Don't look for a partner in the crypto world; that's a conclusion I reached back in 2018. 😅😅

I am not that talented; in 2017, I made my first bucket of gold, 2 million yuan, from 2000 yuan with Litecoin, and I recorded the whole process on Sina Weibo, which helped me accumulate my initial followers. I gained some fame in the crypto world. At that time, I was living in a rental place in Longgang, Shenzhen, quite far from the city center. Once, I asked on Weibo for good restaurants (to treat a friend), and a female fan left a comment, so we added each other as friends. After a month of chatting about cryptocurrency, on a dark and stormy night, we had that kind of story, and then we got together.

At first, being together was quite nice. She graduated from a top university (985), is exceptionally intelligent, and has strong learning abilities. We got along very well. My first bucket of gold, that 2 million, grew to 12 million during the super bull market of 2017, and I felt quite satisfied. Gradually, I had thoughts of cashing out, similar to my current idea of seeking stability after leaving the crypto circle. She also admired me a lot, but she was only dabbling in the crypto world and hadn't made much money. So she wanted to hand over her trading account to me, hoping I could help her make more money. Initially, I refused, but I couldn't withstand her persistent persuasion, so I eventually managed her account.

In 2018, EOS was very popular, but what goes up must come down. It gradually declined from its peak, showing no signs of stopping. I remember starting to buy the dip around 8 dollars, but the continuous decline led to larger losses. To help her recover her losses, I also started buying in with my account to lower the average cost. Unfortunately, EOS was a beast with no signs of stopping. I remember one night, I was holding onto my positions, stayed up all night, and ended up losing over 3 million.

After this incident, I was completely at odds with EOS. Those who traded early know that EOS only stopped falling when it hit 1 dollar, and countless people went bankrupt trying to buy the dip. As a result, I lost 90% of my gains from this bull market. If I hadn't dated someone from the crypto circle, I might not have gone back to buy the dip. This incident hit me hard, and we often argued about it, and soon we broke up.

Later, I learned my lesson: not to date anyone from the crypto world, especially not anyone trading contracts. After that, I never dated anyone from the crypto circle again. In 2021, I dated a wealthy girl. Because of our interactions, she learned about the crypto world and developed an interest in contract trading, starting with small amounts. She would ask me every day whether to go long or short. I advised her to quit gambling, but she wouldn’t listen, so I broke up with her immediately. Unexpectedly, she had a beginner’s luck; in less than a month, she made 300,000 yuan from an initial investment of 100,000 yuan. I advised her to cash out, and she agreed verbally but didn’t take it seriously. One night, there was a sudden spike, and when she woke up, she thought she could collect money again, only to find her account had gone to zero. Later, she put in another 200,000 yuan, but luck never favored her again. Eventually, she understood what I meant and successfully quit gambling. We ended up becoming good friends. Later, in 2023, I met another unique character; she was an alternative existence.

(This is a true story from my personal experience.)
