To be strong in body, Climb mountains and bask in the sun every day! Climbing to this point, I saw a big tree, So I embraced it, Slowly feeling its energy, People, ghosts, grass, and wood are all friends, This can also be considered my first embrace of the New Year! In trading, I have always advocated: Trade in life, Live in trading. I trade while climbing mountains, And climb mountains while trading. In 2026, It officially started with embracing the big tree. Today is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Also the day to embrace the God of Wealth. From probability and other analyses, This year's God of Wealth to be cautious of is the Ethereum-based altcoins! So, This year I choose to wholeheartedly embrace: Embrace the big tree, Embrace the Ethereum altcoins, Embrace the God of Wealth! Continuing to climb mountains, I hope we meet at the peak!#ETHETFsApproved
【This Month's Operation Guide】 This month's operation guide, which is the 【Next Month's Operation Guide】 from last month, this thing called a big pie, since 15443 came up, this is also my first time raising a risk warning! This month's operation guide mentioned last month, now it's just, reiterating, re-analyzing, this month, whether the big pie rebounds, surges to a new high, or declines → all should reduce positions! Analyzing from the 《True Yin True Yang Trading Theory》, this month has a high probability of rebound, if there's no rebound, then the market might not have action for several months. (The world is wonderful, the future is also full of uncertainty, the above is just a personal opinion, focusing on the present, focusing on recording, not as a basis for anyone's operation)!#币安Launchpool上线KITE
In a few years, when we look back, why did we ever have to relentlessly chase after things, wandering and searching endlessly? It turns out the opportunities for making money have always been right here beside us! We see them every day yet turn a blind eye. We always overthink, question too much, so we can’t see ourselves clearly, or the present clearly either— and as a result, we lose the courage to take action, and we lose the patience to persist!$ETH $UNI $XRP
“Elon Musk’s Starship Didn’t Get Struck by Lightning” Ever since a loved one was diagnosed with depression, as I studied psychology, I’ve grown increasingly convinced that “hope” is, for a person, almost as important as life itself. The most priceless thing in life is hope. When someone loses hope, they lose the future—and may even choose to end their life at any time. Facing $SPCX stock price with a recent steady decline, bearish voices are everywhere in the market, and many people mock Musk: “He’s going to crash again.” But just as his Starship stands firm in the storm, SpaceX’s journey has never been brought down by “lightning.” Currently, SpaceX’s main businesses include reusable rocket launches, a strong profit powerhouse in Starlink satellite internet, and high-potential AI ventures (xAI and X). In 2025, revenue reached $18.7 billion. Although the company is overall loss-making due to heavy reinvestment in AI and Starship, Starlink has become a stable cash cow—continuously funding the dream of reaching beyond Earth. The current valuation carries a growth premium, yet it also reflects humanity’s grand narrative of moving from Earth toward a multi-planet civilization. Consider spcx as another anchor in your life. It’s not only an investment target, but also a symbol of belief: holding steady amid doubt and volatility, born for hope, fighting for the future. Musk’s Starship is still accelerating—an era for believers will surely arrive! In daily life, I always cheer myself on and applaud others, because I understand this: hope is a person’s heart lamp. I can’t—and will never—extinguish someone else’s heart lamp. Come on! Cheer for myself! Cheer for Musk! I’m officially buying you today! No matter whether you ultimately succeed or fail, as an ordinary person, I also want to take part in this great human experiment!
How to judge a good investment "target" (anchor)? The simplest and most straightforward method: Its price is always making new all-time highs! Otherwise, it isn’t a good target! So, gold, $BTC $BNB $ETH , and so on—these are all good investment targets (the anchors I’m talking about)!
“Most ordinary people aren’t suited to be bosses; they’re better off building assets.” I’m speaking from the perspective of a small business owner. Let me say two things: most ordinary people really shouldn’t think about becoming a boss and doing business. Being a boss looks glamorous, but in reality you’re humble, worn out, and exhausted to the point of death. Every day you have to worry about rent, water and electricity, inventory, employees’ wages, customer complaints, and all kinds of competition and unexpected risks. One wrong step and you could lose so much that you end up with nothing left—even your last pair of underwear is gone. And many young small business owners worry so hard they get gray hair. Their hair turns white even faster than their fathers’.
We ordinary people don’t have much money in our hands, and we don’t have any backing. We don’t have a professional team either. The hard-earned money we make by working our tails off is mostly “money earned by selling time.” Even if you fall asleep at night, you don’t earn a single cent.
It’s better to be honest and build assets instead! Hoard assets!
△ What exactly is an asset?
