Teacher, I was wrong! Please help me operate one more time! At two o'clock in the morning, the light from my phone screen hurt my eyes. In the chat box, the student who once made me proud sent the last message—his account balance went from 23000U to zero, leaving only 300U, and all of this happened in just two days.

As a cryptocurrency analyst, I've seen too many 'get-rich-quick myths', but this time, I chose to block him.

Part One: The Beginning of the Story—The Trust of 1500U

Last winter, a fan who called herself a 'full-time mom' reached out to me: 'Teacher Zhanggui, I borrowed 1500U to enter the market, this is my last capital, please help me turn things around.'

Her story reminds me of countless similar cases found in search results: the struggles and madness of ordinary people in the crypto world. I agreed, but the premise is that three iron rules must be followed:

  1. Do not touch shitcoins (referring to the SHIBT project which went to zero in 15 minutes);

  2. Leverage should not exceed 3 times (beware of the painful lesson of liquidation at 20x leverage);

  3. Daily reviews, refuse to copy trades (avoid the harvesting tricks of 'copy trading traps').

She nodded, and the account started from 1500U.

Part two: Four months of counterattack — the game between discipline and madness​

In the first week: She invested in Bitcoin as planned, and the account rose to 2200U.

In the second week: The SHIBT project launched, and the community went wild with calls. She asked me: 'Teacher, this is so similar to Dogecoin, it has risen 100 times!' I directly screenshot the example: 'Going to zero in 15 minutes, are you sure?' She fell silent and ultimately gave up.

In the third month: She used 3x leverage to catch the Ethereum pullback, and her account soared to 18,000U.

In the fourth month: She secretly used 5x leverage to chase MEME coins, going to zero three times in two days, and her account dropped to 300U.

Key details:

  • She once couldn't sleep for three days, repeatedly scrolling through 'get rich quick tutorials' on social media (referring to college student cases);

  • Attempting to recover losses using 'borrowed funds for averaging down', even mortgaging rent (like users mortgaging properties);

  • Ultimately pleading in the late night: 'Give me one more chance, I promise to listen!'

Part three: The truth behind being blacklisted — the 'human meat grinder' in the crypto world​

Why blacklist her? The answer lies in three bloody realities:

1. The essence of the 'zero-sum game' of shitcoins​

In the exposure: Shitcoins are 'a gamble between project parties and gamblers', 99% of tokens do not survive beyond 2 hours. She once narrowly escaped SHIBT but fell to the obsession of 'one last time'.

2. The 'mathematical strangulation' of leverage​

Data shows: Under 20x leverage, a 5% fluctuation could lead to liquidation. When she chased up with 5x leverage, she happened to catch a 30% drop in MEME coins in 15 minutes — this is math, not luck.

3. The 'prisoner's dilemma' of emotions​

In the community, social platforms are filled with 'profit-sharing myths', essentially a viral spread of 'FOMO (fear of missing out)'. She is not the first, nor will she be the last.

Part four: Advice for all crypto participants — three iron rules to protect your principal​

Iron rule one: Invest with 'idle money'​

Emphasizing: 'Only use money you can afford to lose.' Her 1500U was borrowed, destined to become cannon fodder.

Iron rule two: Stay away from 'promises' and 'communities'​

In the scam, the fraudster used the 'Hong Kong big boss hoarding coins' rhetoric to scam away 7 million U. Remember: all promised returns are scams.

Iron rule three: Establish your own trading system​

Pointing out: 'Web3 content needs to address readers' pain points.' My system is very simple:

  • Only trade mainstream coins (BTC, ETH);

  • Regular investment + long-term holding (referring to the 'discipline game');

  • Stop-loss line = 5% of the principal (she once lost 15% in a single day).

The boss summarizes: There is no 'savior' in the crypto world, only sober gamblers​

On the day I blacklisted her, I pulled up a screenshot from when I first entered the crypto world — starting from the same 1500U, I also experienced going to zero. But the difference is, I learned to respect the market.

If you also want to survive in the crypto world, please remember:​

  • Getting rich is a survivor's bias, not a methodology;

  • Your principal is more important than any 'teacher';

  • The last advice: Never let anyone operate your account for you (referencing the risks of 'client asset management' scams).
