I. Blood and tears lessons: the truth about 90% of people losing money

  1. Don't believe in the myth of "getting rich overnight": the crypto world is essentially a zero-sum game; if someone profits, someone else loses.

  2. Don't gamble on contracts: 90% of people trading contracts end up losing all their money; it's no different from a casino

  3. Don't go all in: invest only money you can afford to lose, leaving at least 5 parts of your capital (recommended total investment not exceeding 20% of your assets)

II. The only way for ordinary people to make money: rolling strategy

(suitable for investors with over 30,000 capital)

  1. Choose the right timing to act:

  2. Bitcoin suddenly starts after being sideways for half a year (e.g., November 2024 market)

  3. Buy the dip after a 20% drop in a bull market (refer to February 2025 market)

  4. Key level breakout on weekly chart (e.g., BTC breaking $60,000)

Operate in three steps:

① Use 1/3 of capital to build positions (e.g., invest 10,000 out of 30,000)

② Buy more if it drops by 5%, sell if it rises by 10% (control risks like an elevator)

③ Withdraw profits in batches once exceeding 30% (to prevent rollercoaster experiences)

Key discipline:

  1. Never use high leverage (recommended 1-3 times)

  2. Single loss not exceeding 2% of capital

  3. Only trade 1-2 times a week (to avoid impulsive actions)


III. Emergency fund management: 3 iron rules

Diversify investments:

  1. 60% in spot (BTC + ETH)

  2. 30% regular investment (buy 500 each week)

  3. 10% flexible funds

    Stop-loss and profit-taking:

  4. Set stop-loss 8% below the purchase price (to prevent crashes)

  5. Reduce positions by half at 20% profit (lock in profits)


    Regular check-ups:

  6. Count profits every month

  7. Adjust positions every quarter

  8. Withdraw 50% of profits every year

    IV. Beginner's guide to avoiding pitfalls

    No-go zones:

  9. Altcoins (except mainstream ones like ETH, BNB)

  10. Air coins (no practical application)

  11. Pyramid scheme (promises high returns)


    Essential tools:

  12. Wallet: MetaMask (for asset storage)

  13. Market data: CoinMarketCap (for real-time data)

  14. Learning: CoinDesk (policy interpretation)



    Psychological preparation:

  15. Don't panic if it drops (market corrections are normal)

  16. Don't be greedy if it rises (take your profits)

  17. Learn to wait (only seize 2-3 opportunities a year)


Remember: making money in the crypto world relies not on luck, but on discipline. As long as ordinary people stick to "idle money investment + strict stop-loss + regular profit-taking", achieving financial freedom in 3-5 years is entirely possible. But remember: never invest borrowed money, and never believe in promises of "guaranteed profits"!
