If you stay in the crypto world long enough, you'll realize that a particularly painful phenomenon keeps recurring.
Most people lose money not because they choose the wrong coin, but because they miss the right entry timing. They always rush in from trending searches, just in time for the steepest part of the K-line, lured by the craziest market sentiment to heavily invest and charge forward. Ironically, those veterans who actually profit from big market moves had already quietly reduced their positions at that point.
It may seem painful, but this is how the market operates.
**How big is the difference in returns between low-cost positioning and chasing highs?**
Think about it from another angle: the same coin, the same storyline, the same future potential. Those who enter at low levels can bear the mistake costs later on. But what about those who follow the trend at high levels? They almost have no room for error because there's no more downward movement left.
This is also why seasoned players keep saying—you must act at low prices. It sounds like gambling mentality, but in reality, it's a strategic pre-planning based on calm analysis.
**So, the question is, what kind of coins are worth entering at low prices?**
Cheap price ≠ worth buying. This is the most common mistake among beginners. Projects with real value for strategic positioning usually have these traits: they have experienced enough volatility rather than a single-sided surge; genuine trading liquidity and depth; chips are constantly circulating rather than being locked by big players; mechanisms like deflation and destruction are continuously at work; the community is growing naturally rather than being built on short-term hype and money burning.
These signs send a signal: the market is gearing up for the next wave of行情.

It's the same old story about entry timing, but it really hits the mark.
That's right, your judgment gets clouded when chasing highs.
The group that entered early at low levels has already made a fortune, while we're still picking up the pieces on trending searches.
The question is, how do we determine when it's truly a low point? Who can predict it accurately?
This wave of market momentum is building up, but how long do we have to wait for the next one?

Basically, it means that retail investors will never keep up with the rhythm; by the time the big players have finished their manipulations, they're already shouting to buy in.

That's right, it's the kind of chasing gains and selling losses that only results in heavy losses before learning.

That's so true, the difference between entering at the right time and a little late is really worlds apart.
It's the same old story again, those who chase high deserve to get cut.
Accumulating coins at low levels is the real strategy; that's exactly how I do it.
99% of those trending on hot searches are cannon fodder, and that's nothing new.
Buying just because the price is cheap? That's just a rookie's way of inviting trouble.
Focus on community growth rather than relying on money burning; this is very crucial.
Getting the timing right is more important than choosing the right coin, really.
Big players have already run away, and you're still chasing the rise—laughable.

Honestly, timing the entry is a thousand times more important than choosing the right coin. I've learned this the hard way.
Jumping in at trending searches is like seeking death; seasoned traders have long been quietly making profits.
Buying at low points and chasing high can differ by five or ten times—that's the secret to wealth.
Cheap coins aren't necessarily worth buying; you need to look at details like chip circulation and community growth, otherwise it's just trash coins.
I used to buy at high points, but now I've changed my strategy to lurking at low prices, and I've really recovered my losses.