It’s something that can make you money even when you’re lying down or sleeping. [For example, invest in “anchors” “$ETH /$BNB ...,” or something you believe is reliable, or create content and knowledge products that can be sold continuously, or set up some equity and rent it out—things like that.]
Once your assets are built (at first it may be a bit hard, but the farther you go, the easier it gets—eventually you don’t even need to work), they generate money on their own. You don’t have to keep staring at everything every day.
Ordinary people’s energy is limited. Instead of working like a slave, tiring yourself to death as a small-time boss, it’s better to steadily save some money, use your free time to learn and improve your mindset, exchange experiences with professionals, and slowly build your own assets.
Working for wages or running a small business can only support you for a while. Only assets can make you wealthy for life—maybe even for generations.
In today’s society, where everyone is competing and overworking, ordinary people really shouldn’t dreamlessly just go chasing the idea of being a boss. Turn around and build assets instead. Hoard assets $XRP ..., because it’s one of the most feasible and practical ways out for ordinary people!

True strength lies in the ability to remain clear-headed and aware under pressure. Comparison stems from self-acknowledgment that is vague and unclear. Once you truly recognize yourself, you no longer need others as a measure. When self-awareness is blurry, validation fills the gap in self-confidence; thus, external approval seems indispensable. Silence removes outside distractions, and in that space, lingering thoughts have nowhere to hide. Facing silence requires honesty. What truth challenges is our attachment. Pain does not come from truth itself, but from the collapse of illusions. What coercion brings is only temporary compliance, not real change. As your cognition improves, it will naturally lead to transformation.
“Chasing short-term win rates is meaningless.” Why do ordinary people always end up losing badly in the end? “Countless small wins in everyday life, and then a huge loss on the last one.” You’re done. The win rate is absurdly high—but does such a high win rate matter? It means nothing! If we observe this world, we can look at it one way forward—why not look at it backwards, or even in the opposite direction? Take the phrase above “always end up with a huge loss in the end,” and do the opposite: in ordinary times, countless small losses—then a final, big win! Doesn’t that sound better?!” I’ve walked through countless big defeats. Now, if anyone tells me they have a 100% win rate or a high win rate, I’ve never listened, never watched, and never cared. At most, out of politeness, I’ll superficially agree: “Wow! You’re so amazing!” That’s it. Also, the world’s most powerful traders have a win rate of only about 50%. What truly differentiates experts is position management, psychological discipline, and asymmetric returns (big wins, small losses)—not trying to be correct every time with a check mark. If you’re determined to take this path of trading, the focus should be on cultivating your mind and character: practicing risk control, restraining your own greed and fear, and making yourself more patient—so that a restless heart slowly settles down—rather than simply increasing a win rate that doesn’t have much real meaning.

【The right path for most people’s investing is...】 Whether it’s quantitative trading or discretionary trading, money can be made quickly. Besides the market’s direction and the underlying assets, it’s mostly because you’re over-allocating! Behind over-allocation lies people’s greed, a lack of patience, and human nature! Human nature needs to change—there’s work to be done, refining oneself—through countless trials in the market... This process is also too heavy for ordinary people to bear! So, practice like this, refine like this, only then might it bring about even a slight change. Therefore, the road of trading isn’t suitable for most people. △ For most people, the right path in investing is to pick the right underlying asset (the anchor), invest regularly for the long term, hold for the long term, and operate on large cycles and high-level timeframes! Don’t learn to trade! Don’t do short-term trading! Don’t play with futures contracts!
【Everyone’s mature, fixed trading system is, in a broad sense, a “quantitative” one】 After leaving Guangzhou, my younger brother saw me off. I said four things to him: ① You’re now the little God of Wealth. Maybe many people don’t realize it. My trip to Guangzhou is to meet the God of Wealth! ② Once you’ve chosen quantification, you don’t need to meddle with it manually! In a broad sense, any fixed personal trading-technology system is quantification. ③ I’ll keep tracking this 30,000-dollar gold account. If I lose 30%, I’ll bring someone along to Guangzhou to meet you! ④ Just… My younger brother is also named Xiao Zhang. He’s from Henan. His childhood friend’s cousin—someone who’s basically a relative—was in Guangzhou. After graduating from a certain university in Guangzhou, he embarked on this road that has no return. He has been groping, rising and falling, ever since, dedicating himself to quantitative trading for more than ten years. I’ve seen countless nights where he wrote code, continuously refining his system, running hands-on experiments in the market using his own money—until he was buried under debt without ever giving up. Instead, he became even more determined. That’s one of the reasons I was genuinely happy when I met him. Our personalities are somewhat similar: setbacks only make us more奋进, more driven! And I’d say he’s also someone I share interests with. From the Sea Demon System to what he has today—“Simplified/Traditional Price Investing” (Jianfan Jiaotou)—for more than ten years he’s always been on the road. Now, his Simplified/Traditional Price Investing is far better than the Quantization company I used to work for, Keh Neng Quantification. Through the few days I spent in Guangzhou, I learned that Keh Neng Quantification is nowhere near as good. Beyond its quant design and the stop-loss/fusing mechanism, Simplified/Traditional Price Investing also absorbs the Yin-Yang arbitrage techniques from something like the “True Yin, True Yang Trading Techniques.” That’s also one of the reasons I give it a high evaluation. Making money, after all! It’s nothing more than: you make money yourself, or someone helps you make money—either a group helps you make money, or money helps you make money! Next time I come to Guangzhou, I’ll most likely invest in Xiao Zhang. Investing in Xiao Zhang isn’t just because I’m optimistic about him—it’s also because I’m investing in myself. I believe in myself! Besides, I’ll do my own thing, as long as I control the risks, with one more person helping me earn money, isn’t that fantastic? How joyful!
