Had an in-depth conversation late into the night today with several traders from different cities. Some had been liquidated three times, some put their mortgage into altcoins—now they’re all making stable profits.

Hearing these stories suddenly made me think of myself—who hasn’t been battered and bruised in the crypto world? That despair of watching your account go to zero, the helplessness of being jolted awake by a liquidation alert at 3 a.m.

But the real turning point isn’t about technique—it’s the choices you make the moment you get back up.

Admitting mistakes isn’t shameful; what matters is not letting losses define you. Adjust your strategy, control your position sizes, learn to respect the market—these things may sound cliché, but everyone who truly does them has bounced back.

To friends still stuck in the mud: there are always opportunities in the market, but you have to survive first.

Liquidated three times and still able to make steady profits—it really shows it's all about mentality. Paying a mortgage with shitcoins? This guy is truly bold, I don't have the guts for that. Getting a liquidation text at 3AM... that feeling... I never want to go through that again. The key is still to survive. As long as you're alive, there's always a chance for a comeback. Adjusting strategy and controlling position size—sounds simple but is so hard to do. I'm still figuring it out. This round of sharing really hits home. Who hasn't been taught a lesson by the crypto world?

That guy who put his mortgage into altcoins must still feel scared when he thinks about it... But honestly, this is the real story of the crypto world. I totally get that part about getting a liquidation alert at 3 AM and not being able to fall back asleep. Seriously, staying alive is the most important thing, everything else is negotiable. The turning point comes in just a moment—if you make the right choice, you can take off instantly. Everyone I've met in these deep conversations is a real badass.

Pushing mortgage funds into altcoins and hoping to recover? This guy must have nerves of steel, I’m speechless. --- You’re absolutely right, you just have to stay alive—once you’re gone, nothing else matters. --- That part about getting a liquidation text at 3 a.m. really hit me. Damn, that feeling is unreal. --- The real watershed is in your choices—makes sense, but what most people actually lack is real ruthlessness. --- Those who make steady profits are always quiet; the ones shouting about profits have already blown up their accounts. --- It takes tens of thousands in tuition fees to truly understand what it means to respect the market. --- Anyone who really made a comeback wouldn’t be posting articles like this—they’d be busy counting their money. --- Surviving in the mud is more important than anything else—that’s the honest truth. --- Can skills really save you? In the end, it’s still about your mindset and luck. --- Is it possible that the reason they’re making steady profits now is just because the market’s good, not because they’ve gotten smarter?

Can you really make a comeback after getting liquidated three times? I believe it, but only if you’ve truly changed your mindset—not just bragging... --- Still making a profit with a mortgage and holding sh*tcoins? This guy must have some serious endurance. I don’t have the guts for that. --- That feeling of being jolted awake by a liquidation alert at 3 a.m... yeah, I’d rather not experience that again. --- Sounds nice, but in reality, only a few actually survive—most just accept their losses and move on. --- I’ve been hearing about “controlling your position size” for three years now, but I haven’t seen many people actually do it. --- Isn’t this just survivor bias? The ones who didn’t make a comeback are already at the bottom—no one listens to them. --- Respect the market, yeah, yeah, but first you have to survive the initial waves before you even have the right to talk about respect. --- I agree with “just stay alive first.” The rest is just hindsight wisdom.

Three liquidations and still able to bounce back? This guy’s mentality is insane. I get scared after just one liquidation, haha. Putting a mortgage into shitcoins... is this a true warrior or just plain crazy? That liquidation text at 3 a.m.—I’ll never forget how that feels. The key is to stay alive. As long as you’re alive, there’s a chance to recover. Honestly, most people are taken out by their first loss. Mindset is truly valuable.
