The reason why many can't survive in the crypto world is that nine out of ten are not wrong about the direction.

The real way to die is like this: caught in a trap and refusing to admit it, unwilling to cut losses after losing, finally going all-in and hard resisting, still shouting in various groups "I'll sell when there's a rebound."

Wake up, you're not waiting for a rebound, you're waiting for the market to have a conscience and forgive you one day.

I was severely taught this lesson back in 2019. Chasing high and going all-in, only thinking about how to get out of the trap, but the market didn't bother to wait for you, it just hammered you with a big bearish candle. At that moment, I understood: 99% of people in the crypto world are not wiped out by losses, but dragged to death by time.

Later, I spent a lot of effort reviewing those failed liquidation cases and found that the problems are actually not complicated at all, fundamentally boils down to these two points—

Overly heavy positions, wildly unrealistic fantasies.

Since then, I set a "survival" liquidation process for myself:

**Step 1: Forget about making money, stop the bleeding first.**

The moment you're caught, you have to accept a reality: this trade was wrong from the second you bought in. Since it's wrong, don't play by the original rules. Cut your position down to a level where you can sleep well, otherwise you're not really solving the problem, you're just saving your life at a critical moment.

**Step 2: Use time to buy space, don't use faith to chase miracles.**

Those rebounds in a weak market are not meant to help you get out, they are opportunities to reduce your position. Rebounding and still reluctant to sell is like giving away free money. True liquidation is never about going all-in and walking away, but about cutting your cost step by step and diversifying risk.

**Step 3: Don't add to your position before the trend reverses.**

There are many people still throwing money in when caught, calling it "diluting the cost." But in reality, that's leveraging a wrong decision. The only premise for adding to your position is that the trend has indeed reversed. Otherwise, the more frequently you add, the more thoroughly you'll die in the end.

**Step 4: Rebuild your position structure.**

Use mainstream coins to pass the time and wait for rebounds, strong small coins for swing trading, and zero-value coins as tuition for life reflection. If you can't get out of the trap now, to be honest, it's probably not the market's problem but your position structure that is fundamentally messed up.

And finally, there's a phrase many people don't want to hear—

Liquidation should not be the goal; surviving is the real goal.

Being able to lose less and walk away is a skill; being able to hold cash and wait for opportunities is true mastery. There is no curse in the crypto world that says "must recover the principal," only the question "do I still have a chance to participate in the next round of the market?"

When you truly learn to prioritize survival after being caught, only then will you be qualified to solve the problem. #美国消费者物价指数发布在即 $BTC $BNB
