#数字资产生态回暖 People who survive in the crypto world are never the ones who make the fastest money.

In my first year in the industry, an old hand told me a sentence that I didn't take seriously at the time. Later, after several times blowing up my account from over 100,000 to just a few thousand, I realized the weight of that sentence—"It's easy to make money if you have money, but surviving and making money is the real challenge."

Three full positions, three margin calls. During that period, my life revolved around watching the charts, trembling so much that I couldn't hold my phone steadily, fearing I would miss the market opportunity in a blink. Eating had to be hurriedly swallowed, and sleep was out of the question. I was living like a tightly stretched string.

Until one night, I poured cold water on myself—the market opportunities are so abundant that you can't possibly use them all. The real scarcity lies in those who can stay sober.

I began to rethink the rules of this game.

**From blindly rushing to an orderly approach, I divided it into three stages**

1.5 million to 15 million is the foundation-building stage, where I only follow the trend and avoid betting against rebounds. Take profits and exit quickly if wrong. Over four months, discipline became more important than anything else. My account gradually grew from a small number to a five-figure sum.

Then, over half a year, from 15 million to nearly 100 million. It sounds quick, but during this period, I was repeating the same logic every day—finding a stable way to make money, then reviewing intensively and continuously optimizing.

Further on, reaching 150 million or even larger figures, it became a "mental conditioning" game. Because the larger the amount, the greater the psychological fluctuations and losses.

These three stages have no secret; it’s about approaching the same thing with different mindsets at different scales.

**One premise, no matter how much emphasis you place on it, is indispensable**

The money you invest must be truly idle money.

If that money makes you lose sleep or distract you at work, then it’s not capital but a bomb. When market fluctuations happen, your emotions will explode first, and a margin call will only be a matter of time.

Many people ask me why I can stay steady, and it’s really this— I never use living expenses, tuition fees, mortgage payments, or similar funds for trading. My psychological defense line is different.

**And there’s a pitfall—don't fall into it**
