Don't remind me again today

At 33 years old, after two full years in the industry, an initial capital of 10,000 has now grown to nearly 10 million.



I haven't worked in a company since graduating from university. Now I just check the market and record data every day, and my days are quite leisurely.

Where did that 10k startup capital come from? It was saved during university through various side hustles - running errands, completing tasks, promoting apps, anything that could earn a bit.

At first, I thought the BTC price was too daunting, so I focused on ETH and added some leverage, while diversifying the risk with some altcoin spot investments. The strategy is actually quite simple: manage the position well, accept small losses if the market is not favorable, and go in heavily when the opportunity arises.

Why stick to the crypto circle? Simply put, it's about wanting to turn things around.

For ordinary people to make a comeback, this might be the most direct path. If you can't seize the opportunity to make money here, then it seems like this lifetime will just be like that.

Here's an operation logic that many people fall into pitfalls: the allocation of funds is more crucial than selecting coins.

For example, this classic dilemma – you have two amounts of money, if you buy BTC you made a 30% profit, but if you buy ETH you lost 30%, what should you do now?

A. Continue to hold
B. Sell BTC to buy ETH
C. Cut ETH and increase BTC
D. Full liquidation and wait for observation

Eight out of ten people choose B, thinking: BTC has risen too much and should take a break, while ETH has dropped so badly, it's just right to buy the dip. Both sides can profit.

So what is the result? The market often sees the strong get stronger and the weak get weaker - the sold BTC continues to soar, while the replenished ETH is getting deeper in the hole.

In fact, the most counterintuitive option C is the correct answer. Although it feels awkward to operate, the long-term yield ranking is basically C > A > D > B.

Where do so many flashy secrets come from in the crypto world? Choose the right targets, manage your positions well, withstand the tests of human nature, and when the market comes, the money will naturally arrive.

Damn, this position management logic is amazing. I was the fool who chose B among those ten people.

Selling BTC to buy ETH that move is really a classic way to get wrecked, I have a buddy who has done it.

Wow, this position management is really amazing. I used to be the fool who chose B, and I understood only after being rekt. There's nothing wrong with reversing the trend, but it's a life-and-death situation in there, man. Two years to a thousand times, how much patience does that require? I need to learn. To put it simply, it's all about mindset; don't think about getting rich overnight. This guy really has intuition; capital allocation is more lethal than choosing coins, no doubt about it. I also started from various altcoins and am now slowly returning to BTC and ETH, which is much more stable. Counterintuitive operations are the secret to making money; most people fail because of their human nature.

This story sounds absurd but is so real... To be honest, going from 10,000 to 10 million in two years, you are either the chosen one or a victim of survivor bias, but that trap of option B is indeed incredible.
