Can ordinary people change their wealth through the cryptocurrency circle? The answer is definitely yes, otherwise, so many people wouldn’t be flocking to it.

But there is a certain probability in this, which is the 80/20 rule we all know. In the financial market, 20% of people always earn 80% of the money, and traditional financial markets are no exception, and the circle may be even higher, around 90/10.

So we need to ponder this question: can I become one of those 20% people, or even one of the 20% within that 20%?

I am definitely not trying to scare you. If you blindly trust those who offer trades, run projects, or do trading, that’s a personal understanding issue.

Those who can survive in this circle and live relatively well may have deep insights.

Regardless of the reason, there are many who ultimately did not achieve results. The financial market does not look at the process, only the results, and there is no 'what if', only results.

Many people initially made money in the cryptocurrency market during the bull market, but the bear market doesn’t matter because they can’t lose much, especially for newcomers. Why didn’t they end up keeping the wealth they earned?

The main reasons are as follows:

1. In the early stages of the bull market, people often rely on boldness, dare to go all-in, and, with good luck, quickly earn wealth that exceeds their understanding. In the end, due to greed and dissatisfaction with the earnings, they want to make more, leading to profit withdrawal and eventually unwillingness to accept, increasing their investment or leveraging contracts, etc. Ultimately, what was gained through luck is returned to the market based on skill.

2. Understanding nothing, just listening to others say that making money here is easy, whether in spot trading or contracts – as long as it’s a bull market, you can earn by lying flat. At the beginning of the bull market, I was reluctant to invest heavily, but as it progressed, I invested more and more, chasing rises and selling on dips, while the main players were offloading, I rushed in.

Fundamentally.

3. Before entering the circle, due to insufficient understanding, many suffered losses in projects or trades. Burdened with debt, they thought they could make quick money in this circle. After earning a bit in the early bull market, they lost their respect for the market, ultimately leading to worsening situations.

In fact, in these years, many people and incidents encountered in the cryptocurrency circle have shown that those who earned money by luck seldom come out whole.

Even after successfully cashing out, there are very few in real life who can correctly utilize the money.

This is the real reason why ordinary people find it difficult to break through the circle through financial investment.

Having a bit of money brings out human weaknesses: greed, anger, delusion, sloth, and doubt, especially arrogance.

Previously, a member used less than 100,000 in capital during the last bull market, following our layout for spot trading. After March 12, 2020, he laid out $4,500 in Bitcoin and $110 in Ethereum.

I cleared my positions when Bitcoin was at $63,000 in April 2021, and Ethereum was cleared at over $3,300. The rest was cashed out just before the major drop on May 19, indeed earning nearly 3 million.

But when we met this year, he had already mortgaged his house and was deep in debt, making the entire process lamentable.

In just over two years, why has there been such a dramatic change?

He said that after the members escaped at the peak, he made us stay out of the market for a year and a half waiting for the diamond bottom to appear before buying in again. He thought his abilities were impressive, earning so much from a few tens of thousands, and was tempted to jump into the stock market. Everyone knows what the stock market has been like in the past two years.

After experiencing losses, I became unwilling and turned to high-leverage contracts in cryptocurrencies, which led to the current situation.

Including this time’s small bull layout, I can’t take out a single cent.

A person can be without money for a long time, but when you have money and then return to a life without it, to be honest, very few are willing to face reality.

Including myself in the early years, I felt the same way. I can deeply relate to this feeling.

Let’s mention another case. This member was quite lucky, using 80,000 to earn around 1 million.

She is relatively lucky and very content. In a fourth or fifth-tier city, she exchanged her old house for a new one and bought her husband a new car. After two years, she has spent almost all of her savings.

This time, the small bull market has returned to the past, and I can't even take out the 80,000 I invested in the last bull market.

Ordinary people have not experienced too much; their capacity for wealth is limited, coupled with an arrogant heart that cannot absorb what others say.

Not knowing how to delay gratification has wasted the first bucket of gold, making it difficult to achieve financial freedom and break through the circle.

Two people, both achieving good results in the bull market, but their endings are vastly different.

Others, however, have waited for this wave of bull market to buy in with the funds earned in the last bull market, aside from necessary expenses.

After waiting for this wave of the bull market to end, the same people but different choices. Looking back now, which is easier to break through?

And those who are able to break through the circle, including myself, have a common point.

That is, I have never stopped learning, especially in the long process of the bull market, using the time others spend scrolling through Douyin or playing games.

Time spent on drama, drinking, and playing cards was devoted to enhancing self-awareness and ability, and cultivating one's capacity for wealth. If you don’t settle down and grow during a bear market, when the bull market arrives and your account numbers change daily, can you withstand it?

Thus, it can be said that ordinary people can break through the circle through the cryptocurrency market, but you need to have clear goals and abilities. Investing in the financial market is not a sprint; it’s a marathon of life. It’s not about how fast you can run at one moment, but whether you can keep running.

If you can still see this part of today’s article, then congratulations, you possess one essential investment skill: patience.

I don’t know if you will continue to be in the cryptocurrency market in the future or for how long, but I will be here for the rest of my life, deeply cultivating in this industry.

Go.

Trading is not about getting rich with one trade; it’s about reasonable profits that can be achieved sustainably, steadily, and with high probability, allowing one to continuously acquire wealth.

Professionals create value, and details determine success or failure.
