The Fantastical Journey of the Crypto World
One: The Legend of Brother 480,000
Have you heard of 'Brother 480,000'? This brother has a lofty dream of becoming rich overnight through Bitcoin. In 2014, he invested all his 480,000 from selling his house into Bitcoin, and even started a thread on Baidu's Bitcoin forum to live-stream it, preparing to let the world witness his wealth myth. What happened next? Bitcoin went on a roller coaster ride, and his money followed a straight decline, watching his wealth evaporate down to just 90,000. People in the forum pointed at him like they were watching circus monkeys, and his family looked at him with scorn. Even his mother-in-law started arguing with him, and his wife threatened divorce. In 2016, when the coin price slightly rebounded to 3,000 yuan, Brother 480,000 reluctantly sold his coins to buy a house, losing 180,000 and exiting the scene. Little did he know, right after he left, Bitcoin began to soar, and he could only watch helplessly.
Two: The Magical Six Months from 100,000 to 1,500,000
There was another guy who entered the crypto world in 2016 when Bitcoin was only 5,000 yuan. At first, he was just dabbling, waking up in the middle of the night to check prices, making himself look like a 'crypto zombie'. Later, he found this way of living too exhausting and shifted his focus to Ethereum, casually investing 100,000 yuan and then forgetting about it. After a few months, in 2017, he suddenly remembered this investment, logged into the trading platform, and saw that the 100,000 yuan had turned into over 1.5 million! He almost thought he had clicked on the wrong website, and it took him a while to realize that he had accidentally hit the bull market.
This retail investor, relying on a bit of luck and a carefree attitude, made a huge profit. Why was his mindset good? Because this money was dispensable to him; even if he lost it all, it wouldn't matter.
Listening to these legendary stories from the crypto world, you will find that the most precious thing in life is often not money, but the mindset of caring and not caring.
