Among post-90s, at 33 years old, I am considered an 'elder' in the crypto world — not boasting about my experience, but rather because the younger generation, born in the 00s, are clustered here, and any one of them could be sitting on a fortune of millions. But having seen too many examples of 'young achievers' who quickly faded into obscurity, I feel that in the end, the crypto world is not about luck or skills, but about the control of emotions.
Just like that 'cool mat kid' back in the day, during the 312 crash, he made precise judgments and turned 2,000 yuan into millions in a year, but later got reckless and couldn't stop, and now his account is far from the glory of those years. In contrast, I started with 150,000 yuan, and after struggling for years, my account has climbed to over 7 million, relying not on 'catching the big market', but on engraving 'no greed, no panic' into my operations.
1. The crypto world is not a technical arena, but an emotional battleground.
Most people in the crypto world are like headless flies: when the market rises, they get greedy for 'more gains', and when it falls, they panic that 'it will go to zero', being led by emotions back and forth. I have seen too many people jump between 'selling too early' and 'being stuck' — buying Bitcoin for 50,000, selling at 52,000, only to miss out on the rise to 100,000; next time entering at 60,000, not selling at 62,000, and when it corrects to 58,000, having to cut losses.
In fact, the real gold in the crypto world is hidden in 'controlling emotions': not being lured by greed to chase highs, not being pushed by panic to cut losses, is more effective than learning many technical indicators.
2. Four practical insights: I used them to grow from 150,000 to 7 million.
1. Don’t be greedy for small advantages, and never gamble with your life savings.
Eighty percent of people fall due to 'greed'. Don't always focus on 'making quick money'; when I had 150,000 in capital, I set a hard limit for myself: no single position should exceed 10% of total funds, even if I am optimistic about the market, I won't go all in. Don't get carried away with profits, don't average down to recover losses; preserving capital is essential for having the confidence to recover.
2. Only invest in mainstream coins that are deeply oversold, no matter how fancy a new coin looks, I won't touch it.
There are many fancy new coins with great stories, but there are also many pitfalls. I only choose mainstream coins like BTC and ETH that are deeply oversold and stabilized: first, I take a 10% position to test, and once the price stabilizes and the trend is clear, I add to my position. It seems 'conservative', but it avoids most of the 'zero-value coins' pitfalls.
3. Average down and wait for the trend, act again after a correction.
Don’t think about 'buying at the lowest price', that's gambling. I only average down when the 'trend is clear': wait for the market correction to end and for stabilization signals (like volume at the bottom, not hitting new lows) before taking action. It might be a little higher than the lowest price, but it’s definitely better than being stuck in the middle of a price drop.
4. After every wave of increase, promptly 'take profits'.
This is the most crucial point: after every wave of increase, immediately transfer back your principal and half of the profit, letting the remaining position be tossed by the market. When it reaches the preset goal, decisively take profit — you have to know that the money transferred to your bank account is the only money that truly belongs to you.
3. Practical Verification: Helped a friend fill a 500,000 loss in half a year, and earned enough for an extra vehicle.
This year, a friend of mine lost over 500,000 in the crypto market, and when he came to me, his account only had a small amount left. I guided him according to these principles: only invest in mainstream coins, don't be greedy, and take profits when the price rises. After half a year, not only did he recover the over 500,000 loss, but he also earned enough for an extra vehicle.
He said, 'I didn't expect it to be so simple', but the truth is not complicated: the crypto world doesn't lack smart people, but rather those who can control their hands and remain calm.
33 years old is not considered young in the crypto world, but the older one gets, the more one understands: this is not a casino for 'getting rich overnight', but a treasure trove for those who can control their emotions. Keep greed and panic in check, and the rest can be left to time.
