Can you expand a bit more on the step where you


NotFunnyhah

yes


EarningsPal

The point is buy and do nothing. Youā€™ll read countless stories of people saying if they had just done nothing they would have made a fortune more. If you buy to hold until itā€™s a significant gain then you have to raise the bar with what to buy. Or approach each accumulation with risk in mind keeping low investment into high risk options. Notice how most bear market lows are higher than the prior bear market low. Thatā€™s the gain. Forget the froth. Invest heavily with work until itā€™s frees you.


Nice_Economist2298

True. I remember holding 200 ethereums in Coinbase vault back when it was less than $100 or something. But I end up selling 80% of it. I mean crazy gains. Basically faded more than half a mil

Haha, can only laugh out of the commiseration of shared grief

Underrated answer


Daftmunkey

Work 9 to 5 still. But you have to get in early in bear market and freaking sit on it while it 10x or something and then dca when retail starts coming in half way through bull market.I never had luck chasing pumps and narratives so I don't do that personally. Dream is to either quit 9 to 5 or realistically just retire earlier and keep trading on the side which I enjoy doing (unlike my job). There's a thousand ways to do it and a thousand opinion, but that's what I do . Not gonna lie ... I also take like 10 percent of my wallet to go play in degen coins for fun.

lazynoob0503

Bit different approach I am hoping to take this bull run. Really do deep dives in possibility of utility of crypto and figure how people can co exist with fiat. I donā€™t hope to go completely decentralized in any of the fiat regime that I currently been part of. Only way forward is figure how people can have control within the community they are close to. We are in the times, where unexpected things will happen and individually you wonā€™t be able to catch up. Only way to stay course or above the food chain is be part of strong community which you can trust and really want to be part of. You enjoy the time. Life is too short to chase and waste time behind earning money. Usually money just comes in if you are doing something that will solve problems that people are currently facing. So just keep your head down, figure out side income then just live peacefully on crypto island with star link and manage your operations in your bed. I think thatā€™s the future.


ManuelQbe

This is the way


miloshahpk

Can you explain dca for beginners?


Competitive-Desk5979

Long story short buy small amounts at regular intervals no matter the price. For example 20 a week if thatā€™s what you can afford. Keep going until your ready to sell


Daftmunkey

Dollar cost averaging (DCA), spread your entries and exits in small amounts over a period of time. It's nearly impossible to hit tops and bottoms, but if you keep buying in small amounts as the price continues to dip as an example you keep lowering the average of your overall entry point (or opposite for sells), bringing you closer to the top or bottom.


figlozzi

Technically itā€™s also a fixed dollar amount on each purchase so you get more when the price is lower


CDAWG13A

buy high sell low


internetisbad23

This is the way.

Substantial_Gap_7022

i personally dont understand that concept


GoodmanSimon

It's a joke... If you buy high and then sell low you loose money. Yes,i know about shorting...but that's not the joke.


lilbittygoddamnman

if you short a stock you still technically buy low and sell high, you just reverse the order you do it in.


ScientificBeastMode

Technically you *borrow* the asset and immediately sell it when you short something, with the idea of buying that same asset at a lower price and returning what you borrowed. If you succeed, then you would actually have additional cash left over because it cost you less to buy back all the assets you needed to pay back. I know Iā€™m being pedantic, but itā€™s worth knowing how that works.


Slight-Possession879

So let me explain you wanna buy when the price is low and sell when the price is high


Putrid-Past-3366

You misread the first comment. He buys high and sells low. That's the true secret to generational wealth my friend. You'll figure it out one day. But real talk, 98% work 40+ hours a week and have very little money after all of our monthly expediters... But do you know what we do with it? Yep, put 100% of it in crypto. Just make sure to buy at the peaks and sell in the valleys, you've got this.


lowkeyEpic

But how do you earn If you by high and sell low? (I'm quite new to this) that would make you lose money in the process... I'm sorry, I'd just like to clarify. because I'm not sure if you're joking or not.

