A 36-year-old from Fujian, entered the crypto world in early 2017. At that time, earning 20,000 to 30,000 yuan per month, paying a down payment in first-tier cities was still a distant dream, until I got involved in the crypto market.

Initially, I just wanted to find an additional outlet for my savings, never expecting to catch that wave of market行情. High salaries are hard to come by, but trends can make money double quickly—this was my later realization.

2020 was a critical turning point. I invested most of my savings into the crypto market, with ETH as my main position, BTC as a secondary, plus some small altcoins. That year, the market experienced several corrections. While most people cut losses and exited, I kept accumulating at the lows. The crash on 5/19? That was an opportunity to get in.

I never use high leverage, never borrow money to trade, never chase high prices, only focus on行情 I understand. These disciplined principles saved me many times.

By 2021, when BTC approached a new all-time high, I judged that the cycle was nearing its end. I sold most of my holdings around 58,000, and also took profits on ETH at around 4,400. Later, it proved that those were almost the top.

When the bull market ended, my account balance was 38.51 million yuan. I took 10 million to establish a presence in Shenzhen, kept 20 million in the bank earning stable interest, and continued to participate with the remaining 8.51 million.

Over the years, I’ve summarized a few core points:

**First, capital is accumulated by myself.** Don’t borrow money or use leverage. When risks come, those who leverage often can’t withstand it.

**Second, only trade high-probability opportunities.** Keep operations minimal, signals must be clear. Frequent trading only increases costs and mistakes.

**Third, greed is the greatest enemy.** When you see a good position, act decisively. Don’t always wait for more gains.

**Fourth, profit comes from cycles.** The crypto market has clear bull and bear shifts. Grasping the big cycle is far more reliable than day trading.

Many people want to get rich quick in crypto, but those who truly succeed are often not the smartest, but those who know how to wait, dare to heavily allocate at key positions, and take profits in time. That’s what crypto is about—it's not about reaction speed, but understanding and executing on cycles.
