March 23, 2025 cryptocurrency market analysis
Today's mainstream coin trend analysis:
BTC fluctuated between 84,000 and 84,500 over the weekend, forming a narrow consolidation pattern. The current market is entering an adjustment phase with a very slow rhythm. The lower support at 83,000 can still be used as a reference.
ETH's price in the short term is affected by various factors, with capital showing net inflow, providing some support for the price, and showing certain signs of strengthening over the weekend. Currently, it is necessary to pay attention to whether the lower level of 1980-1950 can stabilize; if it breaks, then this wave of 4-hour-level rebound will fail.
Market conditions change rapidly, and specifics depend on the actual market, remember to manage risks well!
Today's trading review:
I just witnessed a miracle! This operation surprised even me...
In the afternoon, I let everyone get on board with $UUU, called out 0.0028 and then went for coffee, and when I turned around it shot up to 0.031! 20 times, family!!
The on-chain world really changes rapidly, and I am so happy that we can all benefit from it! 🎉%20

Introduction: This article mainly shares experiences, emphasizing take-profit, stop-loss, avoiding herd mentality, and valuing compound interest effects and rational decision-making.
Having been in the crypto space for so many years, I earned eight figures. Here are a few bits of wisdom I've learned:
1. Sell and keep earning
Selling early is usually better, even if you miss out on some profits, it's better than holding on too long and fumbling around.
That's because, in the end, you will find that almost everything will tend toward zero.
So even if you sell early and miss some profits, looking back at that decision months or years later—you were a genius!
2. Screenshot and sell
If you take a screenshot of how much profit you made, that's when you should choose to sell.
Of course, you don't have to sell your entire position, but usually, at least reducing your position by 20-50% would be a good time.
3. Ignore the noise
Most people know nothing about what they say on platform X and cryptocurrency-related applications.
Often, the loudest and most confident voices know the least; while those who are quiet and can self-reflect are filled with wisdom.
4. Confidence cannot be borrowed
Obviously, you cannot borrow confidence to buy from others.
If you get influenced by someone else buying something or telling you it might take off, you will almost certainly get cut.
Then these people will push the responsibility onto you while you're anxiously waiting for their next tweet or YouTube video to tell you what to do next.
5. Don't care about others' opinions
Stop trying to impress people.
This is just a general and universal life advice, but it is particularly applicable in the field of cryptocurrency.
Wanting to leave a deep impression on friends and family, make them like you and pay attention to you is one thing.
And wanting to impress strangers online to gain attention? Don't be foolish.
6. Bitcoin is the only true god
First came Bitcoin, then everything else.
It took me a long time to really realize this.
Yes, altcoins may occasionally outperform Bitcoin in the market—sometimes for an extended period—but basically, in the long run, everything flows towards Bitcoin.
Most people try to trade these altcoins for returns far exceeding those of Bitcoin; less than 5% of people can actually achieve this.
It's like trying to outperform the S&P 500 index fund. For most people, the best way to invest is to buy index funds directly.
7. Don't be blinded by the FOMO of herd mentality
The cryptocurrency industry always has a way to distort your thoughts, it's almost like a mental illness.
In the last cycle, many of us refused to sell a picture of a set of words (i.e., NFT) for $50,000 because we thought 'it was undervalued.' Many other smart people felt the same way, and so did you.
The herd mentality is real, and it takes a lot of courage to go against the tide; you should try doing it.
8. Get more in touch with the real world, don't lose the real concept of money.
From this moment on, try to broaden your horizons and spend some time with people outside the cryptocurrency industry.
1 SOL or 0.08 ETH may not seem like a lot of money (there is indeed unit bias), but think about how much you can accumulate daily or yearly, and then think about what you can do with that money in real life.
Moreover, most people feel very excited about getting a 10% return on investment within a year, which is taken for granted.
In fact, this number is a very good return rate, but cryptocurrencies have distorted all concepts about investment returns and so on.
9. Value the effect of compound interest and seize certain opportunities
The effect of compound interest is incredibly powerful.
In fact, you don't need to find 100 times growth; usually, a few consecutive 2 times growth is good enough. Even achieving compound growth at a rate of 10-50% per year is quite difficult (think about it, have you ever considered how crazy high percentage compound interest can become after many years?). (Note from Odaily Planet Daily: This refers to explosive growth similar to exponential growth).
Another way to say it is: 'Most people overestimate what they can achieve in a year and underestimate what they can achieve in ten years.'
Here are 10 hard lessons I've learned after paying millions of dollars in tuition.
Undoubtedly, every cycle in cryptocurrency will prompt you to perform better in emotional management.