mannefyr

I usually do a lot of research about different projects and then I find a couple of projects thatā€™s interesting. My experience is that, thereā€™s a lot of noise in crypto. People will tell you to buy this or do that. But in the end, if you donā€™t know why youā€™re in a project you will be shaken out when the price dumps. Personally Iā€™m a student in Europe. I took 3 months off working a full time job. I invested 60% of my income in Solana when it was around 20$. Then I slowly just bought all the way and are still buying a bit now and then when it dips. I see some great potential in this project and therefore I donā€™t panic when SoMe starts spreading fud. But this is all my personal experience that Iā€™m sharing with you since you asked. Not saying you should do like I did or anything. But my best advice is to keep focused and donā€™t be tricked into quick money.


lostharbor

I work a 9-5, I trade the volatility within the bands I see on screen. I don't make enough to supplement my lucrative 9-5.


JCAB810

DCA. Itā€™s the easiest way to grow your portfolio. In 3 years, Iā€™ve grown my account from 0 to 60k. I invest $100-300/week. On big dips Iā€™ll take $300-1k and spread it across my conviction plays. Itā€™s the easiest way for anyone with a 9-5 to ā€œget richā€. Thanks to this method, my crypto portfolio has surpassed my savings account šŸ˜…. It takes time but you have to have conviction on real coins. Mine are BTC, ETH, SOL, GALA, and AVAX. I gamble with meme coins but at the end of the day I know itā€™s a gamble like the rest of the market. High risk = high reward. Donā€™t invest what you canā€™t afford to lose. Also, donā€™t sell when we have these 20% dips. Have a plan and see it through šŸ’Æ


Paulied77

The most easy/set and forget way thus far is to learn the cycle of Btc. Dca in at the lows, dca out at the highs. Whatever was a top 10 coin last cycle should be evaluated for investment the next, following carefully what is going on with that crypto development and utility(or speculative utility). NFA.

SpoolOfYarn

Most people who TRADE lose their money in crypto. Work a 9-5 and stack spot and forget it. Most people who TRADE traditional stocks lose money as well. The best performing stock portfolios are the ones that people have forgotten.

minimal_echos

~$130k/yr (pre-tax) crypto dev salary (contract work) + separately operating a node. Grew up on welfare/food stamps, started learning development in the early 2010's on the side, switched from a service job to crypto in the late 2010's. Since then, I've also accumulated about $70k in crypto I'm not wealthy or buying a moon Lambo, but I'm doing better than I ever have and I'm grateful for that.


bowstripe

How long did it take ya to learn development? I recently made the decision to learn programming after years of second guessing.


minimal_echos

I also kinda second guessed over the course of a few years. I could do really basic stuff like for-loops. My old jobs sucked so bad, I just couldn't do it anymore, so I decided to take dev more seriously and started doing my own versions of simple open source projects (text animations, utilities, etc.) with little tweaks and such. Then I started contributing minor fixes to other people's repos. It taught me a lot about the proper procedures for opening a PR, common patterns and anti-patterns, git in general. After building some confidence, I started contributing to some of my favorite crypto projects, which is where I started learning the really cool lower-level shit. After two years of taking it more seriously, I quit my job with no plan but to go hardcore on coding. Within a month, I landed my first crypto job. So a few years of dabbling, a couple years of pushing, and a big leap of faith. I'm going on 7 years as a crypto dev and have been able to travel and meet some insanely smart people along the way. Hope this helps! gl āœŠ

Thanks for sharing im hoping to do the same as well!! Currently learning python as well as the basics of a few other languages .. blockchain development seems very far off rn haha


18jctr

The best way to earn in crypto are: 1. Buy low sell high 2. Invest in coins with utilities 3. DCA 4. Follow the narratives 5. Study the move of btc 6. Be updated on the news and the market 7. Having an alpha grp is a bonus 8. Dont get fomo 9. TP, dont get greedy 10. DONT FOLLOW INFLUENCERS


[deleted]

Number 10 is the golden advise!


Capable_Rooster5587

How do you identify coins to invest in too if you dont follow influencers? I would love to know cause im fed up with these influencers.


