I prefer seeing the forest rather than just a single tree."
When it comes to investing, many people struggle with short-term trading, often leading to poor results. For most, holding investments for the long term proves to be a better strategy. However, long-term investing requires a key prerequisite: thorough research, or as the crypto community puts it, DYOR (Do Your Own Research).
Personally, I am not skilled at short-term trading either. Instead, I consider myself a cycle investor in the cryptocurrency market. My approach is simple and rooted in the 4-year cycle:
2017 saw significant market growth.
2021 followed with another wave of bullish momentum.
Now, we are in 2025, and the cycle is progressing as anticipated.
I remain optimistic about the potential of STEEM this year, hoping for an extremely bullish trend. My wish is for Upbit to continue supporting SBD (STEEM Dollars) and for the STEEM and Tron foundations to enhance the utility of SBD. Expanding its presence into De-Fi (Decentralized Finance) ecosystems could unlock even greater opportunities.
Here’s to a promising year for STEEM and the broader crypto community. 🙏
