#数字资产动态追踪 I started with $1,200 and turned it into 300,000 over nearly a year and a half.

Talking about this process, even I find it hard to believe. But it happened.

Initially, I was a complete rookie. I would see people in the community posting screenshots of 20x, 30x leverage gains, earning thousands of dollars a day. I thought, what's so hard about that? But I got wrecked by the market, losing three days in a row, dropping from $1,200 to just $900.

That night, I sat in front of my computer all night. My hands trembled, my eyes were bloodshot, and I had no idea what I was doing. Then I suddenly understood: in the crypto world, it’s not about who’s smarter, but about who’s willing to let go of the get-rich-quick mentality first.

Starting from the rebound from $1,200, I completely changed my approach.

No longer aiming for overnight riches. Just one thought: survive.

My rule is simple: as soon as a position gains 20%, I close half immediately to lock in profits. The remaining half is either held or completely cut. Never leverage to gamble, never follow the crowd. And so, day by day, life went on.

During that period, I slept very little. Watching the charts at 2 a.m., taking profits before dawn, reflecting on what went wrong in the morning. Friends said I was crazy. I laughed at them—because in this market, the crazy ones tend to survive longer.

When my account grew from $1,200 to $18,000, many around me had already left due to liquidation or being trapped. What about them? They kept digging in. And I became more cautious: as my account grew, I took smaller and smaller positions each time. My strict rule: only ever risk 30% of the account, leaving 70% as a safety cushion.

The market never lacks opportunities. What’s missing are accounts that are still alive.

There was one particularly memorable moment.

The entire market was in extreme panic. I held a position with a very firm stop-loss, and stubbornly held for ten days. Those ten days were agonizing every second. Until one day, the market suddenly reversed, and the candlesticks kept rising— that position nearly tripled my account.

At that moment, I fully realized one thing: in trading, making big money is never about those who trade frequently. It’s about those who can "hold on" through the tough times.

Later, someone asked how I achieved such compounding growth. I said very straightforwardly: it’s about correcting your mindset, not amplifying with leverage.

Market ups and downs are normal. True experts are actually losing every day. What’s the difference? Staying calm when losing, and resisting greed when winning. These two points determine how long you can survive in the long run.

There are no gods in crypto, only rules. What I can do, anyone serious about it can do too.

The only prerequisite is—**you must truly want to survive in this market**.

If you’re currently doubting yourself due to losses, or trembling at the fluctuations of $BTC, $ETH, it’s better to pause, think clearly about what you really want. Then start over.
