Why do so many crypto traders wash out? The brutal answer: most can't mentally toggle between completely different market conditions.



In certain phases, aggressive all-in moves work. You stack gains on top of gains. But those same conditions don't last forever. Then the market shifts. Suddenly that aggressive playbook gets destroyed.

The real survivors? They're the ones who can flip their entire mindset. When momentum is strong and capital is flowing, they go hard. But when the environment changes—when liquidity dries up or volatility spikes—they instantly dial it back and just take what they can get.

Most people can't make that switch. They either stay reckless when caution is needed, or they stay overly defensive when aggression would pay off. That mental rigidity kills them in crypto. The market punishes both laziness and cowardice, but it absolutely destroys inflexibility.

That hits too close to home... I've seen too many people die at this point. Going all-in during a bull market, still sleepwalking through a bear market, and just can't turn this corner.
