#大户持仓动态 The day my account plummeted from 20,000 USDT straight down to 1,000 USDT, I was truly panicked. I kept an eye on the market all night, and every flicker of the K-line felt like a stab to the heart. It was like losing your mind at the gambling table, with rationality completely drowned by fear.



But when I woke up the next day, I suddenly understood—rather than blaming the merciless market, it’s better to reflect on where I went wrong. After that, I changed my way of living.

**First Trick: Learn to Live**

When I had 1,000 USDT, I thought: don’t worry about how much I can make, just survive tonight first. I completely eliminated words like full position, all-in, and gamble everything from my mind. Every time I made a profit, I would take out 30%, and only use the remaining to look for the next opportunity. Sounds slow and conservative? Yes, but at least I wouldn’t die. The gradual accumulation may seem slow, but it never resets to zero overnight. Sometimes, living longer is the biggest win.

**Second Trick: Follow the Market’s Rhythm**

I used to try to catch the bottom and escape the top, but the market kept teaching me lessons. Later, I realized there’s no need to bet on the market’s turning point. The visible trend is enough; just go with the fluctuations. Know when to stop and when to admit defeat. Sometimes, the market rewards not those who gamble wildly, but those who are patient and willing to wait. Being cautious and giving up may sound depressing, but in the crypto world, it’s actually a form of wisdom.

**Third Trick: Self-discipline is more valuable than anything**

Having a small position indeed means not making much profit, but if your position is chaotic and your mindset collapses, you might not even survive. I choose stability—steady position, steady mindset, steady execution. After three months, that 1,000 USDT turned into 30,000. It’s not some miracle; it’s the result of countless stop-losses, reviews, and sleepless nights. Every time was tough, but it was these struggles that kept me alive.

Someone asked me what my secret was, and I just smiled. No greed, no panic, no impulsiveness. The crypto world never lacks people who can make a quick profit; what’s missing are those who can survive multiple cycles. The market cycles endlessly, opportunities are always there, the key is whether you are still in the game.

Really, I understand that feeling the moment 20,000 drops to 1,000, but now it seems that going all-in is just courting death.

Honestly, I’ve experienced the moment when the price dropped from 20,000 to 1,000. That feeling was truly absolute. But this guy managed to go from悟道 to 30,000, and the key is he didn’t go all-in. I have to admire that. Cutting profits by 30% sounds conservative, but it really is the essence of survival. The crypto world is just like that; when you're dead, you don’t get a chance to review. Admitting defeat is also a skill, and that’s so true. I’m just a bit curious, how did you triple your holdings in three months? It feels like the market never gave me such an opportunity. Surviving several cycles is definitely more valuable than making a big profit in one wave. Not many people see through this. Wait, is "not moving" really true? Then what exactly did you do in these three months?

When it dropped from 20,000 to 1,000, I could understand that suffocating feeling... To be honest, I've heard too many stories like that, but few actually survive.

Really speaking, the feeling of dropping from 200,000 to 1,000... I understand, I understand too well. But this guy's later reflection is worth learning from; not everyone can crawl out of despair and still gain some insights.

When it dropped from 20,000 to 1,000, I also went through that moment. To be honest, that feeling was truly despairing. However, this guy's final summary is quite honest; being alive really is more important than anything else.
