Someone asked me if I have any real examples of making money. Alright, today let’s skip the theory and go straight to the screenshots.



The account’s total value is 45,000, and today it made a profit of over 700. The main position is in DOGE. The numbers aren’t exactly spectacular.

But there are some things behind this worth talking about.

I have a friend, Xiao Hao. Not long ago, the market tossed him around pretty badly. One day he came to me, exhaustion all over his face, and asked, “Bro, I only have this much principal left. What should I do next?”

I told him, “Don’t think about doubling your money right now. Think about how not to lose more. Once your mind is stable, your hands won’t shake.”

For his first trade, I had him buy in batches, and told him never to go all-in at once. During a mid-session dip, he panicked several times and wanted to sell everything and exit. I stopped him: “Stick to the original plan.” That trade not only made back his losses, but more importantly, he regained his feel for trading.

Some time later, the market had a panic drop. I told him, “See if this is an opportunity.” He followed through, and his assets climbed up another notch.

There was another time when a coin suddenly spiked, and everyone in the group was shouting “buy, buy, buy!” I watched the market for a while, felt something was off, and told him, “Get out.” He did. Not long after, that coin really crashed.

After a few rounds like this, his account slowly climbed back from the lowest point to where it is now. No miracles—just the consistent execution of simple rules.

So what I want to say is, real strength isn’t your account number skyrocketing, but whether you can control yourself.

Getting your mindset back on track after chaos, fixing a battered account—this is harder than anything, and more effective than anything.

The ones who survive in crypto are often those who’ve taken the hits, felt the pain, and then learned how to wait and execute.

That's why most people lose money; once their mindset collapses, everything is gone.

It's quite heartfelt; controlling your mindset is really harder than anything else.

Looking at these 45,000 accounts earning 700 a day, honestly, it's not as exaggerated as I imagined... but that story about Xiao Hao really hit home. Mindset is truly a hundred times more important than skills.

To put it simply, it's a mindset issue. I've known this for a long time, but I just can't do it.

Simply put, mindset management is the real skill. You don't have to go all-in every time; those who can survive until the next bull market will make a killing.

Absolutely right, mindset is the real Achilles' heel. I used to be the same way—panicking whenever the price dropped, couldn't keep my fingers still. Later I realized that controlling your desires is more valuable than anything else.

This is the real reason people survive in the crypto world: it's either good luck or a strong mindset.
