This young man is Liang Xi, who is known as a genius trader in the cryptocurrency circle.
Readers who are unfamiliar with the cryptocurrency world may be curious, who is Liang Xi?
In fact, this is not the first time that Liang Xi has attracted people's attention. His highlight moment actually began four years ago.
Four years ago, May 19, 2021, was a tragic anniversary for the cryptocurrency community. On that day, Bitcoin set a record single-day drop of 33%, and a number of old cryptocurrencies even halved in one day, known as the "519 crash". However, Liang Xi rolled his position and shorted during this crash, making a profit of more than 10 million yuan with a principal of 1,000 yuan. Since then, the title of genius trader has accompanied Liang Xi and spread all over the Internet, and he has become a hot topic in the cryptocurrency circle.
In the following months, Liang Xi encountered a continuous rise in the Bitcoin market. Due to improper operation, he suffered a series of liquidations and suffered heavy losses. According to his own disclosure on social media, as of the beginning of 2025, he had a debt of up to 200 million yuan, and at the same time faced emotional betrayal and the breakdown of family relationships. He seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
However, it is incredible that after four years of silence, Liang Xi was able to make a comeback. This plot sounds like a plot in a fictional novel, but it actually happened to him. This makes people wonder whether Liang Xi's success is due to his extraordinary talent or just because of his good luck. Can he break the curse of losing more than winning in the past and achieve a real turnaround in this comeback?
Liang Xi's story is full of absurdity and drama, but it is so real that it cannot be ignored.
1. Personality and experience in youth
When talking about Liang Xi, we have to explore his family background and upbringing. Liang Xi, a young man born in Jinan, Shandong in 2002, embarked on the road to wealth at the age of 19. However, his growth path was not smooth. Through social media, we can feel the deep conflict between him and his family. His rebellious character caused him to frequently quarrel with his father during his childhood and adolescence.
Despite a challenging family environment, Liang Xi has shown extraordinary potential in many areas. He learned to swim at a young age and achieved excellent results, but unfortunately, he was ostracized by his teammates in the swimming team, which led to depression in elementary school. He then turned his interest to computer games and became an extraordinary master of League of Legends in the sixth grade. After dropping out of junior high school, he won attention on the Chushou live broadcast platform with his top three performances in the King of Glory Peak Competition and the top scorer Liu Bei. These experiences of Liang Xi prove that he has outstanding talents, but also reveal that his life seems to always be accompanied by setbacks, indicating that he may experience ups and downs in the future.
It is particularly noteworthy that Liang Xi was sent to a school to treat his addiction to online games by his father. According to him, this experience left him with deep psychological trauma and even caused him to suffer from schizophrenia and multiple personality disorder. This special experience undoubtedly had a profound impact on his personality and behavior patterns, and also laid the groundwork for his later radical style in the trading market and his flamboyant and crazy image on social media.

Liang Xi has had deep conflicts with his family since childhood.
2. After entering the cryptocurrency circle with 31,000 yuan, he quickly gained tens of millions of assets and then quickly returned to zero
Liang Xi's trading career began in 2020. He used his father's identity information to open his first trading account in his life, officially entering the cryptocurrency circle. On May 19, 2021, the Bitcoin market experienced violent fluctuations and prices fell sharply. With his aggressive trading strategy of high-leverage short selling and only an initial capital of 1,000 yuan, Liang Xi quickly accumulated a huge profit of nearly 40 million yuan, and became famous in the cryptocurrency circle overnight.
The trading strategy adopted by Liang Xi can be summarized in simple language as the "eyes-closed shooting method". This method does not rely on complex trading techniques, but on a mentality that is almost like gambling: intensively opening short or long positions over a period of time, leveraging to the full, and moving forward courageously. As long as you are lucky enough and guess the right direction, you can make amazing profits through rolling positions. On May 19, Liang Xi relied on this strategy to insist on shorting Bitcoin and took advantage of the amazing market decline to become famous.
However, as the old saying goes: "It is impossible for a person to hold on to money beyond his own cognition." Liang Xi's peak moment did not last long. As the Bitcoin market rebounded strongly from its low point in the second half of 2021 and continued to rise, Liang Xi gradually lost his keen insight into the market due to his habit of short selling. He suffered liquidations one after another, and eventually not only lost all his profits, but also incurred heavy debts.
In the world of cryptocurrency, which is full of variables and opportunities, Liang Xi's story seems to be just a microcosm of many gambler legends - a young man experienced a cycle of sudden wealth and zero. However, if Liang Xi is defined only in this way, it would be too one-sided. There is no shortage of gamblers in the cryptocurrency circle, and similar stories are staged every year, but the reason why Liang Xi stands out from the crowd is not just because he is a successful gambler.
What makes Liang Xi special is his extraordinary ability to generate traffic. In this game of numbers and codes, he seems to have a kind of magic that can constantly create sensational controversial topics in the cycle of getting rich, going bankrupt, borrowing money, and repaying debts. Not only did he not disappear in these ups and downs, but he always returned in a more eye-catching way, making everyone's eyes always focus on his every move.
3. How can the "crazy personality" of social media manipulate traffic through private life?
Liang Xi's style of expression on social media is unique, which can be summarized as "dramatic" and "abstract". His speeches are like self-written and self-directed Internet dramas, sometimes immersed in sadness, sometimes showing sneers and irony, and he always seems to find his own position at the forefront of public opinion.
