Last year, I went through a thrilling life-and-death battle at TRB, where I not only avoided an 80% crash but also made a tenfold profit against the odds! At that time, I was 50,000 in debt and almost gave up on the crypto world, but unexpectedly, this battle turned my fortunes around and I made 1 million. Looking back now, it all relied on these three lifesaving operations.

Two days before the crash, I noticed something was off. Those big players secretly transferred 26% of the circulating supply to exchanges, which clearly indicated they were about to run away. Even more outrageous, the funding rate soared to 2%, meaning that those who went long had to pay a huge 'protection fee' every day. The most suspicious thing was that the price on OKX was actually 20% higher than on Binance, which definitely indicated a problem. So, I decisively liquidated my position and opened a 20x short, setting my stop loss at $590, which wouldn’t incur much loss.

At 6 a.m. when the crash happened, I took profits in batches as planned: I sold half at $300, then 30% at $250, and finally got out completely at $200, averaging an 8.7x profit. The most clever move was using my profits to buy USDT as a hedge to prevent the exchange from playing tricks on me and liquidating my positions. When the price dropped to $180, on-chain data showed that big players were secretly accumulating, so I made a quick comeback and bought the dip, making another 1.8x profit two days later.

Throughout this entire process, I executed my plan like a robot—cutting losses when necessary and making moves when needed. Many people don’t struggle to understand the market; rather, they cannot control their impulses—clearly bearish but reluctant to close long positions, clearly needing to take profits but fantasizing about more gains. Remember, in this market, those who can strictly execute their strategies are the ones who ultimately survive.

Looking back now, this battle taught me the most important lesson:

Making money in the crypto world doesn’t require daily operations; seizing two or three major opportunities in a year is enough. Those who chase the ups and downs every day end up just paying transaction fees to the exchanges.
