The character of the big man in the currency circle

Edit comments/notes

In the online world, we laugh at ourselves as migrant workers. We have no names, only symbols.

But in the real world, we are riders, teachers, flight attendants, screenwriters, financiers and tourists. ...

In the past 2020, we are a member of all sentient beings, and we are also a member of the same breath.

When ordinary people come to life and encounter an extraordinary "epidemic" year, we are worried, confused, moved and prospected together.

In the Spring Festival of the Year of the Ox, China Commercial Network specially launched the topic of "Extraordinary Epidemic Year". This seemingly ordinary human course reflects the extraordinary "epidemic" year of the changeable situation, and also depicts the endless soul of professionals.

If the day without dancing is a disappointment to life, then every ordinary and extraordinary person is making life even hotter.

In the past 2020, it will definitely leave a strong impression in history.

Since mid-June of 5438+ 10, black swans in COVID-19 have spread all over the world. In this era of globalization of capital flows, no matter individuals or institutions, no matter poor or rich, everyone will worry about how to deal with their wealth.

Panic has become the norm. On February 3, the first day of the opening of A shares in the Year of the Rat, the Shanghai Composite Index fell by 8.73%, and more than 2,900 stocks in the two cities fell at the beginning of the session. The same is true of overseas markets. In March, U.S. stocks experienced four fuses in 10 days, and the U.S. Congress even passed the largest economic stimulus plan in American history of $2.3 trillion.

On the contrary, digital currency has had a year against the wind. From the skyrocketing at the beginning of the year to the tragedy of 3 12, bitcoin once fell below the price of $4,000. With the repair of time, it re-entered the upward trend and entered the first year of DeFi. At the end of the year, Bitcoin ushered in a big outbreak. At the beginning of 202 1, the price rushed to $40,000, pushing the currency circle further. It seems that even the old leek has begun to call for a bull market.

So, will people in the currency circle really make money in 2020?

1998-born trader: The trading profit exceeds 100 million.

"I want to introduce you to a great man who was born in 1998." A senior currency circle practitioner introduced this to the author.

His name is Sunny (a pseudonym), he was born in 1998, and he is 22 years old. He finished his first year of high school. For sunny days, 2020 will be a year of restructuring rivers and mountains and making a comeback. After bidding farewell to the currency circle for 3 years, I returned to the currency circle and reappeared on the trading platform of the encrypted asset market.

He was lucky, but he caught up with the bull market. Trading in the encrypted asset futures market on a sunny day this year earned 1 more than 100 million. "Although my assets are only more than 6,543,800 yuan, for me, it is also the value of being a trader."

But now his insomnia is very serious, and he only sleeps for four or five hours every day, which is very stressful. "You see, now we are basically chatting at night." At the age of 22, he is more cautious and mature. "Although I had about 30 million assets in my hand at that time, I was still very cautious this year because of my previous failures."

On a sunny day, I think back to the days when I first entered the currency circle.

In 20 17, he just transferred from the stock market to the encrypted asset market. At the end of 20 16, digital currency such as Bitcoin began to enter the public eye.

20 17 can also be called the first bull market in the confidential asset market. Unfortunately, it began to slump in the second half of 20 18, and then it was another bull market at the end of 2020, and the sunny day just passed a cycle.

"At the beginning of 20 18, many major events happened in the money market, and the market was crazy. I earned the first million in my life. "

Unfortunately, in February, 2065438+2008, I listened to my friend's words on a sunny day and thought that Bitcoin would plummet. I tried to short, but I ended up short. In five or six days, I lost 20 million to 30 million on a sunny day.

The highest short profit is only 100%, but there is no upper limit for losses. In 20 18, Sunny not only failed to invest, but also was cheated by her own "partner" and ran away directly.

"That was my most collapse. I went bankrupt and even thought about suicide. " For example, on a sunny day.

But he didn't give up on a sunny day. He kept turning over his past experiences, opened a Weibo and told his own experiences. "One day, suddenly someone was willing to give me start-up funds, which was a turning point in my mentality."

I started to set up my own charging group on a sunny day, because a large family in the group gave me some good investment advice. "He gave me a bitcoin, plus other income I earned, and I had a chance to turn over. With this bitcoin, I have turned over dozens of times. "

Looking back on 2020, Sunny said, "For me, 2020 is a year to prove myself and a magical year. Looking forward to 202 1, I think there will still be some opportunities in the currency circle. After all, the Fed is still printing money. The advice to people in the currency circle is that this market is full of risks and opportunities, and sometimes it is hell to think of heaven. "

New media people watching the ups and downs: the big bull market didn't make money.