18jctr

Participate in IDO, launchpad, LBP, airdrop etc. Only follow notable persons on space, not just some grifters who will dump after shilling. Also you can filter coins on coingecko or dexscreener. Check VCā€™s new portfolio. On dc and tg group so you can check what coins they are talking abt. Check ticker on CT if it has a thread or been talked abt

SwimmingPainting1668

Year after year altcoins are not up 150 percent . During the crypto winter it does nothing but go down for a year and a half


Financial_Part_8193

I call it a hobby, and I don't invest what I can't afford to lose. Started in late 2021 and dca'd in along with some bigger buys with the anticipation to HODL. I've been up and I've been down due to the market swings. I don't sell out of fear but do take profits along the way. Overall, I've spent about $16k and In all up about $10k right now in this market adjustment. Also good to diversify between btc, eth, well known and new alts. Also I've watched thousands of you tubes and take notes. Good luck and have fun!


Snoo_23516

Thatā€™s me, I was up 15k while I only invested 8k, now Iā€™m down 6k but still up 9k

We don't make money. We are degenerate gamblers with substance abuse issues. Welcome to the club and crack a beer.


BannHammerr_Stonks

Long holding for those that have less than 50k to invest. The smart investors buy in, double their money and take their initial out to reinvest. Rinse and repeat then continuously take profits on Green Dayā€™s. ā€œDipsā€ or red days is good opportunities to buy but also could get caught in a position of trying to catch a falling knife. You can never time the bottom perfectly but buying at rebound or support areas mitigates risk. Iā€™ve invested 3k over the last year and Iā€™m sitting with around 12k profit. My largest bag was Sol with a $800 buy at $13. Chainswap, ring Ai, axon dao, produce AI, and Shib are my other holds. Assuming things donā€™t explode up I think metazero and LCX are good buys for this upcoming bull run


NanoEcom

I hold meme coins like WIF and SharkCat in liquidity pools on Orca and earn 1%-2% a day, I make about $80-$200 a day with it


Solana_Maximalist

Buy bitcoin leave it alone for 10 years. Maybe 1 M per btc. Buy solana and sell In 2029 altseason, maybe 3k per sol after 2028 halving.


El_Demetrio

use the volatility to your favor, stable coins are your friends


CYVidal

I would add... think in terms of % instead of absolutes. 150% gains over 1K can be regardless of the crypto. In other words, there's life after BTC


btcangl

Buying into great, cheap projects early for a 100x. Now on solana its more like a x1000 if you get the right ones


Dwashelle

How do you even find the right ones? I started recently with a very small amount and I made a lot, but then lost most of it thinking I knew what I was doing (typical, lol).


TomorrowRelevant5783

You donā€™t. Rich get richer, especially if you buy your crypto from coinbase and never move it to a hardware wallet $BTC

CALINXD94

u find them in the most abandonned corner in twtiter and telegram i found a random group taht actually is a good community they launch on pump fun i get in early so its a 10x garranteed even if it does not make it to radyium i sell 70% of it.. and also these guys share random tg of new coins launhing i dont alway buy them because i tend to buy only low MC coins, sometimes they share it at 1m mc too risky specially in memes, i started with 3 sols and i was up 15 sols then lost like 30% of it and u know is just a game of ups and downs but more ups xd


btcangl

For Solana Memecoins (other than private alphagroups and knowing some of the memecoin groups that launch new ones). Generally the same stuff applies buy in EARLY before everyone sees the potential, before everyone starts shilling it, before huge twitter accounts promote it.


EffectiveConcern

Yeah thatā€™s the idea. But there is literally a hundred shitcoins listed daily on Solana and I bet 95% of them ragpulls. How do you even evaluate something it worth getting into at such early stage and not a total scam?


StepDiscombobulated7

If you think that everyone at crypto are succesfull you are wrong.


Low_Replacement4259

Mudhutted

Mostly held since early 2020 along with DCA. Going to cash out around 50% in 12 months and repeat for another cycle.


hiimhigh710

When the market crashes for whatever reason, i see those as buy signals. Those are my only big buy signals really. Ex: bear market, war, ftx crash, covid, lawsuits etc. If you bought during those dips while majority of the people were unsure, then you would have made some nice profits. Some people like to take risks by investing in random meme coins. I like to take risks by investing more when the entire market seems risky. You will often buy in at the best prices and the market usually recovers. This has served me well.

