In seven years in the crypto world, the first thing I learned is not to consider myself an expert.
Have you seen the 'crypto ascetic' staring at the K-line chart at 3 a.m., squeezing a coffee cup until it develops a sheen?
And I, seven years ago, became a 'digital asset practitioner' by going through this process myself. Nowadays, when someone asks me, 'How much money have you really made?' I smile and retort, 'Have you ever seen someone using a sniper's crosshair to hit a mosquito? My account balance is just about aiming at probabilities and pulling the trigger a few times.'
During the explosive growth period from 2021 to 2023, my account did indeed climb from a five-digit figure to an eight-digit one, stepping on the ladder of compound interest. But what I'm most proud of is not the numbers themselves, but how I managed to compress the 'number of trades' to a nearly cheating level.
