Last week, a friend who had only been in the crypto market for 3 months was so angry that he wanted to delete the app immediately. After a few weeks of rolling around with the charts, he finally earned 10,000 USDT – not too much money for a long-time player, but for a newcomer it is a proud achievement. He was determined

The essay argues that while many fear price drops during bear markets, true asset value is based on fundamentals. It compares Ethereum to a vital operating system for blockchain, emphasizing its smart contracts, security, and adaptability, suggesting that investing in ETH during downturns is a strategic move.

Yesterday, I saw a young person posting on the group: "Brother, this season's crypto can win anything, how can you lose?"
After reading it, I laughed like a fool – because 8 years ago I was just as naïve, so that from 30 million to only a few million left, the red account was feverish, every night I lay looking at the ceiling wondering: "Or

The essay discusses the author's decision to hold a long position in Ethereum (ETH) for nearly two weeks due to a planned strategy linked to a forthcoming Federal Reserve meeting. The author believes ETH will outperform Bitcoin (BTC) during this period, particularly due to an important upgrade in December that enhances its transaction processing, reduces network congestion, and lays the groundwork for future growth. The author emphasizes that understanding the technology behind Ethereum reveals its strong structural improvements, justifying the continued holding of ETH despite market fluctuations.

The writer discusses the recent surge of ZEC and the misconceptions among traders regarding market trends. They emphasize the importance of adapting to market changes rather than trading based on emotions or assumptions. Successful trading requires understanding and acknowledging market dynamics.

Many people entering the market carry a very "naïve" dream: "Wait for the price to drop sharply to buy – wait for a sharp increase to sell. That's rich." It sounds perfect, but I dare to say that 10 newbies are 9

Let's be honest before you start: Have you ever swung with a hot trend, learned "divine tricks", copied orders from "masters", and in the end the money was nowhere to be found – only to find yourself staying up until 2-3 a.m. every night wondering "Where did I go wrong?"
If the answer is "YES"... Congratulations, at least in this story

When the VIX index crosses the 25 mark – the threshold that represents panic in the market – it is also the time when crypto enters a bizarre volatility: people flee altcoins, others take advantage of digital gold, and a group recklessly rushes into small-cap coins in the hope of "catching the bottom of the reaction".
Government Events

Around 2 a.m., I was jolted awake by a phone call. On the other end was the trembling voice of an older brother who had been in crypto for years:
"Hey... my wallet just went to zero. More than 3 billion VND... gone in less than 10 minutes."
At first, I thought it was a position liquidation or a rug pull. But then he said

I once thought that just taking one risk could change my life. But in just 15 minutes, I lost 4,000U—from hope to panic.
That day marked the third month since I started contract trading. With 8,000U in hand, the only naive thought in my mind was: “If I use 100x leverage, the speed of making money will also...”

The sharp drop on 11/10 really left quite a few people "frozen in shock." Just the day before, people were shouting "this bullrun has never been stronger!", but the next day, when opening the app, their accounts were all deep in the red, as if a whole bucket of paint had been poured over them. Many members in the chat group screamed: "It's over, the bullrun has collapsed!"
But for those who have followed the market for a long time, the drop

In 2017, one night near dawn, I stared at the red words "Position Liquidated" — my account was wiped out, with only 3 million left. That was all that remained after I burned through 20 million of my own capital, then foolishly borrowed another 50 million to try to cover my losses.
Back then, I was so poor that I even had to count every instant noodle packet.

Around 3 a.m., while most people were still asleep, the crypto market suddenly surged with a series of long green candles on the charts. Chat groups and investment communities immediately became lively—some rejoiced, some regretted, some "slapped their thighs" for missing their positions.
But for those who closely follow global capital flows

You wouldn’t believe it just by looking at her: A 36-year-old woman, living in an old apartment complex in Hanoi, rides her electric bike to the market every morning to buy vegetables, and in the evening, she walks her dog around the communal yard.
But few people know that on her old phone, her crypto account quietly holds… 80 billion VND, accumulated from 20 million.

After 8 years of hustling in the crypto market, I've seen too many people chasing the dream of “becoming a millionaire overnight,” only to end up leaving with debt. But it wasn't until I personally experienced a fall from a 4 billion profit to being 300 million in the red, even having to sign papers to sell my house to pay off debts... that’s when I truly understood:
Crypto is not a place to gamble

3:00 AM. My eyes are bloodshot as I stare at the screen, my hands shaking so much I can barely hit the sell button.
A message from the exchange: "Trading pair XXX will be delisted. Please close your position before 18:00."
Half a year of holding. So many expectations. Yet when I open the chart, the market depth is as empty as a desert—no one there.

In the crypto market, there are always people complaining: "What can you do with small capital, how can you turn things around?"
The reality is: if making money in this market truly required large capital, then crypto would no longer be a place for those starting from a small amount.
What matters is not how much money you have, but how you use the amount

Over many years of trading, I have seen countless people around me suffer from the same affliction: information overload. They carry around a ton of indicators, keep the 5-minute and 15-minute charts open all day, zoom in on every tiny candlestick... and in the end, they lose more than they win, worry more than they stay calm.
What about me?
