From Liquidation Ruins to Comeback: That Dawn, I Had Only 800U Left in My Pocket…

Chasing altcoins on hype, I lost 600U the first time, unwilling to accept it so I averaged down and lost another 200U. I even had to borrow rent money from my roommate while glued to my phone.

Three iron rules I wrote in my notes during sleepless nights somehow turned 8.2 million U in a year. Now I quit my 996 job and trade from home. This is all hard-earned wisdom from losses:

400U for dollar-cost averaging.
Every Wednesday at 3 PM, I buy BTC regardless of price action. I used to wait for the "bottom," either missing gains or getting trapped. DCA is actually stress-free—earn returns on rallies, spread costs on dips.

300U tracking whale moves. Use tools to monitor mega whales, only pick major coins where top traders accumulated for three consecutive days. Last November I watched SOL, entered after it held previous highs, never chased or guessed bottoms.

300U as emergency fund. Only move it when BTC corrects over 20%. Used this money to average down at year-end last year, avoided repeating past mistakes.

Before BTC halving in April this year, SOL turned 300U into 1,050U. The BTC and ETH from my DCA also locked in profits.

Now my monitor is covered with sticky notes. The most prominent one reads: Never touch obscure coins, never use high leverage.

Nobody's born good at making money in crypto. I just became disciplined after enough losses.

Don't chase get-rich-quick schemes with small capital. Stay solvent and accumulate small wins—that beats 90% of followers.
