Many people ask me when they first enter the crypto world: how can 3,000 yuan turn into 1 million? To be honest, I used to ponder this every day in the early days. But I have to be frank with you—don't expect to "earn ten points daily and slowly double through compound interest." That approach simply doesn't work. Playing like that, trying to make millions in the crypto space, is more difficult than reaching the sky.
The crypto market is not a bank savings product. Turning a small principal around has never been about slow and steady compound interest; it's about catching major trends, entering and exiting quickly, and seizing those critical moments of sharp price volatility. Want to make money? You need to learn to follow the cycle. Essentially, the crypto market is a battleground for global funds. Everyone is fighting for this piece of the pie, and you must learn to ride the wave of big trends to profit.
Why do most people start losing money after playing for a while? It all boils down to a few common problems: impatience—entering before understanding the market logic; restlessness—going all-in at every opportunity; holding on to losses and refusing to cut; narrow vision—focusing only on small fluctuations and making reckless moves.
How do true experts operate? They always focus on the big cycle. They look at the daily, weekly, or even monthly charts. By analyzing these larger timeframes, they filter out market noise and accurately seize real opportunities. Those minute-level K-line fluctuations? To them, they are just distractions to avoid. Looking at Bitcoin’s history: at $3,000, daily swings are just a few tens of dollars; at $10,000, swings are around $200; at $30,000, a single fluctuation can be $1,000. But here’s the key—if your account can only handle $300 swings, but you’re gambling on a $2,500 move, that’s not investing—it's just giving money to the exchange.
So, the problem isn’t that you’re not working hard enough; it’s that you’re looking in the wrong direction. Market cycles are the foundation of your profits. Learn to control risk, don’t dream of doubling overnight; focus more on long-term layouts, and less on short-term volatility. Let the market’s big waves carry you forward, rather than crushing you. That’s the correct way to steadily profit in the crypto space.

That's right, I used to be that kind of fool who couldn't resist going all-in at once, and ended up losing terribly. Now I understand that small cycles are just big pits.

Basically, don't play short-term trading; that's a suicidal move.

Basically, it's a mindset issue. Those who watch the minute chart every day will eventually suffer losses.
---
The dream of compound interest, just listen to it, anyone who believes it is foolish.
---
It's really about waiting for the right opportunity, not waiting for interest.
---
Friends who go all-in with full positions, why haven't you made any money?
---
The big cycle is the way out; everything else is just giving away money.
---
3000 yuan to a million? Dream on, buddy.
---
Only those who look at the monthly chart can survive a bull-bear cycle.
---
For those itching to go all-in, I haven't seen anyone make money that way.
---
Risk management is really more important than anything else, but unfortunately, no one listens.
---
Following the cycle is easier said than done; most people simply can't do it.

Oh no, isn't this my blood, sweat, and tears story? The time I went all-in on margin trading really cost the exchange a lot of money...
Staring at the minute chart every day, you're not far from liquidation. I have deep experience with this.
That's right, the key is to hit the right cycle; otherwise, all your efforts are in vain.
3000 yuan to a million? I gave up on that dream long ago. Now, just being able to stay stable without losing money is a blessing.
I agree that "cycle is king," it's a hundred times better than watching the market every day.
Anyway, my current strategy is to look at the big chart, and treat all other K-line fluctuations as air.
Only after losing money do you realize, it's not that you're not ruthless enough, but that choosing the wrong direction truly has no hope.

That's right, if small investors want to turn things around, they need to hit the right rhythm; otherwise, they're just giving away money.

That's right, I've seen through this scheme a long time ago. Small retail investors are just washed out by short-term trading; when you can't see the bigger cycle, it's really time to reflect on yourself.

Honestly, trying to turn 3000 into a million is probably not worth it. This approach is unreliable.
