Recently, I figured out a problem in Lista ecosystem arbitrage—making quick money, but losing just as fast. Then I came up with a method using a dual-wallet model to lock in profits, and the results were surprisingly good.

The core idea is simple: create a separate small wallet dedicated to storing each arbitrage profit, like installing a secondary fuel tank in a car. The main wallet continues to execute strategies, but any U—whether five dollars or fifty dollars—earned is immediately transferred into this secondary wallet, then set to automatically convert the balance into USD1 for investment returns.

Why is this trick so effective? First, it saves mental effort. Profits don’t need to be manually managed; they automatically flow into the investment pool. Second, it stabilizes your mindset. The main wallet is actively trading in the market, but seeing the USD1 balance in the secondary wallet steadily increase makes you feel more secure. Third, it’s a form of forced savings, which can restrain the impulse for frequent operations.

Another clever use: if the main wallet urgently needs funds, you can temporarily transfer some from the secondary wallet for emergencies. Once the strategy yields returns, you can pay back the principal plus interest. This way, money is always in motion—attack when needed, accumulate when appropriate.

After sticking to this method for a while, the USD1 amount in the secondary wallet has grown significantly. Compared to the thrill of earning a few hundred dollars from single arbitrage trades, watching this steadily increasing number gives a greater sense of achievement. This is the power of compound interest—seemingly insignificant profits, when accumulated, become real wealth.