For me, 2021 was a disastrous year. At that time, my assets reached seven figures, but in the end, I almost lost everything.
But in this cycle, my investment performance has improved, although the drawdowns still caught me off guard, but I have retained most of my investment gains. There’s no way, being in the cryptocurrency space, you can never stop learning.
1. Selling early is better than selling late
I have never regretted selling a certain coin, but I always regret not selling in time to lock in profits.
Rather than selling too late and ultimately gaining little, it is better to gradually take profits.
2. Take profit when you should
There have been many times when I chose to exchange profits for stablecoins, only to get caught in the whirlpool of chasing the next investment game.
However, when I exchange it for fiat currency or other 'real-world' investments, that money may become temporarily inaccessible (for safety reasons).
I think it also depends on each person's different personality.
I am someone with ADHD, so the more measures I can introduce to prevent impulsive decisions and make myself think, the better it is for me.
3. Complacency is deadly
There was a time when I deceived myself into thinking I was making money, but in reality, I earned too little.
Yes, today I took $100,000 off the table again—'Look how amazing I am, Mom! I'm making money!'
In fact, I still hold millions of altcoins that only have book profits.
I found myself always looking at the portfolio value as comfort rather than the actual stablecoin weight of that portfolio—which is a more important indicator for preserving wealth.
Undoubtedly, the biggest killer in the crypto space is the feeling of complacency.
Ignoring warning signals = complacency;
Not making profits = complacency;
Slow reaction to new information = complacency;
Poor planning = complacency;
99% of mistakes in the market can be attributed to some form of complacency.
4. Respect every penny
That day I saw this tweet, and it resonated with me deeply. (Overseas influencer Loopify previously stated that people really don't understand how valuable having $1 million in cash reserves is. Even with a successful career, it still takes a long time to earn. If you become a top figure in your profession, earning $400,000 a year, it might take 5 years to accumulate; if you can earn $200,000 a year, it might take about 10 years to achieve).
For people in the cryptocurrency industry, sometimes we completely lose the perception of cost-effectiveness.
For example, in December last year, I made a trade and earned $1.7 million from back-and-forth operations. Now, I really wish I had half of that wealth at the time.
At that time, I felt that money was not important because people can easily be influenced by this excited state.
Always stay awake (even in crazy moments), cherish every penny, because one day you will cherish this money even more.
5. Gradually accumulate compound interest
Most mistakes in the market fundamentally stem from the pursuit of quick (and 'easy') returns.
But the wealth accumulated over the long term actually comes from the compound returns gained over time.
You should treat every trade as a 'gamble', aiming to increase your overall chips (like in poker).
6. Don't be misled by target prices or profit targets
The market doesn't care about your arbitrarily set target prices, whether it's a specific dollar value or a multiple. Chasing targets is a foolproof deal.
If at some moment you really reach your target price, then sell. Don't be greedy, and don't change your profit target.
At least, pursue new target prices with fewer chips and protect your trading principles.
7. Set stop-loss indicators
By the end of last year, I made significant progress in this area. But there was a time (especially in March 2024) when I still didn't do well, and more effective stop-loss strategies could have avoided a lot of pain. It might be as simple as setting a predetermined HTF (high time frame, which means a longer trading time frame) support level/moving average and reducing positions when structural breaks occur; it could also be more advanced, like identifying LTF (low time frame, which means a shorter trading time frame) loss momentum and re-entering while the market rises.
In trending markets, this usually works very well. But at the very least, have some form of stop-loss indicator, rather than waiting for your position to go to zero.
8. Don't borrow confidence from others
Every time I bought cryptocurrency based on someone else's opinion (instead of my own judgment), the results were disappointing.
Refer to others' thoughts—but independently verify and establish your own views and beliefs.
Otherwise, you will end up holding tokens that you have no real conviction in or don't know what to do when that conviction is tested.
9. Don't hold any altcoins for long
Investing in altcoins is a bit like a trap.
Your default mindset should be that every time you buy, you are trading altcoins against the US dollar. (Note from Odaily Planet Daily: Keep an eye on the exchange rate changes between altcoins and the dollar to judge potential price trend directions.)
I like this way of thinking because it formalizes the need to establish a clear take-profit/stop-loss plan. Many people may slack off in this regard.
‘Investing’ is not an excuse for poor risk management. A trade can last for 3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months, or even 12 months in some cases.
But please note that this is just trading; your ultimate goal is to accumulate more BTC or other capital.
10. Don't use leverage to take risks in contracts
Since this cycle began, I have only had two sleepless nights, both of which occurred when I held a large number of leveraged contracts.
Only use leverage to manage risks (like hedging), not to take on more risks.
If you want to hold long-term, spot trading is relatively more suitable.
