I. Core strategy: Value investing and risk diversification
Long-term holding of mainstream assets (HODL)
Select targets: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and other top 10 blue-chip projects by market capitalization, with historical annual returns of about 15-20% (2015-2024 data).
Logic: Smooth out volatility over time, for example, BTC surged 800% during the bull market of 2020-2021, but one must bear short-term drawdown risks of 30-50%.
Case: BTC fell to 3,800 in March 2020 and rose to 69,000 in November 2021, rewarding patient holders with over 17 times returns.
Dollar Cost Averaging strategy (DCA)
Action: Invest a fixed amount in BTC/ETH each month to reduce timing risk.
Data: During the bear market from 2018 to 2020, DCA strategy achieved about 200% returns on BTC, outperforming a one-time investment of 150%.
Tools: Use the automatic DCA feature on Coinbase and Binance.
II. Passive income: Staking and DeFi
Staking
Ethereum 2.0 staking: annual returns of 4-5%, with a minimum of 32 ETH (about $100,000) required, but zero-threshold staking can be achieved through platforms like Lido.
Risks: Smart contract vulnerabilities (e.g., Lido was attacked but did not cause fund loss).
DeFi liquidity mining
Select protocols: leading platforms like Curve, Aave, etc., with APY typically between 5-15%, and be aware of impermanent loss.
Case: In 2020, the CRV token reward program from Curve yielded over 100% annual returns for early participants, but project risks must be considered.
III. Low-risk arbitrage strategies
Cross-exchange arbitrage
Action: Buy BTC on Coinbase (high price) and sell on Binance (low price), with profits coming from the price difference (usually 0.1-2%).
Tools: Use CryptoWatch and TradingView to monitor price differences, and automate with tools like HaasOnline.
Stablecoin lending
Platforms: Aave, Compound, with annual returns of 4-8% (note liquidation risks).
Case: In 2022, USDC interest rates on Aave reached 8%, but sufficient collateral (like ETH) must be reserved to guard against price crashes.
IV. Risk control and execution recommendations
Fund allocation:
50% mainstream assets (BTC/ETH)
30% staking/DeFi
20% cash or stablecoins (to cope with extreme market conditions)
Tools and monitoring:
Use Blockfolio and Delta to track your asset portfolio.
Set stop-loss limits (e.g., exit if a single project loses more than 20%).
Compliance and security:
Only use reputable exchanges (Coinbase, Binance US).
Use hardware wallets (Ledger, Trezor) to store large amounts of assets.
V. Key risk warnings
Regulatory risk: The SEC's stance on crypto assets in the U.S. may affect market sentiment (e.g., the crackdown on BUSD in 2023 led to a 10% short-term market drop).
Project risk: 90% of DeFi protocols fail within three years (2022 data), and it is necessary to analyze TVL (Total Value Locked) and audit reports through platforms like DefiLlama.
Summary: Example of a steady path
Initial capital: $10,000
Allocation:
5,000 BTC/ETH Dollar Cost Averaging (monthly $500 for 10 months)
$3,000 deposited in Aave USDC lending (annualized 6%)
$2,000 purchased ETH 2.0 staking certificates (like rETH)
Expected annual returns: 12-18% (with 10-30% short-term volatility to bear)
Final advice: There is no absolute 'stability' in the crypto space, but through value investing, diversified allocation, and strict risk control, one can capture upside opportunities while controlling downside risk. Always remember: do not invest money that you cannot afford to lose.
