When I first entered the market, I also daydreamed about it, thinking that throwing some money in could make me rich overnight. But what happened? The market repeatedly taught me with bloody losses: there are no shortcuts here, only reverence.

Over the past few years in the crypto world, I've experienced all kinds of feelings. I've made over a million and lost over a million, started projects, and ridden countless emotional roller coasters. But today I want to share not some secret to making money, but three life-saving rules bought with real money.

I have a young friend who, last March, entered with $5,000, and within half a year, it grew to $40,000. Now he's steadily holding $100,000. The key is, he never stepped into any traps or touched those garbage projects that look too good to be true. He didn't rely on insider tips; it's purely because of these three mental principles.

**First Trick: The Three-Position Method — Staying Alive Is the Hard Truth**

The crypto market is so volatile, don’t think about getting rich quickly. First, think about how to survive. I divide my money into three parts, each with its own purpose:

Thirty percent for short-term trial and error. Chase hot spots with small positions, take profits of 3-5%, then withdraw. Treat this money as tuition; even if you lose it, you won't die. This way, you can feel the market pulse without hurting yourself.

Another thirty percent for mid-term positioning. Pick those truly promising mainstream coins and ride the main upward waves. But the core principle is only one: invest only in projects whose business logic you can clearly explain, don’t invest blindly.
