#数字货币市场洞察 36 years old, from Zhejiang, now in my sixth year living in Beijing. I own two properties in Beijing: one for my family, one for myself. How did I build up this wealth? All from six years in crypto, turning a little over 200,000 into an eight-figure sum by grinding it out.

You might not believe it, but I started out as just another retail investor. My initial capital of 200,000+ shrank to just 50,000 at one point, and everyone around me told me to quit. But I'm the stubborn type—once I picked this industry, I stuck to it.

My approach is actually pretty simple: I don’t chase trending projects, I don’t use flashy strategies, I just stick to one compounding method. During the wildest bull run, my core position multiplied 400 times in four months, and my account hit 40 million. I barely slept during that period, glued to the charts every day.

I’ve been trading full-time from home these past few years, and I’ve printed out all the rules I’ve summarized for myself, sticking them everywhere—beside the computer, by my bed. It’s not for show; I’m genuinely afraid I’ll lose my head one day.

Honestly, there’s no secret to making money in crypto. Mindset is a hundred times more important than knowing technical indicators. When your capital is small, you need to take it even more seriously. Catch one big market move a year, that’s enough—never go all-in impulsively.

If you can’t keep up cognitively, whatever you make, you’ll end up giving back. My advice: start with paper trading to get a feel, then work on your mindset when real money is on the line. If you’re going mid- to long-term, always keep enough liquidity—sell some when it rises, buy some when it drops. For short-term trading, focus on high-volume coins. If you pick the wrong direction, cut your losses immediately—don’t hesitate.

They say in crypto, seven lose, two break even, one makes money. The ones who break that curse are simply those who stick to their own trading system and don’t get swayed by outside noise. Luck might help you make one run, but if you want to survive long-term, you need discipline.
