Mentally as far as I&#39;m concerned we haven&#39;t had a a bull market since 2017. 7 years of meaningless chop ....as always there&#39;s light at the end of the tunnel, but just when I think we&#39;re reaching the end, we round another corner.&#xA;&#xA;Not sure if other hodlers are like me, but I find it difficult to live in the moment. I do my best, but it&#39;s almost as if my life is on hold until we have a raging bull market. There are places I want to travel, a home I want to build, but instead I&#39;m stacking and waiting, and the years are going by.&#xA;&#xA;My first child was born around the last bull market, I&#39;ve spent the majority of their life obsessed with bitcoin, stacking sats, and waiting for our &#34;real life&#34; to start. I still think I&#39;ve been a good husband and father, but I know I could be better. Unable to ever fully be present, that nagging hope of a better future always in the back of my mind.&#xA;&#xA;As bitcoin cascades down today in yet another liquidation wick, I can&#39;t help but reflect on the past. Perhaps we&#39;re all destined to be Moses, wandering the desert for 40 years, the imperfect saviors of our individual tribes. We&#39;ll be remembered, but only our children will ever reach the promise land. Could be worse I suppose. I still don&#39;t think that&#39;s very likely, I think we very well might be rounding that final corner of the tunnel, but I&#39;m trying to come to terms with the fact that that might not be true. Perhaps there&#39;s another 33 years of wandering.</html></oembed>
