A long-term cryptocurrency investor has turned $1,000 into $1 million, underscoring the payoff of patient holding strategies in digital assets.
The “diamond hand” cryptocurrency holder turned their original $1,000 BNB (BNB) investment into over $1 million, marking a 1,000-fold return in eight years.
The investor acquired their stash for just $1,000 when the Binance ecosystem’s native token traded for around $1 back in 2017, according to blockchain data platform Lookonchain.
