How do you roll 1 million principal into 42 million? Honestly, it’s not about luck.
When I first got into the game, I only had 100,000 in my pocket. Now, looking at my account, more than 40 million just sits there quietly. Don’t be jealous just yet—the stumbles I’ve taken on this road are enough to fill a book.
I still remember the year LUNA crashed. Both an old player and I got stuck badly, lost so much we wanted to smash our computers. He told me at the time: “Hang in there, don’t panic, the market will always pay you back what it owes.” I still remember that. In crypto, your real opponent isn’t the chart—it’s your own mind. Greed makes you chase the highs, fear makes you sell at a loss. In a bull market, everyone’s an analyst, but after two days of drops, they all disappear. Eight or nine out of ten who lose money blow up emotionally.
My method is simple, but it really works.
**When to enter?** Don’t just rush in when things are rising. Entering when the market is quiet is the most stable. Testing the waters with a small position is way smarter than going all in.
**What if the market is flat?** If it grinds at the bottom for a long time, it’s usually accumulation—you can slowly add. If it stays flat at the top for too long, it’s probably about to dump.
**How to handle ups and downs?** Chasing the pump means you’re the bag holder. A big drop is actually an opportunity—provided you look at support levels, not just buy blindly.
**Buy the red, sell the green** This move goes against human nature. When you see red you want to run, see green and you want to buy in, but pros usually do the opposite.
**Timing** Buy when the market drops in the morning, sell when it rises in the afternoon. This mid- to short-term trick has saved me more than once.
The real skill isn’t staring at the screen and overtrading—it’s knowing when to act and when to hold back. Now, just a glance at the volume and chart patterns, and I can basically judge the direction. That’s all paid for with money and time.
Too scared to get in when it’s rising, too scared to add when it’s dropping; can’t let go when you’re up, can’t cut losses when you’re down—if you don’t fix these habits, you’ll never keep what you make.
The market is always changing, but the ones who laugh at the end are those who can stay steady, tough it out, and aren’t afraid to run when they should.

It sounds very inspiring, but what I care about most is: out of these over 40 million, how much is actually unrealized profit? How many people who survived the LUNA year actually managed to turn things around?

Sounds nice, but in reality, you just got lucky a few times during bull markets. Now you make up stories whenever you feel like it, but in fact, you’ve probably been stuck at the top for a long time.

It sounds inspiring, but to be honest, I’ve heard too many stories about turning 100,000 into 40 million. I was around during that LUNA wave too, but I was one of those who got wiped out completely. This guy isn’t wrong—the hardest part really is the mindset. But the problem is, most people simply can’t hang on long enough for the market to pay them back. What I can’t figure out is, why do I always have no money to invest whenever the market is in a downturn?

Sounds good, but I lost everything during that LUNA crash. Now I get anxious whenever I look at anything, and it's really hard not to FOMO.

That's right, emotional management is definitely key. I also learned my lesson during the LUNA incident. Now I've become much more indifferent about it—just waiting quietly for the right opportunity to make big money.
