#RWA市场规模不断扩大 I've seen too many people treat the crypto market like an ATM, only to end up giving back even their principal. It’s really not that mysterious—the key is how you treat the money you have.



I know a guy who entered the scene three months ago with 1,800U. Now? He’s got 58,000U sitting in his account. Don’t be too quick to envy him—the real story is, he’s never even come close to getting liquidated.

He asked me what the secret was. I told him: treat your principal as money you’ve already spent.

As soon as that money hits the market, split it into three parts. The first part? Play the small fluctuations. Take a quick profit of three to five percent and get out—never be greedy. The second part is the main force, reserved for those obvious big opportunities; if the timing isn’t right, don’t make a move. The third part is the most ruthless—treat it as a sunk cost, used specifically to hedge against black swans, so you always have ammo in hand.

What’s most people’s problem? They want to go big right from the start. But as soon as the market wobbles, they get wiped out. You have to learn not to get kicked off the table first.

Never make random moves during sideways markets. In crypto, eighty percent of the time the market is just wearing you down; trading frequently during these periods is just handing money to others. The real opportunities? If you see two in a month, you’re lucky. When you spot one, get in, and once you profit, remember to withdraw half first. Only what’s in your wallet counts.

The hardest thing is always self-control. I make him confirm three things before every order: where’s the stop-loss line, where’s the breakeven line, and don’t even think about adding to your position. Sounds strict, right? But the only reason we’re still standing is because of these rigid rules.

In this game, a set of rules that keeps you in play is more valuable than any technique. Survive, and you’ll have more stories to tell.

From 1,800 to 58,000—it sounds simple, but how many people can really tough it out? The key is still that set of discipline, definitely not luck. --- I believe that 80% of the time in the crypto world is spent grinding people down. Frequent trading is really a suicidal approach, just giving away your money. --- Restraint is something that's easy to talk about but hard to do. So many people end up losing because of greed. --- Splitting your account into three parts is actually just a variation of risk diversification, but it does sound more appealing than the plain “dollar-cost averaging.” --- “Only those who survive have stories to tell”—that’s a great line, but the proportion of people who really make it out alive is probably not even a fraction. --- I just want to know if that guy is still around? Fivefold returns in three months—didn’t he experience any drawdowns at all? Sounds a bit far-fetched. --- Stop-loss and break-even lines really need to be drawn in advance, or you’ll make rash decisions and fall apart in the heat of the moment. --- Using sunk cost to hedge against black swan events is a good idea—it at least ensures you won’t be wiped out completely.

What you said is absolutely right, the key really is mentality. Most people are just too greedy and it destroys them. If you come in wanting to all in and double up right away, you deserve to get rekt. This three-part strategy is definitely tough, I'm trying it too, and as long as I'm still in the game, I consider that a win. When it comes to mentality about your principal, I think that's the hardest part, and very few people can actually manage it. From 1,800 to 58,000... damn, this guy is insane, but I believe he never got liquidated. What I'm most afraid of is being impulsive during sideways markets—I've lost a few times because of that. Self-control is harder than anything else, and stop-losses sound simple but are so hard to execute... sigh.

From 1800U to 58,000 in three months? Damn, that's insane... But it's true, only those who survive through discipline are the real winners. It all comes down to one thing: don't be greedy. I've fallen into that trap way too many times. Self-control sounds easy, but very few can actually pull it off. What baffles me is why most people have to wait until they get liquidated before they learn to stop. It's really a mindset issue—you're already halfway to winning the moment you treat the money as spent. Damn, why didn't I think of this three-way allocation method? Gotta give it a try. Staying in the game > Getting rich quick, that logic makes perfect sense. When the market is moving sideways, you should just take a break, but I always get itchy hands and end up losing money until I'm broke. That guy who turned 1800U is really steady—I need to learn from him. Set the rules and stick to them relentlessly. It sounds boring, but that's how you survive. Adding to positions is always the start of greed. Got it.

That hits pretty hard. The ones who really make money are all stubborn, not geniuses, just people who follow the rules. That guy’s move really shows what it means to win just by surviving. Wait, never consider adding to your position? I have to question that—sometimes building a position in batches isn’t just giving money away. That said, dividing your funds into thirds is definitely clever. I didn’t do that before and got knocked out by a black swan event. Being able to survive and make money is more important than anything else—can’t argue with that. I’ve never tried limiting myself to only two trades a month. I’m afraid I won’t be able to sit still. What should I do? Sideways markets are the most torturous. Watching the charts with nothing moving makes my hands itch to trade.

That's right, staying alive is the key—nothing is more important. --- My buddy didn't stick to the rules, and now he's still crying in the group chat. --- Splitting into three portions sounds simple, but very few people actually do it. --- The worst is getting itchy hands during sideways markets; the money I've given away in a month could've bought more coins. --- Going from 1,800 to 58,000 is wild, but I've heard too many stories like that. What happens afterward is the real test. --- The stop-loss line really saved me; one time it directly protected my principal. That's the only reason I dare to keep playing now. --- That black swan portion is absolutely critical; a lot of people never even consider that possibility. --- Self-restraint is easy to talk about but hard to practice. Now, whenever I see a sideways market, I just want to lie flat. --- It only counts once it's in your wallet. That phrase should be carved into your mind. --- Frequent trading is just giving money away; I've lost count of how many times I've taken a loss.

That's absolutely right—self-restraint is the only ticket to survival.
