#密码资产动态追踪 On-chain liquidation waves are once again surfacing. Recently, while analyzing data, I found several large addresses being wiped out directly. The crypto market has never been sentimental; no matter how much the account is boosted, it can't withstand a single moment of hesitation—this principle was vividly demonstrated in the 2025 market trend.

Last year, the entire crypto space was like a silent battleground. Legends rose and fell, some accounts went from seven figures straight to zero, due to stubbornly leveraging high multiples to bet on a one-sided trend, ultimately becoming regulars on the on-chain liquidation list. There were also short-term traders who made a fortune but grew greedy at high prices, opening 40x leverage longs, only to see a sharp drop that lost nearly a billion, and they could only mock themselves with "money isn't real." Even whales holding large amounts of spot assets and seasoned Meme coin traders suffered big losses due to greed or falling into liquidity traps.

There are even more heartbreaking stories—frequent security incidents. Private keys of multi-signature wallets being stolen on the same device, hot wallets being compromised within minutes if not managed properly, hackers losing money in the market after their attacks... all these absurd stories have actually happened.

Currently, market capitalization fluctuates around 3 trillion. The flow of stablecoins and ETFs is a key indicator for future market trends, though short-term volatility still exists.

A few harsh lessons for everyone: First, don't gamble with essential living funds; once leverage exceeds 5x, it's essentially gambling. Second, large assets must be stored in cold wallets; security always comes before returns. Third, allocate no more than 5% of your funds to Meme coins, and be mentally prepared for the possibility of zero.

The crypto world is never short of wealth-creation myths; what’s missing are those who can survive until the end. Those who truly make and keep money are never the smartest, but the most disciplined and patient. $ETH 's performance is worth paying attention to—choosing the right direction and controlling the rhythm is the key.

Using 40x leverage to directly blow up an account is truly outrageous. The crypto world is a place with no mercy; greed for just one second can lead to a year's worth of debt. Making huge profits and still going all in shows a typical lack of awareness of when to stop. After seeing these stories, I firmly store my coins in a cold wallet; security is more important than anything. Even those whales can get wrecked, which shows that smart people are actually more prone to falling into traps. The ones who survive are really those who didn't overthink and just stuck to regular investing. The phrase "Leverage over 5x is gambling" should be engraved in your mind. 5% allocation to Meme coins is about right; not feeling bad if it goes to zero—that's the comfortable mindset. With such a fierce liquidation wave, you really need to see who is margin trading, and maybe there will be another big scandal this time.

Another wave of big players being wiped out, this is the norm in the crypto world... Dare to buy the dip with 40x leverage, serves you right. The article is well-written, but how many people can truly practice self-discipline? Anyway, I've seen too many greedy ghosts. How many times have I said this about cold wallets? Yet some still keep huge amounts in hot wallets and get completely drained. A 5% change in meme coins is still too much; I just avoid them to save myself from daily stress. Really, living to the end is a hundred times harder than making quick money.

Leverage once it gets out of control, there are no more survivors. How many dreams have been shattered by this wave of liquidations... Every time, we say lessons learned and to change next time, but then turn around and go for 40x again... Cold wallets really save lives, hot wallets are just gambling on when hackers will come to visit. Greed, ah, it can kill your account even more than diving. I think a 5% limit on Meme coins is still too much; going all in might be less risky? Those who make it to the end are indeed the disciplined ones. Not to mock, but the most boring people earn the most.

Another wave of big investors going bankrupt, watching the on-chain liquidation orders feels like looking at a death list. This is the daily life in the crypto world. 40x leverage? They really dare to open it, not afraid of returning to the pre-liberation era in a second. Security is truly terrifying. Losing a device in a few minutes? What’s the point of playing then? The point about cold wallets is well made. No matter how tempting the returns are, you need to stay alive to spend the money. Treat Meme coins like buying a lottery ticket, just need to monopolize 5%, anyway they will eventually be wiped out. Those who really make money are the ones quietly getting rich, not the experts showing off their trades every day.

It's the same old liquidation wave again, it seems some people still haven't learned their lesson. Leverage above 5x is pure gambling; you're just betting on luck. Cold wallets really need to be taken seriously; hot wallets are always risky no matter how long you keep them. To those guys who got liquidated at 40x, honestly, they deserve it. Greed has no limit. $ETH doesn't seem to have any special signals right now; volatility is just like that, get used to it. Those who survive until the end truly make money; they're much more reliable than those who chase quick gains and then disappear. Meme coins are the paradise for gamblers; 5% of your funds is enough, you can't afford to lose even a little more. Security > returns; this phrase is worth inscribing in gold.
