Survival Rules in the Crypto World: Respect the Cycle, Stay Away from the Illusion of 'Lying Down to Win'
When I threw out the assertion in the community that 'you can't hold on to spot, take profits at 2-3 times for altcoins,' I was often met with ridicule and curses. Some angrily accused me of 'desecrating the bull market,' while others mocked, 'this little increase is not worth more than keeping it in the bank.' But if one calmly reviews the data and looks down on the underlying logic of the industry, one might be startled to realize: in this cycle, those who can secure a 3x return and exit unscathed are already a minority of the awakened; while those who attempt to replicate the myth of a hundred times are likely to become 'roller coaster passengers' or 'zero-sum backers.' #Hashdex推出XRP现货ETF
What’s even more fatal is that retail investors always like to bet on the future using 'past experiences' — they focus on the legend of SHIB rising a thousand times, forgetting that behind it are Elon Musk’s tweets promoting it and Binance listing it to create a sensation, the 'right timing and place'; they fantasize that PEPE can replicate the legend of DOGE, while selectively ignoring the harsh reality that 'the meme coin race has become so saturated that hundreds are released every second.'
Three, the 'Eternal Predicament' of Retail Investors: Not Knowing When to Sell, Even More Afraid to Sell
And the truth is
80% of retail investors think '3 times for altcoins is too little, increase their positions at 5 times, and face liquidation at 10 times'; 90% of their positions will forever remain on the path of 'falling from 10 times back to 3 times'; 99% of the retail investors will eventually understand: there is no myth of 'eternally rising' in the crypto world, only the human nature of 'eternal greed.'
Four, a Survival Guide for the Awakened: Swim in the Bubble Without Drowning
Spot ≠ Lying Flat: Bitcoin can be held long-term, but it needs to be hedged against volatility using 'grid trading' or 'spot-futures arbitrage'; altcoins must be 'harvested in waves' — take profits at 2 times, exit at a 15% drawdown, always leave some ammo. Don’t believe in 'hundred times narratives': be wary of 'AI computing power coins,' 'Hong Kong concept coins,' and 'new narratives of RWA' — anything that surges 200% in the short term is mostly 'passing the parcel'; embrace 'cash flow assets': LSD with staking yields over 15%, DeFi leaders with continuous TVL growth, and application chains with real users. Learn to 'act against human nature': when the entire network shouts 'the bull market is eternal,' reduce positions in batches; when negative news triggers panic, invest in BTC and ETH in a contrarian manner; always keep 20% cash — this is both a bottom-fishing ammunition and a psychological trump card.
