35 years old, 10 years in the crypto world, he quietly turned his assets into 8 digits.
His fans call him 'Old K', and at the age of 25, after watching K-lines in an internet café all night, he exchanged all his internship salary for 0.8 BTC and has not received a salary since.
In ten years, he faced liquidation seven times and had a zero balance three times. At his poorest, he even had to owe money for an overnight internet café stay. But those days helped him turn 'heartbeat' into 'rhythm'.
Today, Old K only books hotels costing over 2000+, with an orange ₿ embroidered on his hat and luggage tag. No final payments, no supplier disputes; a simple message in the group saying '0 o'clock hanging needle tonight' allows him to focus on working out.
Last week in a voice class, he shared with me the 8 private rules he kept hidden, which I organized into 600 words to share with those who truly want to go far —
1️⃣ BTC is always the referee
Price fluctuations depend on its mood; ETH occasionally rebels, while altcoins always follow. Don’t fantasize about independent markets.
2️⃣ USDT is a reverse indicator
USDT premium skyrockets = market panic = BTC could drop anytime; BTC surges = it’s the discount period for accumulating USDT.
3️⃣ Place orders at midnight, harvest after sleep
The highest rate of spikes is between 0:00-1:00. Before sleeping, throw out low buy orders and high sell orders, and often you can gain 3%-5% by the time the alarm rings.
4️⃣ Check direction between 6-8 AM
If it has dropped continuously for 6 hours and is still falling in the morning? High probability of a rebound that day, consider small-scale bottom fishing.
If it has risen continuously for 6 hours and continues to rise in the morning? High probability of a pullback, consider reducing positions to protect profits.
5️⃣ 17:00 US alarm rings
Right before and after the US stock market opens, big orders love to ambush, starting with a 5% fluctuation; keep an eye on the market or place conditional orders, don’t run naked.
6️⃣ Stay half awake on Fridays
Historical backtesting shows that black swans are most likely to appear before the weekly close. At least reduce profitable positions by half and give the weekend to life.
7️⃣ Quality coins depend on endurance
As long as trading volume is stable, a drop is just a discount. Most will recover within 3 days to 1 month. Keep 20% of your capital flexible for buying in batches; if you don’t have any, just wait.
8️⃣ Hold spot > high-frequency gambling
He bought DOGE at 0.089, and it increased 20 times by April this year; meanwhile, a brother who was doing grid trading during the same period lost his profits to transaction fees.
Technical skills can be learned, but mindset is hard to cultivate. Only those who can endure deserve wealth.
