This wave of BSC market activity reminded me of a often overlooked truth: every market revolution comes at a cost.

Early believers often become the fuel for this game—they lay the groundwork with their funds and enthusiasm for the gains of later participants. This is not a curse, but the reality of market operation. The focus is not on complaining about this pattern but on understanding and adapting to it.

After experiencing this round of market activity, I am even more convinced of a trading principle: never put all your assets in one direction. Taking profits when the time is right is not cowardice, but wisdom for longer survival. The market is always there, and the next opportunity will always come, but only if you are still in the game.

The blood, sweat, and tears of early bagholders, it's so realistic. Knowing when to take profits is truly not a loss; being alive is the real winner. That's why some people make ten times, while others are still trapped. People who understand risk management have already exited. It's the wisdom of "living in the game," but how many people really do it? Diversifying risk is easier said than done, everyone. This round of BSC taught me not to go all in; long-term holding is the way to go. That's right, early believers are synonymous with being a leek (retail investors). The key is to hold onto your chips when the next opportunity comes. Making 50% and then selling is way more satisfying than the anxiety of waiting for 200%.

It's easy to say "take profits early," but isn't survival the most important? The ones who really make money have already run away. --- Early believers are just like leeks; everyone understands that, but greed is unstoppable. --- It's easy to say "take profits when things look good," but who can resist going all in at critical moments? --- Staying alive in a game is indeed important, but you need some chips to do so. --- This set of theories just sounds like armchair quarterbacking; no one thinks this way when the market is good. --- Diversifying risk sounds right, but it's hard to let go. --- Again, got cut? No wonder they call themselves "leeks" to be cut. --- This round, BSC players probably all figured it out; next round, they'll have to make mistakes all over again.

To be honest, I understand the blood and tears of early bagholders too well—it's just your nourishment. Don't talk about any grand principles; the key is to survive and exit. People who are all-in on one coin are now just staring blankly. The next opportunity will definitely come, it all depends on whether you still have bullets left.

The blood and tears of early bagholders, so true. But I think the key is still mindset; greed is the original sin. A quick profit is not necessary at all. Living longer is the way to make big money, I truly believe that now. Are they coming to harvest the leeks again? When can we escape the top? Taking profits when the time is right sounds easy, but actually doing it is really deadly. But indeed, staying alive is more important than anything. Risk management is seriously underestimated; most people want to go all-in after earning a little. Tired of gambling, now everyone just wants to earn steadily and safely. Is that possible? This is why most people end up being cleared out; greed makes people lose their minds.
