My investment philosophy! How to achieve an annual return of 70-100%? The number of fans has broken 150,000. Grateful, thank you!! Recently, I have been organizing my investment thoughts in the cryptocurrency market and found that it is not just about numbers and strategies, but also a deep reflection on self-awareness. Cryptocurrency investment allocation is essentially a very personalized and private behavior; everyone's goals, risk preferences, and understanding of the blockchain ecosystem are different. I entered the market in 2017, and in the past, I have read a lot about cryptocurrency investment: mainstream spot long-term holding, contract arbitrage, DeFi liquidity mining, etc. Previously, I learned many methods and concepts, "stuffing" this knowledge into my mind, but I did not fully digest it, lacking a match with my own understanding of the cryptocurrency market and risk tolerance. So, for the past month, I have been thinking: what kind of cryptocurrency allocation truly fits me? Cryptocurrency investment involves many dimensions: returns, risks, holding experience... But there is no such thing in the market as "high returns with zero risk and easy holding," especially since cryptocurrencies are more volatile, and every decision requires more careful weighing. Returning to myself, I ask: what do I value most? What do I want to achieve through cryptocurrency investment? Clarifying goals: cash flow first After organizing my thoughts, I found that maximizing cryptocurrency investment returns is not my primary goal; I value the passive cash flow that investment brings more. To put it bluntly, I am currently engaged in traditional finance and hotel investment in my country, and my main income still comes from traditional businesses. I hope to achieve a monthly six-figure passive cash flow through passive income from cryptocurrency investments (such as dollar-cost averaging in mainstream coins, staking dividends, capital-protected financial products, leading DeFi protocols, etc.), so that even in the worst-case scenario, such as during a downturn, I can maintain a sense of security and confidence. Secondly, is the general logic of cryptocurrency investment returns — enjoying higher returns from long-term holding of quality assets as the industry grows. Thought process: prioritize ensuring the current high cash flow cryptocurrency investment targets with funds and energy. Long-term holding can be quite boring, so I derived my trading thoughts into left-side and right-side investment splits. I divided cryptocurrency investment into two categories: 1. Left-side investment: value investment type (mainly mainstream coins in spot) Approach: long-term dollar-cost averaging during market corrections, holding periods are long (2-5 years), relying on the long-term value growth of the assets and passive income, with relatively controllable risks. Examples: mainstream cryptocurrency spot (BTC, ETH/SOL/LINK). Additionally, after establishing a dollar-cost averaging plan, I will use idle funds for capital-protected financial products, which can yield around 7% annually. Characteristics: focus on capital safety, long-term accumulation, strong ability to withstand market fluctuations. 2. Right-side investment: speculative, short-term opportunities (cryptocurrency derivative opportunities) Approach: mainly low-risk arbitrage, short operation cycles (from a few days to a few weeks), strong experiential feeling. Examples: new coin launches, cross-exchange spot arbitrage, low-leverage contract hedging. Characteristics: obvious positive feedback, quick short-term profit realization, high sense of pleasure, enhancing investment happiness. 3. The overall idea is: After excluding high cash flow cryptocurrency positions (such as staking assets), the remaining funds are allocated to left and right side trading. On the left side: retain existing mainstream spot positions, continue small dollar-cost averaging in quality track tokens; On the right side: maintain existing new coin launch quotas, waiting for low-risk arbitrage opportunities (such as cross-chain asset price difference windows/or yield farming projects). Operational arrangements 1. Cash flow investment: Focus on existing high passive income assets (such as ETH staking, leading platform stablecoin financial products), continuously observe the stability of returns and the security of protocols. 2. Value investment (left side): Mainstream spot: BTC, ETH, SOL, LINK maintain small positions after taking profits to feel the market, quality track tokens (such as AI+Web3, RWA concepts) continue small dollar-cost averaging during market corrections. Long-term staking portfolio: insist on long-term holding, not pursuing short-term opportunities. If the proportion of stablecoins is too large, wait for market corrections to adjust to mainstream spot staking. 3. Arbitrage investment (right side): New coin launches/yield farming maintain current participation quotas, do not increase positions, prioritize projects with real-world applications. Small funds should follow the cryptocurrency sector rotation strategy (track rotation), without blindly chasing highs. Other short-term speculative opportunities (such as MEME coin speculation, high-leverage contracts) will not be participated in for now. 4. Idle funds: Mainly the cryptocurrency funds waiting to be allocated, temporarily not taking action, waiting for market trend opportunities. Note: The basis for liquid funds (daily reserves, mainly in stablecoins) and protected funds (low-risk stablecoin financial products) remains unchanged; here it refers to the personalized parts of stable funds (medium-low risk staking) and long-term funds (long-term spot). Emotional management During the process of cryptocurrency investment, I also experience emotional fluctuations (emo), especially when comparing myself to others who double their investments through contracts or see new coins skyrocketing — the volatility in the cryptocurrency market is greater, and these emotions can be more intense. In the face of such situations, I can ask myself: What kind of opportunity is this in the crypto space? Is it contract speculation, new coin hype, or long-term returns from spot? Under this opportunity type, is my position sufficient? If not, then I need to work hard to earn principal, rather than blindly increasing leverage. Is this within my circle of competence? For example, if I am not good at contract operations, then a contract surge is not my opportunity; I should not envy the results of others within their competence. Also, stay alert to see what information asymmetry opportunities exist in the cryptocurrency market (such as yield farming launch activities), which can be participated in with small amounts to learn, accumulating experience while controlling risks. By self-questioning, maintain a calm mindset and reduce anxiety. Clarify my boundaries and capabilities, allowing cryptocurrency investment behavior to return to rationality. Future focus In the coming years, important principles: Focus and concentration: clearly understand the allocation of my funds in spot, staking, and arbitrage, avoiding interference from market noise. Output forces input: accumulate experience through real cryptocurrency operations while sharing spot allocation and staking strategies with others, deepening understanding through sharing. Solid internal cultivation: focus on self-cultivation in the cryptocurrency field, accumulating industry knowledge (such as on-chain analysis, protocol mechanisms) and resources (such as quality community connections), preparing for greater opportunities in the future (such as bull market conditions). Gratitude!! Thankful for my self-summary, which has made my cryptocurrency investment thoughts clearer. Thankful for all the fans and family for their tolerance of my trial and error in cryptocurrency investment. Thankful for all the brothers in the dollar-cost averaging community and the trust and cooperation of my studio partners.

Of course, I have to thank #OKX, especially for the support from Xiaomi.
