#数字资产市场洞察 People often ask me, how do you play in the crypto world to make money?
I don't want to talk about technical indicators or mysterious theories. Let's start with my personal experience.
Three years ago, I entered the market with 1000U. At that time, I didn't have any grand goals—just treated this money as a trial-and-error cost. Now, my account has reached eight figures. This process can be divided into three distinct stages.
**Level 1: Survive and Exit (1000U → 10,000U)**
Initially, I didn't think about getting rich; I only had one thought: don't get caught in a trap here.
I set two strict rules for myself: - Max loss per trade is only 2% - Once a trade profits over 20%, take out some of the profit
Sounds conservative? But because of this discipline, I managed to preserve my principal through those crazy market swings.
**Level 2: Find the Rhythm (10,000U → 100,000U)**
Start truly reviewing each trade and write down the logic behind them.
I remember once a coin tripled in three days, but I didn't act. Someone in the group mocked me for being too cautious. A week later? That coin's price returned to where it was.
That was when I truly understood: in crypto, minimizing losses is equivalent to earning.
**Level 3: Conquer Yourself (100,000U → Tens of Millions)**
As the money grows, it's easier to be driven by emotions. Later, I found a like-minded trader, and we would "pour cold water" on each other.
Once, during an extremely hot market, he said one thing that pulled me out of euphoria. We liquidated early, then watched the market drop nearly 30%.
Since then, I really understood: stability is always more valuable than temporary explosions.
**A Few Honest Words**
Don't dream of getting rich overnight. Those stories sound dazzling, but essentially they are survivor bias—losers are long gone.
How much you ultimately earn won't exceed your cognitive capacity and self-discipline. The fluctuations in your account shouldn't affect your life rhythm or emotional state.
There are no shortcuts on this path. It’s about execution, learning speed, and how clearly you understand yourself.
Now I have closed most of my positions, patiently waiting for the real big opportunity. Whenever it comes, I’m not in a hurry.

That's right, you just have to stay alive. Don't listen to those get-rich-quick stories; many have already died.

It sounds good, but those who truly survive understand—this set of discipline is essentially a hedge against human greed. The problem is, most people simply can't follow through because the incentives for game theory are inherently distorted.

You're so right, self-discipline is the hard currency.
Losing less really equals earning more, I truly understand this.
It all comes down to mindset—making money is secondary, staying alive is the key.
This summary is so realistic, it hits right in my heart.

It sounds very reasonable, but I think most people simply can't do it.
Really, self-discipline is easy to talk about...
Wait, are you really all in now? Feels like this timing is a bit delicate.
The key is still to survive, I agree.
To put it simply, leaving this hurdle alive is the hardest part; everything after is just addition.
I agree with this logic, but executing it is too counter-human.
