As a newcomer who entered the cryptocurrency market at the end of the last bull market, my journey has been filled with extreme fluctuations, like a war without smoke. There have been dazzling glories and endless undercurrents. 1116 days, for most people in the market, may only be a few pages of history, but for me, an outsider who has just stepped into this chaotic land, it has been a time full of growth, conflict, and self-doubt.

At that time, my understanding of cryptocurrency was limited—the so-called concept of "blockchain" was as complex as an alien language, and even the concepts of "wallet" and "private key" left me utterly confused. But just like every young person eager to get rich overnight, I jumped into this ocean woven with dreams and bubbles with full enthusiasm. Countless times in the dead of night, I eagerly stared at the numbers jumping on the screen, my fingertips rising and falling with the market's fluctuations, as if with each refresh, I could catch a glimpse of the future's wealth landscape.

As everyone knows, the market does not have an eternal bull market, especially with the chaotic, rule-less, and unpredictable nature of the cryptocurrency market, which makes it even harder to grasp. With the influx of capital, the bubble gradually expanded, and what followed was an unexpected crash. I never imagined I would witness my account balance plummet in just a few months. I remember that night when the market experienced severe turbulence, prices plummeting like a free-falling ride. My heartbeat quickened with every fluctuating number, and I even dared not take a deep breath.

The baptism of 1116 days has left me with countless lessons and insights. I gradually understood that this market is not a simple zero-sum game, but a maze full of traps and opportunities.

What is most precious is that from these fluctuating prices, I slowly learned patience and calmness. The market's "volatility" is no longer a fear that terrifies me but has become my daily companion. Each adjustment tests my emotions, and each contrarian move sharpens my rationality. Those who can truly survive in this market vortex are often not those who rely on luck and intuition, but those who can stay calm, grasp the rules, and dare to make rational decisions.
