After seven years in crypto, I’ve seen portfolios—including my own—go to zero multiple times. The harsh truth is that by the end of this bull run, most people will exit broke. But you don’t have to. Here are actionable strategies to help you survive—and thrive—this cycle.

1. Keep Only Liquid Assets 💧

Your investment is only as good as your ability to sell it. If your $1,000 grows to $100,000 but the asset lacks liquidity, you won’t be able to realize those gains. Always assess the liquidity of an asset before investing.

  • Example: The recent $GIGA case highlighted this issue—prices pumped, but many couldn’t sell due to low liquidity.

  • Rule: Prioritize tokens with high trading volumes and active markets.

2. Set Invalidations Before You Enter 🚨

Every position needs an exit plan if things go south. Define invalidation levels—specific conditions that signal it’s time to sell. These could be:

  • Fundamental triggers: Narrative cooling off, legal issues, or negative news.

  • Technical triggers: Key support levels breaking on charts.

Don’t hesitate to exit at a small loss if it saves you from a larger one. You can always re-enter later when conditions improve.

3. De-Risk Early 🛡️

Take profits early and strategically to secure gains. If the market fakes out, you can re-enter with minimal loss. If the move continues, you’ve preserved your capital.

  • Pro Tip: Convert a portion of your profits into stablecoins during pumps to prepare for potential dips.

4. Master Profit-Taking Strategies 💰

Cashing out is just as important as buying in. Use a DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging) out strategy:

  • Sell a portion (e.g., 1/3 of your position) when the market feels overheated.

  • This avoids the trap of waiting for the "perfect top"—which rarely comes.

5. Focus on Winners 🏆

Pay attention to leading narratives and tokens that outperform the market, such as:

  • Memes: Tokens driven by community and culture.

  • AI: Projects at the intersection of blockchain and artificial intelligence.

Avoid chasing laggards. Momentum and hype drive crypto—stick with assets showing strong relative performance.

6. Maintain a Balanced Alt Portfolio ⚖️

Diversification is important, but overdoing it dilutes your ability to outperform. A well-balanced portfolio should focus on 10-15 core holdings with meaningful allocations, not dozens of tiny bets.

  • Bad Example: Holding 50 tokens with $200 in each from a $10k portfolio is unmanageable and unprofitable.

  • Good Example: Allocate 80% of your portfolio to high-conviction assets and 20% to speculative plays.

7. Minimize Rotations 🪑

Every rotation costs you time and focus. Stick to your strategy and avoid hopping from one hot token to another. Accept that you can’t catch every narrative. Over-trading often leads to losses.

8. Always Hold Stablecoins 🏦

Even in a bull run, keeping a chunk of your portfolio in stablecoins is critical. This gives you buying power during dips and ensures you can act quickly during market shakeouts.

  • Reason: The best risk/reward entries often appear after liquidations or panic selling.

  • Rule of Thumb: Always keep at least 10-20% of your portfolio in stablecoins.

9. When You Exit, EXIT 🛑

Once you’ve decided to exit, stick to it. Don’t hold onto tokens hoping they’ll pump later in the cycle—they might not pump at all. Holding a dead bag for the next three years is a trap most investors fall into.

  • Pro Tip: As you scale out, focus on realizing profits and consolidating gains into more stable assets.

Final Thoughts 💡

Crypto bull runs are thrilling but unforgiving. Many will make paper gains but fail to convert them into real profits. By following these strategies, you can protect your portfolio and maximize your chances of walking away with life-changing money.

Remember: discipline is the key. Don’t let greed or FOMO dictate your decisions. Stay focused, manage risk, and always take profits along the way.
