Many people are asking: I only have one or two thousand U, where should I start? This question seems simple, but the answer determines how far you can go.

For small amounts of capital, there are two mainstream approaches, and their core logic is actually the same—

Method 1: Find a fundamentally solid, technically perfect potential coin, and focus your bets to make your first big gain.

Method 2: Divide your money into 2 to 3 parts, and simultaneously invest in 2 to 3 projects with potential, to diversify risk.

No matter which one you choose, the key to success is: once it rises, first withdraw your principal, and let the remaining profit continue to grow. This is called "zero-cost holding," and it’s the safest and most effective way for small funds to upgrade.

But what about reality? Spot trading is too slow and easy to get trapped, most people can’t tolerate it—no matter how perfect the strategy, it’s hard to implement.

Where do small funds really get stuck?

**First hurdle**: Not enough win rate, hard to achieve continuous growth. Pursuing a high reward-to-risk ratio inevitably lowers the win rate, and frequent drawdowns can crush your mindset.

**Second hurdle**: Small funds actually need not explosive profits, but a combination of low drawdowns and stable compound growth.

**Third hurdle**: Whether to do long-term or short-term trading isn’t the main point; the ability to sustain profitability is what matters.

**Fourth hurdle**: Over-leveraging is a forbidden zone. Those who dare to heavily concentrate their positions have win rates and risk tolerance on a different level.

There’s a saying that may sound harsh, but it’s the truth: Don’t keep dreaming "When I save up 1 million, I can make money."

Even with a few tens of thousands U, you can lose it all. The problem isn’t the principal, but the methodology.

The only way for small funds to turn around is: steady progress, precise entries, reducing trial and error, and sticking to compound growth. In this market, "slow is fast" is not just a cliché, but a rule. Compared to chasing overnight riches, endurance is the ultimate card that decides victory or defeat.

Many people focus on the trends of popular coins like $BNB and $XRP, but what they should really ask is—does their own capital management system truly accommodate these fluctuations? Every story of small funds starts with answering this question.
