To survive in the crypto world, one must first understand the weight of pain.

The market is always like an unrelenting sudden rainstorm, rising and falling, repeatedly tearing at one’s emotions, easily disrupting thoughts and making one feel lost in the future. But after enduring several rounds of bull and bear markets, one comes to understand: no matter how fierce the storm, it will eventually cease; when the dark clouds disperse, the sky will surely brighten.

The losses in the account feel like a heavy stone pressing on the heart, initially thought to be impossible to let go. But over time, the pain brought by those spikes on the candlestick chart will slowly be worn down by time. Every struggle to cut losses, every suffocation from liquidation, is like a scab that has formed on the skin, and more so, a mark engraved in the soul. The retracement that once made you want to exit, the settlement you were ashamed to look back on, in the end, all become growth medals etched into your very being.

No one can bypass the trials of the market. Some see this pain as a sign of destruction, viewing it as a deadly trap; but those who can truly take root in the market often see it as an opportunity to break free from their cocoon. The market never intended to crush anyone; it merely reminds us repeatedly: when it’s time to cut losses, don’t hesitate; when it’s time to acknowledge mistakes, reset; when it’s time to let go of obsessions, learn to turn around.

Pain is never here to destroy traders; it is to awaken your awareness.

No rise in a candlestick chart is without reason, nor is any waterfall decline without warning. Every fluctuation in the market, every flow of funds, hides behind it a game of information, an intertwining of signals, and a resonance of emotions. Within those seemingly random fluctuations lies the language of the market—some have understood the switch between risk and opportunity within the red and green candlesticks, while others repeatedly make the same mistakes in chasing highs and selling lows.

Ultimately, the survival rule in the crypto world has never been to avoid pain, but to learn to coexist with it. When losses no longer leave you lost and directionless, when fluctuations no longer throw you off rhythm, the pains that once kept you tossing and turning at night have quietly transformed into armor that protects you.