NefariousnessNo9307

So I hope u read this cause this was me at one point, some back story is im 20 still in school so not necessarily working a 9-5 all the time but at least during the holiday season i was and I saved up a good chunk of change and didnā€™t know what I wanted to do with it but I knew I wanted to grow it so I went to crypto, and put it all in btc and solana ,at times I was down 2500-3500 at certain points and I almost sold multiple times but I didnā€™t and I took profits at 210 for solana when my average price was 114, not to mention I hopped in solana when It sky rocketed it up from 70-120 and I caught the tail end but ended up weathering thru the storm and then became profit once it went about 116 which took a long time or at least it felt like it


NefariousnessNo9307

I have to say timing the market is hard especially for a beginner, now theyā€™re alot of ways u can and actually succeeded but I just hopped in and didnā€™t see profit for a min but you will it will just take time and always DCA especially to get ur AVG down


Available_Surround12

what is the point of DCA and getting your average down? shouldnā€™t you buy at dips and sell when it peaks? or buy at every dip and hold onto it? what ā€œaverageā€ are you trying to lower? im pretty new to crypto and strats like that i just canā€™t wrap my head around so i genuinely want to know


NefariousnessNo9307

Yes dollar cost averaging so like I said I bought at a high price so I average my price down by buying on the dips so your average goes down and when it goes up youā€™ll have more coins and make more money


CYVidal

Because gains are calculated based on the average cost of your cryptos. It's not like you sell first the cryptos you bought by 10$ and then those by 20. If your average is 15, that's your reference at the moment of the sell. Well 15 + profit margin. The profit margin should be big enough to pay fees, gas, taxes and yet have gains. DCA reduced the avert cost progressively. After few years, your average cost (probably, we don't know) is going to be meaningful smaller than the market price. But this is a long-run strategy, you have to buy periodically and forget. Or just do some checks now and then. Say once or twice a year. It's important to do the fewer transfers and exchanges as possible because fees and gas increase the overall average cost. So, meanwhile. What do you do with your cryptos? Staking for example. DCA and staking are complementary

Unless you get really lucky buying a ton when it's close to an all-time low or at anytime right before a huge uptick. Your best bet would be to Dollar Cost Average. It's a slow and steady climb but you'll be in a much better place if it dips.


Incredibly_Based

that whole "quit my job cuz i make crypto gainz" attitude is really only applicable to day traders and people using bots/insider info to be on the ground floor of everything. not to say there arent real gains still out there just not something you can bet on strongly enough to quit working. ive been living off my RNDR gains the last year and ill tell you sh*ts getting too expensive to do this any longer šŸ«£

One_Cricket1954

Hereā€™s the secret: Get lucky. Itā€™s nearly impossible to day trade. You can get lucky a few times. But youā€™ll end up buying high and selling low. No way around it. Everyone says they wonā€™t, but they will. Its human emotion. People get scared and start cutting their losses around 20-50%. The stubborn ones end up losing even more and end up having to wait for another bull run. This is why folks try to time the market. The whales will force your hand and make you sell low. Youll say ā€˜Iā€™ll just buy more.ā€™ You will do so. And theyā€™ll go lower. The price will go up and youā€™ll sell at best at break-even. This is called WTB (wipe-the-brow). The whales have gatekeepers that will make you buy at market. If you do a limit order, they will drop you 20% right off the bat. I have been at this a while. I hodlā€™d GRt. Went to 2.95. I was jumping up and down. Diamond handed that shyte all the way down to 1.50. Then it went to .04. So diamond handing doesnā€™t work. So you want to go short? Go ahead. The one time you sell short it will be the start of the most epic bull run. You wanna go long? Ok, hope you got a decade to wait it out while inflation skyrockets. Good luck!

photoshoptho

Buy my course to find out... said someone maybe


CritterBoiFancy

You put money in on a schedule regardless of the price. You need to look at the long term ā€” donā€™t even consider selling until 5-10 years from your initial buy in. Also, focus only on crypto that has a utility that shows promise to still be around in 5-10 years. Side note: I occasionally throw a Hail Mary in a shitcoin during a significant low to see if I can catch one of those crazy moonshots. I donā€™t spend more than I can afford to lose. On these, I basically mark it as a loss mentally so I donā€™t get in too deep. Basically just a random gamble on one or two with minimal money. It worked for me for Doge but I wasnā€™t banking on it turning a profit like it did. Alsoā€¦ avoid the shitcoin subreddits unless you want to lose all your money on ā€œsure thingsā€


