I am 30 years old this year, and I dived into the crypto world at 22. I aim to reach eight-digit assets by 2024-2025. I've never dealt with shady businesses, and my biggest insight can be summed up in two words: mindset. Technology is a crutch; mindset is the backbone—here is a survival guide forged from real money:
1. Market Anchor Point: Understand BTC as the stabilizing force.
1. Crypto Market Barometer: For 90% of the time, Bitcoin is the engine of price movements. Ethereum, being a hard currency, occasionally has its own independent market, but 99% of altcoins are shadows of BTC; when it coughs, the whole circle catches a cold.
2. USDT Reverse Law: BTC and USDT are like a seesaw—when USDT is at a premium (for example, above 6.8), it indicates panic selling, and BTC is likely to fall; conversely, when BTC surges, it becomes a safe window to exchange for USDT. I've used this strategy for eight years without failure.
2. Time Code: Watching the market is not as good as watching the patterns.
- Midnight Arbitrage: There are always anomalies between 0-1 AM; placing orders before sleep is most rewarding—like when BTC is at 100,000, place a buy order at 98,000 and a sell order at 102,000 to profit from the price difference. I tried it for a week and made a 3% profit.
- Morning Trend Code: 6-8 AM is the intra-day direction controller:
✅ If it falls continuously from 0 to 6 AM and is still falling before 8 AM → decisively buy the dip, with a 70% chance of a rebound on that day.
✅ If it rises continuously from 0 to 6 AM and is still rising before 8 AM → sell when it peaks, as the probability of a retracement in the afternoon is very high.
- 5 PM Alarm: The East Coast opening magic spell; how many times has BTC suddenly surged/dropped at exactly 5 PM? Remember to be at your computer at this time; it's more thrilling than watching a horror movie.
3. Practical Iron Rules: The dividing line between novices and veterans.
1. Reject FOMO Rule: Don't panic if a coin with trading volume drops—my LINK purchase in 2019 dropped 40%, but after 28 days, it doubled; in 2021, SHIB fell through the floor, but after holding for 3 months, it gained 12 times. Remember: as long as it’s not a scam coin, it will eventually recover; a sharp drop is an opportunity to buy in batches.
2. Lazy Person's Profit Method: Don't fumble with spot trading; I've done the math: buying 1 million BTC in 2018 and holding until now has earned me 370% more than frequent trading. Real money is made by 'enduring'; those who watch the market daily end up paying transaction fees to exchanges.
3. Black Friday Misconception: Don't believe the nonsense that 'Fridays must fall'; on Friday, May 17, 2024, BTC surged by 20%, and on Friday, March 29, 2025, it consolidated—rather than believing in esoteric theories, check the Federal Reserve's official website for any new developments before bed.
4. Ultimate Mindset: The underlying logic of an eight-digit account.
- Position control is vital: Always keep 30% of your funds as 'coffin money.' In 2022, I relied on this 30% to buy the dip on ARB after the LUNA crash, recouping 60% of my capital.
- Counterintuitive actions: When others panic, I buy in batches; when others shout orders, I turn off my phone and sleep—when BTC fell from 60,000 to 48,000 in April 2024, everyone in the community was complaining while I was investing 10,000 USDT daily. Later, when it rose to 100,000, those who complained were still waiting to break even.
The crypto world is not a casino; it is a battleground for realizing one's understanding. Remember: those who can turn 10,000 into 10 million are not necessarily the most skilled technically, but they know how to remain calm in times of frenzy and to sow seeds in times of despair. Every penny you lose now is tuition for making money in the future—provided you can survive first.
As the market continues to change, we must closely monitor market signals and seize new entry opportunities. Stay tuned, and let's navigate the bull market together to capture this major opportunity!
