1. The 'Entry Ticket' Obtained by Using the Electric Car Deposit

In the spring of 2021, I was counting the takeout orders I had just completed in my rented room — 3128. After paying the rent, I had only 3000 left, and I happened to see a screenshot in my friend circle showing someone made 20,000 from Bitcoin. At that time, I didn't even understand what 'blockchain' was; I just knew that the deposit for the electric bike could be exchanged for 'coins', so I bound my Meituan account to an exchange.


The first time I bought a coin, I chose an altcoin called 'Mars Coin', and because it had 'Mars' in its name, I thought it could go to the moon. I invested 2000, and it rose 18% in three days. I was shaking as I stared at my phone screen, wanting to sell but also hoping 'to hold for two more days and make it 5000', but on the fourth day, it plummeted by 30%. When I finally decided to cut my losses, there was only 1200 left in my account — that was when I first realized: money in the crypto world is made by selling, not by holding.

2. The 'Six Rules of Military Conduct' After Being Beaten

1. The 'Panic of Buying the Dip' on the Ninth Day

When I only had 800 left, I saw a big influencer say late at night, 'a rebound is certain after 9 consecutive days of decline'. In May 2021, BTC dropped from 50,000 to 38,000, having already fallen for 7 days. On the 9th day, when it fell to 35,000, I pooled together my electric bike's traffic violation fine money and bought 0.023 BTC. On the 10th morning, BTC suddenly rebounded to 39,000, and I quickly sold it for a profit of 800 — this was my first time recovering money through 'buying the dip'. Later, I learned that manipulators rarely wash out for more than 9 days, as retail investors' patience is just that long.

2. The '3 PM Curse' of Quantitative Machines

In June, I followed the trend to buy a certain platform coin, which rose for 3 days. On the fourth day at 2 PM, everyone in the group was shouting 'it will surge 10 times', and I hesitated while watching the K-line. Suddenly, I remembered what a big influencer said: 'If it rises for 4 days, it will crash at 3 PM on the fifth day', so I hurriedly sold at 2:50 PM. Sure enough, as soon as it hit 3 PM, the coin price plummeted from $1.2 to $0.8 — later I learned that many quantitative programs are set to 'automatically take profit after 4 consecutive rises', which became an unwritten 'crash time' in the crypto circle.

3. The 'Volume Miracle' on the Seventh Day of Consolidation

In July, I targeted a DeFi coin that had been flat for 6 days, with daily fluctuations of no more than 2%. On the 7th day in the afternoon, the trading volume suddenly jumped from 1 million to 3 million, and the price surged 5% instantly. I remembered the rule 'a breakout follows a volume increase' and immediately invested 500. Three days later, this coin went from $2 to $4.5, and I sold it at $4, earning 1000 — later I realized this was a classic scheme of 'accumulating during consolidation + testing with increased volume' by the main force.

3. The 'Snowball Ledger' from 3000 to 100,000

Stage One: 3000 → 6000 (2 months)

  • Used 'buying the dip' to buy BTC, earning 800;

  • Used 'increased volume follow-up' to play with DeFi coins, earning 1000;

  • Followed the 'reduce holdings after 2 consecutive rises' rule to avoid 3 instances of pullback losses.

Stage Two: 6000 → 20,000 (3 months)

  • Discovered the 'Three-Five-Seven Law': the coin ranked third in the growth list must rush into the top five, and the fifth must rush into the top seven;

  • Case Study: Bought a coin ranked 5th in growth, sold it 2 days later when it was ranked 7th, earning 30%;

  • Strictly implement 'if you don't earn back the transaction fee the next day, cut losses', suffered losses 4 times, losing 50-100 each time, but preserved the principal.

Stage Three: 20,000 → 100,000 (At the end of the bull market)

  • In November 2021, when BTC surged to 60,000, I used 'dollar-cost averaging + partial profit-taking':
    ▶ I dollar-cost averaged BTC from 30,000 to 50,000, selling 50% when it rose 200%;
    ▶ I dollar-cost averaged ETH from 1200 to 4000, selling 30% when it rose 300%;

  • I ultimately cashed out 108,000 at the peak of the bull market, and my hands trembled when withdrawing to my bank account.

4. The 'Blood Loss Lesson' from the Back Seat of an Electric Car

1. The 'Altcoin Trap' You Must Avoid

I once put all my 3000 into a certain 'metaverse coin', because the group said 'it will hit mainstream exchanges next week'. As a result, the coin price went from $0.5 to $1.2 without me selling, and later the project team ran away, causing it to drop to zero — this made me understand: 99% of people don't die from the fall, but from 'waiting to break even'.

2. The 'Nightmare' of Investing with Living Expenses

In August, I borrowed 5000 for living expenses to play contracts, using 10x leverage to buy ETH. I initially made 2000, but after a 1% dip in the early morning, I was liquidated. That week, I only ate instant noodles twice a day and almost got into a car accident while delivering food — from then on, I remembered: only invest money you can afford to lose, don't gamble your living expenses for tomorrow.

5. The Current Me and That Electric Bike

I am still delivering food now, but I have added a notebook in my bike basket to record my daily trading insights. Out of 100,000 capital, I saved 50,000 in a fixed deposit, bought 30,000 worth of BTC as the base, and played with 20,000 in short-term trading. Every time I take a break between orders, I open TradingView to check the K-line, but I no longer stare at the screen and lose sleep like I did before.


Once, while delivering milk tea to a client, I saw him trading coins in the office, cursing. I suddenly recalled how I felt during my first liquidation. Wanting to make money is not wrong, but one must first learn 'not to lose money' — this is what 3000 taught me.
