My eight years in the cryptocurrency world, from 30,000 to 30 million, relied not on luck, but on the inherent "rebellion" within.

In the winter of 2016, BTC crashed to $756 in the dead of night.

I only had 30,000 left in my account, and I had to pay my rent three months in advance.

A friend urged me to buy the dip, but I couldn't even understand the candlestick charts.

He simply said: survive first, then talk about making money.

I transferred the 30,000 to the exchange, my hands trembling.

That was not gambling; it was surrender—only those who surrender will arm themselves.

I fell into a pit on my first try because I didn't understand and went all in, losing half my investment in a week.

From that day, I established my first rule: any rise I don’t understand is a bait.

From then on, I only engaged in two types of market conditions:

Only consider selling during a drop of more than 20%; only dare to add positions during a slow decline or rapid rise.

In 2018, BTC lay flat at $3200, with trading volume shrinking to a line.

I invested 100 U daily, like adding firewood in winter, and after six months, I lowered my cost to 3800.

Others criticized me for being slow; I just wanted to survive.

Then the major rally started, and for the first time, my account hit seven figures.

In 2020, UNI dropped from $8 to $2.5, and the community was in despair.

I added to my position every time it dropped by 20%, grinding my cost down to 3.1.

The next year, UNI surged to $40; this trade was 12 times, making me 2.4 million.

For the first time, I understood: profit is not a number; it is ammunition.

In 2021, Dogecoin had a frenzy, doubling in one day.

But I looked at the on-chain data: the trading volume had dropped for seven consecutive days, so I liquidated my position that night.

Three days later, it was halved.

Retracement had nothing to do with me.

That time I learned: the real danger is not the noise, but the sudden silence.

After eight years, I only believe in three statements:

The bottom is "ground" out, not "speculated".

A single day of explosive growth + high volume selling = run quickly.

When you think, "the market is just like this," danger is already close to your face.

I wrote them as reminders and sent them to myself every day at 9:30:

"If the signal hasn’t arrived, don’t cut just because you’re anxious."

Don’t rely on feelings; rely on execution. Let emotions roll away.

The market is brewing; don’t wander around in the dark alone.
