New Year's Eve, a message to small investors and retail traders in the crypto world: May you stay true to your heart and hold onto hope amidst the wild rises and falls of the market!


Dear friends:
As the thousands of lights outside the window turn on and the aroma of New Year’s Eve dinner drifts from the kitchen, are you perhaps just putting down your phone and exiting the K-line interface?
I know that even on New Year’s Eve, your heart might still be tied to the market that never closes. Watching the red and green candlesticks, seeing the numbers in your account jump up and down. This year, we all share a common name: “Crypto Retail Investor,” or more down-to-earth, “Crypto Rookies.”
Looking back over the past year, we’ve experienced many “big moments.”
We’ve seen margin call messages at 4 a.m., felt the thrill of overnight riches; we’ve cut losses in fear, and chased high in FOMO. In this 24/7 global market, we are both lonely warriors and travelers seeking warmth in numbers.
At this moment of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, I want to say to all brothers still holding on: this year, you’ve really worked hard.
The hair lost from watching charts late into the night, the nights when needles pricked painfully, the frustration of missing out on “others’ coins” that skyrocketed—all of these, tonight, put them aside for now.
To us: Please give a break to the “imperfect self.”
Tonight, put your phone aside and enjoy a good reunion dinner. Remember, we entered this circle initially to pursue financial freedom, to provide a better life for our families, not to become machines kidnapped by K-line charts.
Regarding the upcoming market, as a fellow participant, I have a few heartfelt suggestions and reminders to help you protect this year’s harvest and embrace new opportunities:
1. About “The Big Trend”: Stay optimistic, but don’t “go all-in blindly”
In 2024-2025, the macro environment is subtly changing. With the easing of monetary policy expectations and the ongoing halving cycle, the crypto market remains full of imagination. The approval of ETFs has opened a channel for traditional funds to enter, bringing long-term liquidity to the market. The trend is upward, but the road will be winding. Don’t assume a bull market will always rise just because you see a few green candles, and don’t panic and exit because of a few red candles.
2. About “Position”: Keep a clear head amid the celebration
When prices rise, everyone feels like a “Crypto God”; when they fall, you realize who’s actually swimming naked. The upcoming market may be more volatile than you imagine. It’s recommended never to be fully invested, and avoid high leverage easily. Keep some USDT (stablecoins) on hand, like an “insurance policy” for your account. When a black swan arrives, you have bullets to buy the dip; when the bull market is crazy, you can take profits.
3. About “Altcoin Season”: Beware of “doubling fantasies,” embrace “core value”
In the late stages of every bull market, the most harmful are not Bitcoin’s drops, but those altcoins that seem destined to “100x.” They pump fiercely and dump even fiercer. If you hold projects without real application, relying solely on “zoo” hype, it’s best to gradually shift towards large-cap, high-consensus projects with practical use during times of good liquidity. Bitcoin and Ethereum might be assets that let you “sleep peacefully,” while those meme coins are assets that keep you “awake at night.”
4. About “Mindset”: Learning to “sell early” is also a kind of happiness
No one can always buy at the lowest point and sell at the highest. If you make money, taking profits at any time is correct. Don’t beat yourself up for selling too early and then chasing high again. In crypto, surviving is more important than making quick gains.
5. About “Life”: Crypto is just part of life, not everything
If watching charts causes you to miss your child’s growth, or neglects your loved ones, no matter how much money you make, it’s a loss. Wealth is just numbers; companionship is real warmth.
The clock of New Year’s Eve is about to strike. Whether you made a profit or broke even this past year, let it go.
May the new year bring:
Your held coins only have “upward consensus,” with no “needle stabbing” downward;
Your positions are always “profitable,” and your account never “liquidates”;
May you have both the luck to get rich quickly and the wisdom to preserve your wealth;
May you maintain the warmth of life amid the restless market.
Happy New Year, to all coin holders.
May you stay true to your heart and hold onto hope in this turbulent market.
On New Year’s Eve 2026, salute to everyone on the road! On the path of crypto research and investment, no matter how many storms ahead, A Jie is willing to always be by your side, forging ahead! Never abandoning you! Lighting the way forward for you…
