Many people come to me for a chat and ask: "Is there a quick way to double my money? I have 100,000 yuan and want to quickly reach one million."



It sounds very tempting. Hit the right move, and the dream of financial freedom is realized. But I’ve seen too many people like this—before making money, they mess up their own rhythm.

**The problem is never a lack of opportunities; it’s your impatience.**

Rushing to double your investment, chasing hot trends, trying to prove your foresight to others. And then? Either you get dizzy from market fluctuations or you keep cutting losses at the wrong times. The market’s best at tormenting people like this.

Actually, it’s not that complicated. Turn 100,000 into 200,000, then 200,000 into 400,000—step by step, moving upward. Several relatively stable increases add up to a substantial gain. The process may not be exciting, but it’s reassuring and helps you sleep well.

**Why do I always prefer spot trading?**

Not because it’s more aggressive, but because the risks are easier to control. If you choose good assets, time can help you ride out the volatility. You don’t need to watch the market 24/7, nor rely on luck to survive.

There are two key principles:

First, don’t be led by short-term surges; choose projects that can sustain long-term growth. Second, extend your time horizon—don’t expect to solve everything in a week or two.

I’ve observed many accounts that truly make money—none of them rely on a sudden surge to turn things around. They accumulate slowly at low levels, hold steady during rises, and don’t panic. When prices fall, they don’t act recklessly. Whether the market rises or falls, it’s no longer that important to them.

**A sense of rhythm is the soul of trading.**

Someone asked me how to allocate funds among BTC, mainstream coins, and small-cap tokens. The real answer is in your own heart. Risk tolerance varies, financial situations differ, and so do time and energy. How can there be a one-size-fits-all answer?

True experts don’t find some secret; they find a rhythm that suits themselves. Some people earning 10 million a month end up losing everything, while others earning 3,000 a month can steadily accumulate wealth. What’s the difference? Mindset and self-discipline.

Greed is the most common illness in the crypto market. Having too many coins in one account, fuzzy logic in holdings, chasing gains and cutting losses daily. The final result? After all the hustle, they realize it’s better to do nothing.

My advice is simple: choose 3-5 directions you truly understand, invest regularly, act when it’s time to act, hold when it’s time to hold. Don’t study the market every day; the more you study, the more you act, and the more mistakes you make. Set a threshold—add to your position when it drops to a certain level, reduce when it rises to a certain point—and then stick to the plan.

The path from 100,000 to 1 million is really a test of patience and discipline. Whoever can resist temptation and persist with the power of compound interest will win.

That's correct, but the reality is that 99% of people can't do it, including myself last time.

That's so right, it's all about mindset. I used to be so anxious that I ended up losing even more. Now being able to sleep well is worth more than anything. Once you see through it, going all-in is just going all-in; stable compound interest is the real key. People who watch the market every day often earn the least, there's no doubt about that. This is my current approach: hold onto 3 coins and don't mess around. Many people simply can't understand the power of time and still hope to get rich overnight. Greed, indeed, is the terminal illness of the crypto world. I've seen too many examples like that. As I always say, rhythm is more important than choice; most people get stuck right there.

To be honest, I've heard this argument many times, but few actually manage to do it. Everyone around me is eager to double their money, but in the end, they're all cutting losses at the bottom.

Really speaking, those who are constantly cut are just not maintaining the right mindset. --- Compound interest sounds simple, but actually doing it is very difficult. Most people still want to take a gamble. --- I just like this kind of simple advice, much more reliable than those who boast about getting rich quickly. --- The problem is everyone wants to take shortcuts, and few can really endure those boring periods of accumulation. --- Discipline—these two words are easy to say but hard to do. --- Some people just lack this mindset and insist on constantly watching the market and messing around with themselves. --- Going from 100,000 to a million may seem far away, but it really tests whether you can hold on and stay calm.

There's nothing wrong with that, but too many people just can't listen. They have to hit a wall on the "quick doubling" path before they'll change. The power of compound interest isn't that fancy, but truly persistent people are few and far between.

That's quite true, but too many people die on the word "urgency." I've seen those with just a little money in hand, thinking about getting rich overnight every day, and in the end, ten thousand turns into five thousand. Compound interest really isn't complicated; it's boring as hell but just effective. However, the reality is that when it really drops by 30%, most people will still panic and cut their losses. Armchair strategizing is the easiest.

It's the same old spiel, not wrong but how many can really do it [bitter smile] One day of successful self-brainwashing, remember this: as long as your mindset and discipline are in place, the bottom zone is an opportunity, and faith will help us through cycles Every time I think I've understood, the market comes and I forget everything. I know this feeling too well Honestly, it's not that there are few opportunities, but that human weaknesses are too many. Greed is indeed the biggest enemy, and I am working on fixing this issue Going from 100,000 to a million is not that simple; it takes experiencing many rebirths, but this is probably the process of value reversion Studying the market every day actually results in more losses. I deeply understand this. Sometimes, doing nothing is the best trade

说得太对了,急就是原罪。看过太多十万想一周变百万的,最后怎样了心知肚明 复利这东西真的,比什么都狠,就是太考验人性 这节奏感确实是玄学,有些人天生适合,有些人再怎么学也悟不出来 现货玩得好真的能睡个好觉,比天天看盘心梗强多了 关键还是要找到自己的那套逻辑,别总想着别人赚的那一波
