#BTC资金流动性 Many people lose money playing coins, not because they chose the wrong coin, but because they don't understand one principle: selling is the final step of the transaction. I've heard too many stories—unrealized gains doubled, but in the end, they still gave it back. Why? Because they don't truly understand the basic logic that "unrealized gains are just numbers; only cashing out is real money."
In trading Bitcoin or any cryptocurrency asset, the liquidity realization capability is often overlooked. It's easy to get excited when $BTC rises to new highs, but when you actually want to liquidate, market depth, slippage, and timing selection — these are the factors that determine whether you can truly profit. Many people fail here.
So veteran players all say: buying well is not as good as selling smart. It's not about frequent trading, but rather having a clear understanding of your take-profit point. Set your target price and stick to it, don’t wait for unrealized gains to turn into unrealized losses. This is not psychology, it's mathematics.

Really, I've seen too many people with unrealized gains several times over still end up losing, their mentality collapsed.
Without a selling plan, no matter how good the market is, it's all in vain.
Unrealized gains are just a mirror; only locking in profits counts.
What’s the use of buying the right coin if you sell wrong and end up Rekt.
This is why I never chase the price; I set a price and wait, then leave when the time comes.

Hi, you're right. Selling is indeed the hardest part. I've seen too many people double their profits on paper, but end up losing it all in one pullback. Really, that's just tragic.

Unrealized gains are not money, this saying is annoying to hear, but there are still people who don't learn their lesson.
Simply put, it's greed; clearly it's time to take action but they keep waiting, and in the end, they cry when it falls back.
The knowledge of selling is indeed underestimated, and Slippage can be particularly painful in a bull run.
Really, when trading, you need to have a take profit number; without a number, it's just pure gambling.
Most people lose money because they can't get past their psychological barriers, not because they chose the wrong coin.
