On-chain data captures a typical case: Address 0x074…9B748 completed a full cycle of emotional trading within the past 48 hours.



Specifically, this address hastily sold 3,296 ETH at the bottom (equivalent to approximately $10.3 million), fully clearing its position. The final profit from the trade was only $292,000.

The ironic part is—just two days before the clearance, the floating profit on this position had reached $1.266 million. In just 48 hours, the paper profit dropped from over $1.2 million to $300,000, causing a mental breakdown.

Stories like this are actually playing out repeatedly in the market. Whenever market volatility intensifies, a large number of holders are scared out at the bottom. They are often not lacking in position size, but lacking persistence. Those who survive the fluctuations are never the amount of ETH in their accounts, but the patience to wait.

Mindset can really ruin everything... Watching the paper profit drop from 1.26 million to 300,000, anyone would go crazy. But the problem is, he shouldn't have taken action at the bottom in the first place.

Mindset is really much more important than the amount of holdings. Seeing this guy drop from 1.26 million to 300,000 in just two days and directly give up, I truly feel sorry for him.

Ha, it's another unlucky one who got crushed. Dropped from 1.26 million to 300,000 and just gave up. I really can't hold on anymore.
