Since the beginning of 2025, many people in the crypto circle have tasted the sweetness of this wave of market行情. Personally, I did have good gains earlier on, but in the last two months, I experienced a reversal—the profits that had come back were mostly wiped out. Many people have probably gone through this rollercoaster feeling. At the start of the year, everyone was full of joy, but the successive pullbacks caught many off guard. It seems that everyone's 2025 experience in the crypto world varies—some got in early and enjoyed the entire market rally, while others only reacted at high levels. The ups and downs of this market test both mentality and risk management skills.

Haha, you're so right. I also had an amazing early stage, but in the last few months, I just kept losing blood rapidly. This is the crypto world—profits come quickly, and losses come just as fast. Managing your mindset is really much harder than technical analysis. Human nature is just greed. When prices go up, you want to go all in; when they fall, you panic and cut losses, cycling back and forth. It's really just because people don't set proper take-profit and stop-loss levels. Greed harms everyone. But to be fair, everyone wants to gamble and reach the moon, but most end up being left behind halfway up the mountain. Making money in the morning is indeed satisfying, but I admire those who can walk away completely unscathed—those are the true winners' mindset.

I'm just a high-level bagholder, taking a huge loss.

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills. The crypto world is even more so, brother.

Really, I knew it was over the moment I bought in at a high point.

honestly, the fact that you're conflating "profit realization" with actual market returns is taxonomically incorrect... per my analysis, what you're describing is just standard deviation playing out exactly as the math predicted. let me pull up my spreadsheet real quick—pretty sure this fits the evolutionary dead-end pattern we see in retail portfolios every cycle.

Really, this wave of the market is just testing who can survive until the end. I've already said not to be greedy, but some people still want to go all in after making a profit. Once the mentality collapses, there's no hope. I looked around the groups, and people are either cutting losses or holding on to their positions. The key is to know when to step back and take a breather. The start of 2025 indeed offered opportunities, but it also created illusions, do you understand? There's nothing much to say. Just remember to have a better memory next time; that's how the crypto world is.

This is the crypto world—profits come quickly, and losses come just as fast. Overindulged in gains, it's time to review the lessons. The first two months were indeed enjoyable, but that last wave was really a waste. Honestly, it's still about not maintaining the right mindset—greed took over. Should have taken profits early, but insisted on holding until it hit your hands.
