$PEPE Everyone, I have to be honest—stop getting trapped in the cycle of chasing rallies and selling in panic.
$ZEC Have you ever thought that the real profit logic in the crypto world is actually very simple—it's just that no one is willing to do it?
I know a senior who once invested 100,000 yuan and, after a few years, his account grew to eight figures. One time over drinks, he said something I’ve always remembered: "90% of this market is just a herd of followers. If you can control your greed and fear, this place becomes your ATM."
Honestly, every penny I’ve made in the crypto space over the years ultimately comes from those seemingly simple but effective methods. Today, I’ll share my insights with you.
**First: Don’t chase small profits, and don’t lose big money.**
The most common way to die is like this—selling out when it’s up 5%, only to see the market double afterward while you’re left watching; or on the flip side, holding onto a coin stubbornly, watching dozens of points of profit evaporate. Most of my life has been wasted in this kind of indecision, and I’ve never really made big money from it.
**Second: Wait for opportunities in mainstream coins, and definitely avoid new coins.**
I never gamble on newly launched projects, nor do I play the game of bottom-fishing in risky new tokens. When mainstream coins drop to a point where no one dares to buy, I start to add some to my position. It sounds simple, but this is actually the safest way to control risk.
**Third: Add to your position only when the signals are clear.**
Many rush to buy at the lowest point, but often end up as casualties. I don’t aim to buy at the absolute bottom; I prefer to buy at a slightly higher price with confidence. When the market trend is still unclear, I stay put. Once the trend is confirmed and technical indicators are clear, I gradually add to my position. This approach may seem slow, but it significantly increases your win rate.
**Fourth: Take profits in stages during upward moves.**
With each wave of price increase, I take out half of my principal plus some profit. The remaining funds are left to fluctuate freely in the market. Since my initial capital is secured, my mindset is completely different.
Last year, I mentored a buddy who was badly trapped, losing nearly 800,000 yuan. He then tried this method. In less than half a year, he recovered all his capital and even made extra profit. Now he’s driving a BMW, and his mindset is much more relaxed.
To be honest—there are many smart people in the crypto world, but those who truly make money are often those who can control themselves and have patience to endure.
So, at the end of the day, it’s like this: while others are led by emotions, chasing rallies and selling in panic, you just need to stay calm, follow the real trend, and often pick up the money others drop in their panic.
Whether you continue down that "smart" path or choose my "stupid" but effective way, the choice is still in your hands.

It sounds plausible, but few can really stick to it. I've seen too many people who verbally say "don't chase highs or sell lows," but end up doing the same thing.

Sounds good, but the key is to withstand the decline without selling at a loss.

Here comes another set of motivational clichés, and it's making my ears turn numb.
Come on, earning just the principal plus half the profit? Is this logic even correct?
Nobody really wants to do it because it's simply impossible, bro.
I've heard too many stories about driving a BMW, but I've never seen one actually get in.
No matter how good the words are, if the market takes a dive, everyone is out of luck.

It seems logically clear, but what about ROI data? Without backtesting period support, it's still easy to fall into pitfalls.
From the perspective of the computing power network, this method is indeed stable, and the key is that the emotional cost is almost zero.
The real difficulty isn't the strategy itself, but the cold-bloodedness during execution.
Our ideas are quite aligned, but I pay more attention to the cycle length confirmed by technical analysis.
I agree with the idea of taking profits in batches; over the past six months, my daily returns have become much more stable.
That's true, but in extreme market conditions, this framework can also easily become invalid.

It sounds right, but ultimately, you need to keep a steady mindset. Most people lose out because of greed.

It's the same old story again, all talk and no action—it's just two words: wait. But I have to admit, this guy's way of speaking isn't annoying, and he really hit the mark.

It sounds quite reasonable, but I feel like I've heard this set of logic several times before...
