STRC's got real potential, but here's what's holding me back—I haven't fully committed my emergency fund to it yet. The thing is, it hasn't actually been tested when things get messy. Picture a scenario like March 2020: markets cratering, liquidity drying up overnight. That's when you find out if an asset can actually hold its ground or if it collapses with everything else.

I'm genuinely bullish on STRC reaching that $100 mark, don't get me wrong. But until I see it survive a real crunch without tanking, I can't confidently park my safety net there. When you actually need the liquidity most—during a stress event—that's when the real test comes. And STRC just hasn't been through that particular fire yet.

Nah, agree. Coins that haven't experienced a bear market are just fooling around. Just wait and see. --- $100 is a dream. Survive a black swan first before bragging. --- That's right. Emergency funds should never be used to gamble on new coins. This bottom line must not be crossed. --- The 2020 wave really cleaned out the bad actors. STRC is still too young. --- The moment liquidity dries up is when you see people's true character. Anything said now is pointless.

Honestly, I also believe in STRC, but this guy is not wrong... Without experiencing a real bear market baptism, how can you go all-in with emergency funds? That's too risky. --- That's why I'm still on the sidelines. I'll decide once it truly withstands a major dip. --- A target of 100 dollars sounds good, but the question is liquidity? Can it be sold off at critical moments? --- No one can withstand the environment of March 2020... STRC hasn't been truly tested yet, and he's right about that. --- There are so many projects in the crypto space that look good, but when a black swan event occurs, you'll realize who the paper tigers are. --- Wait, I want to see the performance data of STRC under stress testing. Has anyone modeled it? --- It's not that I don't believe in it, but I wouldn't gamble my living expenses on an asset that hasn't experienced any pitfalls. --- Honestly, the safety cushion should be in stablecoins. No matter how good STRC is, it's not something for emergency use.

Honestly, I wouldn't dare put coins that haven't experienced a bear market into emergency funds. I also want to see $100, but I need to survive a real bloodbath first. When the day comes that STRC crashes along with the market and still holds up, then we can talk about trust.

The bear market reveals true colors, STRC is still too green --- Wait, even emergency funds dare to be used? Are you crazy, brother? --- I can imagine $100, but only after surviving a major dump first --- It sounds like you haven't experienced a real crash; it's all just talk --- The days of March 2020 are like a mirror that reveals the true face; now whatever you say is useless --- Dreaming of $100 is possible, but cry when liquidity crashes --- Projects that haven't been tested by fire are easily overrated; this is a simple truth --- Only when it truly reaches a life-and-death moment will you know if it's brick or gold

This guy's idea is pretty good, but the real bear market is the true test, and STRC hasn't gone through the life-and-death test yet.

Honestly, you want to throw emergency funds into STRC without experiencing a bear market? Or just forget it.
