A crypto world brother's ups and downs: the true story of rising from debt to sinking into business K.


I want to share a true story of a friend around me. It's a bit heart-wrenching, but it's worth reflecting on for everyone venturing in the crypto world.

A few years ago, my friend was still carrying hundreds of thousands in debt. Later, he gritted his teeth and entered the crypto world, specifically trading short-term high-frequency contracts.
I have to say, he was really tough back then, watching the market, staying up late, studying strategies. After a series of operations, he not only paid off all his debts but also saved up a small amount of money.

It was originally an inspirational script, but unfortunately the plot went off track later.

Once at a drinking party, he met a so-called "good brother." This person took him to a business KTV, and he fell into it. The bright lights and the drinking, calling each other brothers, and the ladies accompanying you for drinks and chats make such occasions very easy to get carried away.

After that, he started the "life-saving" mode: throwing large amounts of money again and again to help those girls who called themselves "the dad who loves to gamble, the sick mom, the younger brother in school, and the broken girl." Do you think he is foolish? Maybe he just wants to be recognized too much and enjoys that feeling of being relied upon.

The deposits gradually ran out, but he didn't stop. Instead, he started taking out online loans to continue "supporting". The most classic moment was when he once said: "You mustn't eat instant noodles before going to the club, or else you'll throw up and noodles will come out. I'm afraid those little beauties will feel guilty if they see it."

I was both angry and amused to hear this, what on earth is going on...

Now that I think about it, it really matches that saying: let go of the desire to help others, and respect the fate of others. It's not that you are indifferent, but sometimes this world is indeed more complicated than you imagine. When you really need money, looking back, there are very few people willing to help you.

In the end, the only ones you can rely on are often your parents and those terrifyingly high-interest online loans.

The crypto world has given many people a chance to turn their lives around, but it has also amplified human nature and desires. Making money is not easy, but keeping it is even harder. I hope everyone takes this as a warning, stays clear-headed, and doesn't let impulse and hypocritical friendships empty your wallet.
