Honestly, the crypto world is so dramatic. I've been holding onto these altcoins for so long, and just before they took off, I ended up cutting my losses. I kept holding onto coins in other positions without moving, but the one I shouldn't have touched, I sold. Life is so unpredictable—picking out the only one that could rise from a bunch of trash and bottoming out.

I invested 30,000 yuan into the market, bought in at around $500, and it soared to a peak of $700,000. Compared to... it's a bit ironic. Sometimes the market is just punishing those who overthink. I didn't hold on when I should have, and I moved when I shouldn't have. This wave of market action taught me what "one thought is heaven, one thought is hell" really means.

Oh my god, this luck of mine, seriously unbelievable Handshake, I also got in before the surge, lessons learned the hard way But honestly, this is just the gambler's mentality; having a shattered mindset is even more painful than losing money Cutting into paradise coins, that's truly incredible. Next time you buy trash coins, better do some fortune-telling first Wait, 700,000? You're not just cutting into your funds, you're cutting into your life, brother Be more rational, with 700,000 you should cash out, but you insist on playing psychological games This is called greed; taking the good and ignoring the bad, you should sit quietly and meditate Reverse indicator, you are my reverse indicator; you sell, I buy Actually, it’s time to recognize that the winners in the crypto world are always those who don’t watch the charts

Haha, this is the crypto world, the result of decision paralysis --- 700,000 dollars just like that drifted away, I’m fucking speechless --- The least likely to move is the first to move, is this really a contrarian indicator? --- I agree with the argument that overthinking is a problem, but more often it’s just pure bad luck --- The coin that was sold has now gone up again? Stop talking, I’ve been through that kind of torment too --- Starting from 30,000 to 700,000, then turning back to zero, the big scam of the crypto world --- One moment it’s heaven, the next it’s hell—no joke, cutting losses at that moment is hell --- The ones you can’t hold are always the most potential, this law needs legislation --- You’ll overthink again in the next market cycle, can’t change that --- The coin you managed to buy at the bottom for 700,000 dollars, but ended up selling it in a panic, unbelievable

Haha, this is the crypto world. You can always find the most painful points to poke at. I've heard too many stories of going from 30,000 to 700,000 and back to 0. The key is whether you remember that number. Whether you held or not is truly crucial, just like losing your entire account for the sake of earning that last 1%.

tbh this is why emotional trading wrecks most people... you had the mathematical probability on your side and just... didn't hold the position. that's not market punishment, that's just poor implementation of your own strategy.

This is the fate of the crypto world: the more you try to make money, the harder it becomes to actually earn.

theoretically speaking, this is just recursive state collapse in real-time... you literally had the zk-proof of profit but exited the rollup before finality. the irony? if we map this to cross-chain bridging mechanics, you disconnected right before interoperability settled. that's not trading, that's just poor state verification 🎭

Haha, this is the crypto world. The more I think about it, the more I lose money. --- 700,000 slipping through my fingers, hilarious. I guess I have this kind of temperament. --- Basically, it's just being reckless. You can always find the worst button to press. --- Betting 30,000 for 700,000 and still selling before the peak—that's impressive. --- Overthinking really is a terminal illness. The crypto world just treats that. --- I also want to try selling in a panic before takeoff to see how it feels. --- One thought leads to heaven, another to hell. Well written. I am just the spokesperson for hell. --- From your description, I can tell your mindset has already collapsed. Haha. --- The most ridiculous thing is that I still remember the price of 500 dollars clearly. A bit social anxious. --- It's really easy to get wrecked on trash coins. Just for fun.

This is the crypto world; choosing is harder than working hard.
