Many people entering the crypto world initially want to find that perfect path—making money without risking everything. But this mindset itself is flawed.
In small capital games, the core is not stability, but rhythm. The goal is speed, but with a bottom line.
The small amount of principal you have is essentially your ticket. Catching hot spots, riding emotional swings, taking profits and then exiting, running immediately after losses. Never go all-in consecutively; that’s not courage, it’s seeking death. Luck is indeed very important, but it’s not worth risking everything for. Play a few rounds of a challenge game, and if you win, upgrade your strategy; don’t get stuck on one level.
As your principal gradually accumulates, your approach must change to a more flexible method.
My approach is to divide funds into three lines:
Fast line—light positions to chase volatility, focusing on capital turnover efficiency;
Stable line—gradually reinforce profits to solidify the foundation, serving as a safety cushion;
Slow line—wait for big market moves; if the risk-reward ratio isn’t favorable, don’t act, focus on catching big opportunities.
Running these separately creates completely different mindsets. Knowing exactly what each dollar is doing prevents you from being hostage to a single K-line, reducing panic.
Final words: Small capital can explore aggressively, but you need brakes. Success isn’t achieved by a single all-in move, but through continuous stage upgrades.
