In the crypto world, you can see two types of people. One dreams of overnight success but ends up bankrupt overnight. The other relies on systematic methods, gradually turning small accounts into large ones. I have walked this path myself.

When I first started, my account was only a few thousand USDT, a complete retail investor. But over the years, my account grew to over 50 million USDT. You ask what the secret is? It’s actually one sentence: don’t gamble recklessly, use methods.

I have summarized three stages and want to share them with those who want to survive here.

**Initial Stage: Practice with 1000USDT**
Divide into 5 orders, each 200USDT. The most important thing is to set take-profit and stop-loss for each order. This stage is about building discipline. Don’t chase orders, don’t hold onto losing positions, don’t gamble against the trend. Only take opportunities you see clearly. Many people die here because they lack patience and always want a single trade to double.

**Acceleration Stage: When the account reaches 10,000USDT**
Now you can scale up a bit. Keep single trade size around 25% of the total position. When the market moves with the trend, add to positions in batches to capture the middle segment. This is where the most profit is made. Many people either miss out or greedily blow up their accounts. The key is to follow the trend and not expect to catch the bottom or the top.

**Steady Stage: When the account exceeds 200,000USDT**
At this point, your mindset will change. Some people become impatient, thinking they are invincible, and end up losing everything in one last trade. My approach is to lock in part of the profits weekly and withdraw. This is not being timid; it’s the smartest move. You must understand that those who reach this stage are already better than 99% of people. Staying calm is the real way to achieve consistent high profits.

I have seen too many people blow up their accounts. The reasons are mainly three: first, chaotic positions, not knowing what they are doing; second, no stop-loss, going all-in until they blow up; third, correct market judgment but stubbornly holding positions until they explode. High-volatility coins like $PEPE are even more prone to this. A fan followed this method with 900USDT and recently grew it to 18,000USDT. He just withdrew yesterday, so excited he didn’t sleep well for two days. Watching his growth, I also feel the value of this process.

Ultimately, long-term profitability in the crypto world never depends on luck. It relies on controllable strategies and a stable mindset. Keep discipline, and your account will grow steadily. That’s what I want to tell everyone.
