Let me talk about my journey in the cryptocurrency market, where I went to zero three times and eventually earned over 70 million. In 2017, during the crazy ICO boom, I just entered the cryptocurrency market with 1,000 yuan to give it a try. I remember that the first time I made money was by buying Ethereum; I made a 10% profit in one day from that 1,000 yuan. From that moment on, I couldn't stop. I remember that after a week, I invested another 60,000 yuan. At that time, I bought a coin, and after a month of waiting for the coin to launch, during the ICO, any coin you bought would multiply several times upon opening. I made about 300,000 yuan from BNT, and then I thought that I had the ability, so I took that 300,000 yuan to play in the secondary market with spot contracts. As a result, everything went to zero in less than half a year. I remember that in the second month after going to zero, I sold my car. The car I sold was my first car, a BMW 3 Series, and I sold it for 170,000. During the bull market phase from 2018 to 2019, I made small profits on other coins, but the one that made me the most money was EOS. In fact, EOS had the smallest price increase, but I held onto it, and my capital grew from 170,000 to 3 million. However, I hadn't truly experienced a full cycle of bull and bear markets and didn't understand the cruelty of a bear market. As a result, during the bear market, my 3 million shrank to only 80,000 by the beginning of 2020.
If I had just held on a little longer, I could have completely recouped my losses because at the end of 2020, when the pandemic broke out, the Federal Reserve was recklessly cutting interest rates and printing money. Later, I understood that it wasn't just the pandemic causing this, but rather the laws of human nature and the unchanging principles of the financial system over hundreds of years. Subsequently, in 2020, I took my first high-interest loan, online loans, credit cards… and successively cashed out 500,000. However, because the money was borrowed, my mindset was very unstable. The 500,000 never managed to rise above 1 million in two months. The more I wanted to get rich quickly, the less money I had because slow is fast, and fast is slow. In July 2020, when Ethereum was at 300 dollars, I opened a three-times leveraged short position. Unsurprisingly, Ethereum reached nearly 500 dollars in August. At that time, the bull market had already started, but I still didn't realize it, resulting in a liquidation! Therefore, those who have not experienced a full cycle of bull and bear markets do not know when a bear market will come or when a bull market will end. Ethereum rose in August and continued until February 2021, reaching 4,500 dollars. During that time, I was so upset that I lay in bed for half a year. I would spend about 12 hours a day analyzing K-lines, researching each coin's project parties, and communities. When Ethereum approached 2,000 dollars in May 2021, I sold my house for 1.2 million and went all in on AXS when it was at 6 dollars. By June, my 1.2 million had shrunk to 600,000, but I still chose to hold because I knew that AXS had always had potential.
The main force is accumulating a lot, so this time I am not as anxious as the last two times, and my emotional fluctuations are not significant. Sure enough, AXS rose to 160 dollars; I sold it at 120 dollars, and just like that, I earned my first 20 million+. Subsequently, I chose a 3-month period of being out of the market. There is a saying: "Those who can buy are students, those who can sell are masters, and those who can stay out of the market are great masters." As expected, in November 2021, I experienced a major bear market. Then, I went all in when Ethereum was at 1000 dollars, leaving myself 500,000 for living expenses for a year renting outside. I held onto Ethereum for over two years. Later, due to the large amount of capital, I sold at 1800 dollars in 2024. In fact, if I had held for another month, Ethereum would have reached 4000 dollars. However, I had no choice; my cash flow was almost exhausted. Over 30 million is already a lot for an ordinary person. I believe many brothers will remember me at this time because at the beginning of 2024, I completed 180 consecutive wins with a record of 5 draws and 9 losses in a month. These records are permanently verifiable. Then, at the beginning of 2014, two weeks before PEPE rose, I bought 500,000 USDT, and I told all my 5,000 brothers and the fans in the square. Sure enough, PEPE rose 17 times in a month. Just like that, I made over 40 million from that wave of PEPE. The trading records of PEPE and my short-term record of over 300 wins are permanently verifiable. In the cryptocurrency world, it is impossible to make money every day for 365 days, nor can it grow gradually like climbing stairs. In the trading market, especially in the cryptocurrency market, which is unregulated, the main force's manipulation is very insidious and cunning. A tenfold increase can happen in just three days, just like SHIB and DOGE. In the cryptocurrency market, consolidation can take two years, while taking off only takes one week. Although I gained this wealth over the years, I also developed severe dry eye syndrome, weaknesses, myopia, and astigmatism, as well as significant issues with my lumbar and cervical vertebrae due to sitting in front of the computer every day. I was also diagnosed with depression and anxiety due to emotions in 2017. Now, although I say I am financially free, for at least 100 days a year, I need medication prescribed by the hospital to help me sleep. This might be the magic of this circle. I have come to understand many people, including exchange owners, market makers, and top KOLs in the industry; most of them face similar situations as I do. Additionally, I want to tell everyone that June, July, and August are the last chances for ordinary retail investors to turn their fortunes around. In the future, there will no longer be such large-scale altcoin seasons in the cryptocurrency market. The industry is gradually becoming compliant and accepting regulation, and opportunities will become fewer and fewer.
