My investment experience over the past few years has revealed a pattern — the first half of each year is basically about trial and error or taking losses. The years 23, 24, and 25 have all followed this rhythm. The second half of the year is when the real profit explosion occurs, so instead of worrying about whether the market will perform well at the beginning of the year or how it will fluctuate in January or the first quarter, it's better to focus more on adjusting your holding strategies and medium-term layout.

People who have been chatting with seasoned crypto traders for years have all heard this saying: "A thousand cuts won't beat the first move." This is not only a piece of wisdom for playing cards but also applies to annual trading in the crypto market. The true profit opportunities are often hidden in the market rotations of the second half of the year, while the fluctuations in the first half serve as a filter and accumulation phase. Instead of seeking the psychological satisfaction of a "good start," it's better to patiently wait for the market to give clearer signals.
