Most people in the crypto circle enter the market with dreams of getting rich overnight, but the problem is— the more eager you are to get rich quickly, the easier you are to get beaten down by the market. Honestly, instead of fantasizing about a wave that multiplies your holdings a hundredfold, it's better to learn how to survive.
I myself am an ordinary retail investor, starting with only a few thousand U.S. dollars, without a wealthy background or institutional resources. Relying on the "not greedy, not impatient" system I’ve developed over the years, my account has grown to over fifty million. During trading, I never get caught up in how much I make on a single trade; instead, I focus all my energy on capturing "certainty in the market"— opportunities supported by clear technical fundamentals, such as projects like BIFI, which are all structured according to this logic.
Breaking down my years of position rolling experience into three stages, all practical insights:
**Stage One: Position Control and Trial and Error** Start with 1000U to practice, dividing it into 5 parts (each 200U). Every trade must have stop-loss and take-profit set. The stop-loss is firmly fixed at 5%-8% of the principal. Never chase highs or hold against the trend; only trade within your understanding of the market. The goal at this stage is to find your own rhythm, not to double your money quickly.
**Stage Two: Steady Position Expansion** Once the account exceeds 10,000U, begin using a "light position, trend-following" strategy. No single position exceeds 25% of total funds. When the trend is confirmed, enter in a pyramid style with multiple batches, aiming to precisely capture the "golden profit zone" in the middle of the trend. Many people fail at this step because their single trade size is too large, and they panic at minor pullbacks.
**Stage Three: Regular Take-Profit and Cash Out** When the account reaches the 200,000U level, lock in profits and withdraw weekly at a 30% profit margin. This isn’t cowardice, but a way to prevent emotional swings. The trap in the crypto world is that after making money, traders often start reckless operations, eventually returning to their pre-profit state. Steady and disciplined trading actually yields the greatest profits.
People who blow up their accounts usually fall into three traps: chaotic position management, reluctance to cut losses and stubbornly hold, or correctly predicting the trend but getting beaten by emotional setbacks along the way.
A fan once started with 600U and traded up to 30,000U. After withdrawing the profits, he stayed up late chatting with me for an hour, so excited he couldn’t contain himself. Basically, it’s about mastering the word "stability."

To be honest, this set of logic sounds very appealing, but how many people actually stick with it... Most people start to get carried away after making some money, and in the end, they are still taught a lesson by the market.

That's so true. I just see too many people dreaming of a hundredfold increase as soon as they enter the market, only to get liquidated in two months...
I'm confident about the account size, but the key is the mindset. Really, many people just can't keep that balance.

It's the same old story... but I have to admit, going from a few thousand USD to over fifty million is indeed impressive, no doubt about it.

I agree with this logic, but to be honest, I have some doubts about the 50 million segment. However, the methodology is indeed correct.
It just feels like the current market sentiment is too restless, everyone wants to go all-in and double their money, and they can't withstand one or two pullbacks.
I've suffered losses in the stop-loss part before, so now I always stick to the plan once it's set, no matter how uncomfortable I feel, I don't change it.
The example of going from 600U to 30,000U might sound a bit like chicken soup, but if it's truly achieved through steady compound interest, then it's definitely worth learning.
This idea of being steady is easy to say but hard to do. Most people fail because they see the right trend but can't hold on to that part.
Position management is more important than choosing coins, and I have deep experience with this.
