The cryptocurrency world in the eyes of a novice:

You enter the market with 10,000, imagining that ten years later you’ll easily make 1,000,000 and sell, feeling quite pleased with yourself.

Reality hits hard:

The next day, your account plummets to 5,000, tossing and turning all night, your mind filled with candlestick charts.

Every time you're woken up in the middle of the night by a full bladder, the first thing you do is open the app, heart racing as you check the market.

After a year, you think you've made it through, but the coin price fluctuates between 1,000 and 6,000, leaving you exhausted.

You watch the market until your mind breaks, finally establishing a rule: "Sell if it hits 9,000!"

The bull market arrives, the coin rises to 8,500, you steel yourself, fearing a pullback and missing the chance, so you chase it up to 9,000, your position returns, but the coins have diminished.

Then the market pulls back from 9,000 to 7,000, you waver again, torn inside, the entire process is a rollercoaster ride.

And the result?

The coin skyrockets to 12,000, and you finally make a profit, but when you calculate it, it’s barely 20% annualized, and you comfort yourself with "that’s not too bad."

This is the true portrayal of a novice:

All in, full positions, cutting losses, chasing highs and selling lows, your heart racing the entire time.

The cryptocurrency world is brutal yet thrilling; it’s not about who has good luck, but who can keep their cool.
