Who understands this, my family! My childhood friend A Zhe ventured into the crypto world last year with 30,000 yuan, dreaming every day that '30,000 would turn into 3 million'. But after half a year, he was left with only 8,000 yuan and almost blocked me on social media just because I stopped him from buying those '0.001-dollar hundredfold potential coins'!
Actually, I completely understand the mentality of newcomers: with not much money in their pockets, they always think of shortcuts. They feel Bitcoin is too expensive to buy, so they prefer to gamble on low-priced coins, hoping to hit a thousandfold coin and achieve financial freedom directly. But after 8 years of crypto analysis, I've seen too many of these 'newbies', and in the end, they all turned 'small bets into big losses'. The problem is not about having little money; it's about not understanding a fundamental logic: investing in crypto is exactly the same as how rich people spend money!
You see that rich people never focus on 'cheap': a 500 yuan electronic watch is worn for a year and then thrown away, while a Rolex can be resold after five years for a higher price; during a downturn in real estate, suburban properties are discounted by 50% and no one wants them, but houses in core locations remain strong. In simple terms, the wealthy buy 'value certainty', not 'cheap prices'. In the crypto circle, Bitcoin is this 'Rolex', Ethereum is the 'core location school district house', and project teams are frantically selling their zero-cost issued tokens to exchange for limited Bitcoin. Does the status of this hard currency need to be questioned?
I never deny that some people make a lot of money from small coins, but those are very few 'information gap maximized + luck extremely good' individuals. Newbies joining this frenzy are no different from running naked across the road! The core advice for newbies (those who listened have already made money):
Fund allocation: 90% in core assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum that have been validated through multiple bull markets. Don't think it's expensive! Bitcoin can be divided up to 8 decimal places, you can get in with just a few hundred yuan; small-scale trial and error: the remaining 10% can be used freely, buy any small coins you want, but remember: as soon as you make money, immediately transfer the profits to core assets. If you lose, you won't feel bad, consider it tuition for a cup of milk tea; regular investment is king: don't watch K-lines every day chasing highs and selling lows. Buy a fixed amount at a set time each month, ignore short-term fluctuations, and long-term holding is the key to navigating bull and bear markets; give up fantasies: the probability of a ten-thousand-fold coin is lower than meeting a tall, rich man on a blind date. It's better to first rely on core assets to make your first pot of gold, turning 30,000 into 300,000 in one bull market, and then rolling it to 3 million in the next. Isn't two steps better than one big miss?
Newbies always think 'if you have less money, you have to gamble', but the most anti-human truth in the crypto circle is: the more you want to get rich quickly, the easier it is to go to zero quickly. Those low-priced coins shouting 'missing out means losing a billion' are essentially 'three-no products': no technology, no application, no consensus. Once the project team profits, they run away. You think you picked up a bargain, but in fact, you paid an IQ tax.
Now many newbies look at K-line charts and feel dizzy, hearing about 'hundred times coins' and getting excited, but also fearing being cut down to the bottom. Don't panic! I created this account to share my 8 years of practical experience with you: how to invest regularly most cost-effectively? When to increase positions in core assets? Which small coins are worth small-scale trial and error? Follow me.
