Crypto contract trading has a certain magic that can make people addicted in one go.
Invest 1500 yuan and make 40,000 in two days—this is not a fantasy; someone has really experienced it. The account balance skyrockets in an instant, and at that moment, everyone feels like they are the next legendary trader. With leverage of dozens of times, a wave of market movement can double the funds, and the thrill is off the charts. The volatility of the crypto market is already fierce; 100% gains or losses have long become commonplace.
The problem is, this kind of thrill is addictive.
A single profitable trade can change a person. After several consecutive wins, you start thinking, "I can do even better." But the harsh reality often hits hard—heavy positions, all-in bets, resisting the market—those 40,000 yuan can disappear just like that, and the account drops back to a few hundred yuan. Making money fast means losing even faster. Some people don’t even get a chance to turn things around before they are wiped out by the market.
This is the most terrifying part of contract trading. It’s not the market conditions that are the problem, but losing control of your mindset. When greed overtakes rationality, you become the market’s leek. The short-term high returns are tempting, but in the long run, they lead to destructive outcomes.
To truly break free from this cycle, it’s not the thrill that’s hard to give up, but the endless desire. Learning to wait, learning to let go of opportunities that seem to double your money—that’s the first lesson in investing. Stability and patience are always more valuable than overnight riches.

Really, the hardest part is mindset. Only when I saw 40,000 gone did I realize what it means to be never satisfied with greed.

To be honest, I'm the kind of person who makes quick money but loses even faster, and I regret it.

It's the same old story... but what you said is indeed correct. I am the kind of person who gets inflated after making a wave, really.

To be honest, this wave of articles is a bit heart-wrenching... I know someone who turned 1,500 into 40,000 and then back to a few hundred. Now I don't even dare to look at his Moments. Greed really is poison; after the thrill of going all-in, comes endless regret.

Basically, it's gambling addiction. I've seen too many people get carried away after a small profit, then go all-in and get wiped out. Mindset is really the biggest enemy.

It's the same old story, I've heard it too many times. How many people can truly walk away completely from the contract?
