10 years in the cryptocurrency circle, I finally understand: every person in the crypto world cannot escape these 4 levels of tribulations!
What is the crypto world? $PIPPIN
It is a battlefield without heaven or earth, a place where financial freedom and the hell of liquidation coexist!
Some become gods overnight, while others go to zero in a second.
But what determines your destiny is not the market, but — what level have you reached?
I went from 2 million to 60 million, and then back from hell to the human world, seeing these 4 levels of tribulations clearly:
First level: New Ghost — Emotions Play You
When you first enter the circle, you are always led by the market:
Panic when it rises, fear when it falls, and your mindset collapses during fluctuations.
Seeing others make money, you rush in; when you just buy it drops, you cut losses; after cutting losses it rises, you curse the heavens and the earth.
An overnight flash crash and you go directly “out of your body.”
Conclusion: It’s not the market that kills you, it’s being repeatedly beaten by emotions!
Second level: Awakening — Starting to Understand a Bit
After experiencing a few “bloodbaths”, you suddenly realize:
Oh, the market isn’t moving randomly,
Key levels really matter,
Trends are the foundation of making money.
You start to avoid random orders, learn to wait, learn to endure, and learn to let the market come to you.
Third level: Old Monster — System Returns
People at this level can truly be called “traders.”
You have stop losses, take profits, rhythm, and planning.
No matter how chaotic the market is, your mindset is as steady as an old dog.
Finally able to sleep at night, no longer awakened at three in the morning by your phone, shocked to the point of a racing heart.
Making money becomes a “natural” thing from now on.
Fourth level: Demonic Tribulation — Nightmare of Recovery
But the harshest is this level.
You think you understand, so you start to leverage heavily, go all in, and take risks.
“I'll recover with this trade!”
What’s the result?
Your account halves in a day, goes to zero in three days, and you are left begging the market for mercy.
Risk management? Forgotten.
Rhythm? Lost.
Rationality? Shattered.
The whole person falls into the “hell of recovery”,
The more anxious, the more you lose; the more you lose, the more anxious, being slapped in the face by the market.
If you are at this level — stop! The abyss lies ahead!
The crypto world doesn’t rely on luck, but on upgrading your understanding.
Recognizing which level you are at is the only way to survive.
Every level you pass lays the groundwork for the next sudden wealth.
A harsh word:
Those who can survive the four tribulations will eventually become big shots;
Those who die halfway become stories.
