Yesterday, I saw a newbie crying in the group, saying he had been trading cryptocurrencies for three years and lost 200,000 yuan. I checked his Moments and uncovered the truth.

This guy posts only five-minute candlestick screenshots every day. When it rises by two points, he’s ecstatic; when it drops by three points, he starts blaming the whales. It’s been like this for three years.

Suddenly, I understood. The real trap for the poor in the crypto world isn’t lack of skills or bad luck.

It’s perspective.

While you’re staring at minute charts, others are studying industry trends. While you’re calculating how much U you made today, they’re planning next year’s track. While you’re complaining about whales harvesting retail investors, they’ve already become those whales.

This is the gap in information processing levels.

With the same news, you see the rise and fall; experts see a change in the pattern. With the same project, you care about how many times it can multiply; experts care about what it can change.

What’s the most heartbreaking? You think you’re working hard, watching the market for over ten hours a day. But in the eyes of true experts, that effort is just busywork.

They check their holdings once a month and earn more than you do in a year.

Because perspective determines how many opportunities you can see and how much you’re willing to invest for those opportunities.

People with a narrow outlook are always fighting over sesame seeds. People with a broad outlook directly lease the sesame fields.

That’s why, in the crypto world, those who truly make big money are never the ones shouting signals every day. It’s those who seem very Zen but have actually seen through the game rules long ago.
