When I first entered the crypto world, I also experienced similar difficulties. Take the RIVER coin as an example, my account has been hacked multiple times.
At that time, I frequently contacted customer service to complain. And the result? Basically useless. Later, I gradually understood one thing — the rules of the crypto game operate this way, and you have to accept it. Instead of dwelling on an unchangeable reality, it’s better to focus on self-improvement.
What’s the most important thing? Attention to detail. Seriousness. Every trade should be handled as carefully as performing surgery. Accumulating little by little to make money—that’s the way to survive long-term.
Look at those well-known KOLs and content creators; how many dare to openly trade real accounts? Honestly, among mid-tier KOLs, most have already become numb from losses. They turn to other channels to generate income to cover daily expenses. That’s the current situation.
So my takeaway is: take it slow, don’t rush. Step by step, learn to navigate the pitfalls of the crypto world. The more times you step on those traps, the more you’ll get used to it, and your mindset will stabilize. This isn’t about giving up, but about learning to coexist with the market.

Honestly, I've also fallen into the RIVER trap, with my account exploding to the point of questioning life.
Wait, do these KOLs really have real trading accounts? Why do I always feel...
Taking it slow is the right approach, but how long can one survive if they go at this pace?

Having experienced so many crashes yet still calmly summarizing here truly shows a strong mindset.
To be honest, I also went through the RIVER phase, but I didn't reach your level of awareness so quickly.
Regarding KOLs losing money... well, I believe it.
Take your time, don't rush. It sounds simple, but actually doing it is really hard.
That's just how the crypto world is; once you're used to it, you'll be fine.
Your insights are quite profound, much clearer than I was back then.
The last sentence, "Learn to coexist with the market," really resonated with me. That's exactly how it is.

It sounds like the ramblings of seasoned investors who have been taught a lesson by the market... But to be honest, the KOLs are all pretending, and that really hits home.

Wait, I checked the on-chain data for the RIVER token, and the trading pattern behind this wave of liquidations is obvious... Frequent complaints about customer service are useless. I had already guessed this. According to on-chain tracking, the behavior patterns of those addresses that frequently liquidate are too abnormal.

Ha, that's quite a punch to the gut... But I've also fallen into the RIVER trap, so don't mention it.
It's one thing to say that carefulness and caution are important, but I'm worried that during execution, I might lose control again.
Are those KOLs openly promoting real trading? I think most of it is just hype...
Taking it slow and not rushing is indeed the truth, but this truth is very costly.

Uh... RIVER has exploded multiple times, this guy is really ruthless. If my account had one explosion, I might just quit the scene altogether.
If I hadn't been so eager to go all-in back then, things might be different now. Now I say it so calmly, but who hasn't learned their lesson after stepping on a few mines?
Are KOLs all losing money just to cover their expenses? Then what am I as a small retail investor, just a pure victim of being harvested?
Take it slow, don’t rush. It’s easy to say, but watching others soar to the sky really tests your mindset.
Be careful and cautious... If it were that easy, so many people wouldn’t be going bankrupt.
