In the crypto market, only a small minority can consistently profit. Conversely, those traders who frequently get liquidated and suffer continuous losses have actually stepped into similar pitfalls.



**Pure beginners are the most likely to fail**. When lucky, they might make a quick profit by blindly buying, but in the end, they lose it all—sometimes even more—due to "skill." These people generally have no concept of position management, take profits, or stop-losses, always holding full positions, and gamble with a gambler's mentality every time. When the market reverses, tears follow. Newcomers are advised to spend time on theoretical learning first and not rush into heavy positions.

**It's very difficult for small funds to turn around quickly**. Indeed, there are cases of turning a few thousand USD into a million in the crypto space, but most of these are achieved through the primary market or leveraged contracts. Relying solely on spot trading in the secondary market makes high multiples of returns hard to achieve. To pursue high returns, one must accept the risks of liquidation in contracts and projects from the primary market running away. These risks have a very low success rate.

**People with unstable mindsets are doomed to go far**. There are always those who pretend to know everything and need others to spoon-feed them guidance. Losing a small amount of money causes them to break down mentally, constantly complaining—such people are basically not destined to make money. Even when they occasionally profit, they can't hold onto it; they get anxious to take profits at rebounds and rush to cut losses during dips. Investing requires patience.

**The highest risk lies in only trading altcoins**. Players who always avoid BTC, ETH, BNB, and other top coins and only focus on altcoins are generally doomed to high risk and high losses. Bitcoin's slow growth is true, but it is stable enough; altcoins tend to rise quickly and fall sharply, often ending with exchange delistings. In this market, stable assets are the ones that can accompany you further.

The crypto market is an arena of survival of the fittest. To survive, you must continuously improve your trading system, closely follow market rhythms, and keep evolving.

Honestly, it's time to change the approach of going all-in with full positions. Forget about the overnight riches dream; you still need to stay grounded. The trap of altcoins, just jump over it and you're good. Losing your composure is pointless; that's the most crucial point. People who can't hold onto their coins truly can't make big money. Position management is really no small matter. Watching people around you get liquidated is a bit frightening. It's actually greed that harms people; it's always like this. The crypto world is just eliminating those without discipline. Steady returns are much more reliable than one-shot doubles.

Basically, it means there's no trading discipline, and you deserve to be exploited.

It's the same theory again. It's correct to say so, but how many people can actually do it? I myself was also stubborn about altcoins at first, but I was educated clearly. Looking back now, it's greed that was at play.

Honestly, going all-in with a full position is like gambling with your life. I've seen too many people get wiped out in one shot and immediately quit the scene.

Another article advising people, and while the advice is correct, those who listen still end up losing money. But the part about altcoins hits the hardest. I've seen too many people go all-in on those trash coins, hoping for a turnaround, only to be hit with exchange delisting notices and lose everything. Mindset really is the hardest part, a thousand times more difficult than technical analysis or anything else.

Basically, it's about people with a gambler's mentality who should be out. I've seen too many who go all-in and end up crying and blaming everything in the end.
