#密码资产动态追踪 Annual income of 400,000 USD? That number sounds great, but honestly, it's all lessons learned through bloody losses. There are no geniuses in the crypto world, only people who have been beaten into understanding by the market.



Those stories about easy passive income are mostly lies. What's the truth? Staying up late is the basic operation. The core market movements mostly happen during the European and American trading sessions. When you're asleep, others are making money. Last year, during those three months, I would go to bed at 8 PM and wake up at 3 AM—living almost like a nocturnal animal—but what did I get in return? The three waves of ETH surges in the early morning, each giving over 35% profit. People who monitor the charts make money; those just reading the news can only watch the show.

Don't fear big drops during the day; that's actually a signal of opportunity. The 99% plunge during the Asian session is a smokescreen; the real whales are waiting for the US and European markets to open. The most memorable moment was in July when Bitcoin was hammered down to 59,000, and everyone was shouting short. I placed a buy order at 58,500. When Europe and America opened later that night, it shot up to 63,000. The simple rule: the more fiercely Asia cries, the more aggressively the foreigners push up at night.

Regarding those "pinning" moves—don't treat them as accidents. A 15% sudden dip? That's just the whales shaking out retail investors. The previous spike of SOL to 125, and doubling in two days afterward, is a typical example. True market moves are never gentle; they are fierce. Once you panic, you just fall into the trap.

How to handle news? When there's good news, it's time to run. During the June ETF rally, Bitcoin rose for a full 7 days in advance. When the official news was confirmed, I immediately closed my positions and went short—then it dropped 10% the next day. The crypto market doesn't care about fundamentals; it cares about expectations being fulfilled. When news breaks, it's the moment to "sell the fact." Being a second early or late can mean a difference of a world in profits.

How to do risk control? My current rule is to keep any single position below 5%. It sounds slow, but that's why I’ve survived until now. To stay alive is to have the right to talk about making money. The most valuable thing in crypto isn't technical analysis skills but strict self-discipline. It's not about how accurate your predictions are, but whether you can control your hands. Knowing when to cut losses, waiting patiently, and enduring hardship—that's the ticket for top players.

In the end, the market is there to be operated, not to be buried with. Those who can't accept this will eventually be taught a lesson by the market.

There's nothing wrong with that, but hearing 400,000 U doesn't sound that impressive; those who really make money don't boast like this. Living is more important than anything, I agree with that.

400,000 U listening to the hype, but in reality, it's how many times you've been jolted awake. I just want to say, those days waking up at 3 a.m. to watch the market are not something everyone can handle.

Earning 400,000 a year sounds great, but honestly, it's trading your life for it. The ones who truly make money are never the boastful, but those who stay up late watching the market and treat themselves like machines. Those who just read the news can only watch the excitement from the sidelines.

Earning 400,000 a year sounds great, but in reality, it's just 996 overtime pay, and I have to get up at 3 a.m. The crypto world is a place where you exchange time and mindset for money.

Staying up late to monitor the market is indeed quite intense, but to be honest, if you can really stick to a 5% stop-loss discipline, just surviving means you've already won more than half.

Living is more important than making money, this statement really hits home.
