Many people ask me: how did you make money this round?
I usually don’t want to answer because saying it out loud is too ‘crypto circle narrative’—there was no all-in, no miraculous trades, no overnight wealth, and I didn't even closely watch the market.
And to be honest, I’ve sold a lot of times.
I missed the long positions I should have held, and I got too eager and exited early when I should have waited. If you look purely at the operation details, it’s actually not perfect, and even a bit conservative.
But looking back, the real deciding factor was always one sentence: choosing the right position at the end of 2024, everything else basically followed smoothly.
The real dividing line is not bull or bear markets, but whether you have entered the Alpha zone.
I only understood this thoroughly this year.
The secondary market is a daily game, essentially betting against funds that are faster, fiercer, and more ruthless than you.
Winning a few times is not difficult; the hard part is not being taken away over the long term.
The changes in Binance over the past two years are fundamentally about one thing:
Transforming Alpha from 'information asymmetry for a few' to a process that ordinary users 'can participate in'.
Launchpool is clear Alpha, Web3 wallet TGE is action type Alpha, and one step further is Binance Alpha.
You don't need insider information,
Nor do I need to be faster than anyone in getting news,
As long as you are present, willing to participate, and follow the rules,
Alpha will slowly emerge on its own.
Alpha has had its lows, but it is rejuvenating.
To be honest, the Alpha system hasn't been smooth sailing.
There was indeed a period of time:
Many people have left
The pace has been slow
The external voices of skepticism haven't stopped either.
These are all true, and there's no need to avoid them.
But recently, this feeling has been very obvious:
Project quality has returned, the pace has returned, and the ecosystem is becoming active again.
It's not the kind of 'warming up' that just shouts slogans, but rather you can feel it in the actual entrances, tasks, and project frequency — resetting, rejuvenating.
This is also the reason why I am willing to continue staying in the Alpha zone.
It's not that I haven't seen lows, but that I understand the recovery.
The true value of Alpha: allows you to sell at a loss but won't kick you off the table.
Many people understand Alpha as 'getting the top position'.
But the real experience is:
Even if you've sold at a loss, as long as you are in the Alpha zone, the next round will still be yours.
Over the past year:
Sold at a loss
Played it safe
Missed out
But one thing has always remained the same: I have always stood upstream of chip generation.
So the current state is not 'already rich', but rather — being aware.
Some praises are really deserved.
I am not particularly a fan of individuals, but these two must be named:
CZ
He Yi
It's not because of personal branding, but because they have achieved something rarely seen in the crypto space:
Let ordinary users not rely on a stroke of luck, but be able to enter Alpha repeatedly.
While many projects are still pondering 'how to cut more beautifully',
Binance thinks:
How to make you stay, earn slowly, and participate long-term.
Choosing the right platform can really change a person's way of operating.
In the past, the first thing I did every day was:
Refreshing market data, groups, and teachers, afraid of being one step behind.
Now the first thing I do every day is:
Check if there are new Alphas, new entrances, or new tasks in the Binance system.
Not anxious, not flustered, not internal strife.
Because you know this isn't the only opportunity.
But a whole set of mechanisms that will continuously repair and restart.
The last sentence, not sentimental, but sincere.
The crypto space has never lacked opportunities.
What's lacking is whether you are willing to admit it:
Some money shouldn't be desperately fought for in the secondary market.
Entering the market at the end of 24,
Looking back at January 26,
Even if you've sold at a loss, stepped into pitfalls, or experienced lows,
I still want to say:
Everything is getting better. And this year hasn't even started, I think maybe I can prepare for a prosperous year.
