You think you're "just exchanging some USDT,"
But in reality, many people start losing money right from the first step. What really causes people to lose money isn't just operational errors, but those commonly seen "almost unsolvable" traps of novice mindsets. In today's article, we won't talk about technology or chains, just the 3 types of money-losing mindsets you're most likely to fall into, and how to avoid them.
1. "Buy early, or it will be too late!" People like this see posts in their social circles saying: "BTC has broken a new high!" "If you don't enter now, it will be too late!" "Institutions are buying up!" and immediately rush to buy USDT, diving into the market, fearing they will miss out on the opportunity. What happens? They buy at a high point, chasing the price only to end up trapped, making mistakes in transfers, choosing the wrong addresses, following emotions, buying wherever it's hot, completely lacking logic. This "FOMO mentality" (fear of missing out) is particularly easy to exploit. You think you're the one "seizing opportunities," but in reality, you are the last link in the chain of those being cut down.
Breakthrough suggestion:
Don't listen to someone shouting "It's going to rise!" First, practice your fundamentals: Understand the platform, wallet, chain, and address. Once you can safely transfer USDT, it's not too late to enter the market.
2. "They all say it's a sure profit, I want to try it too." People like this are attracted by phrases like "Earning money easily, a 10%+ annual return!"
"Risk-free arbitrage, earn hundreds of USDT in a day!" "Follow my operations, doubling isn't a dream!" So they invest without checking the rules, calculating fees, or confirming the platform's safety.
Result: Money goes into locked products, and when you want to withdraw, you can't due to exchange rate losses, and you find yourself in a funding trap, unable to recover even the principal.
Breakthrough suggestion:
Opportunities to make money in the crypto world are never the ones that look "easiest." The more someone says it's "sure profit," the more you need to clarify: Where does the money go? Can it come out? Are the rules clearly written?
3. "I won't learn first, I'll talk about it after I earn." Many people start with: "I'll just buy some USDT to play with, I don't understand the operations, as long as I can buy it, it's fine." But then the problem arises: transfer errors, not knowing if the chain or address is wrong, the wallet won't open, not knowing where the private key is. When they want to withdraw coins, they find the platform has risk controls, verification is blocked, and they can't withdraw. You think you're just "trying it out," but in the blockchain world, every step involves real money.
Breakthrough suggestion:
Lack of familiarity with operations = Actively exposing your assets to risk.
Don't fantasize about "earning money after learning"; you need to understand the rules first to keep the money. In conclusion, many people don't fail due to investment strategies but die in the pitfalls of their own unaware mindsets. Earning money with USDT is not a game of luck but a compounding of ability + discipline + common sense.
Let me say it again: Don't fear being slow; fear making mistakes right from the start. Don't fear learning; fear not understanding and rushing in. Don't fear missing out on opportunities; fear missing the steps you could have done correctly.
