I just realized something quite interesting when participating in this crypto market. Newcomers often get caught up in situations that the sages call the five poisons of the mind. If you can't overcome these, it's hard to survive long when the market starts to rise.
First is greed. People fear missing the peak, so they cling to everything and chase after anything without a plan. Then there's anger. When facing failure, people tend to get angry, curse analysts, and panic sell. That is a major mistake in the early and middle stages of a bull market.
Ignorance is also a big problem. Many follow the crowd without learning or understanding what they are buying. Arrogance is similar, looking down on others, thinking they are smarter than the market.
But what is doubt? It is precisely suspicion and indecisiveness. You don't know whether to hold on or sell, always wavering between the two intentions. This is very dangerous because when you lack clear determination, even small news can make you change your decision. As a result, you sell at the bottom and buy at the top.
I see that successful people in crypto are not necessarily the smartest, but those who have learned to overcome these five poisons. They have a plan, are persistent, and do not let emotions influence their decisions. That is the biggest lesson the market has taught me.
