Many people ask me how to grow from a small capital. To be honest, turning 3000U into 300,000U is not some black technology; the key is whether you're willing to follow the plan step by step.



My biggest insight is this: small capital is not the real issue; the problem lies in your discipline. Random actions are the dead end.

I divide this process into two clear stages. As long as the direction is correct, everything can gradually be realized.

**Stage One: Survive first, strengthen the principal (1 to 3 months)**

During this period, don’t overthink—just three ironclad rules:

Follow trending coins, enter quickly and exit quickly. The market rotates so frequently, opportunities are abundant, missing one isn’t a big deal.

Strictly enforce stop-loss. If you judge incorrectly, admit it immediately. Don’t try to make up for losses; that’s the start of losing money.

Take profits when available and roll over your operations. Don’t be greedy in one position; a fragile mindset is the easiest to break.

The only goal in this stage: not to dream of getting rich overnight, but to earn steadily with the money you have, laying a foundation for future operations.

Once your funds exceed 5000U, the rhythm must change. Short-term, nibble at volatility; mid-term, wait for the trend. Only when a real trend emerges will you dare to hold longer.

**Stage Two: Shift from fighting to compound interest (1 to 4 years)**

When your funds reach the 100,000U level, the entire approach must change dramatically.

At this point, it’s not about who trades the most, but who can keep quiet. Don’t make unnecessary moves, don’t miss the truly big opportunities—that’s the mindset of a winner.

My fund allocation is as follows:

50% follow the main trend—this is the backbone.

30% bottom-fishing, long-term holding—this provides psychological security.

20% flexible, to dip into opportunities or chase hot trends—this adds variety to life.

**To put it plainly, that’s how it is.**

Many people get stuck at the starting phase, not because the market is bad. It’s because they always want shortcuts, always want to skip the process. But the market is like this: opportunities are always rotating. Going from 3000U to 30万U is never a myth. It’s just that most people can’t wait or can’t persist.

This path is slow but certain. If you truly want to walk steadily, the next wave of opportunity is already on its way.

Honestly, discipline really hit home. I used to operate recklessly, chasing hot topics every day, and ended up losing big. It's better to call it compound interest, but frankly, you still have to be patient. I'm now using a 50/30/20 allocation; the first two months were really tough, but now my mindset is much more stable. The key is the stop-loss part. I used to hold on stubbornly, and as a result, I got liquidated in one go. Learned my lesson. It's really a test of human nature—who can resist, who will win. Wait, how long did it take you to go from 3k to 30w? Be clear. But hearing you say that, it seems the most vulnerable stage is the initial phase. I'm still struggling and learning in the first stage. Shutting up is truly a winner's mindset. I've seen so many project teams arguing, but those quietly making money are earning steadily in silence.

It has been proven that discipline is the biggest technical barrier, more effective than any trading strategy. Talking without practice is just pretending; the key is whether you dare to truly execute stop-losses. The logic behind capital allocation is indeed clear; the 50/30/20 ratio is worth testing. Most people crash because they can't resist that 20% of flexible funds, resulting in a complete collapse. Wait, isn't this a kind of compound interest mechanism design? It’s somewhat similar to cross-chain liquidity management ideas. Going from 3,000 to 300,000 sounds simple, but the biggest attack vector is the psychological defense line.

Theoretically, it sounds quite right, but in actual operation, that 20% of flexible funds always mysteriously turns into 50%...

Discipline is really the hardest; most people fail because of greed, not because of market conditions.

That's right, it's all about mindset and discipline. I never believe in the idea of doubling your investment in three months; that's all nonsense.
