90% of crypto millionaires go broke.
Be the 10%. Here’s how:
Even if you’re not a millionaire yet — consider this your survival guide.
1. Realize you're not invincible.
Most blow up right after they start thinking they’re geniuses.
Confidence kills when it blinds you to risk.
2. Take profits. Aggressively.
Fortunes are made by selling into strength.
If you don’t sell on the way up, the market will sell for you on the way down.
3. Don’t inflate your lifestyle.
New car. New watch. New penthouse.
Then the market dips — and you’re forced to dump your bags at the worst time.
Stay lean. Stay liquid.
4. Separate trading money from living money.
Trading capital is not rent.
It’s not your wedding fund either.
Emotions don’t belong in your portfolio.
5. Respect cash.
Cash isn’t trash — it’s survival fuel.
It buys you time. It buys you dips. It buys you peace.
6. Avoid the “next big thing” syndrome.
Success makes people reckless.
They start swinging at everything, thinking they’re untouchable.
Most go broke chasing noise.
7. Trust your gut.
Euphoria = exit.
Despair = accumulate.
The crowd is almost always wrong.
8. Study the cycles.
Crypto moves in brutal waves.
If you expect endless up-only, you’re already dead.
Learn the rhythm or drown in it.
9. Don’t LARP as a VC.
You’re not Sequoia.
Stop throwing $50K at every pre-sale hyped by influencers.
Discipline > hype.
10. Protect your mind.
A bad trade hurts your wallet.
A bad mindset ruins your future.
Mental discipline = financial survival.
11. Pay yourself first.
Take wins and turn them into freedom:
Land. A retirement account. Time with loved ones.
Crypto is the tool — not the whole castle.
12. You are not your portfolio.
Your PnL is not your personality.
Anchor your identity to the market, and it will break you.
13. Build something outside of trading.
A business.
An audience.
A skill.
Real wealth is freedom from the market, not dependence on it.
