That's absolutely right. Whether it's airdrops or mining, it's all about getting "low-priced chips." Personally, I've managed to get some low-priced chips (the cost of Aster's coin is minimal), but my ability to grasp trends afterward is really poor.
Aside from BTC, I've never held onto any altcoins. I've never seen a 10x coin in my experience. During this cycle, I've been working on improving my ability to follow trends and "patterns," but when it comes to actual practice, I'm still terrible 😂.
I also envy the kind of person who can buy a XXX coin, hold it, and get big results all at once, but it is too difficult for a technology arbitrage party like me who has no faith and no psychokinesis.
My current wealth has been accumulated little by little through thousands of manual transactions and tens of thousands of automatic transactions. The few transactions that make the most money increase my wealth by about 10% in a single transaction (ORDI in 2023, ACT in 2024)
Let me sum up my experience, the advantages that need to be polished most for science and technology parties and arbitrageurs are:
- "Improve your ability to take cheap chips", because although you have no faith, your cost is very low and you are easier to hold. For example, like this Aster:1. You can get cheap chips by brushing the trading volume in batches 2. Some on-chain tracking experts have also hoarded APX 3 half a year ago. Do a good job of investment research and monitoring, Aster announced that you can APX 1:1 exchange coins and get cheap chips immediately. 4. Influencers can participate in various KOL rounds
If the cost of the chips is low enough, you will have a very psychological advantage, and it will be easier to achieve "no faith but can pattern"
- After getting cheap chips through various means, if the market really starts, it is better to use some quantitative indicators to grasp the trend than to "think it has risen too much, so I want to sell". When I do news trading, I usually use supertrend, a technical analysis indicator, to decide on exit with different cycles. You can't predict how crazy the market will be, and technical analysis is a way to quantify market behavior. Of course, you can also choose other quantitative methods, such as exit if the trend of social media popularity declines, exit if the number of coins deposited into the exchange exceeds XXX, etc.
The goal of all this is to allow a rational, faithless person to hold the cheap chips he acquired early on in the form of data until the standard you define is met before exiting. This way you will have a greater probability of selling at a good price.
