1. Entering the crypto space, betting on the future with a capital of 100,000
In 2017, at the age of 26, I worked at an internet company with a monthly salary of 20,000 and little savings. By chance, I came into contact with the crypto space and was shocked by the rise of Bitcoin and Ethereum, feeling that opportunity was right in front of me. At that time, I knew almost nothing about trading, only buying some ETH and LTC based on intuition, intending to hold long-term.
A few months later, ETH soared from $300 to $1,000, tripling my capital, and my account neared 300,000. I felt the madness of the crypto market for the first time and planted a belief in my heart—that here, perhaps, is the stage for my financial freedom.
2. Rich in a bull market, tenfold in a year
At the beginning of 2018, the market completely entered a frenzy, with altcoins doubling in a day. I began to study projects and gradually discovered a pattern—hot narratives determine the flow of funds.
At that time, ICOs were booming, and I decisively invested in popular projects like NEO and EOS.
The market soared every day, and I continuously compounded my investments. In just a few months, my funds exceeded 3 million.
But soon, the market turned down, and I realized that merely going long was far from enough; I also had to learn to hedge.
3. In the 2018 bear market, a 90% loss
The money made in the bull market was almost lost in just six months. BTC plummeted from $20,000 to $3,000, and my altcoins were nearly worthless. That was when I realized that making money in the crypto space relies not on luck, but on strategy and mindset.
To survive, I did three things:
Spot + contract dual track: use spot for long-term layout and contracts for short-term amplified gains.
In a bear market, only invest in leaders: only cryptocurrencies with strong liquidity like BTC, ETH, and SOL can survive.
Hold the bottom without cutting losses: use the remaining funds to buy in batches at low positions, patiently waiting for the turning point.
This wait lasted two years.
4. In the 2021 bull market, assets exceeded 8 figures
As the market warmed up, BTC broke through $10,000, and I decisively increased my position, distributing my capital into BTC, ETH, and the DeFi sector, while also deeply learning about contract trading.
At the beginning of 2021, DeFi exploded, and I heavily invested in UNI and AAVE, which multiplied tenfold in a few months.
In the mid-bull market, Meme coins rose, and I caught the main wave of Dogecoin and SHIB, making over 5 million in a single transaction.
At the end of the bull market, I learned to take profits in batches at high positions, securing my profits.
By the end of the year, my account funds exceeded 30 million, achieving complete financial freedom.
5. In the post-bull market era, mindset is more important than skills
In 2022, the market entered a correction again. I no longer panicked like I did back then, but kept my patience, waiting for the next cycle.
There are no eternal myths in the crypto space; those who can truly laugh last are the ones who can maintain their mindset, adhere to the rules, and have strong execution.
Later, I will synchronize the next wave of operational plans internally, including specific entry timing, exit points, how to capture strong coins, and details on setting profit-taking. As long as you execute according to my thinking, profits are guaranteed; don’t hesitate!
