Seeing a group of people say that the cryptocurrency world is the only chance for losers to turn their lives around, is it really like that?

When I was in college, I sold campus cards to save up my first bucket of gold. Later, I accidentally saw an article about Bitcoin, and it felt like opening a new door. I thought I was just learning something new, but everything changed from that moment. When I registered for an exchange account for the first time, I cautiously entered my wallet address, my palms sweating. I remember very clearly that I bought 20,000 yuan worth of Bitcoin and made 10,000 in two weeks. That excitement is unforgettable to this day; I thought I had found a shortcut to wealth.

Later, I learned about contracts, but the crash in 2018 came too quickly. My account shrank by 80% overnight, and I stared at the K-line late at night, afraid to close my eyes, terrified of missing an opportunity. I saved on meals and kept recharging my account. The 90,000 yuan I earned from selling campus cards was eventually lost. During that time, I realized that in front of the market, I was like a grain of sand; the direction of the river was not something I could control.

I lay at home for more than a year and vowed never to play contracts again when I returned to the market. I really got better purely by luck. At that time, I didn't understand DeFi, but I accidentally got in touch with Uni and Sushi, buying 60,000 yuan worth. Later, I discovered the Polkadot ecosystem but didn't have money to buy, so I opened contracts. Due to my small position, I kept adding to my position with floating profits, with floating profits exceeding 400,000 U. Then came May 19, and the market dropped 20%, causing me to liquidate my previous Sushi and Uni holdings to replenish my position. At 8:13 PM, the market crashed, and the exchange didn't give me a chance to replenish my position.

This decision gave me an opportunity to turn around after the market in July. Later, to avoid trading coins, I played the chain game Axie Infinity (AXS), only investing a small amount in land worth 100 U. I bought 18 pieces, earning about 80 U daily. Later, I was brainwashed into buying AXS with my entire position at 3.8, and then I started slowly selling at 110.

Of course, this is not the only reason for making money. After AXS became popular, my land income increased daily, reaching as high as 9,400 U in one day. The land price soared to 76,000 U, and I bought various tokens for chain games, with tenfold returns continually appearing, and my account reached new highs every day like a digital number. Later, the bubble in the gaming world grew large, and the land price dropped to 24,000 U, with daily income left at a few hundred. I sold everything, and subsequently, I lost quite a bit, but it didn't affect the fact that I had already jumped several tiers!

My story reflects that trends, opportunities, and luck outweigh effort. I had money for the first time walking in society, feeling invincible. Now, after some time, I'm much better and more low-key.
