#数字资产生态回暖 "Is it just for newbies to think that investing 5000 yuan in the crypto world makes you a rookie?" I've heard that kind of talk too many times.

Honestly, if this money is converted into USDT, it's about 720 coins. Instead of calling it betting capital, it's more like paying tuition — it all depends on how you use it.

My friend Akai is a prime example. Last month, I helped him plan his 5000 yuan principal, and now he's already made a second wave of profit from those gains.

In early December, when $ETH dropped to $3100, he followed my advice, withdrew $100 and used 3x leverage for a long position. Before entering, he strictly followed the MACD divergence signal, with a stop loss at $2950 — this way, with 3x leverage, the liquidation margin is about 7.5%, leaving enough breathing room.

Last week, when ETH rebounded to $3370, an 8% increase, he directly earned $24 from that trade.

Then came the most crucial step — I forced him to execute it: immediately withdraw the $100 principal and convert it into stablecoins to lock in the wallet.

Only use that $24 profit as "new ammunition" and wait for signals of ETH stabilization before taking further action.

Now he's grown his profits to $150, while his initial principal is still safely sitting there.

Having been in the blockchain space for three years, I've seen too many people ruined by a "gambler's mentality."

When Bitcoin plummeted 25% in November, the 72% of traders who got liquidated were all using leverage over 50x — but Akai, using 3x leverage with a diversified approach, has instead survived till now.

See, 5000 yuan is never a barrier.

By sticking to the bottom line of "using profits rather than principal to gamble," and waiting until signals are clear and leverage is controlled, small funds can still stand firm in this volatile market.
