Crypto Market Survival Rules: Avoid Traps, Protect Assets

In the ups and downs of the crypto market, experience is the most valuable teacher. By summarizing past mistakes and lessons, we can establish a set of survival rules to help ourselves remain undefeated in this high-risk environment. Here are some proven suggestions aimed at helping investors reduce risks and avoid common pitfalls.

1. Treat popular events with caution.

For highly anticipated blockchain projects or events, do not rush to be among the first participants. History shows that early participants often suffer losses. A wise approach is to patiently wait until market sentiment stabilizes, then weigh the risks against the rewards.

2. Stay away from perpetual contracts

Perpetual contracts are tools for professional investors, and ordinary investors are best advised to stay away from them. High-leverage trading is extremely dangerous and can result in funds being rapidly wiped out. Unless you are an experienced large trader, do not venture into this field.

3. Stay vigilant

In this "Wild West of finance", caution is a virtue. Do not easily trust others, even those who seem friendly. Maintain a skeptical attitude and assume that everyone may be eyeing your assets.

4. Maintain a rational attitude towards the founders.

Do not blindly worship project founders. There have been too many cases in history where founders have disappointed investors. Maintain an objective attitude and do not regard them as heroes or idols.

5. Question suspicious behavior

If you find the behavior of the project team suspicious, do not hesitate to raise your concerns immediately. Encourage others to pay attention to these issues until a reasonable explanation is obtained. Protecting your own interests is the top priority.

6. Avoid locking up

Locking tokens for a long time is a common mistake. This not only increases the risk of hacking but may also lead the project team to take actions that are unfavorable to investors. It is important to maintain the liquidity of assets.

7. Carefully choose your partners.

In the crypto market, the credibility of some individuals is highly questionable. Extra caution is needed for projects that these individuals are involved in. Conduct thorough due diligence and understand the personnel behind the projects.

8. Do not chase high prices

Do not chase assets that have already skyrocketed in price. While it may occasionally succeed, the risks far outweigh the rewards. Stay rational and wait for the right entry opportunity.

9. Focus on market capitalization rather than unit price.

When evaluating a project, one should look at the market capitalization rather than the unit price. Many people mistakenly believe that low-priced tokens have more room for appreciation, but in fact, one should consider the reasonableness of the overall market capitalization.

10. Timely profit-taking

If your investment returns have already improved your quality of life, don't hesitate to appropriately cash out a portion. Don't let greed cause you to miss the opportunity to change your life.

11. Be cautious when connecting new applications

Be especially cautious when using new blockchain applications. It is best to test with a small amount of funds first, and then use your main funds once you confirm safety.

12. Be skeptical of the "super cycle"

Don't blindly believe the claim that the market will always rise. Stay rational and be prepared to deal with various market environments.

13. Don't give up in a bear market

A bear market is a great time to accumulate knowledge and experience. Don't give up because of the market downturn; instead, you should prepare for the next bull market.

14. Avoid mysterious themed projects

Token projects related to mysticism often carry higher risks. Regardless of whether you believe in these concepts, you should approach such investments with caution.

15. Stick to your principles.

Last but not least: Stick to your investment principles. Although it's not easy to achieve this completely, making an effort to adhere to these principles will help you stay clear-headed and humble in the crypto market.

These rules are not absolute, but they can help you better protect your assets in this market full of opportunities and risks. Remember, in the world of encryption, knowledge is power, and caution is a virtue.

Thinking of that large investor who had a perpetual blowup last week, the on-chain data makes my scalp tingle.

The scythe is always waiting for those suckers who are blinded by fear of missing out (FOMO).
