Nine out of ten people in the crypto world are thinking about getting rich overnight. I have to be honest: this path doesn’t work. To make stable money here, first treat trading as trading, not as gambling.

I started as a small retail investor myself. With only a few thousand USDT in hand, I don’t have any capital advantage. But just by following the correct trading logic and mindset, my account has now surpassed fifty million.

You might think this number is outrageous. But this is my real trading result.

So what’s the key? I never get caught up in the gains and losses of a single trade. Too many people are crushed by one or two losses, then either try to turn the tide with full position or just give up. That’s the biggest trap.

The essence of the crypto market is a probability game. What you need isn’t to win every time, but to ensure that the number of wins and the profit margin outweigh the number of losses and the loss margin. Good risk control, emotional regulation, and patience—these seemingly simple things are exactly what most people can’t do.

Want to make money in the crypto world? First, change your gambler’s mindset.

That's right, but the problem is that most people simply can't change their gambler mentality. Mindset is a hundred times harder than technology. I've seen too many people talk about risk control but end up going all-in with full positions. I believe the number over 50 million, but to replicate this achievement? Haha, nine out of ten people will break their strategy after their first big loss. The key is to endure; only by getting through those tough days can you succeed. That's why retail investors find it so hard to make money. It's not that they don't know the methods, but their execution is poor. The cruelest thing in the crypto world is that there's a life-and-death line between knowing and doing. Honestly, I've heard this theory many times, but the number of people who can truly stick to it is very few.

It sounds like a success seminar... but honestly, the jump from a few thousand to fifty million skips over too many details. Probability theory itself is not wrong; the problem is that most people simply can't do the math correctly.

Listen, it's the same story again, from a few thousand to fifty million? I do believe it to some extent, but most people fail because of their mindset, to be honest.

actually the algorithmic beauty of probability management in trading mechanics mirrors the generative nature of blockchain primitives... most traders fail because they lack computational discipline, not because markets are irrational

That's right, too many people treat trading like gambling, going all-in in one shot and then getting liquidated immediately. That's the stupidest thing.

nah this "from rags to riches" narrative hits different when you actually run the math on slashing risk... most people trading like degenerates don't even understand position sizing fundamentals

No matter how right you are, it’s useless; most people still want to take a gamble. --- Risk control, emotional patience, listening to all of it sounds right, but no one can really do it. --- From thousands to fifty million? That story is indeed beautifully told. --- The problem isn’t logic; it’s human greed. --- Probability games are not wrong, but unfortunately, everyone wants to bet that big one. --- Another story of "I went from a small retail investor to a millionaire," but those who believe it still end up losing. --- Changing a gambler’s mentality is no easy task; that’s the charm of the crypto world. --- What you said is correct, but those who truly make money never tell you these things.

It sounds right, but in reality, most people read this and then go all-in again.

This is the problem with the launch window. Most people didn't calculate the escape velocity properly and just rushed out, only to be pulled back by gravity.
