#数字资产生态回暖 $ETH and $BTC bull and bear cycles, some people have achieved asset explosions by grasping the rhythm—this underlying logic is worth dissecting.



A 38-year-old investor reflects on his experience: from entering the market in 2017 to the end of 2021, his account grew from hundreds of thousands to nearly 40 million. He says it’s not about talent, but about understanding market rhythm.

Initially earning 20,000 to 30,000 yuan per month, saving to buy a house was obviously a long process. But after getting into digital assets, he realized a fact—the growth rate of a salary-based life far lags behind the increase in asset cycles. In 2020, he invested most of his idle funds, with ETH as the core position, allocating some BTC and a few small coins.

The key move happened during the big dip on May 19. While others panicked and sold, he instead added to his position at the low. Over a year later, when BTC broke through 58,000 and ETH approached 4,400 at high levels, he judged this as a cycle top signal and decisively sold most of his holdings. In hindsight, these positions indeed became the historical highs of this round.

From a paper profit of 38.51 million, he used 10 million to buy property, deposited 20 million in the bank for stable income, and kept 8.51 million in the market.

He summarized a few survival rules: no leverage, no borrowing to chase highs, only follow markets you understand; each operation must be confident, frequent trading often loses money on fees and emotions; greed is a stumbling block to getting rich quickly, taking profits when the time is right is often the hardest but most effective choice; ultimately, profits come from the big cycle dividends, not small gains from intraday volatility.

There are countless people hoping to get rich overnight in the market, but those who last and truly profit are usually those who can endure loneliness, dare to bet heavily at key moments, and know when to take profits. This logic applies to any market.

It's easy to say "take profits" when everything looks good, but when that moment actually comes, who isn't trembling?

To be honest, I’ve heard this logic too many times, and the key is execution... The 519 move was indeed aggressive, but 99% of people still can’t stop panicking.

Honestly, I've heard this story many times... The key is still mindset. Most people had already cut their losses at 519 and had no chance to buy the dip.

You're right, this guy really understands the rhythm... I think the key is the courage to buy the dip at 519. While others are panicking, he remains calm and takes action. This mindset is not something ordinary people can have.

To be honest, I've heard this story too many times, but the key is that most people still end up losing money after listening haha

Damn, I was also part of the 519 wave and took a loss. I'm still regretting it. Looks like it's really a mindset issue.
