The 2021 bull run taught me harsh lessons—I watched six figures evaporate. Felt like starting from absolute zero. Fast forward to 2025, and I witnessed something that hit different. A skilled trader launched a "1 SOL to 100" solo challenge. Solid strategy on paper. Except reality had other plans. They reloaded. Failed again. Reloaded once more. Each attempt ate into capital, but they had the cushion to try again. That's the thing nobody talks about enough: when your account sits near zero, you don't get do-overs. One bad trade and you're out. Meanwhile, the players with firepower can afford to learn through losses. The gap between retail traders with buffer and those betting everything is brutal. My takeaway? I'm betting on the underdogs in this space. Those grinding from nothing deserve better odds.
