If I win a Green Card (USA), how long do I have the right to move to the USA? Is there any way I can wait 10 years to do it?

You don't win the Green Card.
You win the permission to apply for a Green Card. This is always a process and also costs some money.

This includes that you do all the paperwork, complete the medical examination and, of course, that you personally attend the US Consulate for an interview.

If you get the Permanent Resident Card, you need to take the so-called activation trip to the USA and pick up the Greencard in the USA.

From then on, you can live and work in the USA. If you don't want to emigrate, you have a certain period (about 12 months), then the card would be invalid again.
The deadline for actual immigration can be negotiated with the authorities, but you never have time for 10 years. Then you'd have to apply for it again.

No, if you stay here, the GC will fall.
