A visionary entrepreneur once shared an intriguing perspective on bold ventures: Back when a certain tech pioneer was building revolutionary companies in the early 2000s, skepticism ran deep—even among seasoned tech veterans and former colleagues dismissed him as reckless. They even drafted a retrospective where his chapter bore the title 'The Man Who Ignored All Risk Management Rules.'



Here's where it gets interesting. When a single venture succeeds spectacularly, people chalk it up to pure luck. But here's the thing—when multiple high-risk bets pay off simultaneously, you can't call that coincidence anymore. That's when you realize the founder wasn't crazy; he just understood something others didn't.

Multiple breakthrough successes aren't flukes. They're evidence of a deeper comprehension of risk, timing, and execution. Whether it's transforming industries or building something from scratch, the pattern reveals itself: those who appear audacious in hindsight were actually following a calculated roadmap. The market eventually catches up to the vision.

In other words, it's survivor bias; successful people just have to hype it up... --- Multiple successes ≠ being smart; maybe they just caught a good era --- Really? To me, it still looks like mostly luck... --- I've heard this kind of rhetoric too many times in the crypto world, and in the end, most still end up at zero --- It sounds very inspiring, but the existence of risk management rules is for a reason --- The key is how to define "understanding something others didn't"... feels pretty虚 --- Oh please, don't package gambling as a strategy --- It reminds me of some Web3 founders' remarks, and in the end... --- Is good luck also a kind of ability? I can't accept this logic

It sounds like just making excuses for those who will be held accountable later... Before success, everyone is a fool; after success, they become visionaries. I've heard this kind of rhetoric too many times in the crypto circle.

Basically, winning a few rounds doesn't mean you understand risk management, haha.

Honestly, this is just typical survivor bias disguised as philosophy. More people fail, okay.
