#美联储重启降息步伐 After years of hustling in the crypto space, I’ve finally realized one thing: the methods that seem the dumbest are often the most effective.

When I first started, I was just like most people—staring at candlestick charts hundreds of times a day, jumping into any new project rumored to take off. High-frequency trading, chasing hype, going all-in on new tokens—anything exciting, I’d try it. Account balance? Ha, it dropped so much I was embarrassed to even open the app. It took me a while to realize making money isn’t about being clever or outsmarting everyone.

Now, my strategy is so simple it’s almost laughable:

**When it comes to picking coins, I stick to the basics**—$BTC and $ETH, that’s it. I don’t even bother reading the whitepapers of so-called “100x coins” or “the next Ethereum.” Why? Because at least mainstream coins will survive the next cycle, while those flashy projects might disappear next month when their teams run off. I worked hard for my money—why should I be someone else’s exit liquidity?

**Dollar-cost averaging is just a battle with myself**—I buy a set amount every week at a fixed time, don’t chase when it’s up, don’t panic when it’s down. When the market’s good, I buy a little less; when it crashes, I scoop up more, treating the exchange like my piggy bank. Honestly, the first three months I was tempted—I kept thinking, “Should I buy more?” or “Should I sell everything?” But I realized the less I looked at the charts, the more I made. Over time, the line just naturally goes up.

**Once I set my take-profit and stop-loss, I go hands-off**—I set my prices in advance, let them execute automatically, then uninstall the app and forget about it. Last bull run, I didn’t sell at the absolute top, but I also avoided the crash that came after. That’s enough for me—I’m no wizard, as long as I make money, I’m happy.

Why does this “dumb method” actually work? Because it solves three fatal problems:

First, no more anxiety. I used to stare at the charts all day—when it pumped, I was too excited to sleep; when it dumped, I was too depressed to sleep. Now? I just live my life—the coins are there, whether they rise or not, whatever.

Second, risk is under control. The logic of dollar-cost averaging is to smooth out your entry price, so you’re not buying the top out of FOMO or panic-selling at the bottom.

Third, assets quietly accumulate. Every DCA buy is basically forced savings. After six months or a year, when you look back, the numbers in your account have grown without you even noticing.

Of course, this approach isn’t for everyone. If you crave the thrill of overnight riches and love the adrenaline of constant trading, this method will probably bore you to sleep. But if you’ve been schooled by the market a few times and are tired of losing money to emotional decisions, you might want to give this a try.

Getting rich slowly may not sound sexy, but it’s the most reliable way to make money I’ve ever seen. Wealth isn’t built in a single day of crazy gains—it happens bit by bit, snowballing when you’re not paying attention. By the time you realize it—wow, how did it get to be so much?
