Over these years in the crypto world, let me say what you least want to hear right now.
First, reveal my identity.
I haven't sold off, my position has always been there.
Joined in 2018, eight full years now. Bull markets have taken me to the sky, bear markets have brought me to the ground, I’ve blown up accounts and also turned things around.
Over these years, brothers I’ve helped include some who went from tens of thousands to a million, and others who got out halfway and later patted their own backs.
I'm not bragging when I say this; I want you to know that the following words are from an old hand who’s traded real money.
Recently, I’ve received a bunch of private messages asking me “Can I still hold now?” “Should I cut losses?”
I always reply the same: Why panic?
Bitcoin dropped from the 80k high point, it’s been months of grinding, now hovering around 70k.
The panic index has fallen below 30, everyone’s quiet, no more showing off on social media.
But what are you not seeing?
BlackRock’s ETF had a net inflow of 2 billion last week.
MicroStrategy, that crazy company, just poured another 2.5 billion USD into buying over 30k BTC.
The entire network’s hash rate is still steady at 1000 EH/s, miners are losing money on electricity but still desperately powering up.
These people aren’t fools. They just see further than you.
What are they betting on? The halving market two years from now, betting on Bitcoin hitting 500k USD one day.
And you? You’re betting on the ups and downs over three days.
That’s the difference.
So I often tell my followers:
Making money in this circle isn’t about quick reflexes, it’s about patience.
Only those who can sit still deserve to eat the biggest piece of the pie.
I’ve seen too many people, who sold out in 2018 at 3,000, then chased at 69,000 in 2021.
Every bull and bear cycle follows the same script, only the roles change —
The ones crying before are replaced, new ones keep losing money in the same way.
How to avoid it?
It’s so simple you might not believe it:
When others shout “bull market,” don’t move.
When others curse the scam and cut losses, buy in batches.
Even if it’s just 500 bucks or accumulating 0.001 Bitcoin.
After buying, turn off the software, go back to work, spend time with family.
In two years, when you look back, you’ll thank yourself for holding back today.
Finally, some real talk.
In these eight years, the brothers I’ve followed and made real money with, it’s all about choosing the right direction, accumulating slowly, waiting for the wind.
Right now, the market is panicking, but to me, it’s actually the best time to open your eyes and look for opportunities.
If you’re confused, can't hold, or don’t know how to position yourself, check out my daily market review and position strategies.
I can’t promise you overnight riches, but I can share the experience of surviving these years, bit by bit.
While others are cutting losses in panic,
smart people are picking up chips in panic.
