Having been in this market for 8 years, I have seen many people's lives turn upside down—some celebrating overnight doubles, others with zeroed-out accounts falling silent forever. Every week, a newcomer asks me the same question: "Is it really possible for an ordinary person to make a million dollars through crypto assets?" My answer has never changed: it’s possible, but only if you give up the gambling mentality.

Last year, I closely followed a very ordinary investor who started with just $500 in spare cash, and after 14 months, his account grew to $60,000. There weren’t any fancy tricks in his account, it even looked a bit dull, but that’s the most scarce thing in the crypto world—wisdom to survive. Today, I’ll break down three logical points from an analyst’s perspective to help you avoid 90% of the pitfalls.

**First Logic: Making money is about probability, not luck-based gambling**

The most common misconception in this circle is thinking that making money depends on "hitting a hundredfold coin" or "catching a sudden surge in one shot." But after tracking over 200 accounts that gained more than 10 times, I found that the investors who last the longest treat this as a game of probability. They never chase after a 100% win rate; instead, they rely on a "high win rate strategy + continuous execution" to accumulate profits.

For example: long-term investors never buy at the peak in a bull market. Instead, they wait until market sentiment is at its most pessimistic, then buy in stages into mainstream assets, and start gradually selling once the expected gains reach 30%-50%. It sounds like slow profit, but data doesn’t lie—the profitability stability of these investors over the past five years is eight times that of short-term traders.
