If the crypto world wants to change its fate, the first step is to keep quiet. Stop dreaming of trillions and billions every day; if you haven't even played with a seven-figure account, those ambitions are just cheap noise.

Ordinary people have only one way to turn things around in the crypto market: rolling positions. This isn't some advanced strategy; it's the only survival rule. If you get it right, the entire game will be rewritten for you.

Rolling from tens of thousands to 1 million is a watershed moment. Once that principal truly rests in your account, you'll find the world suddenly becomes quiet. A 20% increase in spot trading means a profit of 200,000, with no leverage needed. You will have thoroughly understood the underlying logic of making money, and the fluctuations of K-lines will no longer sway your mindset. The days that follow are just repetitive, boring operations—if you don't make mistakes, you'll live very comfortably.

If you haven't rolled out 1 million, don't boast to others about "earning millions annually." Saying that will even make the market look bad for you.

Many people treat rolling positions as a daily activity, but in reality, it's more like hunting. Using small positions daily to sense the market, while the real opportunities only come a few times in a lifetime. When the opportunity truly arrives, that's when it's worth putting all your chips in. As long as you successfully roll 3 to 4 times in your lifetime, going from zero to ten million is not just a fantasy.

But rolling positions has three iron rules; breaking any one of them could lead to total loss:

First, endure to the bone. Not every fluctuation is worth betting on. When there's no opportunity, wait stubbornly. No matter how itchy your hands are, hold back. This patience is more valuable than any technical analysis.

Second, only focus on certainty. After a significant decline, enter a long-term sideways market, then break out with volume—this textbook trend starting point is the moment to bet all your chips. Don't even look at other fluctuations.

Third, act quickly. The moment the signal is confirmed, put everything in immediately. Half a second slow, and the opportunity's door closes.

The crypto market isn't a casino; you can't expect it to open and close every day. It's actually a dark forest—most of the time lurking, with real hunting only needing a split second.

What you need to do are four things: endure, wait, seize, act. Everything else is a waste of life.

That's right, keeping quiet is truly the first lesson. Everyone around is hyping it up every day, but the account keeps shrinking, which makes me feel quite awkward. I agree with the logic of rolling over positions; the biggest challenge is the test of human nature. Most people give up before reaching 1 million and start to doubt themselves. Patience is indeed more valuable than reading K-line charts; this really hits home. --- 1 million is truly a watershed. Those still below it should reflect on whether it's a method issue. --- The metaphor of the dark forest is brilliant—cryptocurrency is like that—99% of the time waiting, 1% of the time going all out. --- Enduring and waiting patiently is simple to hear but hell to do. How many people have died in the first step of waiting? --- Honestly, if you haven't even grown your own 1 million, reading articles like this is like watching someone else's game攻略.

actually, let me break this down—the whole "100M to 1M" framing here assumes a linear wealth accumulation model, but that's not how portfolio theory works, ceteris paribus. the real variable you're missing is liquidity constraints and slippage friction on entry/exit signals. 🤔

Being ruthless is ruthless, but the problem is that most people can't hold on until that moment. I agree with the 1 million threshold, but going from tens of thousands to 1 million? The market doesn't offer that many opportunities for you. Shutting up is the most hurtful part; hearing people brag every day is really annoying. Rolling positions sounds easy, but how many can truly resist moving? I’ve never been able to resist. After hearing this theory, I think luck still plays a big role; otherwise, why do so many people end up losing everything? 3 to 4 times in a lifetime? How lucky do you have to be to wait for that? Some people have never caught even once.

Speaking harshly but sounding comfortable, I just worry that most people won't be able to endure until that moment. --- A million is really a hurdle; it was all just self-deception before. --- I really feel the itchiness of wanting to act; every time it's small losses, small losses, and then big losses. --- The metaphor of the dark forest is excellent; that's how the crypto world is. --- Rolling positions sounds simple, but there are few who actually execute it. --- Being able to hold back is the hardest; watching the plunge makes that itch in your heart. --- Getting from zero to ten million indeed relies heavily on luck; choosing the right opportunity is crucial. --- This theory sounds right, but can you really maintain the mindset during actual operation? Anyway, I haven't persisted. --- Enduring to the core—that sentence hits right in the heart.

It’s a harsh statement, but it really hits the pain point. Most people are ruined by the mouth-only culture. --- The matter of rolling positions sounds simple, but few can truly endure it to the core. --- I believe in the 1 million threshold because at that time, my mindset completely changed. --- "Even the market has to make things difficult for you" haha, this phrase is perfect. Saying it just makes yourself look bad. --- Patience is more precious than any indicator. Unfortunately, most people have long lost control of their hands. --- The metaphor of the dark forest is perfect; that’s exactly the feeling. --- Endure, wait, seize, act — four words are more powerful than a whole book on trading psychology. --- Those who can execute three to four perfect rollovers now wouldn’t be bragging here. --- If you don’t have seven figures and still shout about turning things around every day, this noise really should be silenced.
