There are always people DMing me: I only have tens of thousands of yuan, can I make a million in this space?

To be honest, my answer has never changed—yes, but it’s really not easy. You need to figure out which approach suits you and, more importantly, how much pressure you can handle. $MDT

After years of wandering in this space, I’ve seen too many people get rich overnight and lose it all just as quickly. After repeated observation, I’ve summarized the paths into three types:

**The First: The Slow and Steady Way**
Save up 100,000 to 200,000 yuan. Don’t all-in on a single coin. Put most of it into big names like Bitcoin and Ethereum, and use a small portion to try potential projects and platform tokens. Then—regardless of ups or downs—add to your positions regularly and hold for 3 to 5 years. If you make it through a full bull and bear cycle, you’re likely to hit the million mark. Sounds simple, right? The problem is 90% of people can’t do it. Can you resist chasing pumps when others are making 10x in the bull market? Can you avoid panic selling after repeated crashes in the bear market? Mastering your own psychology is harder than any technical skill.

**The Second: The Hardcore Technical Route**
Airdrop farming, hunting whitelists, participating in new launches. This route is truly competitive—you need to know scripting, batch operations, watch Discord announcements late at night, and be faster than the bots. The time and effort required is massive, and you might not even get results. If you don’t have a programming background, information sources, or the grit to go all in, I advise you to stay away from this track.

**The Third: The High-Risk Gamble of Luck + Judgment**
At the very start of a bull market, bet on a coin that can 10x or more. You need to understand project narratives, gauge hype, identify backing resources, and avoid well-packaged scams. This approach is all about vision and decisiveness. Some achieve financial freedom with one right choice, and others lose everything with one mistake.

Of course, there are even more aggressive options—like launching your own token. But that requires more than just luck; it needs systematic knowledge and the ability to integrate resources. If you don’t play it well, you’ll crash and burn.

So you see, there are indeed ways to make a million, but the key question is: can you handle the process? In this space, numbers are never the barrier—cognition and mindset are the real ceiling.
