#数字资产市场洞察 38 years old, with 8 years of experience, earned 30 million with the "343 batch method".
At the age of 30, I jumped headfirst into the whirlpool of the crypto market without hesitation. In these 8 years, I have seen BTC rise from 5000 to 69000, and I have also seen it fall back to 15000 from its peak. More importantly, I have witnessed too many smart people exit the market due to a single misjudgment, and I have seen quite a few lucky newcomers end up losing the most.
A friend asked me if I have a special talent, and some guessed it was due to luck. To be honest, neither is true. The reason I have been able to earn stable profits over these 8 years is because of a seemingly simple but extremely effective "343 phased investment method."
This method doesn't have any high-end theoretical packaging; instead, it's a bit "silly." But it's this "silliness" that allows me to remain calm during severe market fluctuations and has kept me from ever going all in. Today, I'll take Bitcoin as a case study and completely break down this method for you.
**Phase 1: 30% initial position, small and steady**
For example, if I have 120,000. I definitely wouldn't put all of it in at once. The first step is to only take 30%, which is 36,000.
Many people think this is too conservative and are afraid of making less profit. But in reality, starting with a small position is not about whether you earn a lot or a little; it's a matter of mindset. When you only invest 36,000, even if you have a short-term floating loss of 50%, it's only a loss of 18,000 — if you can handle that, your mindset will remain stable. Once your mindset is disturbed, all subsequent decisions will be wrong.
Moreover, entering with a small position has an invisible benefit: you leave enough ammunition for subsequent additional purchases. This is not about seeking insurance, but rather preparing for the proactive strikes to come.
**Phase Two: 40% gradual accumulation to average down costs**
After the initial position is established, it enters the most challenging phase that tests patience.
If the market rises, I won't be envious and chase the high; instead, I will set a clear pullback range - for example, if it pulls back by more than 10%, I will gradually increase my position. If the market falls, I won't panic either, but will add to my position according to the established rhythm: for every drop of about 10%, I will add a portion. This way, I will gradually fill in 40% of my intermediate position.
What is the core of this stage? It's not about guessing the market bottom, but rather about averaging down your cost by adding to your position in batches. Suppose you first bought at $10,000 for 36,000, then added again when it dropped to $8,000, and added once more when it fell to $6,000—your average cost will be much lower than $6,000. Even if it later rebounds but doesn't return to $10,000, you can still break even or even make a profit.
This is why I never regret adding any position. Because increasing the position itself is a risk-reducing action, not a risk-increasing one.
**Stage Three: 30% Trend Adding Position, Lock in Profits**
The final 30% position is key for me to confirm the trend and lock in overall profits.
This step must not be rushed. My principle is: I will only put in the last 30% when the mid-term trend of Bitcoin is completely stable and both the fundamentals and technicals point upwards. This is not being conservative, but rather ruthless. Because the previous 70% already has sufficient profits as a cushion, the last 30% of the increase becomes "betting on the trend with profits" rather than "betting on the direction with principal."
The benefit of doing this is that the entire process is clear and thorough—there are no ambiguous intermediate states, and no desperate feeling of being forced to cut losses due to over-leveraged positions.
**Why this method is effective**
It's actually very simple: - The first step is to make you feel secure, so you won't exit due to initial fluctuations. - The second step is to take the initiative to reduce costs, turning the market downturn into an opportunity rather than a threat. - The third step is to turn your greed into something planned, grounded, and certain.
By combining the three stages, you don't need to predict market tops or bottoms, nor do you need to rely on luck. Even if your judgment is off, the previous gradual investments will help cushion you. Over the past 8 years, I have been able to maintain returns of over 30 million, relying on this kind of thinking—seeking steady progress instead of aiming for a meteoric rise.
If you've also been exhausted by the market's fluctuations, you might want to try this method. It won't make you rich overnight, but it can help you understand a bit better amid the ups and downs.
