I'm 33 years old this year, a guy from Guangdong who has settled in Shenzhen. I now own two properties—one for my family to live in, and one for myself. It sounds like a typical success story, but honestly, all of this has been built step by step over 8 years in the crypto world.



Looking back at the starting point, my initial capital was 300,000 RMB. During the process, the worst moment was when my account balance dropped to only 60,000 RMB, and that feeling was really tough. But it was this experience that led me to discover a method that many people criticize as "too stupid," which eventually grew my funds to the tens of millions level.

One of the most satisfying waves was when I used a certain new coin from a bottom position and achieved nearly 400x returns in 4 months, directly earning 20 million RMB. This is not luck, nor some myth—simply put, it’s the result of 2,880 days and nights of practical trading, trial and error, and continuous summarization.

Now I want to share a few core insights. If you’re still wandering in the market, chasing rallies and selling on dips, maybe these perspectives can help you avoid some detours.

**First Core: Bull markets are for focus, not for "buying everything."**

Greed has a high cost. Many people see the market rallying and want to buy a little in every sector, but end up not catching anything and getting caught in a bunch of positions. My approach has always been straightforward—focus on the strongest sector, only ride the main upward wave. When a new narrative explodes (like AI, RWA, DeFi sectors), dive deep into it, see who starts first, who has a real ecosystem, who was unfairly beaten down but actually has potential. Usually, grabbing a leading project allows you to ride the entire wave.

**Second Core: The principle for choosing coins is "buy new, not old."**

Old coins may seem cheap, but in most cases, their narratives have weakened, and the distribution of chips is too scattered. The rebound is often just a fleeting glow. The market itself loves new stories and new expectations. New coins have the potential for explosive liquidity and crowd gathering. The sentimental attachment to old coins? Honestly, it’s just a gentle knife that drains your wallet.

**Third Core: Cycles are the first iron law of the crypto world.**

A complete cycle takes four years, as history repeatedly proves. Near the end of a bull market, you must clear your positions—"greed" is the worst enemy in this market. I’ve paid this price before, but I’ve learned my lesson. Sell when it’s time, don’t wait for the "last limit-up," because by then, it’s often already a cliff.

In these eight years, I’ve seen too many people come in full of enthusiasm, only to be taught a harsh lesson by the market. Crypto can indeed change your life, but only if you respect market laws, control greed, and review your trades carefully.

look, the 400x narrative is mathematically compelling on surface level, but if you actually run a proper regression analysis on survivorship bias in alt coin returns, the probability distribution gets *significantly* messier. statistically speaking, this is textbook selection bias wrapped in a success story package.

Honestly, I believe in the 400x wave, but the process from 300,000 to several tens of millions... is it really that smooth? Were there no pitfalls along the way? --- I agree with the idea of buying new rather than old, but the key is to recognize who the true leader is, otherwise new coins can cut even deeper. --- The cycle theory is fine, but the problem is most people can't sell at all; when their mentality softens, they get caught in the full set. --- 2880 days and nights sounds incredible, but stories like this are told in every cycle, and in the end, only a few truly survive. --- The logic of focusing on a bull market is correct, but when it comes to execution, everyone is greedy, and seeing other sectors soar makes them itch to jump in. --- From 60,000 to several tens of millions, how many times did they go all-in? How brave must they be? --- I remember the phrase "the knife gently hollowing out your wallet," indeed, old coins' stories are no longer compelling.

I really agree with the idea of buying new rather than old; old coins are just a gentle trap. Honestly, 400 times in 4 months is a bit crazy, but I believe it's not luck—it's purely a difference in psychological quality and execution. Focusing on one track is much more reliable than sweeping across all sectors. I used to be greedy and wanted to hit all the sectors, but as a result, I didn't master any of them. The cycle theory is indeed an iron law, but it's really hard to implement even though it's simple to say. In the late stage of a bull market, no one is willing to sell. The real core is the process of bouncing back from 60,000, not the final 20 million profit.

Wow, from 60,000 to tens of millions... To be honest, I believe it, but this kind of move requires a lot of resilience. I agree with the idea of buying new rather than old; the sentimental value of old coins is really just an excuse to cut leeks.
