Over the years of playing with cryptocurrencies, I've seen too many people fall into the trap of 'buying high and selling low' - panicking when prices drop, rushing in like they're possessed when prices rise, and ending up always buying at high prices and selling at low prices.

But the market has always been this way; the ones making money are always that small group of people, and their greatest skill is doing the counterintuitive thing: buying at the bottom.

The term 'buying at the bottom' sounds like gambling with one’s life, but it actually hides an extreme test of mentality. When

SOL fell from $200 to $80, the chat was full of curses like 'it’s going to zero' and 'it’s a garbage coin'. When someone sold at a loss, trembling, saying 'I will never touch SOL again', how much pressure did those who dared to enter and pick up chips have to bear? When

BNB fell to $200 in a bear market, and the forums were filled with rumors of 'exchanges running away'; even veteran players advised to 'liquidate quickly'. At this time, those who dared to build their positions in batches were not relying on luck, but rather on seeing through the opportunities behind the panic.

Just like $DOGE, every time it drops significantly, someone shouts 'the meme coin bubble is about to burst', but every time it hits bottom, it quietly climbs back up. Last year it fell from $0.25 to $0.07; how many people sold at $0.08, only to turn around and watch it rise to $0.18, slapping their thighs in regret? This is the key to being counterintuitive: when others are panicking, you must stay calm and watch the chips; when others are greedy, you must clench your fists and not follow the trend.

Think about

the current situation of SOL adjusts to around $100, the curses start again - 'the ecosystem is failing', 'all the funds are gone', but the truly smart people are already quietly noting the prices. Think about

BNB, every time the market fluctuates, someone shouts 'platform coins are going to crash', but every time it drops to a point, it will follow the market's recovery and slowly climb; those who dared to position themselves below $300 have long turned their risks into profits.

$DOGE is a typical example; its volatility has always been a litmus test for one’s mentality. When it drops, even its holders start to self-mock, saying they 'bought a joke'; when it rises, some shout 'it can reach $1'. But those in the know understand that when the square is filled with bearish voices, that’s when you should open your eyes wide - entering the market at this time is the true 'buy low'; when everyone is shouting 'let's go', it's time to calmly exit and 'sell high'.

The more you can go against human nature, the better you can seize great opportunities. When

SOL is being despised as it drops.

When BNB drops to the point of questioning life and $DOGE falls to the point of being ignored, daring to step out and buy at the bottom is the beginning of closing the gap with retail investors. Remember, the market always punishes emotional people and rewards those who dare to go against the crowd.
