The difference between gratitude for your current holdings and jealousy over missing gains will shape your 2026 results.

One mindset compounds wealth. The other burns it.

If you're holding Bitcoin, Ethereum, or other positions you believe in—appreciation beats anxiety every single time. But comparison is the thief of conviction. You can't build long-term conviction while scrolling through others' highlight reels.

Here's the reality: By 2026, the people who stayed disciplined with what they owned will outperform those who chased every moonshot or panic-sold at noise. The market has a way of humbling both extremes.

Envy makes you trade emotionally. Gratitude makes you hodl strategically.

So take a second—look at your portfolio. If it aligns with your thesis, that's something to be grateful for. The rest is just noise.
