Don't remind me again today

#美SEC推动加密创新监管 Someone asked me how I've lasted seven years in the crypto market? The answer might disappoint you: it's not some mysterious indicator, just two words - endure.



From the first time I bought $BTC at 23 to now in my early thirties, my account balance finally broke eight digits last year. Now when I travel for work and stay in hotels, I don't mind spending two thousand a night; my luggage is covered with stickers from various chains, and I occasionally run into peers at the airport.

Compared to friends in the physical business—keeping an eye on inventory, chasing accounts receivable, staying up late to coordinate with suppliers, my life is indeed easier: no inventory pressure, no need to beg others, and no triangular debts. Of course, you need to have a strong heart.

$ETH Over the years, I've figured out a few "survival guides". I can't say they will make you rich, but at least they can help you avoid some pitfalls:

**Observing the market has its nuances.** From midnight to one o'clock, the market is most likely to produce a "bottom wick"; placing a low-priced order before sleeping often allows you to pick up bargains. From six to eight in the morning is the time window for setting the tone for the whole day—if it has fallen in the first half of the night and is still falling now? Close your eyes and add to your position; there's an eighty to ninety percent chance it will bounce back; if it has risen in the first half of the night and is still surging now? Hurry and exit, it will likely pull back.

**Do not silence your phone at five in the afternoon.** Due to the time difference, European and American funds are just entering the market at this time, and there are often major movements.

**$SOL Don't blindly believe in "Black Friday".** I have counted that the number of times it drops on Friday is about the same as it rises; the key still depends on the news and the overall market sentiment.

**$BTC will always be the leader.** It consolidates, and only then do the altcoins dare to jump around; when it crashes, all the small coins have to go down with it. Occasionally, ETH may have an independent trend, but don't expect the second-tier coins to hold up against the overall trend.

**BTC and USDT are like a seesaw.** When stablecoins rise, it indicates that funds are on the sidelines, be careful with Bitcoin; when Bitcoin skyrockets, remember to exchange some U to take profits.

**The most useful advice:** As long as it's not an air project and the coin has real trading volume, don't panic if it drops. In the short term, it could take three to five days, and in the long term, up to a month, but it will generally recover. If you have extra funds, you can average down by buying in batches; if not, just hold on, and it won't be a big problem.

My own classic case: I bought Dogecoin at 0.085 and held on for dear life until now, multiplying it over twenty times. The fact proves that in this industry, what you need to compete until the end is simply whether you can hold on.

The abyss has always been there, and there is only one light - whether to board the ship, you can decide for yourself.
BTC-4.58%
ETH-6.5%
SOL-5.94%
DOGE-7.52%

Really, after seven years of perseverance, I've reached eight figures? Why do I feel like I'm gambling? How strong does one have to be mentally?

After struggling for seven years, it's only an eight-digit number? Brother, your mindset is really something; I would have given up a long time ago, haha.

Can you really make an eight-figure sum just by hanging in there? All I got from it was a receding hairline, haha.

Oh my goodness, I have really been pricked by this ground spike from midnight to one o'clock, and now just looking at this segment makes me feel uncomfortable reflexively.

This guy really just relies on endurance, I think so too, but the key is to have a strong heart.

Seven years of hardship, and I came through it this way too. BTC and ETH have accompanied us all the way down, and in the end, it’s indeed those who can withstand it that survived.
