At three in the morning, the glow of his phone screen fell across Chen Mo’s face.
He stared at the candlestick chart. TIA’s price was in free fall. It had plunged from yesterday’s high of 0.71 to 0.53, and the chat group had already erupted. Some were shouting, “The team has abandoned the project!” Others were posting, “Goodbye, everyone,” while a few shared screenshots of their liquidations—a 500,000 USDT long position wiped out in an instant.
Chen Mo’s hands were trembling. Not because he was afraid, but because he knew he’d been waiting for this moment for a month.
He’d first noticed TIA three weeks earlier. Back then, the price had been trading sideways around 0.45. On-chain data showed that the amount staked was steadily increasing, and the development team was making commits at three times the rate of similar projects. He did his homework and wrote a 2,000-word analysis. His conclusion: the coin was seriously undervalued. But the market wasn’t buying it. TIA was like a pool of stagnant water, completely motionless.
Then, last week, a wave of good news suddenly hit. TIA shot from 0.50 to 0.71, but Chen Mo didn’t chase the rally. He knew a sharp surge like that would inevitably be followed by a pullback, and the people who’d chased it were now howling in the chat group.
0.5239.
Chen Mo saw the number. His heart skipped a beat. It was the lowest point of this correction, two cents below the support level he’d expected. Panic selling had carved out a golden buying opportunity.
He didn’t hesitate. His entire position: 20,000 USDT, bought at market price.
The moment his finger pressed the button, he felt like he was leaping into an abyss. But this time, he chose to trust his own judgment.
For the next 48 hours, he didn’t check the charts. He tossed his phone into a drawer, went downstairs for a five-kilometer run, came back and took a shower, then slept for a long time. He knew that if his analysis was right, there was no point in worrying. And if it was wrong, worrying was even more pointless.
When he finally opened his phone again, TIA was at 0.6856.
Account balance: 26,143 USDT.
A 30 percent gain might not be earth-shattering in crypto. But Chen Mo smiled. Not because of how much he’d made, but because he’d finally done something most retail investors couldn’t: be greedy when others were fearful, and stay calm when others were greedy.
Someone in the chat group asked him, “How did you dare buy during a crash?”
Chen Mo typed three words: “Do your homework.”
Then he put his phone away and went out for breakfast. The sunshine was lovely, and the autumn breeze carried a hint of chill. He knew TIA’s story wasn’t over, but for now, he just wanted to enjoy this ordinary morning.
The most valuable thing in crypto isn’t a token. It’s the ability to keep a clear head in the middle of a panic.
