For friends who are just entering the market, I’ll share only three pieces of advice. Each one is a lesson paid for in real money.

**First: This market is about cycles, not miracles**

The money you make essentially comes from emotional swings, not some “forever up” magic. $ETH can go up 30% in a week and give back 40% in three days. Sometimes, $BNB ’s price movements are completely illogical.

So, learn to survive first: don’t go all-in, don’t bet everything at once, always leave yourself an out. Enter with your funds in batches—never stake everything on a single judgment. If you can make it to the next cycle, you’ve already outperformed most people.

**Second: If you don’t understand a project, just pass**

What’s the most common pitfall for beginners? “Such-and-such coin can go up a hundred times”
