Want to turn 100,000 into 1,000,000? There are indeed opportunities like that in the crypto world, but the path you choose determines whether you can ultimately come out on top.



In summary, there are basically two routes: one is to hope that 100,000 will skyrocket tenfold immediately—going all in at once; the other is to take incremental steps—first doubling to 200,000, then doubling again to 400,000, and a third time to around 800,000, bringing you closer to your goal.

Most people are enamored with the first shortcut, but those who truly survive and profit in the crypto space almost all choose the second.

Here's a simple logic behind it:

**Return = Principal × Volatility × Time**

Taking 100,000 as an example, a 100% increase in a year doubles it to 200,000. It sounds insignificant, but consistent reproduction is the key.

Crypto beginners often fall into a trap—always thinking about amplifying volatility to boost returns. The result? Either they get caught in meme coins that can surge 50% in a day and then plummet, or they leverage heavily— a 5% increase with 10x leverage turns into a 50% gain, and losses are equally magnified. With this approach, nine out of ten will get liquidated.

If you want to go further, you need to stick to spot trading and stay away from high-volatility games. The remaining options are twofold:

First, have sharp eyes—carefully select truly promising assets.

Second, be patient—extend your time horizon and rely on trend accumulation to combat anxiety.

The wealth stories in the crypto world are never written by gamblers who get rich overnight, but by gradually stacking small victories. Being steady is the way to go further.

That's right, just stay steady and don't move recklessly. Those stories of getting rich overnight are just for listening. Compound interest is truly powerful; tripling your investment is just a matter of time. Another article advising against leverage, but some people just can't change their gambling nature. Society will catch up sooner or later. Everyone dreams of tenfold returns, but surviving is the real skill. Those who got liquidated regret it. No one listened to the advice. Spot trading is really the only way out. I agree with this logic, but it's incredibly difficult to implement. When anxious, you forget everything. It sounds simple, but in practice, people end up chasing altcoins. Why are people so greedy? A conservative strategy will never go out of style; it's just that no one wants to hear it. Time exchanges for space; it seems slow but is actually the fastest. Unfortunately, most can't wait.

That hits too close to home. Most of the leverage traders around me have basically become cannon fodder.

To be honest, I've seen too many people dream of a quick win and then disappear from the crypto world. Compound interest sounds slow, but the ones who last the longest are really using this approach.

You're so right. Dreaming of tenfold returns every day, but in the end, going all-in and losing everything. I've seen too many people like this.
