One, survival first: protect your principal before discussing returns.
Cognitive premise: abandon the fantasy of 'hundredfold coins' that earn passively; over 90% of altcoins in the crypto space will eventually go to zero. Preserving principal is the foundation for long-term profit.
Anti-humanity principle: observe when others are chasing prices, and buy in batches when others are panicking. For example, during the 2022 LUNA crash, many who blindly bought the dip suffered significant losses, while waiting for the trend to stabilize before planning can reduce losses.
Two, coin selection strategy: focus on 'hard currency' and potential targets.
Mainstream value coins.
Selection criteria: top 10 by market cap, strong market consensus, practical application scenarios.
Typical cases: BTC (digital gold properties), ETH (leading public chain).
Key points to avoid pitfalls: stay away from forked coins (like BCH) and air coins.
Potential track coins.
Selection criteria: the sector has policy support (such as compliant DeFi), reliable team, active technical updates.
Typical cases: SOL (high-performance public chain), ARB (Layer 2 scaling solution).
Key points to avoid pitfalls: be wary of purely speculative 'shitcoins' (like certain pseudo-projects in the metaverse).
Anti-dip stablecoins.
Selection criteria: 1:1 pegged to fiat currency, transparent and auditable.
Typical cases: USDT, USDC.
Key points to avoid pitfalls: absolutely avoid algorithmic stablecoins (like the previously crashed UST).
Three, position management: operate in batches like a sniper.
Pyramid building method.
When prices fall: buy 20% of remaining funds for every 10% price drop (e.g., with a 100,000 principal, buy 20,000 after the first 10% drop, then buy 16,000 after another 10% drop, buying less with each further drop).
When prices rise: sell 10% of your holdings for every 20% price increase, first recover your principal, and then use profits for speculation.
Cash reserve principles.
The market value of holdings should not exceed 60% of the principal, keeping 40% in cash to deal with black swan events (such as exchange collapses, sudden policy changes, etc.).
Four, technology and mindset: dual dimensions of risk control.
Key points for avoiding pitfalls from a technical perspective.
Do not buy coins that exhibit a 'guillotine' pattern (long bearish candles breaking multiple moving averages) and avoid extreme market movements like 'heaven and earth needles' (extreme daily price fluctuations).
Use the 200-day moving average to judge bull and bear markets: if the price is above the average, consider holding a larger position; if below, take a lighter position and test the waters.
Mindset cultivation rules.
Take profit strategy: sell half of your position after profits double, set a cost price stop loss for the remaining position to ensure principal safety.
Reject FOMO emotions: do not chase popular coins, for example, when MEME coins skyrocketed in 2023, many who chased the highs ended up trapped.
Five, avoid fatal pitfalls: stay away from 90% of the sources of losses.
Do not engage in leveraged contracts: under 10x leverage, a 10% drop in coin price leads to liquidation; during the liquidation wave in 2022, countless investors lost everything; do not bet everything on a single coin: there were investors who bet all on a certain platform's token, and after the platform collapsed, their funds went to zero.
Do not blindly trust 'insider information': calls from 'teachers' in groups may be manipulated by whales; in 2024, a certain call scam involved over 1 billion yuan.
Six, long-termism: let time be your ally.
Regular investment strategy.
Invest a fixed amount of 1,000 yuan weekly to buy BTC; historical data shows (2019-2023) that those who persist with regular investments for over 5 years have a win rate of over 80%, with annualized returns of about 45%.
Coin hoarding + appreciation combination.
Participate in staking with mainstream coins (such as ETH staking to earn gas fees), while participating in new project subscriptions on compliant platforms to diversify risks and increase returns.
Final reminder.
There are no 'sure-win' techniques in the crypto space; the core of long-term profit is filtering risks through reasonable strategies. Before each investment, ask yourself: if I lose 50% of my principal, will it affect my normal life? If you can bear it, then consider entering. The cruel truth of the market is that when you see the temptation of 'fast gains', it often hides the risk of 'faster losses'.
Successfully recouped costs, account doubled. Stay close to the past, position in advance, and enjoy the big gains!!!
