At one o'clock in the morning, the phone buzzed and shook.
When my friend from Zhejiang connected on voice, his voice was trembling:
"Bro, it's over. I had 20,000 U, fully invested in 10x leveraged positions, and it only dropped 3%, and it's all gone!"
I looked at the records—19,500 U were all in, and there was no stop loss set. A typical case of "betting life for profit."
I've seen this too many times; many people think—
Using the entire account is decisive; after all, it’s their own money, and if they lose, they can double down to recover.
But the truth is exactly the opposite: using the entire account is not courage; it's self-destruction.
It’s like a knife; sharpness is an advantage, but it also comes with a cost.
The root of liquidation is not in leverage but in "heavy positions."
Let me give you the most intuitive example:
If you have 1,000 U and use 900 U for 10x leverage, as long as the market goes against you by 5%, your account will be wiped out;
But if you only use 100 U for 10x, it will only explode if the market moves against you by 50%.
My friend took out 95% of his capital to go all-in; under 10x leverage, even a small pullback is like a bullet through the heart.
After that night, I reorganized my trading system and summarized three principles; after sticking to them for six months, I didn't blow up even once, and my account actually doubled:
① Only use 20% of total capital each time.
For a 10,000 U account, using 2,000 U at a time is sufficient. Even with a 10% stop loss, you would only lose 200 U, which doesn’t hurt the foundation.
② Single losses should not exceed 3%.
With 2,000 U at 10x leverage, preset a 1.5% stop loss, making the maximum loss 300 U, which is 3% of total capital. This way, even if you have several consecutive losses, you still have room to maneuver.
③ Do not trade during fluctuations, do not increase positions when profitable.
Only trade in trending markets; do not let emotions control your hands. Being greedy during a volatile period often leads to significant losses.
Later, a fan followed me in implementing these three rules, going from blowing up every month to steadily turning 5,000 U into 8,000 U in three months.
He told me: "I used to think that going all-in was about risking it all for big gains, but now I understand that going all-in is not about winning, but about surviving longer."
He was absolutely right.
In the cryptocurrency world, surviving is the prerequisite for talking about making money.

—— An Ordinary Man's Eight-Year Journey in the Crypto World
The Huangpu River at night, the lights flicker on the water's surface. The cruise ship slowly passes by, and the neon lights of the Oriental Pearl gradually brighten.
I lean against the window, looking at the river view. I have two apartments—one for my parents' retirement and one for my wife and daughter.
My daughter leans on the windowsill watching the boats, and I suddenly feel a bit dazed.
Who would have thought that this stability was something I had earned over eight years in the crypto world, starting with a principal of 150,000.
01 Starting from Instant Noodles in the Bathroom
My hometown is in Changsha.
In 2015, a friend who was doing e-commerce told me, "Investing in cryptocurrencies can make you rich."
At that time, I was running a clothing store and had just saved up 150,000, so on a whim, I invested it all in three so-called "new coins."
In less than six months, my account had only 30,000 left.
I didn't dare to tell my family. At night, hiding in the bathroom, while cooking instant noodles, I cracked an egg into it and cried while eating.
That day, I told myself: either quit or figure it out.
Since then, I stopped listening to others brag about "10x coins" and "100x coins" and began to grind through knowledge.
Every day, after the kids went to sleep, I sat in front of the computer replaying charts, studying patterns, noting market trends, and simulating orders.
In those years, everyone was chasing trends, while I was honing my patience. $BTC $ETH #美国加征关税 #加密市场回调
It's time to buy the dip; I just told you that the market has stabilized, and I'm simultaneously buying SOL and ETH. Currently, SOL has started to make a small profit.
Brothers who are following along will have something to gain. If you don't know the subsequent operational ideas and strategies, feel free to come to the chat room to discuss with me! $BTC $ETH $SOL #美国加征关税 #加密市场回调
Today's trend has truly been a rollercoaster, very torturous.
At this moment, we must have the patience to hold on and not be shaken out.
Although the process is very grueling, we must believe that victory belongs to the many! $BTC $ETH $SOL #美国加征关税 #加密市场回调

💥Are you still not bottom-fishing in this market?
