Many people think the stories of getting rich in crypto are far away from them.

But those who actually made money will tell you—

So-called miracles are just the result of grinding it out at 3 a.m.

That year, I only had 2000U left in my account. Everyone around me said I should quit the game.

But deep down, I knew: this was just the beginning of my comeback.

# Why focus on 2-5 a.m.?

During this time, the US stock market is closed, Europe is still asleep, and Asian traders are dead tired.

Liquidity is ridiculously low, market makers are rebalancing the most, and price swings are the wildest.

Last year, a buddy of mine caught that SOL "flash crash and rebound," went 5x leveraged with 500U, and made a 200% move in the swings—straight to the moon.

That’s when I realized: the window for making money usually opens when others are asleep.

# How did I allocate that 2000U?

Not all-in, and definitely not reckless.

**First: 500U to lock ETH/BTC exchange rate**
This is where the big money battles. Catching exchange rate fluctuations means you’re already halfway there.

**Second: 1000U waits for the Fear Index to drop below 10**
When others panic, that’s when I get excited. I go all in.

**Third: 500U kept as "ghost bullets"**
Normally untouched, only used when funding rates spike above 0.3%.

That’s when I strike, targeting the market makers’ blood.

# How do I set stop losses?

I never put stop losses at "normal spots."

I set them at:
- BTC 4h Fibonacci 38.2% retracement
- CME futures gap blind zones over 3%

Those are where retail traders get liquidated, and places market makers never expect.

Stop losses hidden in the blood—they’ll never find them.

# What about after the account breaks 3000U?

The first thing isn’t to keep pushing, but to take 900U, store it in stablecoins at 6% APY.

With the remaining 2100U, I start the "death roulette" play:

**Use 70% of profits to go long on low-cap AI coins + short the sector index for a hedge.**

Last December, I used a WLD and AGIX hedge combo and made 470% in one week.

People said I was just lucky.

I laughed.

Is luck something you grind out by staring at screens all night?

# One last honest word

There’s no such thing as overnight riches in crypto.

All you can do is claw back your losses from the market, bit by bit.

Others cycle through anxiety.

But me, I build my arsenal with every failure—

A clear mind, execution, and that refusal to give up.
