From a Conveyor Belt to Buying a House and a Car: A Rural Person’s 7 Years in Crypto


I’m Zeg.

Back when I was running business in the blazing summer, I worked myself to death for months just to make a few thousand yuan a month. Now I sit in front of a computer, watch the charts, bought a house in the city, and drive a car.

Many people think this kind of thing is far from them. But honestly, I came from a very ordinary background—born in the countryside, with no connections and no resources. When I was a kid, even a decent road wasn’t there.

I’ve worked as a waiter, and I’ve been on a conveyor line. Making around 4,000 to 5,000 yuan a month—dirty, exhausting, and with no end in sight. In the hardest times, I had no savings and was still in debt.

During that period, I often wondered: Is my whole life just going to be like this?

Later, I accidentally got exposed to the crypto world. I scraped together a few months of wages and tried getting in to take a look.

At first, I knew nothing. When people shouted trade calls, I would rush in—going all-in chasing pumps and selling into dumps. The result was simple: I got liquidated three days out of every five, and my money disappeared fast.

Back then, I really wanted to give up. But then I thought: No matter how bad it is, it can’t be worse than working a job.

So I did something many people are unwilling to do—stop and learn. Study K-lines, train chart-reading instincts, and learn to control my emotions. I slowly changed out my gambler-like behavior, turning myself into a trader with rhythm.

Over these years, the market has been good at times and bad at times, but my account has kept moving upward.

Many people ask: Was it just good luck riding the bull market?

No.

What changed me wasn’t any particular market cycle—it was my mindset. I stopped thinking about getting rich overnight. I started having a strategy and discipline, and I only made the profits I should make.

In real life, turning things around is hard. A few thousand yuan in wages, supporting a family and paying a mortgage—saving money is difficult. But crypto really did give ordinary people a chance.

All the pitfalls I stepped into and the tuition I paid over the years—I summarized them into a single rhythm. In my day-to-day work, I bring friends who came up from the grassroots to do reviews together.

I’ve always said one thing:
Entering the crypto world isn’t betting your life—it’s flipping your fortunes.

If you’re also ordinary, and you don’t want to work forever—

Follow Zeg. I’ll help you learn this rhythm.