At this moment, you’re not yet 17. You’re giving a report at Beihang University’s School of Economics and Management, and your dad is very happy. From now on, you’ll be a proper “regular soldier.” Your dad is a backwoods fighter—someone who fought his way up from the ground level through hardship and practice. Today I’m in a good mood, so I came to make a record. You’ll be able to see it later. We could be said to be “fellow travelers,” too—everything we do is connected to economics and finance. I hope that when you grow up, you’ll look back at every one of my little essays and every comment you’ve left on my articles, and you won’t miss any. You’ll not only learn some knowledge—you’ll also find your dad’s real gold and silver. (Maybe there won’t be much; maybe it’ll be enough for you to spend—it depends on the market prices at that time.)
When you start searching, your dad might not be alive anymore. Then treat this as one more treasure-hunt game between you and me!
Now let me also talk about the event you reported. Your dad knows a little about it—what’s told in the “Kidde Peabody Bank trading loss” incident is the story of the Kidde Peabody Bank losing a huge amount of money on trades.
Those traders got carried away, thinking they could turn the whole world upside down, so they played with high leverage and gambled on the market—throwing risk control out the window. In the end, they lost so badly their underwear was almost gone! The bank was heartbroken over the money, and investors suffered too...
In plain terms, it comes down to one truth: there’s no such thing as a free lunch in the world. If you want to get rich overnight, you’ll often end up back to square one, overnight. Your dad has done this countless times—money isn’t made this way! Greed, impulsiveness, and not leaving yourself a fallback—sooner or later you’ll eat a huge loss.
DaBao, remember: whether you’re trading stocks or doing trades of any kind, you’ve got to have a bit more sense. Don’t just listen to rumors as if they were the truth—listen carefully to what the market has to say. Don’t treat the bank’s blood-and-tears lessons as just stories.
Control your desires! What’s behind desire? And how do you control desire? Controlling desire is also the key that opens the door to wealth!
And you’ve got to manage your own money too—take smaller steps, see the risks clearly, and move steadily. Keep investing, keep building bigger at a higher level—that’s the right path.
Try not to be speculative. Speculation is temporary; it’s short-lived. Investment, on the other hand—people who do investing tend to live longer. Your dad hopes you’ll live a long life~
It’s late at night. I’ll write a bit anyway—I’m also getting ready to rest...
It’s late at night. I want to say something to my trading friend: “△ Some money can only make you lose it yourself; some money can only make you earn it yourself!” When you understand what I mean, you must have gone through a lot! No one understands you. I do. No one thanks you—I thank you for your kindness. But put away your kindness. You’ve worked hard.!
【A Cruel Truth】: In the past two or three years, I followed a dozen or so people on Douyin. Turns out they were either bosses or big bosses. Later, they went bankrupt—they all fell down. Without exception, none of them has gotten back up! Most likely, for the majority of people, in their lifetime they won’t be able to climb back up.
The logic is simple: back when the market was expanding for 30 years, it was incremental growth. Now it’s a zero-sum contest over existing market share. Back then, if you fell, you could just switch to another track and easily climb back up. Now, if you want to switch to a new track, you haven’t even picked up your blade—then they take you out first.
