Surviving in the Crypto World: Don't Let Luck Dull Your Survival Instincts

The most terrifying thing in the crypto world is not the volatile market fluctuations, but the ever-expanding sense of luck hidden in your heart. It's like a slow poison that gradually makes you lower your guard amid the volatility, ultimately pushing your principal into the abyss.

How many people hold onto the thought of 'waiting a bit longer for a rebound,' heavily investing without ever setting stop-losses? This is not trading; it's clearly placing your principal under the sword hanging over your head—market trends will not always align with your expectations; the longer that sword hangs, the sharper it becomes when it falls, and sooner or later, it will 'harvest' all the funds you have worked hard to accumulate.

90% of liquidations in the market stem from the vicious cycle of 'heavy investment + no stop-loss'; the remaining 10% who seem temporarily safe are merely those for whom the market has not yet turned 'against them.' With just one sudden pullback or an unexpected fluctuation, your principal can be instantly consumed. You always think that heavy investments can double your money and make you rich quickly, but you fail to see that this 'profit' relies entirely on luck and is merely a 'sweet reward' temporarily given by the market. The big market in crypto never waits for those who hesitate; by the time you realize you need to exit, a single reversal is enough to plunge you from 'floating profits' into the quagmire of 'total loss.'

Those who truly make money in the crypto world and can stand firm never gamble on such 'luck.' They do the most 'foolish' yet safest thing: they invest lightly, not putting all their eggs in one basket; they set strict stop-losses, decisively exiting when the market breaks down, never fighting against the trend; relying on steady gains from each small fluctuation, they gradually increase their principal through compounding.

What you see as 'short-term doubling' is mostly just the surface of someone else's operations—behind it may be one profit gained from ten losses, a 'highlight' obtained by betting all their principal. What is most scarce and precious in the crypto world is never the myth of 'becoming wealthy overnight,' but the 'long-term stability' of survival capability.

Remember: those who can survive long and go far in the crypto world are not the ones with the biggest guts, daring to gamble and rush ahead, but those who can preserve their principal and endure the fluctuations. As long as the principal is intact, there is a chance; only by being steady can you wait for the market that truly belongs to you.
