To be honest, achieving an 8x return over the past few years is less about trading skills and more about having a clear understanding of oneself. Frankly, I simply can't compete with traders who chase the latest trends and trade frequently.
Compare the two approaches to trading, and you'll understand. One group spends all day showing off gains in communities, staying up late monitoring the market, chasing highs and selling lows, busy as can be. The other group (like me) spends most of their time watching dramas, playing games, and only clicks on trading software a few times a week.
My trading logic is actually extremely simple, to the point that some might think it's unreliable: select a few solid fundamental crypto assets, set reasonable buy-in price ranges, and then wait patiently. That's it.
Last year, I built a position in a certain coin at the bottom range, successfully accumulating at 0.35, and then it entered a prolonged sideways trend for 8 months. During this period, I watched other coins take turns rising, with people in the group showing off profits every day, and some laughing at me for "slacking off in investing." But the surge in March this year pushed the price to 3.2. I took profits in stages and ultimately achieved a 20x return. Most of my friends who are busy chasing highs and lows are still struggling to break even.
Now, I have another coin in my holdings that has been sideways at the bottom for nearly half a year. Trading volume has shrunk to the limit, and the market structure looks full of signals—at times like this, it often only takes one spark to ignite a rally.
As for which coin it is, I really can't reveal too much here. Once too many people know about a good opportunity, its value diminishes.
If you're tired of watching the market every day and frequently losing money, why not try a different approach: sometimes, slow is fast in the crypto market. Instead of competing with those "clever guys" who trade more frequently, focus your energy on selecting quality assets and managing your mindset. Choosing the right direction and being able to sit through the cold periods will naturally open opportunities. If you're planning to participate in the next wave of the market, now is the time to lay out your positions.

Sitting on the bench really makes money, I believe...
Wait, there's no denying it, the lazy investment method is indeed awesome.
Alright, I'll also change my bad habit of staring at the charts every day.
Damn, 20x, that's just too outrageous.
Honestly, most people fail because their hands are too fast.
I heard this logic back in 2021, didn't believe it at the time... now I regret it.
Slow is fast, this statement really hits home.
But what exactly is that coin? Can you give a small window reveal?
People who chase every hot trend all day are just leeks, totally right.
There's some truth to it, but how to solve the problem of selecting coins? Most of my picks end up hitting the mines.
Being in a sideways market for 8 months really tests your mentality, I already cut my losses and ran.

Being able to sit on the cold bench is really a skill; my friends who call out trades every day have long been numb.

Wow, I really have to admit, this logic... "Slow is Fast" really hit me right in the heart.

Yeah, that's true. I also only make money because I can sit still.
Slow is fast—this saying is so right. Those who chase the trend every day are just providing liquidity for the big players.
0.35 to 3.2, sister, that's the price of patience. I'm also waiting for my sideways-moving asset to take off.
The key is to recognize your own strength and not set your sights too high.