Actually, when Brother Yao posted a blog entry, these two trades had already been executed. The reason is that many fans believe I can only play with large positions, so I will prove it with my strength!
I will record every trade in real-time, whether it's a profit or a loss, I will share it so you can see! Still the same saying, if you keep up, there will be rewards! $BTC $ETH $SOL #加密市场回调 #隐私叙事回归 #美国加征关税
The current short-term movement of the two biscuits is in a converging triangle pattern within the 3700–3780 range, with fluctuations converging. Currently, it has broken out and is testing whether the support near the triangle's starting point around 4725 is effective. Meanwhile, the EMA moving averages are still in a bearish arrangement. The focus now needs to be on the key pressure area above at 3800–3850 and the key defense area below at 3700. $BTC $ETH $SOL #加密市场回调 #美国加征关税
The biggest crash in crypto history! 20 billion dollars evaporated, the truth behind 1.6 million people being liquidated is revealed
Pandemic crash, 1.2 billion dollars liquidated FTX collapse, 1.6 billion dollars liquidated 312 crash, 2 billion dollars liquidated 519 crash, 5 billion dollars liquidated And just yesterday The biggest crash in crypto history occurred Over 20 billion dollars were liquidated 1.6 million people were liquidated Bitcoin fell to a low of 10,150 dollars Ethereum fell to a low of 3,373 dollars Other altcoins fell by 80% or even 90% What caused this crash? What conspiracy is behind it? Can we buy the dip recently? What will the market do next? Look down, and let me tell you 👇
The 3 main reasons for this crash (1) Trump is stirring trouble again
Understanding how market makers operate in the cryptocurrency world in one article?
This sharp decline has led many brothers to say that Binance market makers have encountered problems, including the regulated gold $PAXG also experiencing a sharp drop.
Why do many retail investors say that every time they buy, the price drops, and every time they sell, the price rises? So, are market makers good or bad? How do they operate?
1. Transaction fee rebate 2. Small profit from the slight price difference after both parties transact, accumulating minimal profits, essentially capturing liquidity through time and information delays 3. Price discovery, helping the market to price, providing liquidity 4. Market-making, gathering the market, selling liquidity to retail investors in conjunction with news
✨In this wave of black swans, we can focus on some strong altcoins with relatively small declines and quick rebounds. Personally, I am paying attention to the new lending protocols in the Ethereum series: $MORPHO
In the $10 billion market forced liquidation event, Morpho's performance was particularly eye-catching, with $200 million in funds gaining 10% profit on major platforms, total locked funds skyrocketing to $7.7 billion, making it the second largest lending protocol, and establishing a strategic partnership with the platform.
On-chain data shows a significant presence of bottom-fishing funds providing support, and the MACD histogram has turned positive and started to expand, allowing for a quick recovery from the decline, making it a dark horse in this cycle.
This is also the reason why Yao Ge chose to ambush it. I feel very sorry for the fans who were liquidated by their own operations last night. Yao Ge has to work hard these days to help fans recover their losses. 😅$BTC $ETH #加密市场回调 #美国加征关税
Today, while looking at stablecoin public chains again, I saw a cryptocurrency that I personally favor: $XPL
I personally have a very favorable view of stablecoin public chains because most L1s are not suitable for the mass adoption of traditional markets, but $XPL fully meets the requirements for mass adoption: first, it is stable, and second, it is gas-free, plus the project team has top-tier backing.
Later, I gradually understood that when buying VC coins, one can only work with projects that do not lack funding; poor projects are just here to sell their projects. $XPL is the "favorite child" of USDT issuer Tether and is also the chain that Tether itself built from scratch, which meets the characteristics of a good VC coin.
This is also the reason why I personally have a favorable view of it. Plus, after yesterday's black swan event, with the current price around 0.47, brothers can confidently and boldly buy the dip; seizing an opportunity in this kind of market is comparable to a working professional's ten years! #美国加征关税 #加密市场回调

Brothers! Good morning, last night's black swan market must have shocked you, with over 1.6 million people liquidated and a liquidation amount exceeding 20 billion USD, setting the largest liquidation record in the cryptocurrency market in the past decade.
