According to Milk Road (@MilkRoadDaily), successful cryptocurrency investing requires a true long-term perspective, measuring holding periods in decades rather than months or years. The thread emphasizes that if traders can accurately identify the intrinsic value of a crypto asset, they should be prepared to hold it for decades to maximize the compounding returns. Quality assets held over extended periods tend to benefit from significant growth due to compounding effects, making patient investing a key strategy for long-term portfolio performance (source: Milk Road Twitter, May 5, 2025).
