Over the past few years in the crypto world, the biggest takeaway has been understanding a principle — making money has never been just about ability and knowledge.

When I was young, I also believed that fate was in our own hands. It wasn't until I experienced it myself that I understood: luck really exists. Relying on a few good hands, I managed to earn the wealth of several generations of ordinary people in a short period of time. And then? I lost it all again in the next cycle.

Such ups and downs, my mood fluctuated with the K-line chart. Watching the account numbers change, I felt completely hostage to the market. Sometimes I ask myself, if I had known the ending in advance, would I have still gone all in with such determination?

Now I believe more in a theory: instead of worrying about whether luck is fair or not, it's better to think about how to do the right things in each cycle. Those who have read "Liao Fan's Four Lessons" understand that doing good deeds, accumulating virtue, and actively adjusting your mindset might be the process of changing your luck. For long-term assets like $BTC and $ETH, patience and cognitive accumulation are more valuable than the short-term ups and downs of the account.

Looking back, true wealth may not be in the price of the coins at all.
