Holding 100,000 yuan and aiming to reach one million, frankly, it boils down to two options in front of you.

One is dreaming of a tenfold explosion—turning 100,000 directly into a million. Sounds fantastic, but the risk is terrifying. Most people want to go this route, but in the end, those who actually make money are often those who choose the other path.

The other is step-by-step doubling—100,000 to 200,000, then to 400,000, and finally to 800,000. Three rounds of doubling are usually enough to meet the goal. It may seem slow, but each step is solid. Many aspire to fly high instantly, but those who can consistently profit are actually those who walk the "slow road" steadily.

Why is the slow road more appealing? Just look at this formula: Return = Principal × Volatility × Time.

Suppose you have 100,000 yuan. Doubling it in a year to 200,000 sounds easy, but actually doing it is a different story. Many chase after altcoins—today up 50%, tomorrow down half—or play with high leverage. Trying to amplify a 5% gain tenfold with 10x leverage—results in skyrocketing risk, and profits vanish into thin air.

If you decide to resist leverage and focus on spot trading, there are only two paths left:

First, choose the right coins. Find projects with real application scenarios and solid fundamentals—don’t chase after hype blindly. Second, extend the cycle. Let time help you accumulate slowly; don’t expect to get rich overnight. This route may be slow, but it’s stable. You won’t be anxious like chasing highs and selling lows, and you can steadily move forward amid market fluctuations.

The true winners are often not the smartest, but those who can persist the longest. This is the underlying logic of spot investment.
