Legend of the 土狗币
At 3:17 a.m., Lin Yuan stared at his phone screen, his finger hovering above the Buy button—he hesitated and never pressed it.
MUBARAK’s price was going wild. Ten minutes ago it was still wobbling around $0.061, but now it suddenly surged to $0.068. Messages in the group were flying by. Someone shouted “Go for it,” someone posted screenshots showing a double, and another sent a rocket emoji and said, “This is just the beginning.”
Lin Yuan was a programmer working on backend development at a company in Shenzhen. Three months ago, he heard coworkers talking about crypto. He opened an account on Binance, deposited twenty thousand yuan, and started small. At first he only dared buy BTC. After it rose five percent he was delighted.
Later he realized that a five-percent gain was basically a joke in the meme-coin world.
His first meme coin buy was PEPE: he put in five hundred yuan, sold when it was up thirty percent, and made himself enough for a hot pot meal. The second time was BONK. He hesitated for half a day before finally not jumping in. The next day it had tripled.
After that, he swore that the next time he saw an opportunity, he would never hesitate.
And tonight was that “next time.”
In the group, MUBARAK had been discussed for a whole day. Some said it was a Middle East concept coin—there was a narrative and plenty of hype. Lin Yuan checked the chart and found it had been consolidating around $0.06 for almost a week. The trading volume had been quietly building all along. He remembered that all the technical analysis he’d studied pointed to the same conclusion: the longer a range-bound period lasts, the more explosive the breakout.
He took a deep breath and used all the remaining eight thousand yuan in his account to buy.
The moment the trade executed, his heartbeat was pounding like a drum. Within one minute after he bought, the price climbed another two cents. He immediately regretted not adding leverage—but then he felt glad he hadn’t.
The next six hours were the longest wait of his life. He went to work, and every five minutes he would sneak a glance at his phone. MUBARAK rose from 0.07 to 0.075, then charged from 0.075 up to 0.079. His unrealized profit was already over twenty-five percent.
Soon people in the group started shouting, “Target: one cent!” Lin Yuan’s palms were soaked with sweat.
At 2 p.m., MUBARAK surged to a high of 0.07924. Lin Yuan stared at that number, and his mind flashed through a hundred thoughts. Should he sell or not? What if it kept rising after he sold? What if he didn’t sell and it dropped back?
He thought about the BONK he’d missed. He remembered all those regrets from telling himself “Wait a bit longer.”
He hit Sell.
Executed price: 0.0785. Eight thousand yuan turned into twenty-one thousand.
He leaned back in his chair and let out a long breath. Sunlight streamed in from the window, and for a moment the world seemed unbelievably bright.
Later, MUBARAK fell back to around 0.072. Lin Yuan didn’t regret it. He knew that in this market, those who can take profits and leave—had already won over most people.
He opened his notes and wrote a new line under “Trading Discipline”: If it’s there, sell—never be greedy.
Then he turned off his phone and went downstairs to buy a cup of coffee. Today’s coffee tasted especially good.
