#数字资产市场动态 5000U turned into 130,000U: I used position sizing + compound interest to crush the fantasy of overnight riches

Many people's first dream after entering the market is to find that hundredfold coin and just sit back and win. But I’ve seen more cases of people who trade frequently and follow blindly, ending up as profit for others’ accounts.

I once mentored a fan who turned 5000U into 130,000U in three months. The whole process involved no black tech, just two things: focusing on mainstream coins and strictly adhering to position sizing discipline.

**Position sizing is about slicing risk into pieces**

Divide your principal into 5 to 6 parts, operate each part separately, and only invest one part at a time. Sounds stupid? But the benefit is that any mistake won’t wipe you out.

Price drops 10%? Add a position to dilute the cost. Price rises 10%? Sell a part to lock in gains. No need to predict ups and downs; just follow this rhythm mechanically, and refuse emotional interference.

**Compound interest starts with small wins**

It’s not about chasing high returns in a single shot, but stacking multiple small wins. When your account doubles, withdraw 20% of the profit, and let the rest continue to grow. This way, you enjoy the thrill of gains while preserving capital for continued compounding.

Why do most people fail? Because position sizing seems slow—operating part by part, accumulating step by step, which isn’t as exciting as all-in. But the problem is, those who go all-in risk losing everything in one mistake, while surviving is the prerequisite for compound interest. Many get stuck in anxiety over missing out on gains.

**The hardest part is actually fighting human nature**

The market is never short of opportunities; what’s truly lacking is patience to stick to a systematic approach. If you’re currently stuck in a cycle of losses, ask yourself calmly: Am I still gambling on luck, or am I finally ready to replace impulsiveness with discipline?
