After six years of analysis in the crypto world, I've seen too many people rush in shouting "financial freedom" only to exit in disappointment. But I must admit, some do make real money—it's just that their strategies are completely different from what most people think.

**Type 1: The "Lazy HODLers" of Assets**

In the eyes of outsiders, these folks are "fools," but I actually think they are the clearest-headed.

They don't look at K-line charts, don't chase trends, and even during a bull market, they are too lazy to check their account balances. Their monthly salary is directly deducted, and they only buy Bitcoin and Ethereum, then immediately freeze them in cold wallets, keeping the private keys as secretive as a marriage certificate.

Their logic boils down to two points: recognizing that they can't understand short-term fluctuations, so they give up trying to predict, turning this "uncertainty" into an advantage; treating cryptocurrencies as digital gold, using dollar-cost averaging (DCA) to accumulate, and exchanging time for growth.

The most impressive example is a Shanghai programmer brother who started investing 5,000 yuan in Bitcoin monthly in 2019. During the bear market, he was mocked by colleagues as "losing everything," but after two full bull and bear cycles, his account has grown to over 7 million. He said something quite poignant: "Coding earns linear income, but HODLing earns exponential growth."

The reason these people succeed is because they have kicked the "trading" addiction. Ninety percent of losses in the crypto space come from frequent trading, but they go against the grain, using counterintuitive strategies to avoid pitfalls directly.