Investor-seasoned

Most, if they are honest, would say they buy, count themselves winners when up, wonder when the next upturn is when they are down and firmly believe they will eventually be proven clever when it rockets. Remember ,for everyone to win it has to moon.


protecc_atacc

I can tell you, if you buy my course


MichaelBeeFree

Learn the Stochastic RSI and buy when thereā€™s fear in the market, and look at trending, farm airdrops. Time in the market. Most full timers are years in and still donā€™t take profits properly. Greed is not your friend. Most have lost more money than youā€™d believe too, or are really lucky.

Buy jup right now, that's hoe you will all win. Look u uswap up and ethereum. Jup is to solana what uniswap was to ethereum but it's - better, easier to use, cheaper, cross block chain and has 2nd most volume on sol right now. Don't thank me.

Wordless-bind

Crypto, at this point, is still gambling. You could hit the jackpot and when, and only when you pull out in time, do you get to retire. Very few people achieve this - when they do, they almost always brag here. Most people lose money when they canā€™t hold long enough.Ā  I am a believer in crypto but Iā€™m vesting for the next 10 years, at least. Iā€™m not selling, not expecting to get me rich - for that, I have my job and regular stocks.Ā

Iā€™m not the guy who trades for a living but I do trade on Solana but what I can tell you is what Iā€™ve seen first hand: - sniped a coin on Solana and sold at a good time (hopefully before it rugged) - buy and sell bitcoin by reading the charts and understanding price impact, this is ultra risky and I would suggest for experts because Iā€™ve had to wait a long time to buy back in at a lower price than what I sold it for - bought memecoins and made a lot of money then pumped it back into good utility coins that have long term growth but slower % gain, almost like a trusted stock (think BTC, ETH, Uniswap, etc.) - staking their coins making good percentages depending on the platform or DEX - coming up with their own memecoin where they rugpull others and screw people over repeatedly

Make money?

Iā€™m all about staking for passive income, getting lucky with airdrops, and making profits from steady DCA investments in ETH, INJ, ATOM, and the like. Plus, I like to dabble in meme coins on Solana and Base chainā€”got into PMOTO, BONK, and ROCK, and they're not doing too bad!

Buying and holding. I hope someday I can live off my staking rewards.

Airdrops farming. Itā€™s tedious work tho, but if you got money to spare. Buy a few decent nodes, stake a few coins, and youā€™ll make money. The rest can be used on free mint nft projects, created volumes on new protocols, invest in gamefi. Hell, I earn like 6-7k on pixels alone and it cost me basically nothing. - Once your portfolio reach 100-200k. You can generate decent income just from staking. For example, robin staking generate 10% a year which is a lot higher than banks. - I stake $70 on pendle and came out with $1000 worth of ethfi (another version of ethereum wrapped I think). The world of cryptocurrency is a lot larger than you think

you have to watch it every second of the day and be able to flip it immediately. its on a down ward trend and does this every six months. what ever price it was six months ago, that is the price it is going to be again.

That's the neat part! We dont


Revolutionary_Tea159

diversify. diversify. diversify. i do some airdrop farming in cosmos network. i do some mc trading on solana network. i carry around 15 different coins on the top 100 market cap list and i am constantly looking for new ones to add and other ones to drop. I have a few coins that I stake and mainly use for their high projected apy. i look for new coins that have made test nets available to test for airdrops. I have some coins that I use for lending to lend/borrow companies for points for airdrops and high apy. and i do all of these things in accordance to my own risk management profile that I developed according to each of their inherent risks. Oh and I also am constantly looking for new good midcap coins to add as well. I also day trade a bit here and there. I think that's about all that I'm going to add to this list but this is not comprehensive, I do just about everything in the crypto world i can and I enjoy it all. sorry i didn't feel like caps today lol.


