No matter how the market changes, mainstream coins like BTC, ETH, SOL, and DOGE are just like waves in the ocean—rising and falling in an endless cycle. No one can predict whether the next wave will be up or down, but the pattern is right there.



Based on my available funds, my stacking strategy is as follows:

**Million-Level Player's Stable Route**

If you have sufficient capital, hold quality mainstream coins like ETH and SOL from now until the end of 2026, and sell at the end of the bull market. Based on previous cycles, doubling your investment is quite feasible. Although these coins are volatile, their fundamentals are solid, and you can withstand the pullbacks.

**Medium Funds Want to Take a Chance**

With 10 to 100 million, you should focus on secondary coins within promising sectors. ORD, ICP, SEI, SUI, ASTR—if you pick the right ones, it’s not surprising to see 10x or 30x gains in this bull run. The key is to have patience and mental resilience to endure significant retracements along the way.

**Retail Investors Want to Get Rich Quick**

With less capital, you need to be more diligent. Under 100K, the focus should be on discovering new hot spots and innovative tokens. Diversify early-stage projects; although the success rate is low, if you catch the right rhythm, you could see multiple times returns. Also, don’t overlook meme coins—there are indeed meme projects with creative concepts and solid teams, and buying the right ones can yield 10,000x returns, which is not a myth.

**Timing Is Crucial**

The market is still in the bottom zone, and we can already see some promising coins slowly starting up. Take advantage of any retracement opportunities to add positions decisively—don’t overthink it. Hesitation in the market only increases costs and risks missing the entire rally. In the early stages, heavily invest in potential altcoins, then gradually shift to BTC and mainstream coins in the middle and late stages. Getting the timing right maximizes your gains.
BTC-0,8%
ETH-1,03%
SOL-0,96%
DOGE-1,1%

Retail investors dreaming of getting rich quick, I just laugh at that—ten-thousand-fold returns, haha, is there really such a thing? Now, there are too many people chasing secondary tokens; only a few can truly buy the dip.

The retail approach sounds comfortable, but it's actually gambling; 99% of people lose money. Believe it or not, just one sentence from me. Can a million-level investment really be stable? If I can double my money in this cycle, I'll eat shit. Timing? Ha, that sounds nice, but it's really just luck. ORDI, ICP, these have already been through a round of being cut, and still want thirty times? That's too naive. Instead of thinking about getting rich overnight, it's better to think about how to survive and exit.

That's true, but the real difficulty lies in execution. Most people fail at the mindset stage.

Hmm... That's true, but can retail investors really hold until 2026? I personally don't have the mental resilience for that. Just looking at the ORDI and SEI waves, the drops in between were terrifying, and so many people got shaken out. A ten-thousand-fold meme coin? Ha, if it were that easy, there wouldn't be any poor people.

Basically, it's about betting on the right timing. Mainstream coins are stable, but the joy of doubling your investment still comes from altcoins.

Honestly, relying on predicting wave positions is pure nonsense, but this grading approach actually makes some sense. Retail investors just have to gamble on luck; playing with 100,000 yuan on early projects is indeed exciting. However, I think it's not the bottom yet, so let's wait a bit longer.

nah the whole "timing the market" narrative is just a prettier way to say gambling with extra steps, no cap
