Crypto Survival Principles: How to Profit Without Greed or Impulse
What 8 Years in the Market Taught Me About Winning Long-Term

Making money in crypto isn’t about luck — it’s about structure, discipline, and mental control.

Here’s how I made my first $10M in just 18 months — and then grew even faster in each bull cycle after. Interestingly, 75% of my profits came in just the last 6 months. Why? Because I had a clear system — and I stuck to it.

1. Beware the Contract Trap — It Quietly Bleeds You Dry
Leverage trading is a losing game. In all my years, I haven’t seen anyone win consistently using it. The ones who profit? The exchanges — they feed off your emotions and transaction fees.

Key truths:

99% of so-called leverage wins = pure survivor bias

Leverage won’t build your wealth — it’ll destroy it

My Rule: If you quit leverage, you stop financial self-sabotage.

2. The Critical Zone for Spot Traders
How to Manage Positions:

Slightly underwater (<50% loss)? Average down and hold until recovery.

Deeply stuck? Accept the wait — the next real cycle could be 2–4 years away.

Golden Rule:
Sell before the market tops — when everyone is euphoric. Exit before momentum breaks.

Most traders fail because they:

Sell too soon during the bull

Re-enter too late, driven by fear of missing out

My Rule: Set a firm profit target (e.g., +120%). Once hit, exit fully into cash — no debating.
Forget the hype of “potential 10x gains.”

3. Timing is Everything
Crypto markets behave like this:

70% sideways movement

20% in downtrends

Only 10% in true bullish runs

If you’re trying to learn mid-bull market, you’re already behind.

The formula:
Discipline beats emotion.
Systems outperform speculation.
Mentorship over guesswork.

Final Advice:
If you want to win in crypto over the long haul:
Respect market cycles.
Train your mindset.
Build a personal system.
Then let the market work in your favor.
