#美联储回购协议计划 Many new coin holders share a common fantasy:


As long as I don't move, after the shakeout, it's my turn to take off.

It sounds very confident. But the cruel reality is—funds battles are never about who can endure, but about who understands the rules of this game.

The market tests you in four common ways.

**The first is called the quick knife cuts through the mess.** The price suddenly drops sharply, not to a certain level, but with a simple purpose: to destroy your confidence. All you see are green candlesticks, and all you think is "Will it keep falling?" Projects with solid fundamentals are often bottom-fished by institutions in panic; those with less consensus, this decline is often just the beginning, with more drops to come.

**The second is the most exhausting—slow decline combined with consolidation.** No sudden crash, just a gradual slide day by day, with no rebound in sight and no hope in sight. Leveraged traders are eaten away at by costs step by step; unleveraged traders are worn down by time and willpower. In the end, those who cut losses and exit give reasons that sound noble, but in fact, they just can't bear the mental exhaustion.

**The third is intense volatility.** Prices jump up and down, each rebound making you think a reversal is coming, each fall crushing your hopes. If you don't sell, it keeps tormenting you; if you try to buy the dip, it immediately moves against you. This is not an opportunity, but a test of your emotional tolerance.

**The fourth, most covert—opinion reversal.** There are no technical changes yet, but various voices, interpretations, and viewpoints mix together, forming an emotional wave. Many think they are making rational choices, but in reality, they are just transferring chips along with the crowd's sentiment.

Those who survive are not relying on stubborn persistence.

But truly understanding—why do I hold this asset? At what price should I enter? What signals should I withdraw on?

It's not about holding on with faith, but about making decisions based on cognition.

$ZBT $BANANA The same applies to projects like this. The most genuine things in the market are not promises or slogans, but the flow of chips and the cycle of emotions. When you can stay unaffected by price fluctuations, calmly judge the right moments to enter or exit, you truly stand on the advantageous side of this game.

Honestly, I've experienced all four methods, and the most ruthless one is the slow downward trend. The mentality can be worn down to the point of collapse. Persistence is fake; staying alive is real. People who understand the rules never rely on faith to tough it out. Watching the market, analyzing chip flow—this is what it means to stay alive. In simple terms, it's about cognitive decision-making, not a test of willpower. Understanding this is the entry level. The tactic of reversing public opinion is the easiest to trap people; many haven't thought through what they're actually doing. $ZBT $BANANA These also can't escape this pattern; no one can win by lying down. Those who are not led by the price are the true winners; everything else is just self-comfort.

Are you kidding? Just talking about washing and flying away? Look at how many new retail investors are caught in it. It's not a bad point, but most people simply can't stay calm and make rational judgments, they're just fooling themselves. Damn, the second method is the most ruthless, slowly wearing down your willpower, even more painful than a crash. The flow of chips is the most realistic; don't be brainwashed by public opinion. Doing your own homework is the key. Those who truly survive are often the ones without leverage and with an exit plan; everything else is nonsense. The market is just a reflection of the emotional cycle; whoever controls their emotions wins. That's why I never go all-in; it's really exhausting mentally. Be especially cautious with projects like $BANANA; the institutions' tricks are right here.

That hits too close to home. I've been stuck with the second type ever since. Watching the green line slowly slide down every day, I've become numb.

To be honest, most people are being harvested in turn by these four methods, and they still comfort themselves. I've seen so many people die on the phrase "You can take off without moving," and the result? Either they get hammered and cut their losses immediately, or they get worn down and surrender. The key is to have your own logic—know when to enter and when to exit. Without that, even the strongest mindset is useless. Really, persistence is pointless; clarity is what truly matters.

That's right, stubbornly holding on is never a strategy; the key is to have your own logic. --- The second type of torment I fear the most, worse than a drop in price. --- The reversal of public opinion hit home; it seems most people are just following their emotions. --- Cognition > Belief, this is a phrase that must be engraved in your mind. --- Be more cautious when looking at projects like ZBT; smaller tokens have more intense emotional cycles. --- I've experienced all four of the methods you mentioned. Now I just want to understand one thing: if it's time to withdraw, just withdraw; don't be greedy. --- The ones who truly make money are not those who stubbornly hold on, but those who know when to cut losses.
