A friend's experience perfectly illustrates the saying "Once you get involved with contracts, ordinary people can't handle it."


He started by testing the waters with just 1,500 yuan, purely for fun. Within two days, he went straight up to 40,000!
At that time, he was on cloud nine, telling everyone "I'm the next Buffett of the crypto world," thinking making money was a breeze, and his regular salary was just peanuts.
Unfortunately, good times didn't last. He heavily leveraged, went all-in, and stubbornly held onto losses. After a series of operations, his 40,000 yuan shrank to just a few hundred.
Should he have woken up then? Quite the opposite—he got completely hooked.
He stayed up all night watching charts, barely eating, with only K-line charts in his eyes. He would curse "contract dogs don't play," but whenever the market fluctuated, he’d jump in faster than anyone.
Why can't he quit? The core reason is one word: speed.
With leverage of dozens of times, if the market moves right, funds double in seconds. It’s ten times more exciting than stock trading and more addictive than gambling.
In stocks, a daily fluctuation of 10% is huge; in crypto, doubling or halving in a single day is common.
Once you've tasted that sweet feeling of earning while lying down, your mind is only fixated on one obsession: I will surely make a comeback.
But the reality is, most people don't wait for that turnaround—they get wiped out by the market, even losing their principal.
This thing isn't about greed; it's because it's so thrilling and fast, like an inescapable dream of sudden wealth.
The more beautiful the dream, the greater the fall, and it's as hard as climbing a mountain to turn back.
