The most frustrating thing in the cryptocurrency world is not the panic of a market crash, nor the despair of liquidation, but rather—after finally enduring to make a profit, you helplessly watch as you can't withdraw your money.

A few days ago, a long-time follower sent me a voice message in the middle of the night, trembling as he spoke. He said: “It took me a long time to get 300,000 USDT to my bank card, wanted to make a transfer, but as soon as I swiped the card it said ‘Non-counter transactions are suspended’, and my account was frozen right away!”

The money isn’t lost, yet it's stuck in limbo, visible but untouchable, that suffocating feeling of helplessness that those who haven't experienced it really don't understand.

The most ironic part is that he did nothing wrong; just a normal OTC trade to cash out, and yet he was inexplicably dragged down by the funding chain of scammers. Nowadays, scammers are too cunning, specifically targeting normal traders as the ‘end station’ for their funds. When police investigate, they freeze related accounts first, completely disregarding whether you are innocent.

But brothers, don’t panic, this situation can be resolved 90% of the time—just actively cooperate with the police, provide complete transaction records, chat screenshots, and transfer proofs. Once it’s verified that you are a good-faith recipient, the money will be returned through the same route.

But the process is truly exhausting, it takes time and goes through procedures. Even if your mindset is stable, you will feel like smashing your phone out of frustration.

After this incident, I shared all my practical experience in ‘protecting money’ over the years with him. To be honest, making money in the cryptocurrency world is important, but being able to safely withdraw that money is the real skill.

My current withdrawal principle is very simple: if the currency can rise, the money must be able to run away too.

✅ Dedicated card for dedicated use: Open a separate card for OTC transactions, do not use it for takeout, utility bills, or transferring money to friends; keep it clean and free of distractions;

✅ Recognize your counterpart: Only work with long-term partners and reputable OTC merchants, never be greedy for a few extra dollars in the spread, and avoid connecting with unfamiliar accounts;

✅ Split withdrawals: Never withdraw large amounts all at once, break it into smaller amounts and withdraw in batches. After it arrives, let it ‘rest’ in the card for two days before considering further actions.

Focus on BTC, ETH, SOL, BNB, and other core currencies, providing 3-5 clear spot and contract strategies daily.

Here, you can achieve: Say goodbye to losses —> Keep up with professional rhythms —> Establish your own profit system as a trinity, each part is indispensable.
