The turning point is a long bend for most HODLers, who develop along the way a mosaic of intelligence as they learn more, gain confidence with custody, and bitcoin becomes boringly dependable. The road straightens, there are no surprises, and every dollar that isn't going towards a near-dated bill is saved in bitcoin. You know your balance is there, just like the current USD price unavoidably is on all the apps you use. First principles become a mental habit, bringing with them a strong sense of what's right and wrong, which is to say charlatans in the space are easy to identify, so are shady BIPs, and bad economic stewardship. Then the asset's price action fades from importance, as does the Bitcoin Twitter crowd, and your mind relaxes, your node is doing what it's designed to do. You open a window, and can hear the birds sing amongst the green contrasts. 🌳
Beautiful. Almost poetic.
