#加密生态动态追踪 When it comes to leveraged trading, it's really not that easy to walk away completely unscathed.


I have a friend whose $ETH position skyrocketed from 1,500 USD to 40,000 USD in just two days—at that moment, the dream of being the "Warren Buffett of the crypto world" took root in his mind. But what happened? He doubled down with a heavy position and ended up losing that 40,000 USD back to just a few hundred dollars. He was devastated, but the adrenaline was still there—constantly craving that rush of massive profits.
Another buddy keeps shouting, "I'm done with futures," but as soon as there's a little market movement, he's out of there faster than anyone else.
I've tried coins like $PIPPIN and $AXL. Later, I realized that the most terrifying thing about futures isn't even the losses themselves—
It's that feeling of "thrill."
When leverage is turned up dozens of times, if the market moves in your favor, your capital rockets upward like a missile. The speed is ten times faster than spot trading, and the excitement exceeds gambling. Once you've experienced the thrill of doubling your money, your mind becomes completely locked—you're only thinking about the next "life-changing reversal."
The most heartbreaking part is: what destroys most traders isn't even the final loss—
It's that thought of "I can still turn it around."
Every stop-loss feels like self-denial, and every increase in leverage is a gamble on reversing the situation. The dream is seductive, but the price is often too high.
