There's a well-known saying—rules are dead, but people are alive. However, those who truly live comfortably are still the ones who follow the rules.

Over the years in the crypto world, from starting with initial capital to the current scale, friends around me often ask how I did it. To be honest, I haven't looked for a job since graduation, and my current freedom is pretty good. Today, with some free time, I want to share my two core methods.

If you want financial freedom, you're only two truly actionable steps away. This circle isn't short of opportunities, but what it lacks are two things—patience and self-discipline. These are lessons learned bit by bit with real money.

**Core Strategy: Three 10x Coins, Steadily Reaching Tens of Millions**

It sounds a bit like a fairy tale at first, but when you do the math, it becomes clear: 10 million = three 10x gains. Looking at it from another angle, the problem becomes simple—just find three opportunities to multiply your investment tenfold, and use reliable methods to replicate them.

I only look for three signals when choosing coins:

**First Signal: Entering consolidation after a sharp decline, high probability of main players accumulating**

The coin price drops sharply, then suddenly goes silent—volatility clearly decreases, and it starts to oscillate. At this point, be alert—big funds often quietly accumulate during these "calm" periods. It's like an alligator holding its breath underwater, looking normal on the surface but secretly building up its position.

**Second Signal: Breaks previous high + increased volume, the big players are about to move**

The price surpasses the previous high, but that's not enough. The key is that trading volume must also increase—signs of large orders entering are very obvious. This is a classic technical signal: volume leads price, and only with volume can the subsequent price rise happen.

**Third Signal: The community starts arguing, it might be about to explode**

The bullish and bearish voices are especially intense, with various opinions clashing, and the community's heat skyrockets. This divergence is often the final phase of shakeout, and the price will soon choose a direction.

Ultimately, you don't need to watch the market every day. Catch these three opportunities, and you'll be fine. Hitting one is a 10x gain. It seems simple to compound, but executing it requires insight and patience.
