Over the years of copy trading and market manipulation, I’ve seen many people become wealthy overnight from a single profit, and then? They end up in even greater risks. Crypto asset returns are fast, but the other side of the risk is often underestimated. Many people, after making money, find that private key management becomes the weakest link—writing it on paper, storing it in phone notes, or even sharing it with "trusted people." From these cases, it’s clear that these habits are giving criminals opportunities.

My advice is straightforward: no matter how tempting the returns, asset security is the priority. If your copy trading strategy has already achieved good results, the next step is to consider how to protect these gains. Not everyone is suitable for self-managing private keys. Professional custody services may have fees, but for large assets, the security cost is often much lower than the loss from theft.

The essence of copy trading is a risk-reward game, but the premise of this game is to be able to withdraw the money alive. No matter how good the trader is, if the assets are lost, everything is zero.
