In one night, an $800 million liquidation occurred, and the crypto world staged a 'myth's fall' once again.
Last night when Bitcoin spiked to $75,800, a much more shocking news exploded in the community: Little Trump, due to a full leverage bet on Bitcoin long positions, saw his $800 million position instantly go to zero, going from an undefeated record to complete liquidation in just one fluctuation.
Prior to this, he was seen as a barometer figure by some investors due to his family background and past trading performance. However, the market from different perspectives and reputations cruelly confirms once again: in the face of extreme market conditions, any persona, halo, and historical win rate are not reliable.
🧨 Why is this event worth every investor's vigilance?
1️⃣ Celebrity effect ≠ trading ability.
Family background, public opinion halo, and even past achievements cannot guarantee future transactions. Investment ultimately needs to return to market analysis, position management, and risk control itself.
2️⃣ Full position leverage is the shortest path to self-zeroing.
Even if the directional judgment is correct, high leverage + full position will greatly compress your survival space. A pin drop, a black swan, or a moment of liquidity drying up can directly bring your account to zero.
3️⃣ There is no undefeated myth in the market, only disciplined survivors.
No matter who you are, violating risk control principles and allowing greed to drive you will eventually be educated by the market. What is truly worth following is not a person, but rationality, systems, and discipline.
🛡️ At Binance, we hope you trade like this:
Use batch building and dynamic stop-loss and take-profit.
Avoid one-time betting, reduce single risk through diversification; set stop-loss in advance, do not let emotions dominate decisions.
Use leverage reasonably, avoid excessive exposure.
Binance offers a full range of leveraged products, but it is recommended to always keep risk within a manageable range; leverage is not "a must use," but "to use with caution."
Pay attention to platform risk warnings and market data.
The Binance APP has built-in market alerts, funding rate monitoring, liquidation price reminders, and other functions to help you prepare for volatility.
Learning, and not just following.
The Binance Research Institute, live classes, and knowledge base are all freely accessible; investing in yourself is more reliable than following others.
🌟 Finally, I want to say:
Investment is a long journey, not a gamble in a casino.
What truly matters is not how much you won in a single event, but whether you can stay in the market continuously until it's your cycle.
Even the powerful can fall in greed and blindness, and ordinary people should remember:
Risk control is not a limitation, but freedom.
If you have also experienced losses due to blindly following trends and excessive leverage, consider this event as an opportunity for collective reflection.
Adjust strategies, consolidate methods, and make good use of platform tools —
At Binance, we are willing to be your companions on the road of rational investment, not just transaction executors.
Civilized discussion, rational communication.
