In the crypto world, some people monetize their cognition, some rely on luck to turn the tables, but there are always some people who are destined to 'bleed' for the market from the day they enter. The following four types of people can be called 'high-risk groups' for losing big money; see if you are one of them:
One, Contract Gamblers: Using leverage to accelerate wealth destruction
The most typical operation of this type of person is: just entering the market, they open 100 times leverage, feel like 'the Buffett of crypto' after a few small profits, and then go all in. They have zero concept of 'position management' and 'stop-loss and take-profit,' only seeing 'the myth of getting rich,' yet cannot see the liquidation red line behind the contracts.
What's even scarier is that they always mistake luck for strength— betting on a few trades based on market fluctuations, they dare to add even greater leverage, until one day the market moves 3 points against them, and their account is directly wiped out. Remember: contracts are tools, not a gambling table; 100 times leverage can amplify profits but can also turn you from a 'thousand-dollar holder' back to 'broke' in just 10 minutes.
Two, Small Capital Dreamers: Mistaking the track for a shortcut
Holding a few thousand U in hand, yet dreaming every day of 'turning into a millionaire in half a year.' They always feel that the secondary market rises slowly, focusing all their attention on the primary market and contracts— the former may encounter 'airdrop coins private placement,' where money goes out and the project runs away; the latter repeatedly blows up in high leverage, and a few thousand U can't even last a month.
In fact, the correct approach for small funds is 'steady and steady': first practice in the secondary market, relying on mainstream coin fluctuations to accumulate capital and experience. But these types of people refuse to do so; they always feel that 'wealth comes from risk,' and in the end, they couldn't find the risk, and their capital is lost first.
Three, Giant Baby Investors: Waiting to be fed while complaining that the food is too hot
These people are always asking: 'What to buy now?' 'Can this coin rise?' 'What to do if it falls?'— They neither want to spend time studying projects nor have the patience to learn basic logic, always wanting others to feed the code to them.
What's even more fatal is their extremely poor mentality: making 5 points makes them feel smug, losing 2 points makes them curse, and they panic to cut losses at the slightest fluctuation. There has never been a 'lay-down earning service' in the crypto world; even parents won't feed you until adulthood. Expecting strangers to make you rich? In the end, you'll only become 'chives' under the scythe.
Four, Shitcoin Loyalists: Treating garbage as treasures
Their accounts are always stuffed with shitcoins worth 'a few cents each,' reasoning that they are 'cheap and have great growth potential.' Yet they fail to see what's behind these coins: no ecosystem, no team, and even the white papers are plagiarized.
They refuse to hold BTC and ETH, thinking 'Bitcoin is too expensive, Ethereum rises too slowly,' unaware that these mainstream coins have undergone ten years of market testing, and their risk resistance capabilities are far from what shitcoins can compare to. When one day the exchange announces delisting, the 'hundred times potential coin' in their hands won't even give them a chance to withdraw.
Finally, let me say something realistically
The core of losing money in the crypto world has never been 'the market is bad,' but 'cognition does not match ambition.' Those who shout 'being cut' every day are either gambling, waiting, or following— but they are the only ones who refuse to spend time understanding 'why to buy' and 'how to sell.'
The market is always full of opportunities, but opportunities are only left for those who are prepared. Instead of complaining about being cut, it is better to change these fatal habits first— after all, surviving in the crypto world is more important than anything else.
