How many people have had the goal in mind — to turn 100,000 yuan into a million? Once this idea takes root, they wish they could see the returns tonight. But to make it a reality, there are only two paths in front of you. One wrong step and you could fall into an abyss.

Many choose the first: the path of reckless greed and gambling. Dreaming of hitting the jackpot in one shot, with ten times the profit reaching the finish line — just thinking about that thrill gets you excited. The problem is, these pie-in-the-sky dreams are always floating in the sky, but the chance of them falling on your head is even slimmer than winning the lottery.

Stories around us are too heartbreaking. Some get caught in trending coins and get "cut leeks," others play high-leverage contracts and get liquidated overnight, losing their principal to the bottom line, leaving only endless regret. This path seems fast, but in reality, it’s the easiest to crash and burn.

There’s also the second path: the steady and reliable compound interest route. Turning 100,000 into 200,000, then doubling to 400,000, and again to 800,000 — three rounds of growth can bring you close to a million. The pace is slow and sometimes uncomfortable, but every step is solid and sure.

The beauty of spot investing lies here: you have complete control over your principal and volatility, and time truly becomes your most loyal partner. No need to stare anxiously at candlestick charts, no need to endure the nightmarish swings of leverage.

The secret to success on this path is actually very simple: first, carefully select coins with real application potential and growth prospects, and don’t let those fleeting altcoins disturb your rhythm; second, cultivate the right mindset — when a threefold return appears, don’t rush, give yourself a year or two to slowly accumulate. When your mind is calm and steady, profits will naturally follow.

This path may not give you the adrenaline rush of excitement, but it will steadily lead you to the finish line.
