I am 38 years old this year. I entered the cryptocurrency market at age 30, and have just experienced 8 years of ups and downs. Over these years, I have witnessed the market's crazy fluctuations, countless people getting rich and leaving, and I have also been navigating this volatile market, accumulating six-figure assets.



Many people ask me how I make money—some say talent, others say luck, but honestly, neither is true. What has supported my ability to profit steadily amid market volatility is a simple, somewhat "silly" investment framework that I call the "343 Stage Investment Method." Today, I will use Bitcoin as an example to clearly explain the entire approach.

**Stage 1: 30% Position, Light Load**

For example, I have 120,000 yuan of idle funds to invest. I would never put it all in at once. The first step is to invest only 30%, which is 36,000 yuan. Why? The benefit of a light position isn't about losing less money, but about staying clear-headed. During major market swings, small positions prevent floating gains or losses from overwhelming you. Keeping a stable mindset allows for better judgment later. Plus, this approach leaves you with ample ammunition for subsequent position increases.

**Stage 2: 40% Position, Gradually Add**

Once the initial position is stable, it’s time to enter the rhythm of adding more. The key here is to operate in batches. If the market rises, I won’t chase the buy; instead, I wait for a pullback to add. If the market falls, I set a rule—buy an additional 10% of the position every 10% drop. This way, I gradually fill the remaining 40% of the position. Through this diversified approach, regardless of which direction the market moves, you can continuously average down your cost and reduce the risk of being caught by a single wrong judgment.

**Stage 3: 30% Position, Add When the Trend Becomes Clear**

The final 30% of the position is crucial for locking in profits. I never impulsively add during unclear trends. I wait until the market’s overall direction is thoroughly stabilized before deploying this last 30%. The benefit of this approach is that the entire investment process remains logical and brisk, avoiding missing out on hot trends while also preventing overexposure early on, which could lead to risks beyond expectations.

Stick to the plan and be patient; your returns will come naturally. I have used this method for 8 years, repeatedly verified it on mainstream cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, and it has proven to be stable.

Sounds very reliable, but I'm more curious about how much of that six-figure asset is actual cash versus unrealized gains on paper...

Reliable, the 343 setup really has no tricks, just not greedy. The ones who have been around the longest in the market play like this.

Sounds very scientific, but I still think the part about mindset is the most spot-on...

It sounds just like the theories from 2018, but what happened? Still caught in the same trap.
