I held a project token on Hive that was tradable on Hive-engine. I started accumulating it over 2 years before the bull run, and when I finally sold it in the bull run in 2021, it was a decent chunk really and I was really surprised, it just pumped from nowhere, when everything was pumping around August 2021.
If I gave up accumulating, I wouldn't get it. Infact many people didn't know it would pump.
So that I'm not surprised at that Shiba Inu guy, that money was life-changing enough.
