To be honest, I was a bit scared of myself.



Some time ago, I made a decision - to invest most of my wealth in TRX. Now I have 470,000 in my account. Of that, 120,000 is used to participate in some on-chain business, and the remaining 350,000 is all lent out to participate in voting. This strategy is very simple; I can earn over 200 TRX back every day, just like receiving a fixed salary.

At first, it was indeed exhilarating. Opening the account and seeing it grow every day gave me an incredibly solid feeling. I even set a goal for myself—to increase the voting pool to 1 million TRX by the end of the year, and my ultimate dream for the future is to save up to 5 million. Sometimes, when I can't sleep at night, my mind is filled with words like "passive income" and "early retirement."

But at three o'clock yesterday morning, I suddenly woke up from my dream. Staring at the ceiling for a long time, a question came crashing down on me like ice water—can I really continue down this path steadily?

To put it simply, all my current sources of income come from voting rewards, and the value of these rewards is entirely tied to the price of TRX. If TRX drops, the value of the 200 coins I receive daily in fiat currency will shrink accordingly. What’s worse is that the TRX I use to "accumulate principal" is also depreciating.

It's like spinning in a perfect loop—everything is wonderful as long as TRX remains stable or even rises. But what is the crypto market? It’s the house of roller coasters. Once it enters a long-term downtrend, my carefully constructed "passive income dream" could turn into a mirage within months.

What strikes me even more is that I realize I am actually gambling—betting on the continuous prosperity of the TRX ecosystem, betting on the prospects of Tron, and betting that market sentiment won't be too bad. Putting all my chips on one cryptocurrency is like investing all my wealth in a single company's stock; the risk factor is frighteningly high.

I am now wondering whether to allocate a portion of my profits to invest in other assets. The principle of diversifying risk is understood by everyone, but when it comes to actually doing it, it's hard to part with those stable voting returns. This dilemma is probably something every crypto investor encounters.

Dude, being wide awake at three in the morning is the most deadly... I can relate to that.
