Why do most people keep losing money in the cryptocurrency market?
Many people enter the cryptocurrency space hoping to get rich quickly, but end up losing more and more capital.
I have seen too many people lose all their principal, and the reasons always boil down to these 3 points:
1️⃣ Impatient mindset — A slight increase makes you feel like you can soar, but a small drop causes panic and selling at a loss. What the market fears the most is not the trends, but the emotions.
2️⃣ Lack of a plan — Getting in by chance, getting out based on feelings, chasing rises today, cutting losses tomorrow, constantly busy, and the account keeps getting smaller.
3️⃣ Not understanding position sizing — Going all in, winning leads to feeling like a god, but losing results in instant zero.
However, those who can truly make money in the cryptocurrency space are doing things that seem 'stupid':
✅ Going with the flow, following the trend, not clashing head-on with the market.
✅ Always using only a small portion of capital for baseline investments, saving bullets for big opportunities.
✅ Better to miss out than to act blindly; if there’s no signal, honestly stay in cash.
📊 The reality is:
90% of people will be harvested by emotions and impulses,
only a few rely on patience and discipline to let their profits snowball.
The huge profits in the cryptocurrency market are never meant for the 'smart people'
but for those willing to be slow, patient, and 'foolish'.
Only those who truly understand this saying are qualified to multiply their capital.
