Having navigated the crypto space for over 5 years and experienced four complete bull and bear cycles, my biggest takeaway isn't complicated technical indicators but a seemingly simple yet consistently effective investment system.
Many people are curious: can you really make big money in this market? My answer is: yes. During the cycle from 2020 to 2022, my account grew from initial capital to eight figures. Now I can comfortably stay in a hotel costing three or five thousand, watching K-line fluctuations calmly—not because of talent, but because I use the right method.
I call this approach the "343 Stage Investment Method," with the core idea of investing in three steps, each with clear rules. For example, with a principal of 120,000:
**Step 1: 30% Testing the Waters** Invest 30% of the funds (36,000) to establish an initial position. This step tests patience the most. Many people are eager to go all-in, but that actually sets a trap for themselves. The advantage of a small position is that you have ample room for trial and error, can clearly observe market rhythm, and make more rational decisions.
**Step 2: 40% Add to Position** When the market fluctuates, it's the real opportunity to build positions. If it drops 10%, add 10% of the position; repeat this to average out the cost, ultimately keeping the total position at 40%. Regardless of whether prices go up or down, this maintains a stable rhythm and prevents emotional trading.
**Step 3: 30% Follow the Trend** Once the trend stabilizes and the probability of an upward move is high, invest the final 30%. This isn't about chasing highs but about following the market trend. The entire process is clear, controllable, and highly efficient.
This method may sound a bit "silly," but those who can sustain profits in the crypto space are precisely these "fools." I've seen too many smart people chase hot topics, go all-in, and be swayed by emotions—only to get rich overnight and then fall back to square one. Those who stick to this method quietly reduce risk and compound returns over time. While others chase highs and cut losses, you've already laid out the next opportunity in advance.
The experience gained over these 5 years, exchanged for real money, tells me: the smartest investment strategy is often the simplest persistence.

343 is really awesome. I did the same three years ago. Looking back now, it's just about reducing mental burden, no need to watch the market and worry every day.

ah yes, the classic "i made 8 figures so now i'm a strategist" narrative... statistically speaking, this is *exactly* how every bubble cycle kicks off. the 343 method sounds suspiciously like dollar-cost averaging with extra steps, which tulip mania traders probably swore by too. funny how history rhymes, innit

Honestly, I've been using this set of 343 for a long time, but I just can't hold on... I always want to go all in.

That's right, but you have to take it slow.

The 343 rule may sound unremarkable, but it really works effectively.