Of course, God won’t let someone be completely without hope. He’ll give you → a window to keep open, or a crack, (or a patch of sky): This window is an emerging industry. This crack is the gap between one industry and another. …
Right now, the way for people who’ve fallen to break the deadlock is to go looking → for what you believe is a new industry, go looking → for the gap between industries. …
Find development in a new industry! Survive in the gaps between industries! …

【The simplest way for ordinary people to change their fate】 (The prerequisite for the simplest way for ordinary people to change their fate is to improve your cognition! After that, only then comes the content below!) There are two major methods for ordinary people to change their fate: Start a business and invest! In today’s society of intense competition and involution: The simplest way for ordinary people to change their fate is, of course, investing—not starting a business! When ordinary people hear “investing,” they think it’s something sophisticated, something only rich people play, or else it’s a scam! In reality, investing doesn’t require much money. Once your cognition is right, even 5 yuan (a “blade”) can be enough for you to invest and have someone like Musk help you make money! Over the years, I’ve sometimes wondered: as an ordinary person, or an ordinary “cow or horse” in society, how can I change my destiny? For example: For someone at the very bottom of society who survives by selling physical labor and time for a living—how can they change? Actually, there is a method, and it’s very simple! For example, if you earn 5,000 yuan a month, you invest 2,000 yuan into a target via long-term monthly investing (treat it as your monthly payment). Treat this target as the “anchor” in your heart! How long should you keep monthly investing? Keep investing until you no longer rely on selling only your physical labor and time to make a living. Invest until the income generated every month by your target exceeds the salary you earn each month from selling your physical labor and time! At this point, you can continue to choose to sell your physical labor and time—or you may also choose not to sell your labor and time anymore. That’s when your mindset changes completely! At this point, when you look at your colleagues and your boss—those are colleagues; they’re the boss. But they’re not “colleagues,” and they’re not “the boss,” either. Your mindset is neither servile nor overly anxious. It’s calm, peaceful, and quiet. Everything stops competing for you! {As you please to write: 《The success or failure of changing your fate lies in the target—what targets are available right now?》} (The world is wonderful and vast, yet we are so small. The future is full of unknowns as well. The above is only my humble personal thoughts—focusing on the present, recorded casually, useful if it suits your缘 (fate).

[Ordinary people can join② of this situation] This book 《The Denationalization of Money》 written by Hayek took about a year to read—and I finished it! ①As for princes and nobles, who are they? Are there no ordinary people?! ②The most profitable business in the world is printing money! Money is all issued through state monopoly—yet individuals or any organization can also issue it!
①In this situation, should we wait for the right time? The time coming could be near—within one or two decades—or far—so far that it might not happen in our lifetime! ②This situation started to happen about 20 years ago already: money is no longer issued by any single country! Satoshi Nakamoto’s Btc has already been an experiment, and knowledgeable people around the world are joining this experiment—including world elites like Elon Musk, and big names like Trump, and many others!
Now and in the future, the trend → money will be issued partly by the state, partly by individuals, partly by certain groups, and multiple forms will coexist! This area—Hayek, the winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics—is a pioneer of ideas!!! For us ordinary people, we can join② of this situation, or just watch from the sidelines. In any case, this is an era that is undergoing change—and even more, it’s a wonderful world! (The world is vast and marvelous, yet we are so insignificant. The future is full of unknowns too.

Everyone of us will grow old. This old man, the resident of Nanwan Village—back then, there used to be a night market here. This old man was specifically in charge of collecting fees! In the village, there are also one or two buildings, right? Back then, I used to set up a stall selling toys. I even gave toys to his child, so his attitude toward me was pretty good. But I didn’t really agree with how he treated other vendors. I wanted to say hello to him, but I didn’t want to bother him. I just took a photo! △ A harsh truth about society is: no matter whether you’re poor or rich, or whether you have power, they all have a single greatest support—good health! With strength, with vitality—living a healthy life is better than everything!
【Wait, what exactly are you waiting for?】 The most important thing in trading is waiting! I also rank (patient waiting) as the top of a trader’s four personal qualities! But, waiting—what exactly are you waiting for?}
An ancient saying goes, “A good hunter is good at waiting.” A hunter knows how to wait before the prey appears—how to conceal oneself in the crucial position—how to pull the trigger at the right moment…… During the waiting, count your bullets; at the critical time, how many shots can you fire…… And as a trader, you must be like a hunter: Insiders lie in ambush before information is released, K-line traders act after divergence, or—based on your own experience or some technique—when price reaches your experience zone or technical entry point, strike! Likewise, during the waiting process, prepare capital, choose the targets (personally, I focus on $ETH ; altcoins $XRP and $TAO as supplements), plan how to strike, and so on. When your market comes, you have confidence—and enough “bullets” to fire! …… And for those who practice the 《True Yin and True Yang Trading Theory》: wait for a large-scale True Yin to short, and a large-scale True Yang to go long. When it arrives, strike immediately—pull your trigger! That “something” you’re waiting for is your basis. Trading is hard, yet also simple: enter with a reason, exit with evidence—then that’s it! (The world is wondrous and vast, yet we are so small; the future is full of the unknown. The above is only my humble opinion. The focus is on the present.
