Want to establish yourself in the crypto market? Here are some key points to understand.
First, risk management is a matter of life and death. Don't put all your savings into a single coin, and avoid using borrowed money to chase highs. Even if you are optimistic about a project, leave yourself an exit strategy. Market volatility can shatter your dreams at any time; only staying alive allows you to wait for the next opportunity.
Second, mindset is more important than technology. Getting jealous when others make money or panicking and selling when K-line drops—these are common mistakes among retail investors. Either build your own trading logic or stick to regular dollar-cost averaging. Frequent trading often leads to more pitfalls than profits.
Third, it's never too late to learn. Understand the basics of blockchain, learn how to read on-chain data, and know how to identify risky projects. Don't rely blindly on a KOL's recommendations; doing your own homework is the real key.
Furthermore, control your greed. The crypto world is full of temptations, but the more promises of instant wealth, the more likely they are scams. Steady accumulation is often more sustainable than gambling-style operations.
Finally—don't go all-in. If an investment keeps you awake at night, it’s too large. Participating within your own risk tolerance is the secret to long-term survival.

That's correct, but I still need to increase my position. If I don't buy at this bottom, am I just waiting to get trapped? Risk management is important, but I've already gone all in. I can only trust my faith to hold steady and not move.

That's quite right, but very few people can actually do it. The friends around me who are all-in are still bottom-fishing now.

Basically, it's one sentence: living is more important than making money.
---
I've seen many people borrow money to chase highs, and they all end up badly.
---
When it comes to mindset, it really works better than watching hundreds of video tutorials.
---
Is the DApp attractive? I just ask if it's worth it or not.
---
I usually operate in the opposite direction of KOL-recommended coins; my success rate is actually higher.
---
If I can't sleep well, I sell. That's my ironclad rule.
---
Risk management = survival, nothing else.
---
The biggest enemy of retail investors is their own greed.
---
Check the on-chain data yourself; don't always be led by the rhythm.
---
Getting rich overnight? Ha, the traps are written all over the face.

Exactly, but 99% of people forget after reading and still go all-in on some pump-and-dump coin haha

That's true, but who doesn't know these principles? The key is that only a few can stick to them.

Risk management is well explained, but I have to say—most people can't do it at all. They start looking for a psychologist just because the K-line drops by 10%.
Technically speaking, mindset is indeed the most difficult part to quantify in trading, much harder to control than position size or stop-loss points.
An interesting observation is that the more someone loudly advocates "controlling greed," the worse they tend to perform in the next bull market. This reveals a psychological misconception.
On-chain data needs further validation; not everyone has the ability to read on-chain information. Teaching people how to find reliable tools might be more practical than teaching them to read on-chain data.
All of this is just common sense. The real secret is... finding a project that won't爆炸 and then lying flat. But this prerequisite is more difficult than the five points above.
