#现实资产代币化规模不断扩大 Twelve years in the crypto world, what kind of person have I become from a newcomer?
I entered the scene at 23, now I’m 36. A full bull and bear cycle plus half a cycle.
During this time, I’ve witnessed the rollercoaster of coin prices, seen stories of overnight wealth doubling, and also stories of zeroing out. From 2018 to 2020, my account first broke eight figures—that was a watershed moment and the starting point from which many people can never return.
Now, staying in five-star hotels on business trips doesn’t make me frown, and my luggage, hats, and other daily essentials are stamped with crypto’s mark. Walking on the street, I can recognize my own people at a glance. Compared to peers working in factories or running e-commerce, my daily life is ridiculously relaxed—no supply chain worries, no contract disputes, and no one delaying payments.
Many people ask me what I rely on to make a living from trading coins. I’ve thought about this repeatedly, and in the end, I can only summarize it in two words: mindset.
**My trading philosophy boils down to these points:**
Bitcoin is always the big brother in this circle. If it rises, altcoins have a chance to profit; once it falls, all other coins are going to slump. Not sure about the big trend? Just focus on BTC, and you’re good.
Bitcoin and USDT are like a seesaw. When USDT appreciates, be cautious; when BTC surges too fiercely, it’s time to stash some stablecoins to recover, which is called locking in profits.
Timing really matters. Midnight to 1 AM is easy to be "shot through," but setting an order before bed often yields free profits. Check the market trend between 6 and 8 in the morning; if it dips overnight, top up during the day; if it rises overnight, exit early. When US funds enter around 5 PM, big volatility is most likely to happen.
Don’t be too superstitious about "Black Friday." Market rises and falls are ultimately just capital playing around; dates don’t matter.
Don’t panic during downturns. As long as the coin isn’t an air coin and still has real trading volume, it can rebound within three to five days or a month. If you still have spare cash, add to your positions gradually; if not, hold tight.
The most proud trade I made was buying Dogecoin at $0.085, holding it all the way to now, more than 20 times profit. That’s not luck; it’s pure patience.
The truth has already proven—trading ultimately isn’t about complex techniques or insider info, but three things: mindset, position management, and time.
I’ve also thought about whether to return to a "normal life," but I later realized that what crypto has taught me is more than just making money. More importantly, I’ve learned how to control greed, manage risks, and see the true nature of people.
I used to stumble around in darkness, but now? The light is in my hands, shining all the time. Are you in or out?

After 12 years, we're still talking about mindset. Honestly, it just means I haven't lost everything and been wiped out until now.

Really, I've heard too many stories like this... but those who can hold on for twelve years without selling are indeed rare, I have to admit in terms of mindset.

0.085 to buy Dogecoin and holding until now? Brother, your mindset is unmatched, truly an art born from patience.

Dogecoin bought at 0.085, and now? Bro, your patience is really incredible. I just can't hold on like that.