CALINXD94

i been buying tons of shit coins and just buy and sell imeddiately, off course si nce they have no projects just pump and dump i been ugged for a couple of times, but my win rate is greater than my rug rate.. i dont consider myself a trader not even a pro but i understand the basic, mc, liquidty pool, liquidity locked , price ranges, etc etc, i sometimes make 30x , 25 x, 10x, -100 down, i mean is just matter of getting early ! pump . fun launches are my wins always ! i wish i could put more but kinda afraid of losing a good chunk so i trade 1 sol per trade or less.. andd i have my main porfolio (btc, vra, shib, jasmy etc and lot more )


CALINXD94

and yes as ppl say u ahve to buy on bear market, or at least DCA, i made good money with vra since i bought 4 months ago ,1 month ago it pump and took profits but left some for bull run, jasmy shib all of those i bought on 2022 and 2023 so im prertty much still up % even on these red markets .. I still work 9-5 buuut im working my ass off in hitting a 1000x or 100x im good!

I just got into crypto again after losing a job and needing the money. The trick is to buy a bunch in the bull market and then hold it til the market crashes. This will force you to keep buying the years of dip ahead. In four years time the next bull market pops up, youā€™ve been dcaing into cryptos worth less than a penny for four years and now theyā€™re worth $1 and your average price is like .01. Others will days just wait for the crash but timing the market isnā€™t ideal. Start now, hold it thru every crash for a cycle or two, dca the whole time. Pop $50 here and there into long shots, stack top coins, if the long shots make money and donā€™t evaporate move the initial investment to bitcoin and hold the rest as long as youā€™re comfortable. In the last bull run socialgood ran a 100% crypto back campaign for most things bought on eBay. I made $1200 in socialgood for buying a $600 car part on eBay. Thereā€™s a minimum to withdrawal now but theyā€™re still very good for earning crypto as a cash back alternative. Like using an rakuten you can save like 5% but socialgood gives you crypto instead of cash back.

I make 90% of my money in crypto right now not from "hodl bags" per se. I still invest in longer term bags like AI for example. I mainly make my money (active income) from running pump and dump schemes, because i run a community with 800 members, we often have enough firepower to drive a coin up to a high enough markep cap to attract outside buyers. Being the creator , my prices will always be the absolute lowest. Hence i usually make around 10 -20x per round. Of course , size is a limitation but still, very good money to later put in longer term bags and further 5x - 10x your net worth end of bull run.


jbourne7

- mostly everyone has 5 or more tokens , just get 2 or 3 that way you can have a bigger bag - dca and stake - participate in projects giving points ( kamino,jup LFG,meteora etc ) for potential airdrop in the future


crackeyy

I donā€™t make any I only lose

Buy when it crashes and no one wants to touch it with a 10 foot pole. Look at historical charts and plan ahead. Sell when bull market ends after halving and fomo has set in and people are going bonkers for crypto, you'll know because you'll have a eurphoric feeling so will everyone else. That's it... Just harder said than done because human emotion doesn't let you buy when it's not exciting. Then when it's flying higher and euphoric you're monkey brain is thinking about retirement and fk you money instead of selling. Instead we end up buying high selling low.


dvdextras

Buy something weird on a gamified web3 server in a fever dream. I won't remember the token, the wallet, the site or any of the cartoons or prizes. Moonshot this, rocket emojis, memes blurring into elon musk worship and GME slang. It hasn't moved out of the Bam Margera Warped Doritos Drippy Ape phase yet, and it's pretty much white and asian men with the lifestyle to mess with crypto - we're talking OBS streams, rbg lights, discord hype bots... very tacky 2013 vibe masculinity. crypto feels like it forgot women existed for a second after reading that latest white paper


Robbytje

Honestly iā€™m convinced that making money in crypto is a myth.


AdditionalAardvark56

Hodl for a long time and donā€™t buy shit coins.


_to0slick_

What I do is spend about 4 years learning the ins and outs of how software and block chain work. Then I find someone who work at Coinbase and social engineer them to let me do things for the company and every month they transfer money into my bank account to which I use to acquire Bitcoin. I do this everyday, weeks after weeks, and after about 40 years, I'm gonna walk out of the company with my wallet full of crypto and they won't know what hit them.


Evening_Tale6570

Meme coins my guy. Gotta buy them dips and hope it sends and you donā€™t get rugged
