#数字资产市场动态 It only took 60 days for my investment to soar from 500,000 to 6,350,000—That summer in 2019, I woke up every day looking at the top gainers, and I’d close my eyes dreaming of luxury cars and villas. At that time, I confidently posted on Moments: "Making money is easier than breathing!" accompanied by a Bitcoin candlestick chart skyrocketing straight up.
I truly thought I had found the secret.
But three months later, BTC plummeted from $20,000, and the 6.35 million instantly shrank to just 80,000 stuck in a contract. The red words on the screen, "Liquidation completed," I stared at it for half an hour without blinking.
That moment, I realized: no matter how fierce luck is, the market will double it back.
In these eight years, I’ve seen too many people treat market trends as skills. In a bull market, they shout "faith"; in a bear market, they just buy in. There was a guy who mortgaged his house in 2021 to go all-in on a certain coin, and it multiplied eight times—he refused to sell, but in the end, he got liquidated and lost his house. Many others got wrecked on second-tier platforms, assets wiped out instantly.
Gradually, I started to reflect. Those who survive three cycles of bull and bear markets in crypto are never relying on divine operations, but on the ability to survive.
I turned that gambler’s instinct into discipline. Now, my positions are always in three parts: a core holding of BTC and ETH for long-term, a swing trading grid for medium-term, and only speculative altcoins for high-risk trades. Others see me as steady as an old man, but this stability was earned with the tuition of six million.
Another painful lesson: if your coins aren’t in your own hands, they’re not truly yours. I was lucky to escape a platform’s exit scam because about 80% of my assets had already been transferred to a cold wallet. No matter how convenient exchanges are, they’re just channels; true asset security depends on yourself.
Every day, there are "inside information" rumors in the market, but those who actually profit are always the quiet, patient, and waiting ones.
My account, from that remaining 80,000, gradually climbed back to 20 million. No miracles, only rules and self-control. I may not be earning as fast as back then, but every profit I make is safely in my pocket.
The biggest lesson in crypto is this: rapid growth isn’t skill; protecting your profits is.
Now, I no longer chase hundredfold myths. I just want to bring more people along to steadily navigate these waves. In the past, I was stumbling around in the dark; now, I have a light in my hand, shining all the time.
