《To Myself After Seven Years in the Crypto World, Also to Millions of You》

It's been seven years.

Recharge countless times, but never withdrawn even once.

I've witnessed the frenzy of bull markets and tasted the freezing point of bear markets.

Countless times I thought I was about to turn things around, only to be pulled back to reality.

As it turns out, this is the most genuine appearance of ordinary retail investors:

Unable to earn money from the hot trends, yet bearing the risks of those trends;

Having heard countless theories, yet still failing to secure a profit.

But I've come to understand —

We are not useless, not foolish, and not destined to be the lambs to the slaughter.

We just believe too much in the future, too eager for a comeback,

So we call losses "persistence" and treat deep losses as "hope."

From today on, no more blind rushes, no more all-in bets.

Learn to manage risk, learn to cut losses, learn to keep money for ourselves.

Even if still stuck in the mud, give ourselves an exit:

— Not to be wild lambs, but to be our awakened selves.

May all ordinary people:

Have less impulse, and more confidence;

Have less fantasy, and more freedom.
