When I first entered the cryptocurrency industry, I was really a novice who didn't understand anything. I heard a saying from a big brother who earns over 100 million yuan a year, and the more I thought about it, the more interesting it became: use physical strength to make money honestly, use mental power to make money flexibly, use money to make money ruthlessly, use resources to make money rounder, and use people to make money more open-minded. He said that ordinary people only dare to do extraordinary things when they have a lot of resources in their hands, and those who truly make money are those who dare to seize seven opportunities with three points of chips in their hands. Later, after staying in the cryptocurrency industry for a long time, I realized that this is not chicken soup, but a survival guide. The on chain world does not reward conservatism at all, it rewards those who dare to bet within acceptable risk. Wait until you are completely certain before getting on the car, the car has already driven away.
Many people think that making money requires certainty, but the cryptocurrency industry is the opposite. Anything that can make money is definitely uncertain; Anything that can make a lot of money must be extremely uncertain. When DeFi first came out, no one believed it. Before NFT exploded, a bunch of people cursed it, and when the inscription was first released, it was even ridiculed. It is precisely this uncertainty that keeps most people out of the door. Ordinary people are afraid of stepping on landmines, while those with high cognition calculate costs, probabilities, and affordability, and then try. Money is never slowly earned, but rather worked hard for two or three years during the window period to widen the gap. Bull markets don't happen every year, and opportunities don't come every day. When the waves come, take a break. When the waves go, work hard and there's basically no chance.
Later on, I gradually realized that the essence of making money is not to earn coins, but to earn 'people'. Behind every transaction on the chain is a game of emotions, trust, and cognition. You solve the problem, and others are willing to give you money; If you help others save time, reduce risks, and improve efficiency, money will naturally flow to you. The four types of money, namely information gap, cognitive gap, execution ability, and core competitiveness, are particularly amplified in blockchain. You know the rules are a kind of money earlier than others, you understand the underlying logic is a kind of money than others, you know that others also know, but doing it is another kind of money. In the end, if you do something to the extreme, it is a moat. You can never earn money beyond your cognitive range. What you earn by luck will also be lost back by strength.
Looking back, you will find that traffic is destiny. Without traffic, no matter how good the project is, no one will foot the bill. The online crossroads are the traffic entry points of the platform, and whoever holds the attention holds the pricing power. Blockchain is also an amplifier of the attention economy, with the number of community members, discussion heat, and narrative intensity all being the shadow of money. But at the same time, emotions can also be amplified, anxiety can make people chase high, panic can make people cut flesh, and impulsiveness can make people explode. Truly powerful people have few moves, controlling positions, pace, and emotions can actually go further. Health is also an underlying asset, staying up late to monitor the market may not necessarily result in profits, it could be an overdraft.
Dimension determines the level of ease. Low dimensional people only see surface ups and downs, while high-dimensional people see structure and cycles. Circle determines cognition, cognition determines choice, and choice determines outcome. Don't guarantee randomly, don't stand in line randomly, and don't be held back by low-frequency people. Society is utilitarian and fair, and value exchange is the underlying logic. Money is not simply earned, it is the reward you receive after creating value for others. Cultivate yourself, enhance cognition, and develop core abilities. Only when opportunities arise can you seize them. Blockchain is just an amplifier, it will amplify your strengths and also amplify your stupidity. The ones who can truly make a comeback are never those who are lucky, but those who continue to evolve.
