Before entering the crypto world, ask yourself one question—are you truly ready?

It seems like opportunities are everywhere, but in reality, there are many traps. The story of 100x coins sounds tempting, but behind it is often a carefully orchestrated zeroing scheme. Those "gurus" who boast about making you rich quick—ultimately, you'll realize you're the one being exploited. Contract trading is an even higher risk game; a single mistake can lead to liquidation, and statistics show that the occurrence rate of such events is alarmingly high.

Want to survive longer in the wave of Bitcoin liquidity and tokenization? The simplest advice is: protect your principal. It may not sound as glamorous, but honestly, those who can do this have already surpassed most participants. Don’t be blinded by short-term gains; steady and cautious is the right approach for long-term success.

Protecting principal? It's easy to say but hard to do. I already know several "zero-return heroes" around me. Only when the dream of getting rich quickly shatters do you realize that those "gurus" are not gods, just scalpers. When a contract gets liquidated, there's really no way to prevent it... I've seen too many accounts wiped out in seconds. Those who can survive and walk out of the crypto world are the ones who are willing to let go of greed. The temptation of short-term gains is insignificant compared to the risk of liquidation... not worth mentioning. Actually, it's just two words—patience. It's harder than anything else.

Protecting principal sounds easy, but few actually do it... I am the representative of those who got chopped up like leeks. Wait, why does this feel like it's discouraging us from entering the market? I've dreamed of a hundredfold coin, experienced a margin call, and now just want to stay calm and relax. Those top experts have already cashed out and run, while we're still here studying K-lines. The harshest realization is the moment you find out you're just someone else's ATM.

I told you, before entering the crypto world, you really need to take a moment to stay calm. Don't be brainwashed by stories of hundredfold coins; nine out of ten are just schemes to trap retail investors. Protecting your principal is the truth, but everyone understands it, yet it's hard to actually do—human nature is like that. I've seen too many contract liquidations; overnight dreams shattered are nothing new. This wave of market enthusiasm is high, but there are more traps. Being cautious is never wrong.

Well said, but most people simply can't listen. After hearing so many stories of overnight riches, who still wants to earn a steady 5%? The idea of protecting principal has been said before, but there are still people hitting liquidation every day. The dream of 100x coins, how beautiful must it be to get so hooked on it? Those buddies who promise to make you rich quickly, first ask yourself if you're actually working for them. Contract trading? I think it's contract "exchange." But to be fair, the ones who truly make money seem never to boast.

That's the principle: once you enter the crypto world, it's as deep as the sea. Principal is the key.

It all sounds right, but who can truly protect their principal? The number is few. --- A hundredfold coin dream is still best to do less; focus on surviving and making money first. --- There's nothing wrong with that statement, but the problem is no one listens haha. --- Protecting the principal is really the hardest lesson, much harder than finding a hundredfold coin. --- Here they go again, everyone wants to be steady and cautious, but can't resist temptation. --- It's easy to say, but only when you act do you realize how difficult it is. --- Only after being liquidated do you understand what this article is talking about. --- The part about contract liquidation really hit home, a blood and tears story. --- In the end, it still depends on self-discipline; there are no special formulas.

After all these years, it's still the same—protecting the principal is how most people win... But the so-called "gurus" you've mentioned, I've seen quite a few, and they can really talk people into it.
