Hold your hand, guard your heart, and taking it slow can make you money.

I've been in the crypto circle for eight years, seeing too many people get rich overnight and then quickly lose everything. There's an interesting phenomenon: those "smart people" who go all out chasing hot topics and trade daily often suffer heavy losses; on the other hand, some investors with simple strategies who stick to their guns end up earning the most.

A senior once told me: "This circle is full of sheep following the trend. If you can control your emotions, you hold the ATM." With this simple idea, he turned 100,000 into 42 million. Over the years, I’ve also verified that a "foolproof money-making method" really works best, and today I want to discuss it.

**First Rule: Don't pick up mosquito meat, protect your principal**

Surviving in the crypto market is the top priority. How many treat this place like a casino, watching small fluctuations every day, getting excited over a few points of profit? And in the end? They make ten small profits, then a sudden crash wipes it all out, sometimes even losing multiple times their investment.

I remember very clearly, in October 2025, during that market wave, Bitcoin's daily total contract liquidation exceeded $19 billion in a single day, with 1.64 million accounts being liquidated. This was the worst single-day record in crypto history. Almost all leveraged traders were wiped out.

The true winners understand one thing: principal is the oxygen for your market activity. Without it, even the best opportunities are meaningless to you. My strict rule is: even if I see the market wrong, I won't make trades that threaten my principal. Set a stop-loss limit and stick to it—this is the prerequisite for survival.