I have been emphasizing these days that everyone should take profits, those brothers who listened are quite happy, at least they were not affected by this market, and they have the bullets to buy the dip.
From the on-chain data, stablecoins are flowing into exchanges, while BTC is flowing out, clearly indicating that this drop was not caused by market manipulation. It can be seen that this market adjustment is more triggered by the market fundamentals.
Why did it drop so much?
①: Yesterday it was announced that starting from November 1, a 100% tariff will be imposed on Chinese goods. Once this news broke, the global market became tense, and the cryptocurrency market could not escape unscathed.
②: The leverage on USDT's circulating loans is too high, resulting in massive liquidations. This chain reaction not only hit many contract players but also caused many to be liquidated and exit overnight.
③: The US stock market recorded the largest single-day drop since April, and the panic in the entire financial market spread to the cryptocurrency market. As we all know, the correlation between the US stock market and the cryptocurrency market is very strong, and once panic spreads, the drop in the cryptocurrency market often increases accordingly.
Brothers, buying the dip in batches can begin, I will publish specific operational ideas in the team, the operational strategy is already in place, brothers seize this opportunity, and the turnaround is right now! $BTC $ETH $SOL #美国加征关税 #加密市场回调 #BNB创新高
In recent years in the cryptocurrency world, I have seen too many "wash trading scripts" from the manipulators. Each time the plot is different, but the tactics are eerily similar—superficial chaos, yet precise underneath, hiding the same cruel logic. The recent price movements of a certain coin serve as a living textbook.
At first, the price gradually fell from 1.2U to 0.9U, the market was lifeless. No one was willing to buy, emotions shifted from disappointment to despair, and the group was filled with self-questions: "Did I pick the wrong coin?", "If I don't cut my losses, will it go to zero?" Thus, a wave of selling began. At this moment, the manipulators quietly and calmly started to buy in at lower prices.
Then, a dramatic scene unfolded—a large bearish candle dropped to 0.7U, and then quickly rebounded to 0.95U. This V-shaped reversal was too tempting; the old investors saw it as a bottom and rushed in to buy. The manipulators smiled—this was exactly what they wanted. Then came another heavy sell-off, dropping below the previous low to 0.65U, and those who thought they had found a bargain were trapped.
The harshest part was the final "panic sell-off." News started pouring in: project parties running away, major players liquidating, institutions withdrawing funds… the coin price collapsed to 0.5U. The crowd wailed, and the market fell into complete panic. However, the manipulators silently absorbed shares at this desperate bottom—large on-chain transfers were almost all concentrated in this area.
Then, a miracle happened. With a tiny amount of capital, the manipulators gently pushed, and the price soared like a rocket to 1U. Regret from selling, hesitation from outside investors, and the frenzy of new funds all converged at this moment into a perfect "blood exchange." Old players exited, new players entered, and a round of wash trading was officially completed.
Remember—the essence of wash trading is not to crash the market, but to change the players.
What the manipulators want is never your coins, but your "position"—pushing out the old investors at low prices and welcoming a batch of new players with higher costs. Once the chips are redistributed, a new trend is often about to emerge.
So next time you see a crash, don’t rush to blame the manipulators, and don’t panic to sell.
If you can understand the underlying rules, you will no longer be the person stumbling in the dark, but the one walking forward with a lantern.
Brother, are you ready to keep up with the next round's rhythm?
Ten years in the cryptocurrency world, I missed out on 6 million, but I learned to survive.
Ten summers ago, I took 3000 yuan I saved from working and rushed into the cryptocurrency world without looking back. Back then, Bitcoin was only 2000 yuan each; I bought 1.5. Three months later it rose to 8000, and I didn't sell; a year later it reached 60,000, and I was still waiting.
At its peak, my account balance jumped to over 900,000; I was dreaming of being a millionaire every day. Result—dreams shattered quickly.
In 2014, during the Mentougou incident, the price halved and halved again; I was scared away when my 1.5 Bitcoins were at 4000 yuan.
In total, I made 3000 yuan but missed out on the later 6 million. In the past ten years, I've been slapped by the market countless times and witnessed too many people rise to the top and then fall.
