I have always been a conservative investor, with the main Position in BTC and ETH. It wasn't until my fren showed me the profit screenshot of his early investment in Gate Alpha that I started to seriously research this innovative section.

Key points of mindset shift:
Strict project screening: The quality of projects on Gate Alpha is significantly higher than the 'Innovation Zone' on other platforms.
Well-established risk control mechanism: Although the project is in its early stages, the platform provides very comprehensive trading protection and warning systems.
Small-scale trial strategy: Decided to first invest with 500USDT.
My learning process:
Step 1: Choose a new project with a smaller market value and observe the changes in trading volume in the first three days before listing
Step 2: Study the project white paper, focusing on the team background and actual product progress
Step 3: Set a strict stop-loss point (usually 70% of the purchase price)
Real case: bought in at 0.15USDT with a stop loss set at 0.105USDT on the second day of Redbrick's launch. The price surged to a high of 0.25USDT and eventually took profit at 0.18USDT. Although the peak was missed, the investment of 300USDT turned into 360USDT, and a 20% return has already satisfied me.
Experience summary: Gate Alpha is suitable for investors who are willing to spend time researching projects. The key is to control Position, manage risks well, and treat this place as a practical base for learning Web3 investments.
