Every investor's journey includes losses. It's not if you'll experience a drawdown, but how much and how you react. On Binance Square, distinguishing between loss in stablecoins and non-stablecoins is critical for a robust risk management strategy. This article breaks down the realities of "loss percentages" and how to prepare for them.
The Myth of "Zero Loss" in Stablecoins
Many new investors believe stablecoins like USDT, USDC, or BUSD are immune to loss. This is a dangerous misconception. While they aim to maintain a 1:1 peg with a fiat currency (like the USD), several factors can lead to a "loss percentage":
De-peg Risk (Rare, but Real): The most significant risk. If a stablecoin loses its peg (e.g., UST's collapse), its value can plummet. While top stablecoins are robust, a 5-10% de-peg, even temporarily, is a significant loss if you need to liquidate.
Loss Percentage: In extreme de-peg events, this can be 5% to 99%+. For major, audited stablecoins, temporary minor de-pegs of 0.1% to 1% are more common during high market volatility.
Platform Risk: If the exchange holding your stablecoins faces issues (hacks, insolvency), your assets, stable or not, are at risk.
Loss Percentage: Can be 0% to 100%, depending on the severity of the platform's issue.
Inflation Erosion: While not a "loss" in dollar terms, holding stablecoins long-term means your purchasing power erodes due to inflation. Your $1000 might still be $1000, but it buys less tomorrow.
Loss Percentage: Annual inflation rate (e.g., 3-5% currently), a hidden but real loss of value.
Strategy for Stablecoins:
Diversify: Don't put all your stablecoins into one type (e.g., hold some USDT, some USDC).
Utilize: Don't let stablecoins sit idle. Use Simple Earn or Liquid Swap to generate yield, counteracting inflation.
Research: Understand the collateral backing your chosen stablecoin.
Navigating the Volatility: Loss in Non-Stablecoins
This is where "loss percentage" becomes a daily reality. Non-stablecoins (Bitcoin, Ethereum, altcoins) are highly volatile. A 20-30% drawdown in a bull market is common; in a bear market, 50-80% is the norm.
Market Drawdowns: The price simply goes down. This is the most common loss.
Loss Percentage: Can range from 5% to 90%+ in a bear market.
Liquidation: For leveraged traders, this is a 100% loss of your margin.
Loss Percentage: 100% of the collateral used.
Project Failure: The crypto project you invested in fails, becomes inactive, or is revealed as a scam.
Loss Percentage: 100%.
Strategy for Non-Stablecoins:
Risk Tolerance: Define your maximum acceptable loss before you invest. If you can't stomach a 30% drop, start with less volatile assets or lower allocations.
Position Sizing: Never invest more than you can comfortably afford to lose. A 50% loss on 1% of your portfolio is manageable; on 50% of your portfolio, it's devastating.
Stop-Loss Orders: Use these to automate your exit if a trade goes against you, preventing small losses from becoming catastrophic.
Diversification: Don't put all your eggs in one altcoin basket. Spread your investments across different sectors and market caps.
Long-Term Horizon: For strong projects, a long-term view helps weather short-term volatility. Many losses are only realized if you sell.
Conclusion: Loss is a Teacher
Accepting that losses are a part of crypto trading is the first step towards managing them effectively. Whether it's a slight de-peg of a stablecoin or a major drawdown in an altcoin, having a predefined strategy and understanding the potential loss percentages for different assets will save you from emotional decisions and protect your capital. Your most valuable asset in crypto isn't your coins; it's your risk management plan.

Saya biasa "rekt" terus menerus di $SOL . Saya akan membeli di $105, mengatur stop-loss saya persis di $100.00, dan pergi tidur. Saya akan bangun dan melihat harga mencapai $99.90, mengeluarkan saya dari perdagangan, dan kemudian meluncur ke $150.
Saya benar tentang arah, tetapi saya kehilangan uang. Kenapa? Karena saya terjebak dalam Round Number Trap.
Inilah mengapa menggunakan angka seperti $100, $50, atau $0.10 adalah kesalahan terbesar dalam Perdagangan Kripto 2026.
PERANGKAP PSIKOLOGIS
Manusia menyukai angka yang bersih dan bulat. Rasanya teratur. Rasanya "aman" untuk mengatur stop di $2000 di $ETH .

Mari kita jujur. 99% token AI adalah sampah.
Saya ingat hype "Metaverse" tahun 2021. Ingat $SAND dan $MANA menjual tanah virtual seharga jutaan? Di mana mereka sekarang? Sebagian besar proyek AI saat ini melakukan hal yang sama—menempelkan "AI" pada PDF dan meminta uang Anda.
Tapi ini dia twist-nya: Sektor AI itu sendiri bukanlah gelembung. Ini adalah revolusi industri tahun 2026. Triknya adalah mengetahui 1% mana yang akan bertahan.
Masalah "GPT Wrapper"
Sebagian besar token yang Anda lihat di Twitter hanyalah pembungkus. Mereka tidak memiliki teknologi sendiri. Mereka hanya terhubung ke API ChatGPT dan mengenakan biaya kepada Anda. Ketika OpenAI memperbarui model mereka, proyek-proyek ini mati dalam semalam.

Di pasar kripto yang volatil saat ini, satu pertanyaan besar tetap ada: apakah Anda harus memegang dalam jangka panjang atau berdagang dalam jangka pendek? Kabar baiknya? $BTC, $ETH, dan $SOL solid untuk kedua strategi.

$BTC ideal untuk pemegang jangka panjang. Ini dipercaya, deflasi, dan dianggap sebagai emas digital. Namun, ini juga favorit trader karena volume dan volatilitasnya yang tinggi. $ETH adalah koin yang paling serbaguna — Anda bisa mempertaruhkan, menggunakannya dalam DeFi, atau berdagang berdasarkan pembaruan jaringan. Kecepatan dan biaya rendah $SOL membuatnya hebat untuk trader jangka pendek, tetapi ekosistemnya yang berkembang menarik bagi para penganut jangka panjang.
