Brothers, I am Qianwen.
These past few months, I believe everyone has seen what’s been happening, and I’ve kept it in my heart. I’ve thought about it repeatedly. Today, I want to settle down and honestly share with you my experiences during this time, the guilt I feel, and my plans for the future.
From the very beginning of entering crypto trading, I started with a pure heart and took it step by step. In four months, I achieved impressive returns, became a star trader on the Gate platform, with my profit rate reaching Top 2, and the funds I managed kept growing. At that time, I was full of the hope to steadily profit with everyone and live up to every bit of trust placed in me. But gradually, people’s hearts started to change. As my results improved, I also became inflated, and my mindset completely unraveled.
I fell into a vicious cycle—my account was halved, then halved again, and again. Repeated mistakes, lucky escapes—eventually, I made a huge error. Just the day before yesterday, due to operations on altcoins, my position was drastically reduced, leaving only 3% of the funds. In the end, I only had $90 left, barely avoiding forced liquidation. Seeing this result, I felt worse than anyone. What’s more, I feel guilty for making my brothers, who have been following me, suffer alongside me—sharing the losses, enduring the hardship, and feeling anxious.
I’ve never been a god, just like everyone else—an ordinary person.
My biggest mistake during this time was:
Having a system in my heart but no system in my actions;
Knowing the rules in my mind but breaking them when placing orders.
If I don’t follow my own rules before acting, sooner or later, the market will retaliate against me.
My original intention was pure and firm, but as I kept going, I lost my way. I placed too much importance on money—getting panicked when losing a little, trying to hold on and add positions to recover. At the same time, I undervalued money—being reckless and ignoring risk control. My inflated mindset led me astray, completely abandoning the discipline and bottom line that trading requires, ultimately causing harm to everyone who trusted me.
I know that no matter how much I explain, it’s all pale in comparison to everyone’s losses. I never intended to erase these losses, nor do I want to make excuses or shirk responsibility. Losing is losing, making mistakes is making mistakes. I accept the consequences of these errors wholeheartedly, and I sincerely apologize to every brother: I’m sorry for causing everyone to suffer losses because of me.
As for the promises I made before, I failed to fulfill them. That’s what I feel most guilty about—I let everyone down and betrayed your trust. I will always remember this debt.
In the days ahead, I won’t make any casual promises or rush to prove anything. I will calm down completely, reset to zero, and start over. I will review my trades carefully, refine my trading system slowly, pick up the risk control I abandoned, and calm my restless, inflated mindset. I will quietly study and observe the market more, to regain the focus and caution I had when I first started trading.
No empty promises, no hollow talk—what remains will be proven through time and real actions. Whether you choose to continue accompanying me or have other plans, I understand and am grateful for every bit of trust you’ve given me. I will walk slowly, work steadily, stay true to my original intention, regain my state, and hope to gradually make up for my past mistakes.
