant, glowing orange ₿ appears on the screen like it joined the Zoom call. ‎Bitcoin clears its throat: ‎ ‎Everyone keeps saying ‘Bitcoin is too volatile. ‎I am not volatile. ‎Your attention span is just stuck in 2017. ‎ ‎The room goes silent. ‎Bitcoin continues: ‎ ‎If a 15-minute red candle can destroy your 4-year plan, ‎you didn’t have a plan… ‎you had a wish with Wi-Fi. ‎ ‎The therapist nods: ‎Class, repeat after me: ‎Volatility is not punishment… it’s tuition. ‎You can pay it in panic, ‎or you can pay it in patience and education. ‎ ‎Nick raises his hand: ‎So what should I do when the price dips? ‎ ‎Bitcoin shrugs: ‎Simple. ‎When the price goes down, your IQ about Bitcoin should go up. ‎One dip = one lesson. ‎Stop doom-scrolling Twitter, go read a page of the whitepaper. ‎ ‎Nick whispers: ‎So you are not wrecking me? ‎ ‎Bitcoin smiles: ‎I am not wrecking you, Nick. ‎I am trying to upgrade your time horizon from TikTok to halving cycle.
