The rules of the game in the crypto world have changed. The old approach of simply holding coins—relying on education, background, and early funding—has become outdated. The real watershed lies in trading ability.

The story from a few years ago was: buy the right coins, hold them blindly, and achieve tenfold or hundredfold wealth. Now, it's different. Pure holding strategies face increasing risks, market volatility is intensifying, and a misstep could even lead to zero. Those who can survive and make money are traders who understand the rhythm, master risk control, and can respond flexibly. The times have changed, and so must the strategies.

Honestly, those who are still just HODLing need to wake up. With the market so volatile, it's no longer a time to rely on luck. Trading skills have indeed become the new barrier; those with poor risk management won't make any profit regardless. After this round, I realize that just holding coins isn't enough; you need to know how to trade.

The era of blindly accumulating coins with your eyes closed is truly over. Without some trading sense, you can't survive at all. That's right, risk control and rhythm are the keys to survival. Otherwise, you're just waiting for zero. Trying the old strategies now? You'll definitely lose money to the point of bleeding. The market has become more aggressive.

The strategy of blindly accumulating coins with eyes closed has long been dead. Basically, it's just gambling on luck. It's funny—do you still need trading skills? I think more people just need the courage to cut losses. Risk control, risk control—people shout about risk control every day, but when the price takes off, they forget everything. That said, how many truly understand the rhythm... most are still just newbies.

It sounds good, but isn't it just that making money has become difficult? You have to hone your skills. --- That whole approach of holding coins is indeed useless now; it's all about reaction speed to get by. --- Risk control sounds easy to talk about, but very few can truly survive. --- Trading ability? Luckily, I stopped believing in that long ago. The ones still making money are some kind of monsters. --- It seems right, but most people still can't learn it; greed kills people. --- One question: how many people really understand what risk control is, or do they just start talking about it after losing money again? --- I've seen too many people crash and burn, only to realize they don't understand anything and are just relying on luck. --- Understanding is one thing, but execution is the key. Knowing and doing are completely different matters.
