Spicy Fish is served on the table, the red oil boiling hot, and the aroma straight into your nose. The first chopstick is okay, with the Sichuan peppercorn aroma mild, and the spiciness gradually spreading. By the time you realize it, your tongue is already burning hot, and your forehead starts to sweat. You want to put down the chopsticks, but that aroma pulls you back. Clearly, you're grimacing from the heat and inhaling, yet you keep sending one chopstick after another into your mouth.



The market trend in the crypto world is no different. When there’s a little fluctuation at first, you can stay calm, thinking "It's nothing, just normal adjustments." But when the real plunge comes? Your account instantly turns red, and your heartbeat speeds up. The hardest part is that every time you think about exiting, the market rebounds again. Oh, the irony—what was fear just moments ago suddenly turns into anticipation, and you impulsively glance at the K-line a few more times.

The severity of spicy fish isn’t in knocking you out with one bite, but in the cumulative effect bite after bite, eventually making your lips numb and your stomach burn, yet you still remember that flavor. The same applies to the crypto market—it's not about a day or two of judgment, but about patience and mental resilience through repeated trials. No matter how spicy the market gets, it must be digested slowly, enduring while moving forward.

The spicy fish analogy is perfect. My account right now is like that fish, being repeatedly cooked.

Haha, that's a perfect analogy. I'm the kind of fool who gets lured back by a rebound and keeps getting burned.

Haha, that analogy is perfect. I am now the person who is grimacing from the spicy hotpot while still inhaling. This time, I genuinely wanted to cut losses during the sharp decline, but after a rebound, my mentality shattered, and I started watching the market again. To be honest, the crypto world is a test of patience and mindset. Whoever can endure will win.

Haha, once again advising us to take it slow, but our mindset has long been dulled into numbness.
