The cryptocurrency world is a university, but it’s not a 4-year program; it’s an 8-year program.
As we all know, the cryptocurrency world has a 4-year cycle.
If you are a complete novice and have no understanding of blockchain concepts,
you can only truly 'graduate' after experiencing two cycles, which means achieving freedom.
Entering this university, the first step is to choose a major:
• Trading: high-frequency, day trading, trends, short-term speculation, spot, futures, leverage, options...
• Playing on-chain: navigating DeFi, NFT, GameFi, MEME, inscriptions, runes, new coin listings and arbitrage...
• Engaging in primary market: research, participating in early-stage investments, looking for new tracks, new narratives.
• Farming: account farming, Odyssey, airdrop farming, multi-account strategies, avoiding witches...
• Arbitrage: market price differences, cross-platform arbitrage, dex-cex arbitrage, Pendle market arbitrage...
• Arbitraging: OTC, cross-border, cross-platform price difference trading.
In the first 4 years, you should focus on rapidly accumulating funds.
During this time, your goals are survival, learning, and optimizing strategies.
Those starting from scratch or with very little capital can try high-frequency trading or farming, constantly improving skills through practical experience to accumulate initial capital.
By the second 4 years, with funds and experience, your role should shift from speculator to investor.
• Focus on long-term trends and layout promising coins.
• Understand cycle rotation and grasp the bull-bear rhythm.
• Even participate in project development.
Ultimately, these 8 years are a journey of cultivation, not only of wealth growth but also of cognitive leaps. After graduation, you will no longer be anxious about wealth but can truly choose the life you want to live.
In the university of cryptocurrency, there are no diplomas, only results. Everyone's progress bar is different; can you stick it out until the day of 'graduation'?
