Here's something most people don't realize: scaling from $100k to $1 million in crypto is actually simpler than grinding from zero to $10k.



Why? Because once you've got capital on the table, compounding gets real. You're playing with market movements that actually matter. Entry psychology shifts too—you're thinking in percentages, not emotional swings.

The early grind is brutal. Every loss stings harder. Every decision feels do-or-die. You're fighting market noise with minimal cushion.

But by $100k? You understand the game. You've survived volatility. Risk management isn't theory anymore—it's muscle memory. You take calculated positions. Volatility becomes your tool, not your enemy.

The gap between zero and ten grand tests your nerve. The gap between six figures and seven tests your strategy. One breaks people. The other just requires patience and discipline.

nah this is backwards tho... the psych trap at 100k is way worse than people admit. you start thinking you "figured it out" then one bad leverage play wipes 60% in 48hrs. seen it happen empirically speaking

That's right, essentially it's a watershed moment of mindset and cognition. In the early stages, it's really a battle with one's own greed...

That's right, the early stages are indeed the most agonizing... I am the one who was tortured from zero to ten thousand, to the point of doubting life.

NGL, this view is a bit absolute. The mental preparation from 0 to 10,000 is the real hell... Once you get through it, the rest is just a game of compound interest.

That's right, the initial amount of money was really the hardest, and my mindset was completely shattered.

That's right, this is the power of capital... The initial amount of money really can't do much, and it just becomes exhausting.
