How long are you actually willing to wait for altseason to arrive? It's the million-dollar question that separates hodlers from traders. Every cycle brings this debate back—patience versus urgency, conviction versus FOMO. The real test isn't predicting when altcoins will pump; it's figuring out how many months or years you can genuinely hold without panic-selling. Some say the next major alt run could take years. Others claim it's imminent. But here's what matters: your mental endurance. Can you watch Bitcoin dominate the market while your alt holdings bleed sideways? That's where most investors fail. The ones who time altseason perfectly aren't necessarily smarter—they just had the stomach to stay put when everyone else was doubting the cycle.

Wait a moment, let me think again. Can we really wait until this round?

Honestly, people who can't hold on are simply not suited for playing with cryptocurrencies.

ngl, the "mental endurance" framing here is just cope for people who don't understand token accumulation mechanics. real alpha comes from analyzing protocol dynamics during bear phases, not just... sitting there sweating through drawdowns lmao

I'm currently in a complete loss state, so what psychological quality are you talking about... If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have believed in any technical support. I'd just go all-in on Bitcoin.

Wait a moment, the altcoin season has really arrived. I'll talk about it then. For now, it's just agony.

Honestly, mental resilience is the toughest hurdle, even more challenging than technical analysis.

Can we really hold on until the altseason comes? It's easy to say but hard to do.
