Background: The third phase had drawn attention back to playing games, while the market kept recovering. Sisyphus had nearly published a post announcing his departure from crypto; he had deleted the draft, but still faced a harder question. If his loss narrowed, would he stay or use the reprieve to leave?
Today: On Saturday, he saw the loss on his holdings improve from -85% to -70% and said it felt like a dream. When a friend asked whether he could finally celebrate, he repeated the two figures: the loss had narrowed, but his principal was still far from recovered. He decided against a hasty move and first wanted to see whether he genuinely wished to take part in the third phase's game tasks.
Impact and next steps: Earlier, staying had felt partly like refusing to leave at the bottom. The recovery gave him room to choose again, so stubbornness alone was no longer enough. He planned to consider his holdings separately from his interest in playing the games, then decide his next move when his emotions settled. He had no answer yet.
