A man who trades crypto all day—how can he return to normal life? Honestly, it’s hard.


I have a friend who started out just messing around with futures. He put in 1,500 as principal and, in two days, turned it into 40k. Back then he thought he was the “Buffett” of crypto—making money was just too easy.
Later, though, because of over-concentrating, all-ins, and stubbornly holding through the grind, the 40k went back down to a few hundred. But he was already hooked.
He stares at the charts every day, doesn’t eat or sleep. He says, “I don’t play futures—only contract dogs do,” but the moment there’s an opportunity, he charges in harder than anyone.
Futures, plain and simple, are fast. With dozens of times leverage turned on, if you bet right on a single move in the market, your funds shoot up. It’s faster than trading stocks, more stimulating than gambling, and when you make money it’s big—but when you lose, it hits hard too.
Stocks might drop or rise by up to 10% in a day. In crypto, moves of 100% up or down in a day aren’t rare at all.
And once you’ve tasted the sweetness, your mind only has one thought: I can flip it back.
But in reality, most people don’t wait for a comeback—they get wiped out by the market first.
That’s also why, once you start playing futures, it’s really hard to turn back.
It’s not because of greed—it’s because it’s too fast, too exhilarating, too much like a dream.
—A dream is too beautiful, and the price is too high.
