#我的Gate交易时刻

I entered during the tail end of the 2021 bull market. I experienced the FTX crash in 2022, the halving in 2024, and the historic high of 126k in 2025, as well as the sharp decline in early June 2026 from 73k directly below 60k.

Looking back, there are a few things I wish I had known earlier.

First, don’t use leverage, at least not from the start. Between June 3 and June 6, over 360k people were liquidated across the market, with long positions exceeding $1.5 billion. How many of these were beginners? Probably quite a few. Leverage amplifies your emotions, not your judgment.

Second, don’t look for answers in groups. When BTC dropped to 60k in early June, half the group was shouting “zero,” and the other half was shouting “bottom fishing.” Which was right? In hindsight, both were wrong — it neither went to zero nor directly V-shaped back. The real answers are never in the groups; they’re in the data.

Third, learn to distinguish between “rebound” and “reversal.” BTC fell from 126k to 59.7k, with countless rebounds along the way. But until the US-Iran agreement on June 14, there was no true trend reversal. A trend reversal requires fundamentals — continuous ETF inflows, macro liquidity improvement, and substantial easing of geopolitical risks. Before confirming these, treat all rebounds as rebounds; don’t go all-in on a reversal.

Fourth, and most importantly: this market never lacks opportunities; what it lacks is your capital. When FTX crashed in 2022, BTC dropped to 15k, and people thought “crypto is over.” When it fell below 60k in June 2026, some said “this time is different.” But data doesn’t lie — stablecoin market cap reached a record $320 billion, the RWA tokenization market hit $28.9 billion, all at historic highs. The ecosystem is expanding, and infrastructure is improving.

A bear market is a gift for those who are prepared, not a trap for the panicked.