"A lot of things can't be done from God's point of view, only to think about it. There is no if in this world. 20 18, everyone is at a loss. At that time, many people even doubted whether this industry would be gone in the future. Similarly, the same is true of the big bull market in 2020. " Xiao Lizi (a pseudonym) expressed her feelings this year.

According to a small description, he also entered this circle on 20 17. "I've been firing digital currency for more than three years. I came into contact with digital currency from 20 17 to 12, and a company in charge of the new media sector entered the blockchain. "

Xiao also witnessed the fiery and even crazy currency circle. "The fire broke out on 20 17. At that time, ICO (initial token issuance) was very popular. To put it bluntly, traditional companies have to make their own companies to a certain scale before they can go public. The ICO of the currency circle is to raise money in the market as long as they have ideas and write a white paper. "

"By the time of the 20 18 bear market, many projects ended in zero."

Xiao Lizi said that he didn't make any money in 2020. "It may also be related to the bear market when I entered this industry. I have never experienced a big bull market and my thoughts are conservative. The general trend came. When I saw a little rise, I thought it would not rise, and then I began to short against the trend, and the loss was very serious. "

Xiao Lizi didn't think much about the trend of 202 1 digital currency, but thought that the bull market would not end so soon, because in the past, the bull market was mainly driven by Bitcoin. "They are purely pursuing profits, and the cycle of opening-selling-shipping is like this."

When talking about whether digital currency is collectible, Xiao Lizi said, "I don't have much confidence in digital currency. I position it as a speculative commodity. However, I left some bitcoins. I won't sell it whether it goes up or down. I will leave them as a collection for my children. Maybe it is really10 million yuan. "

Unemployed people who are determined to leave: they just missed the so-called "bull market"

"Oh, I ran before the bull market. Now I think I might break my thigh. "

For Xiaoxue (a pseudonym), the coin circle in 2020 is like a dream. She is 25 years old and used to do investment-related work in the primary market. "Later, my leader brought himself into the currency circle, and I thought this thing was really amazing."

Xiaoxue came into contact with digital currency on 20 18, when she joined a financial media company. "I'm afraid you really can't imagine how enthusiastic this circle was in the first half of 20 18. When people in the circle talk about this, they will make an X between gestures. "

According to Xiaoxue's description, at that time, she just joined the company, and the company gave employees an ICO quota of FT (digital currency), and she got a quota of 4,000 yuan.

She said: "Unexpectedly, FT has increased by 100 times in two weeks, which is crazy. However, because the quota of ICO is locked, I need to mine every day to unlock it, so it was not completely sold at that time. "

According to Xiaoxue's description, she was a little "irrational" at that time because of this fierce rise, and later she invested in the new digital currency issued by Fcoin. "But the new disk, basically no one answered, hahahahahaha, lost."

Xiaoxue did not give up the idea of getting rich in the currency circle, and then bought ether coins and bitcoin intermittently. "But I can't see the hope of making a fortune, especially when Bitcoin plummeted in the first half of last year, I completely hollowed out and fled."

"However, what I didn't expect was that there was a big bull market after the plunge. Perhaps, without faith, you can't make money in the currency circle. " She said.

On 202 1, when talking about his views on digital currency, Xiaoxue felt that he might never return to this circle. "I don't believe in Bitcoin and I don't believe in anything else. Maybe the future trend will fluctuate, maybe it will rise, but I don't care. I decided to invest in the arms of the stock market! "

Roc Chen (a pseudonym), a senior practitioner in the currency circle, told the author that there are too many people who have stories in the currency circle. "Every industry will gain and lose. You can't draw any conclusions because of one or two bull markets and bear markets. "

Time will never stop because of anything, and the story of the currency circle continues. For Roc Chen, although there are successes and failures, the trend has not stopped. Digital currency is not only an opportunity in the eyes of money, but also a destiny brought to mankind by science and technology. His eyes are not only in 202 1 year.

Roc Chen said: "digital currency is a big trend, just like the significance of unifying the currency in the Qin Dynasty. Maybe one day the whole world will use the same digital currency (BTC), and global circulation and blockchain technology will also be the future of mankind, because I firmly believe that technology and technology are the ultimate mysteries of the universe. To quote Musk, human beings will go out of the earth, settle on Mars and use dogecoin. "
