Making 1 million RMB in the crypto world is actually not as 'unreachable' as many people say, but it's definitely not something you can achieve just by casually buying. Most people find it difficult because their direction is wrong, their rhythm is chaotic, and their mindset is shattered. The real path to success is actually three steps: find the right sector, master the method, and strictly execute it.
First, choose the right sector and avoid junk coins.
Many people want to get rich overnight by investing in 'hundredfold small coins' as soon as they enter the circle, but nine times out of ten, they end up getting harvested. If you want to steadily hit 1 million, the key is to first capture the mainstream sectors during a bull market cycle—such as BTC, ETH, or the ecosystems currently highly regarded by capital and institutions (like BTC ecosystem, Ethereum L2, SOL ecosystem, etc.). Although these sectors may not have the dramatic increases of small coins, they are much safer, have considerable segment profits, and are easy to operate during trending markets.
Second, let small capital grow to large principal.
Going from tens of thousands to 1 million is essentially a process of rolling capital. For example, with a principal of 100,000, if you capture a 30%-50% market wave, you can earn 30,000 to 50,000; by doing this continuously, you can significantly grow your principal. The core is not to go all in at once, but to safely double multiple times—the compound interest effect can be astonishing.
In a bull market, this process will be much faster due to greater market volatility and more opportunities. In a bear market, however, you need to lower your expectations and focus more on buying low and holding long, waiting for the trend to arrive for a concentrated breakout.
Third, control risk and survive long enough.
In the crypto world, many people are just one step away from 1 million, yet they end up with zero due to over-leveraging or not having stop-losses.
The key to risk control is:
Don’t be fully invested: leave some bullets for yourself, so if the market goes against you, there’s still a chance to recover.
With stop-loss: better to miss out than to be deeply trapped.
Don’t chase highs: especially with coins that have surged in the short term, entering is highly likely to be catching a falling knife.
Real-life cases
I know people who started with 50,000 and made it to 1.2 million in a year, while others lost 500,000 in three months. The difference is not luck, but method—those who know how to seize trends steadily grow their capital, while those who don't rely on feelings and act impulsively.
The conclusion is—making 1 million in the crypto world is not difficult, but it requires you to be at the right time, use the right methods, and survive long enough. When the market is good, one or two big waves are enough to reach your target; when the market is bad, just focus on accumulating chips, controlling risk, and wait for the right moment to act. As long as the direction is correct and the rhythm is steady, earning 1 million is a result, not a fantasy.
