#数字资产市场动态 Same amount of 100,000 yuan, some people safely earn two million, while others lose everything in three days — this is not a matter of luck, but strategy.

The experiences of these two guys around me can clearly illustrate this. Da Wei never touches contracts, is dead set on spot trading, focusing only on Bitcoin and Ethereum, buying low and selling high. With a capital of 50,000 yuan, he turned it into two million over three years. He honestly says: "Spot trading is exhausting, but it won't make you go all-in."

Xiao Jun is completely the opposite. He’s very skilled with contracts, starting with tenfold leverage, and when the market moves, his daily gains can rival what others earn in a year. I watched him jump from $3,000 to $200,000, and his excitement was like hitting the lottery. But in just three days, his account was wiped out, everything lost. He later told me something quite sobering: "Contracts are like playing with fire — making money is exhilarating, but once out of control, it’s a disaster."

These two stories actually illustrate two different paths. The spot trading route is long and steady, suitable for impatient people who can endure and tolerate risk; the contract route is a roller coaster — it requires a strong heart and high tolerance for risk, with quick gains and quick losses.

How do experienced traders operate? Not choosing one over the other, but mixing them. Use spot trading as a foundation for stability, then when the market moves, open small positions to trade contracts and catch the wave. This way, you have a safety net and don’t miss opportunities.

Ultimately, the choice depends on one question: can you accept your account being wiped out? If you’re psychologically prepared, you can play with contracts; if not, stick to accumulating coins and doing spot trading.
