In this ever-changing world of cryptocurrency, the numbers of wealth are like bubbles, inflating instantly and potentially bursting just as quickly.
Today, I want to share a story from my own experience; it might give you a deeper and clearer understanding of the so-called ‘turnaround’ in the cryptocurrency world.
When I met him, he was the typical ‘leek’ in the cryptocurrency circle, repeatedly harvested but unwilling to leave. After experiencing a devastating liquidation, his account was left with a mere 1400U.
Every time we communicated, his words were filled with deep anxiety: “Bro, I’m really afraid of losing again; if that happens, I’m done and can only exit the circle.”
I am too familiar with this mindset; after years of struggling in the cryptocurrency world, I have seen too many people harboring an urgent desire to make quick money, lacking patience for careful planning, and fearing to miss any seemingly profitable opportunity.
When I first started guiding him, I set the first key strategy for him: on the first day, let him use 10% of his funds to establish a position.
When he heard this, he looked astonished and said with a tone of skepticism: “With such a small investment, what money can I make?”
I looked at his eager eyes and told him seriously: “You are not here to seek overnight wealth; you need to achieve a turnaround step by step.
Only by being steady and firm can one survive in this cruel market and achieve their goals.” He hesitated for a while, gritted his teeth, and ultimately decided to follow my advice.
Unexpectedly, just three days later, this transaction brought rich returns, with profits increasing by 36%.
I immediately instructed him to separate the profits and continue trading with the original position, never to easily change the principal. This is actually the first step of the rolling strategy - using profits to nurture more profits.
In the following days, we closely monitored market dynamics day and night, carefully simulating every possible wave of market trends in advance. After each successful profit, we only took a portion of the profit as 'interest' while keeping the principal intact.
He also worked very hard; every time he traded, whether successful or not, he would review alone until three in the morning, earnestly summarizing his experiences and lessons.
Thus, starting from the initial 1400U, the funds steadily grew to 1900U, 5200U, 8700U... the numbers kept climbing, and everything was developing in a positive direction.
However, on the 28th day, he suddenly asked me: “Bro, do you think with my current level, I can also help others make money?” Hearing this, my heart sank, and I fell silent. It’s not that his trading ability was lacking, but from this sentence, I keenly sensed that he had started to float, and his mindset had quietly changed, which is an extremely dangerous signal in the cryptocurrency world.
As expected, by the 34th day, he secretly invested heavily in a meme coin.
When I found out, he had already lost 43%. I was both shocked and angry, questioning him: “Why didn’t you discuss such a big move with me?”
He lowered his head and said softly: “I just wanted to try the logic I researched myself; I thought this time would work.”
I looked at him, knowing in my heart that he had completely fallen into the gambler's mindset, forgetting the trading discipline and principles we had always adhered to.
On the 36th day, I made a difficult decision - I blocked him.
I didn’t give up on him because he lost money this time; rather, he gave up the most important thing I had painstakingly taught him: that truly turning around in the cryptocurrency world does not rely on a chance windfall, but on executing each trade repeatedly according to discipline day after day, treating each profit as valuable 'bullets' for the next trade.
In this brutal battlefield of the cryptocurrency world, those who can survive for a long time are never those who only think about overnight wealth and act impulsively, but those who can restrain their desires and consistently adhere to trading discipline.
The amount of principal might matter at the beginning, but more importantly, do you have the determination and perseverance to follow the established rhythm strictly and adhere to trading rules.
Just like him, who successfully grew from 1400U to 54,000U, seemingly achieving a great leap, but because he failed to uphold his principles, he ultimately lost his way.
In the cryptocurrency world, very few people can make it to the end because only a tiny number can maintain discipline, overcome the 'gambler's mindset' within, and consistently follow the correct trading philosophy.
The most vicious trap in the cryptocurrency world is the human heart; the strongest weapon is discipline. Only if you can control yourself can you control your profits.