Liang Xi is good at making dramatic reversals of emotions and circumstances in a very short period of time. In the morning, he might be lamenting on Twitter: "My account has been blown up again, and I feel I have nowhere to go." But in the afternoon, his style suddenly changed. He began to generously distribute Alipay red envelopes and shouted: "Brothers, I have turned over, come and get the money to celebrate!" This dramatic change makes it difficult to tell whether he is truly expressing his emotions or carefully planning a traffic feast to attract and maintain public attention through extreme emotional fluctuations.
In the cryptocurrency circle, Liang Xi's "combat power" is not only reflected in the trading field, but also in his performance in online verbal battles. He never easily confronts unknown people, but chooses to engage in fierce verbal battles with some well-known people. From the early tit-for-tat with trader Xiaoxia on Weibo, to the mutual tearing war with U Shang Fu Lu Shou on Twitter, to the recent "precision strike" against the well-known blogger Hongkong Doll, Liang Xi's verbal skills are unique, and his foul mouth is not inferior to any "old gun" on the Internet.
△Some people even compiled Liang Xi’s Twitter history of grudges.
In addition to the transactions and social media turmoil, Liang Xi's love life must also be a focus of controversy.
Because his girlfriend cheated him out of a large sum of money, he lost control of his emotions during a live broadcast and announced directly on the live broadcast that he would "drink pesticide to commit suicide", but he ultimately failed.
Liang Xi is not shy about expressing his personal desires on social media. He once publicly shared his way of "releasing stress" on Weibo, saying that he needs "physiological adjustments" at least twice a day to vent the extreme emotions caused by high-frequency trading.
At the beginning of 2025, Liang Xi once again became the focus of public attention because of his personal love life. He publicly accused his current girlfriend of cold violence and domestic violence, and even accused her of cheating on him, which caused him great harm and caused him to "completely fall into depression." However, this accusation did not last long. A few weeks later, Liang Xi posted a more extreme statement on Twitter, saying that in order to concentrate on trading, he had taken transgender drugs for two consecutive days to suppress his sexual desire, and said that he would feel disgusted when seeing pictures related to men and women in the future.
For Liang Xi today, emotions are no longer his basic emotional needs, but are seen as an "external interference factor" that may seriously interfere with trading performance. In order to eliminate this interference, he has adopted extreme external intervention measures in an attempt to achieve the goal of focusing on trading. Although this approach is extreme, it also reflects his persistence and pursuit of the trading career.
4. Comeback
Time goes on to 2025, and the BTC market experienced a series of declines at the end of February. During this downward trend, the well-known trader Liang Xi made significant gains in both long and short directions with his superb high-frequency trading skills, and once again accumulated profits of more than one million US dollars. The news of Liang Xi's successful turnaround quickly spread widely on the Internet, attracting widespread attention and heated discussion.
As his trading performance soared, Liang Xi's popularity also rose. He began to post frequently on social platforms to celebrate his "successful turnaround". He not only shared screenshots of real-time transactions as proof, but also distributed Alipay red envelopes of 10,000 yuan on Twitter every day for five consecutive days, and used this as an opportunity to launch the slogan of "targeted poverty alleviation". In addition, Liang Xi also announced the launch of a "debt repayment plan", stating that he would repay the debts accumulated since 2021 one by one, showing his sense of responsibility and integrity.
At the same time, doubts never ceased. Some people thought he just "bet on the right direction", while others mocked him: "Liang Xi is no longer a trader, he is the top marketing star of the script-killing in the cryptocurrency circle."
Liang Xi himself did not shy away from these questions. He repeatedly stated on Twitter that he was no longer trading for the sake of trading, but for "atonement" and to "save the world."
He said: "Others become internet celebrities to make money and to harvest you, I make money to become an internet celebrity, I am here to save you, the Liang family has been silent for four years, this round is the time for us to break out of the cocoon, we must unite and fight against the evil exchange together, I will use the contract to bankrupt the owner of the exchange and make the exchange beg me not to make money from him!"
No one knows whether Liang Xi can finally prove once again that "luck is greater than strength", or whether he will really fall into the abyss forever one day. His experience seems bizarre, but it seems particularly reasonable in the high-volatility casino of the cryptocurrency circle, so that when I see the news of Liang Xi's turnaround, I feel it is expected.
5. Thoughts and Conclusion
Liang Xi's story is more like a long-running Internet experiment than a trader's growth history. He constantly creates climaxes with controversy. Every counterattack is like a live broadcast script, and every failure is like a plot point for the next round of the plot.
Is Liang Xi a genius trader, a traffic chess player, or a "real patient" of the Internet?
In his story, gambler-like high-leverage high-frequency trading is inseparable from his extreme personality.
Liang Xi's contradictions may come from his childhood growth experience and long-term mental stress, which are also fully reflected in his trading style. High-yield trading style is often accompanied by high risks, which may lead to extreme debts.
Regarding the question of "Is Liang Xi a genius?", perhaps there is no need for a clear answer. He may not be the best trader, but he is indeed a "genius actor" who is extremely good at playing with traffic. Whether it is posting profit screenshots, publicizing family grievances, or fighting with various people, he can always make the traffic focus on him sharply and put himself at the center of the topic.
Is he the real winner, or is he destined to become a victim of traffic?
I'm afraid only time can give the answer
