Crypto trading is wild—nail a few calls and everyone's celebrating with you, but fumble one trade and suddenly you're getting roasted. That's just how it goes in this space.

Last year though, I actually put out some solid picks. UFD, GRIFFAIN, Useless, ALCH, Pippin—those were the ones that really worked out. Built up a decent track record with a bunch of other altcoins too. It's not about being right all the time, it's more about playing the odds right and learning from the ones that don't pan out. The market teaches you fast if you're paying attention.

GRIFFAIN-2%

USELESS-13,83%

ALCH5,23%

PIPPIN-5,03%

Haha, there's nothing wrong with what you're saying, but how many people actually make money?

This truly reflects the reality of the crypto world; being right or wrong is just part of the norm. UFD's move was indeed correct, but in a game of probability, everyone has to accept it. The key point remains — staying alive is winning.

This is our daily routine—going all in and making a fortune, or losing everything with a single mistake. This circle is so exciting and brutal. I also followed that wave of UFD, and it indeed exploded, but there are also times when I hit a snag—it's all about probability games. Honestly, compared to predicting right or wrong, what matters more is whether you can survive and make money. Losses themselves are the best teachers. Some people boast about their perfect hits, but when a bear market hits, their true colors are revealed. The most frightening thing is arrogance. Why didn't you speak up when GRIFFAIN was rising? Now you're showing off your record? Unpredictable losses can't be avoided this time; you can only watch helplessly as slippage eats away half of your profits. The market teaches the harshest lessons—after a few liquidation experiences, you'll learn to respect it.

Some coins get hyped up just because they hit a few targets. I understand this mindset, haha, but it really is a game of chance. Maybe the next one will rug.

Just a few trading pairs and you can brag for a year. I'm tired of this routine. But to be fair, the UFD move was indeed impressive.

Haha, really daring to say that. Those coins last year indeed didn't crash, but after this round, I'm going to get scolded again.

Ha, it's that same "probability theory" again. As for me, I did indeed buy the dip a few times last year, and now they've all been halved. That's what you call grasping the probability.
