#数字货币市场回升 Ten Years of Crypto Market Ups and Downs: Survival Rules from Being Half a Million in Debt to Having Over a Billion in Assets

Having been in this circle for a full ten years, my biggest realization is this — no matter how good the numbers on paper look, securing profits is the real truth.

The story begins in 2013. That year, my business collapsed, and I was in deep debt. I managed to scrape together 100,000 yuan and, with my eyes closed, bought more than a hundred Bitcoins. People around me thought I was crazy, saying I was gambling with my last lifeline.

The bull market four years later gave me the answer. On the day my account balance broke eight million in 2017, I was elated, feeling like the chosen one, and I started trading frequently, chasing gains and cutting losses, enjoying it immensely.

The market will educate every inflated person. In 2018, when the market turned, I watched helplessly as the funds shrank from eight million to just over one hundred; that feeling was like having a nightmare. After waking up, I understood a principle: no matter how high the numbers rise, if they are not realized, they are just symbols.

Since then, I set a strict rule for myself: withdraw the principal whenever the account increases by 50%, and mess around with the remaining profits. It's with this trick that I've gradually filled the hole, and now my assets have exceeded 50 million.

The market is always in cycles, but those who survive have their own amulets.
