#数字资产生态回暖 The truth about the crypto market: the scariest thing is never liquidation, but the moment of greed.



I've seen too many people whose account balances keep climbing, yet their eyes grow redder and redder.

A friend in the circle started with 5,000 USD and surged all the way to 100,000 USD during the bull market. We advised him to take profits first, but he just smiled—still wanting more, dreaming of 500,000. What happened next? The market reversed, dropping from 100,000 to 30,000, then tumbling down to a few hundred USD. After that, he never dared to open his trading software again.

I've also had my own stumbles. When my account reached 600,000 USD, my mind was full of dreams of millions. But a sudden correction wiped it all out to 200,000 USD. That moment made me realize: the crypto market is never about how much you make, but how much you can actually take home in the end.

Since then, I set a strict rule—take profits when doubled, always clear out at the first sign of profit. It's not about courage; it's about clarity. The numbers on the screen are illusions; only the funds actually received are real silver and gold.

Now I only focus on the market rhythm. Recently, a rebound has shown new signals, and I have already positioned myself in advance. Once triggered, I will update the group immediately.

The secret of experts is so simple: get off halfway up the mountain, let greedy people wait for the elevator.

When the investment drops from 600,000 to 200,000, I finally understand what it means to be sober. Greed is truly poison.

tbh the whole "greed in a moment" thing is just basic risk management dressed up as philosophy... technically speaking, what matters is your exit strategy, not your feelings about numbers on screen. seen too many people confuse hodling with conviction when they're really just frozen by fear of missing out.

This story is so heartbreaking. I have a buddy who dropped from 80,000 to 20,000, and now he doesn't even dare to look at his holdings. Exactly, greed is truly more terrifying than losing money. In that moment, even the look in his eyes changed. Doubling your position, I have to memorize this rule. The biggest enemy in this market is probably that little bit of greed inside us; no one can escape it. Wait for a pullback to buy in lower, don't chase the high—that's really true. You still have a good sense of rhythm in this wave. Right now, I'm mainly stuck on my position, and the rest is left to time.

Doubling up with this move, easy to say but hard to do... I'm the kind of person whose eyes turn red.

This really hits home. I am the one who went from a 100,000 dream to 30,000. Now I instinctively shiver when I see trading software, can't even smile.

Honestly, this really hit me. That guy who pumped 5,000U to 100,000 and then dropped back to a few hundred, I have someone like that around me too, and he's still in self-pity. The most heartbreaking part isn't losing money, but knowing you should run and still wanting to gamble one more time, only to lose everything. The moment he poured 600,000 into 200,000 must have been so painful... I'm the same now, once I double my money, I cash out immediately, no longer pretending to be a big shot. Those numbers on the screen are really just illusions; only the money in the account counts. The phrase "getting off at the halfway point" is spot on—what are all those people waiting for at the peak?
