Four years ago, you invested 230 USDT in $FIL 's ceiling,

At that time, your confidence was sky-high, thinking you were about to become the first successful on-chain person in your family.
You uninstalled the exchange,
Started going to bed early and waking up early, working diligently, telling everyone about long-termism and value investing.
You even explained to friends:
FIL is the future, storage is a necessity, when the bull market returns, I will retire.

These years, you haven't traded cryptocurrencies or internalized conflicts,
Worked steadily, your personality has become more stable, and your parents praise you for being more sensible.
You thought this was growth,
But in reality—you're just numb from being trapped.

Today, you hear someone say:
Bro, FIL has skyrocketed!
Your eyes light up, and you think:
End of hardships, finally it's my turn.

You rush home like a flying arrow,
Family members hear the news and come running, thinking you're about to announce buying a house or getting married.
You solemnly redownload the exchange,
Trembling as you open your assets,
On the screen, $FIL : 2.07 USDT.

You fall silent for three seconds,
Your eyes gradually lose focus,
As if hearing the echo of fans blowing in the mining farm.

Finally, you softly say eight words:
Blockchain is the future, I have no future.
