Many people rush into the crypto market with only one thought in mind—getting rich overnight. But I have to be honest: if you want to make big money, the worst thing you can do is gamble blindly.
I'm not some big shot either—I started with just a few thousand USDT, a typical retail investor. But now my account balance has indeed reached over 50 million. You might think I'm exaggerating, but that's the truth. I've never been greedy about how many times I can multiply my money in one wave, I just ask myself: is this opportunity worth entering?
How did I grow a small amount of capital? Let me share a few stages:
**Stage One: Small Amounts to Train Your Feel** Start with 1,000 USDT, split it into 5 parts, only use 200 USDT per trade. Set stop-loss and take-profit for every order—don't chase pumps, don't stubbornly hold, don't gamble on a reversal. Only trade trends you understand.
**Stage Two: Add Positions Along the Trend** Once the account grows to 10,000 USDT, keep each position around 25% of total funds. If the trend is clear, I'll add to my position in batches, focusing on capturing the most stable middle section of the profit.
**Stage Three: Regular Withdrawals** After the account surpassed 200,000, I started locking in some profits and withdrawing every week. It's not because I'm afraid of losses—it's to keep my mindset grounded. Staying steady is where the real gains are.
Most people blow up their accounts for three main reasons: • Position size out of control, addicted to going all-in • No stop-loss, holding on for dear life • Chose the right direction, but got wiped out by unrealized losses
A friend of mine followed this approach, grew from 800 USDT to 12,000 USDT, and just withdrew yesterday. He was so excited he was messaging until 3 a.m.
Going solo in crypto is really tough. If you lack experience and first-hand information, try to observe more, learn more, and find a rhythm that works for you.

It sounds nice, but it really tests human nature. Most people still can't control themselves.

Sounds like a sugarcoated dream. Is the fifty million real or not...

Sounds nice, but in the end, it was just luck riding a few waves of dividends...

That's right, going all-in is just asking for trouble.
---
Yet another fifty million story, how come it's always such a coincidence?
---
Cutting losses is easy to say but really hard to do.
---
I support the strategy of cashing out regularly, otherwise you'll end up giving all your profits back.
---
Most people lose money during drawdowns—I’ve seen several cases myself.
---
From 1000U to now, this pace is really steady, but luck plays a part too.
---
What's your take on this LTC move? Feels a bit weak now.
---
When your mindset starts drifting, it really is time to cash out, or you'll get bitten sooner or later.
---
All that fancy talk, but in the end you have to figure things out yourself—there's no universal formula.
---
My friend gets this excited over 12,000U; that's just how people are in crypto.

To put it bluntly, it's all about mentality. Too many people go all-in hoping to get rich overnight.
Holding and not being greedy isn't just talk.

Sounds nice, but in reality it's just being lucky enough to catch a bull market.
---
Fifty million? Let me just ask one thing: how much is left when the bear market comes?
---
I can talk about stop-loss and take-profit too, but when it comes time to actually execute, no one gives a damn.
---
From 1,000U to fifty million—if it were that easy, I'd be financially free by now.
---
This guy makes sense, but I bet five bucks that most people would still go all-in.
---
The last sentence is the most honest—what we're really missing is that "inside scoop."
---
Looks simple, but every time I do it, I end up holding onto losses and refusing to cut.
---
A friend turning 800U into 12,000U sounds great. Is the next line going to be that he's back to four digits now?
---
Position control, stop-loss and take-profit—do people only talk about these when their accounts are in the green?
---
I just want to know if this method worked in the last bear market.

That's right, going all-in is asking for trouble—I learned that the hard way too.
The most important thing is to understand the market before getting in. A lot of people go all in without even figuring things out.
Fifty million is impressive, but consistent withdrawals are the real key. I'm learning that approach myself.
Stop-loss really is a lifesaver. People who don't use stop-loss will eventually lose everything.
Averaging in is a great strategy, but it's easy to get overconfident with it. You have to constantly remind yourself.
My friend grew from 800 to 12,000. That's the right pace—without a get-rich-quick mentality, you actually last longer.
Feels like the hardest part isn't making money, but being afraid to spend after making it—always wanting to go all in again.

No matter how nicely it's put, it's still the same old thing. The essence of game theory in fund management boils down to just a few rules; what's truly lacking is self-discipline. Position control ≈ checks and balances—sounds right, but most people fail to stick to it by the second week.
