After trading for so long, I’ve summarized one key experience: if you have a small amount of capital and want to see quick gains, don’t waste your time on mainstream crypto assets.
Mainstream coins like $BTC and $ETH usually just trade sideways—so sideways that you forget your exchange account password. Unless there’s a sudden negative shock causing a sharp drop, their volatility isn’t enough to watch. Compared to this "turtle-paced" market, it’s more stable to buy some fixed-term products.
But the market is never short of opportunities. Almost every period, new hot topics emerge. True opportunities are often hidden in those coins that are instantly ignited by news.
My first task every morning is to review community updates. Whenever I see influential figures mention a niche coin, and then notice the Twitter community start sharing related screenshots en masse—experience tells me this is a signal.
Once such coins start moving, there’s hardly time for thorough analysis. For a coin I previously identified, I simply followed in, quickly built a position, then exited just as fast. My account gained nearly 10,000 USDT—there’s no time to worry about "fundamental value." In this kind of market, all those theories seem too slow.
The core of this strategy is actually very straightforward:
**Information First**: Focus on the latest insights from industry KOLs, and keep a close eye on trending topics in top communities—these often signal emotional triggers.
**Timing Precision**: After a long sideways period, when trading volume suddenly surges and the price pushes toward previous highs, my finger is already hovering over the trade button.
In summary: The most critical skill in a bear market isn’t how good your technical analysis is, but whether you can quickly capture market sentiment. When the whole community is watching the same target, it’s better to follow than question—just remember to exit at the first sign of reversal.
I’ve used this approach for years, earning quite a bit and paying some tuition fees. A reminder to beginners: try small amounts first, but don’t risk your entire savings. Nobody can afford to lose everything.

This is a "trading strategy" disguised as a gambler's mentality, which sounds impressive, but frankly, it's just chasing hot trends, riding on emotions, rushing in and then rushing out—have you ever thought about who is losing the money you can earn?

This guy is right; mainstream coins are indeed easily worn down by sideways trading until you forget your original purpose.
Following the trend of obscure coins for quick in and out can definitely make money, but it also depends on luck being on your side... Sometimes, a one-second delay in information can lead to a huge loss.

ngl this is just sentiment chasing with extra steps... the "network effects" you're describing aren't really adoption curves, they're just herd behavior dressed up as strategy. also the whole "forget your exchange password" thing is kinda cringe tbh

To be honest, this gameplay is just gambling on emotions. If you make a profit, you think you're a master; if you lose, you just pay tuition.
Quick in and out with 10,000 yuan, losing all 100,000 yuan. Can't you see the difference?

To be honest, I've seen this trick too many times, and many people end up losing everything in the end.
It's better to follow your own intuition than to follow KOLs blindly. At least you'll feel more at ease if you lose.
