#美联储重启降息步伐 How many people have you actually seen turn their fortunes around in this market?

Don’t be fooled by those get-rich-quick legends. The vast majority of people enter the market with the exact same script in mind: buy into some altcoin at a low price, wait for it to skyrocket a hundredfold, then exit gracefully.

What’s the truth?
They chase the latest hype, buy in, and the price immediately starts to drop; unable to hold on, they sell at a loss, then turn around and chase a new hotspot; at the end of the bull market, they go all-in with leverage, only to end up liquidated and deep in debt—this is the real trajectory for 99% of retail investors.

Where’s the problem? It all comes down to three words: can’t wait.

Coins that actually multiply in value usually require you to research the project a year or two in advance, slowly building a position when no one’s paying attention. But how many people have that kind of discipline? Most only jump in when they see the price chart soaring.

What’s even worse is that when prices are going up, greed kicks in and people always think they can wait a bit longer; when prices crash, they cling to false hope and refuse to cut losses. Just look at LUNA—a once star project with a market cap in the billions, and it collapsed in an instant, wiping out countless investors.

The people who truly make money in this market are never the ones shouting, “This is about to take off.” They’re quietly researching fundamentals during crashes, buying in batches when things are quiet, and letting time and patience do the work.

If you can’t hold onto winners and can’t stomach the losers, this market is nothing but a meat grinder that magnifies human weaknesses.

Want to survive? First, learn not to chase trends. Then, learn to control your impulses. Short-term gains are about luck; long-term success is about understanding.
