#密码资产动态追踪 How does a principal of 500 yuan grow into 20,000? A true story of turning around in a bear market



Last year, during the market's lowest point, a fan named Akai came to me with 800 yuan. He said this was all his savings and hoped I could help him make a move.

Seeing his anxious eyes, I only said one thing: "Only take confirmed opportunities, execute exactly as planned."

**Step 1: Stay calm and wait for a key breakthrough**

At that time, market trading volume was shrinking, and the charts were dead. My plan was simple—allocate 30% of the funds to undervalued exchange platform tokens, and keep 70% in cash on hand.

He couldn't sit still and asked me, "Why not chase those new coins? I heard some people got rich overnight?"

I handed him a candlestick chart: "Look carefully, before a valid breakout, any entry is just gambling."

**Step 2: Secure small profits first, big profits come later**

About a week later, the market responded a bit, and platform tokens surged by 15%. He excitedly said he wanted to sell everything and lock in profits.

I stopped him: "Sell 20% first to recover the principal. Set a stop-loss on the rest and let it continue to run."

Subsequent positive news kept coming, and the coin price doubled directly. When he finally sold out, his 500 yuan had turned into 2,800 yuan.

His voice was a bit choked: "Finally, I can pay the rent..."

I poured cold water on him: "This is the result of waiting, not because you're smart. Don't get cocky."

**Step 3: Reuse logic, accelerate wealth**

After mastering this approach of "low position + waiting for a breakout + risk management," we caught two more similar market moves. By the end of the year, 500 yuan had grown into 12,000 yuan.

He insisted on sending me a red envelope, but I refused and only told him one thing:

"Making money in crypto isn't about going all-in; it's about using spare money, precise position control, and enough patience to wait for that real opportunity."

Now Akai can analyze the charts independently. Before each trade, he always writes a "failure plan." I think that's the biggest gain—teaching him to survive longer in this market.

Honestly, I've heard this logic too many times... Few people can actually execute it properly. Most just get itchy hands and can't stand seeing others succeed.

Wait, you're excited to run at just 15%? That mindset definitely needs some tempering.

Wait a minute, why does this logic seem a bit off to me? How did 800 become 500?

Ha, it's that same "patience leads to wealth" theory again... But to be fair, the pace is indeed tough.

To be honest, this logic sounds good, but the key is that most people simply can't wait... There are many who see 15% and just want to run.

It should be pointed out that there are obvious flaws in the argumentative framework of this story. The so-called "certain opportunity" cannot be fundamentally defined in its technical essence, which violates the basic logic of the market efficiency hypothesis. That said, on-chain data indeed shows that low-position strategies have better risk-adjusted returns during bear market cycles, and this is beyond dispute. However, generalizing individual case experiences into universal rules is a classic survivor bias. Akai's success is more due to luck's cooperation rather than a perfect methodology—that's exactly what I want to falsify.
