The hardest part of investing is not buying. It is refusing to sell. @APompliano learned it the painful way: he mined ETH around $5, sold after a huge move, then watched it run to $1,400. Anthony Pompliano, investor and entrepreneur: "I am now convinced that actually selling is [Spoken audio]: to do that. There's a couple of things, right? The first is I've made plenty of mistakes in selling. If you go back before I ever really went very hard into Bitcoin from an investment standpoint, I actually started out mining Ethereum or Ether. I was mining Ether when it was like $5 and it ran at the beginning of 2017 from $8, $10 to $150. And I did that in a couple of months And I sold all of it. I thought I was a genius. And then I watched it run the rest of that year to $1,400. And I felt like an idiot. And so I said, you know, this thing that I was so happy about at the beginning of the year, I now feel really stupid about and feel like I'm a horrible investor. And so one of the things that I've become convinced of is when you start investing, you're very worried about what assets to buy. How do I buy them? How do I size them? It's all about the entry or the portfolio construction. But I am now convinced that that actually selling is the much harder exercise. When do you sell? What do you sell? How do you sell? How much do you sell? All of those things are much, much more difficult. And so if you go and you look at some of the best investors in the world, they just never sell. They just take off the table, the potential mistakes that they could make there. You look at somebody like a Kenland Gone. I think that he's somebody who's actually under discussed as an investor, but his average holding period in his portfolio is 42 years. He is one of the earliest investors in Eli Lilly. What's Eli Lilly? A trillion dollar company growing revenues at 50 plus percent year over year now. How many times along the way could Ken have said, I'm out, right? Like this was a good ride. I had made a bunch of money, I'm out. I believe that he holds, if not all, most of the original investment in Eli Lilly 40-something years later. So you look at that and you say actually the single most important decision that Ken made may not have been buying Eli Lilly. may have been refusing to sell year after year after year for four or five decades. That's a really hard
Great post from @bwesterb and @cjpatton_ . It captures a lot of the conversations we have at @projecteleven with blockchain protocol and infra teams. These teams keep wishing reality were different. They hope quantum is 20 years away. They hope some magical future algorithm
AI visual note: A Cloudflare blog post titled "Why we cannot wait for better post-quantum signature algorithms" dated 2026-07-09, authored by Bas Westerbaan and Christopher Patton, aligns with the accompanying message about the urgent need for post-quantum cryptographic solutions rather than waiting for future algorithms.
