#数字资产市场洞察 I still remember that voice call, and thinking about it now still makes my heart race.
An old fan called, his voice trembling: "I took my friend's advice and borrowed 100,000 U to invest in a small coin. At first, it was rising rapidly, and I really thought I was going to turn things around... but then, in the middle of the night, it crashed directly, $XRP wiped out in a second. Luckily, I woke up to check on it and shorted it, and in the end, I barely saved 3,000 U."
He continued to tremble as he said: "My wife has no idea... I'm afraid she won't be able to handle this blow."
To be honest, I usually hate hearing stories about borrowing money to gamble. But this time is different—this guy is either not greedy or completely confused by the market; he is in despair.
I told him: "You have a strong fate, 3000U is just the seed. Don't think about making a comeback yet, staying alive is the most important."
For more than half a year after that, he really calmed down. Since then, he hasn't acted recklessly again—every time he bottom-fished, he strictly controlled his position, decisively cut losses when $BNB fell, and no longer let emotions follow the fluctuations of the K-line. He operated step by step, not only repaying his debts but also eventually boosting his account to over 100,000 U.
In the cryptocurrency world, what can eliminate you is never just technical skill. Eight or nine out of ten people who get liquidated are not incapable of trading, but their mindset has already exploded—borrowing money to trade, going all-in, or being driven by emotions to place orders, any one of these pitfalls can be fatal.
If you are also stuck in a losing slump right now, don't force yourself to hold on. Finding the right direction, executing the right strategy, and following the right people is the only way to survive in this market.

Mindset is truly the most important; how many people have perished because of this.

This guy is too ruthless, borrowing 100,000 U and going all in on small coins and still being alive, I need to learn this mindset.

Indeed, this guy can turn 3000U into over 100,000, simply because he understands one thing — people in the crypto world die because of their mindset, not because of technology. The moment you borrow money to go all in, you have already lost.

Indeed, mindset is crucial. When I saw him climb back from 3000U, I believed it; the crypto world is really not about technology.

Indeed, mindset is truly the Achilles' heel. I have people around me who have borrowed to go all in and got liquidated, and in the end, they didn't even dare to admit defeat to their families. It feels like the crypto world is just playing a psychological game; technical analysis and all that are just illusions, the key is whether you can hold on.

Indeed, the mindset is the line between life and death. I used to be the kind of person who went Full Position and All in; thinking about it now still gives me chills.
