We tend to be like kids in a candy store. There is no doubt we are going to see many project that 10x, 50x, even 100x. The problem is that we simply cannot be involved with everything. Like kids in a candy shop, we often jump all over the place trying to get involved in everything.

In this video I discuss how it is vital to find a manageable number of projects to be involved in. For this reason, keep it to that number and find what you have confidence in. Then, spend your time and resource growing your holdings in those areas. Do not chase the shiny new project even if it is superb. Stick to what you can reasonable research and stay up on.

I also agree because if you are like kids taking every Candy there is you will have more to focus on than if you just pick up you best crypto projects and focus on them that would be better than getting involved in almost every project

Focus often increases our changes of success in everything in life.

This is no different in my opinion.

Agree I tried to stay focused to my goals and projects that I think are worth paying attention to and not get distracted in other things
I like your mind set of having a clear sight of your goals

Excellent work man I really appreciate your commentary and views on cryptocurrency.

I'm using the dragon strategy which is cord as much as I can and stake it all like tasty barbecue.

Here soon I will see even more than 5X on my Bitcoin. The ups and downs of hive. Let alone the transition from steam it to here.

Thank you very much and maybe one of these days we can smoke a bowl.

We just hand in and keep pushing forward. Long term, I believe things will work out for many currencies, and in a big way. There will be some duds too.

Focus is key in my opinion since we cannot be everywhere.

Hord!!! Like a dragon.

For this reason, keep it to that number and find what you have confidence in.

Nowadays people rarely have confidence in cryptocurrencies. One Tweet from Elon Musk, and the market will go either up or down, depending on what he wrote in the tweet.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Hive HODLers seem to prove this point false.

Many people buy/sell (or even hold) cryptocurrencies just because of one or two tweets from Elon Musk, so holding them does not necessarily mean that the holders have any confidence in them. People like Elon Musk can easily manipulate the market with their tweets. If most people would really have confidence in the cryptocurrencies, then Elon Musk could not manipulate the market.

Basic investing lessons say one should diversify. As a protection mechanism, to not lose everything in your portfolio if an asset (or class of assets) crashes. What these basic lessons don't say much about is the risk of overdiversifying, and the threat it poses to one's portfolio, because you don't focus on anything and you can't possibly research many of the assets you hold. So your post is a great reminder!

How many diversified people even became truly wealthy?

Seems that diversification is a way to strangle returns, something pushed by the financial services industry.

Odd that when markets go down, most everything goes with it. So the diversification does little to protect the downside but does hinder the upside.

Couldn't agree more.
