Spend enough time trading meme coins and you'll quickly grasp something crucial: the difference between holding 100k, 1 million, or 10 million tokens isn't just a numbers game. It shifts everything—how you react to price swings, the decisions you make, the mistakes you avoid. Once you've felt that psychological pressure across different portfolio sizes, you start seeing the market through new eyes. You begin to understand what drives the bigger players—the VCs, the market makers working those altcoin trades. The calculations they make, the positions they hold, the moves they execute. It's not just about the money anymore. It's about recognizing the real impact these positions have on the whole ecosystem.

Really, once you play meme coins to a certain extent, you understand that missing a zero completely changes your mindset. I’ve been through that too, from a small retail investor to now... That kind of pressure definitely changes a person, and your perspective on the market completely shifts. You understand the logic of the big players.

You're right. You really have to go through the pitfalls to understand. When I went from a few thousand yuan to hundreds of thousands, my mindset was completely different, and my sleep quality dropped dramatically.

Really, only after playing meme coins for a certain period do you understand what a mental breakdown is. 100k and 10 million are not just numerical differences; they are two parallel universes.

To be honest, there's actually some psychological insight here—different holding volumes definitely lead to significant differences in mindset.
