From 80,000 to 2.3 million, then falling back to 220,000... My ups and downs in the crypto world: these 4 rules have saved me countless times 💎
In 2018, I made a decision that shocked all my friends and family:
I invested all my savings of 80,000, which I had saved for two years as a down payment for a house, into Bitcoin, which was priced at 450 USD at the time.🏠→₿
When I went on vacation to Phuket, my account balance once soared to 2.3 million.
At that moment, I truly believed that I had hit the jackpot and my life was about to turn around. 🎉
But the dream shattered unexpectedly.
The bear market hit in 2018, and my account balance plummeted to 220,000.
I squatted on the hotel balcony with my phone, carefully calculating my expenses for the next few days.
The sound of the waves outside made my heart race. 🌊😔
Later, after experiencing many liquidations and losses, I slowly figured out these four "life-saving rules":
1. Don't touch assets outside of your understanding
I once followed the trend and chased NFTs, jumping in without understanding the project mechanics, and lost 250,000 in three days.
At that moment, I truly understood: "You can't earn money outside of your knowledge," is an ironclad rule. 🧠
2. Keep your positions stable to go far
Now my positions are strictly allocated:
· 50% invested in mainstream coins like BTC/ETH
· 30% for stable arbitrage
· 20% as emergency funds
Even when the market fluctuates, I have a solid foundation. ⚖️
3. Absolutely do not use leverage
I once faced liquidation overnight with all my contracts, going back to square one.
After that, I deleted all access points to leveraged trading—
Leverage is not a profit amplifier, but a capital harvester. 🚫
4. Only trust the information I check
Signal groups and influencer coins are all traps.
I only trust on-chain data + project white papers.
Before the LUNA crash in 2022, it was data that helped me detect the risks, allowing me to clear my positions and avoid disaster. 📊
Now, I no longer hope for overnight riches.
I only pursue a steady annual return of 20%.
The crypto world is like a night road, and those who can steadily survive until the end are the real winners. 🚶♂️💡
Most people are trapped in a cycle of losses, not because they don't work hard enough, but because they lack a guiding light in front of them.
The market is always there; following the right people and seeing the path clearly can help avoid pitfalls and achieve stability.
