3800U flipped 20 times and got liquidated: I exchanged goodwill for the most painful lesson in the crypto world.
When he came to me, his 3800U principal was only half left. After consecutive liquidations, his tone was almost pleading:
"Bro, please take me along, I’ll share half of what I earn!"
I initially wanted to refuse, but seeing his eagerness to recover his losses, I ultimately softened: "I’ll help you, not for the profit share, just please follow the rules."
We agreed: to split the positions into eight parts, no single position exceeding 12%, profits to be withdrawn into a separate account for locking, and losses must not be delayed.
For the first 22 days, we proceeded steadily: analyzing the market before trading, strictly adhering to profit-taking and stop-loss during trading, and reviewing losses overnight. The account grew from 3800U all the way to 76,000 U, nearly a 20-fold increase.
He became increasingly excited, frequently saying: "Another push, and I can make a complete turnaround!" I repeatedly advised: "Maintaining profits is ten times harder than doubling them." He agreed verbally, but his actions gradually went off track.
On the 25th day, he went all-in on popular altcoins behind my back, without setting a stop-loss. By the time I discovered it, the account had already dropped by 51%. When I questioned him, he said: "This opportunity is rare; if we miss it, it's gone." I told him to stop-loss immediately, but he stubbornly waited for a rebound.
On the 28th day, the price crashed, and the 76,000 U was left with only 8000U. He turned around and blamed me: "Why didn’t you stop me!" I didn’t argue, silently ended the assistance.
I initially reached out with goodwill, but forgot: the scariest part of the crypto world is not the loss, but losing respect after making a profit. Many can turn a few thousand U into tens of thousands U, but few can maintain profits without inflating.
After that incident, I saved the initial chat records.
To constantly remind myself: goodwill must be paired with rules; assistance cannot outweigh greed. The hardest part in the crypto world is not doubling, but being able to remember why you started after winning.
True turnaround is never about the explosive growth of account numbers, but about maintaining one's original intent and the clarity of discipline. @juice13 #加密市场反弹
