#美国贸易赤字状况 From dreamer to debtor, a blockchain trade can bankrupt a person in just 72 hours!
My brother Xiao Jun was working at a bubble tea shop last year, and this year he dares to boast in the group: What’s a bear market? I want to make a fortune!
Things got out of control. With only 1500 yuan in pocket, he used 20x leverage to short, and in two days his account skyrocketed to 40,000. Excited beyond words, he sent me a screenshot: I will never do this kind of job again!
Skyrocketing profits come like lightning—fast to gain, fast to lose.
Xiao Jun rented a gaming hotel room, set up three screens, and told himself that if he could make ten times more, he’d wash his hands of it.
But on the first night, $BTC shot up with a big bullish candle, breaking through his position. 40,000 instantly turned into 38,000. His eyes turned red, all reason gone, he frantically added more money to his account: "My luck just hasn’t come yet!"
The following days were surreal. Maxed out his credit card, borrowed from Jiebei, even his fiancée’s wedding dress savings were all gambled away. Every trade was precisely cut off by the market makers.
He didn’t cry, just muttered to the ceiling: "Give me five more minutes, I can reverse the trend!"
We forcibly dragged him out of the hotel. This guy was so thin he could use his collarbones as bottle openers.
Whenever the market fluctuated, he came back to life. Used a takeout box as an ashtray, kept a power bank nearby at all times, and even wore headphones to sleep, listening for liquidation alerts. His girlfriend finally couldn’t take it anymore and broke up with him. He didn’t even lift his head, just said: "Don’t block the camera, can’t see the trend clearly!"
Last week, the hospital called. Xiao Jun had a stomach perforation, curled up in front of his computer, clutching his phone’s order screen tightly in his right hand.
I helped him into the hospital car, and he mumbled drowsily: "Bro... just let me try one more time..."
I slapped him: "The market won’t give you a second chance!"
Now he’s back at the bubble tea shop, paid daily wages. His hands tremble whenever he’s idle.
I asked him: "Still want to open positions?"
He shook his head, pointing to his head: "I dare not anymore. That leverage sound, I just can’t get rid of it."
Those who truly make money in the crypto world and walk away unscathed are always the ones who dare to act but also know when to stop.

Xiao Jun, this story is really damn well written, but to be honest, this is just the same drama played out every day in the crypto world, just with different names.

Damn, this is the power of leverage. Overnight, it's back to the pre-liberation era... Little Jun, this guy really plays it a bit too far. I just want to ask, is there anyone still daring to go all-in like this?

Finished reading, I really can't hold it together... This guy Xiao Jun is the living opposite of an example. Getting addicted to 20x leverage, he forcibly turned himself from a dreamer into a bankrupt, even daring to go all-in on his girlfriend's wedding dress money. How ruthless is that? In the end, with a stomach perforation, he still thought of a counterattack. His mentality is completely off the charts. The crypto world is like this: you make money fast, but you lose just as quickly. One big bullish candle can shatter all your illusions. Those who truly survive know when to stop. Someone like Xiao Jun... forget it, now I work at a milk tea shop paid daily, and I start trembling when I have free time. The cost is just too high.

Damn, that's why I never touch leverage, even in death. It just hurts to look at.
