I've been tracking a large position account, and the data is quite interesting.

When Bitcoin's highest price approached 98,000, it didn't exit; Ethereum's peak at 3,400 was also held onto tightly. Along the way, the overall profit of the entire account has already reached 134 million—what does this number indicate?

Many people like to say that floating losses and adding positions are standard moves for retail investors, which sounds reasonable. But this account just happens to keep adding positions even when in floating loss. And the result? They have clearly taken a completely different path.

To put it simply, different traders have different strategies. Some make money through precise timing, some through long-term holding, and others by adding positions at critical moments. As long as the final account is in the green and truly profitable, that is a successful strategy. Others' floating losses might be part of the process of accumulating chips or a judgment on the long-term market trend.

So rather than fussing over whether the method is right or wrong, it's better to see who ultimately made money—the result is the best proof.

It's already 1.34 billion, this guy's mental resilience is really top-notch. I need to learn from this kind of composure.

1.34 billion... Now the logic of making a huge profit is even clearer. Holding positions without selling is truly a skill. Daring to add to your position during floating losses—this mindset isn't something everyone has. Most people would have given up long ago. Results are king. No matter how ugly the process is, as long as the account ends up in the green, it's all good. Holding coins and waiting for a rise—this strategy seems simple but tests your mentality the most. This guy is indeed tough. Timing the market is also a form of timing. Letting things flow naturally can actually lead to big gains, which is quite ironic. I've been following this kind of account for several months. Every time I wonder when it will collapse, but it never has. Adding to positions during floating losses is a common move among retail investors, but it might also be a required course for large players. Looking at these data, I’m thinking about changing my strategy. Being too conservative seems like it won’t make money either. It’s unbelievable—still holding near the peak, truly a display of faith recharge. The mental strength needed to add to your position during the bottoming phase is incredible. I have to admire that.

134 million, I really can't tell if this guy is a gambler or a genius, but making money is the hard truth. Adding to floating losses can earn this amount, indicating not all floating losses are death traps; the key is to bet on the right direction. This account is just ridiculous, holding onto 98k and 3400 without selling, I would have been exhausted long ago, truly impressive. Results are king, the process is all nonsense, as long as the account is in the green, that's enough. Holding onto chips is also a skill; not everyone can withstand the psychological pressure.

1.34 billion... I can't understand the logic of this number even when I look at gas fees late at night If floating losses and adding positions could earn 1.34 billion, I wouldn't have to track gwei anymore The psychological resilience to stick to 98k is incredible. If it were me, I would have cut losses and run at 92k The key is that their account is indeed in the green in the end, which is why I still look at on-chain data late at night That said, I still believe more in strategies that can survive to see profits Judging heroes by the results is fine, but the premise is to stay alive and make money Sometimes I think people who dare to add positions during floating losses either have a big vision or haven't calculated their costs clearly This account might have saved enough gwei to amount to 1.34 billion

1.34 billion... This guy is really incredible. Holding steady can lead to a win. Am I doing it wrong by watching the charts every day? Continuing to add to unrealized losses is easy to say, but few can truly withstand the psychological pressure. Results are king. There's no doubt about that; everything else is just empty talk.

Wow, 134 million. I really understand the strategy of adding positions during this unrealized loss... From a technical perspective, the MACD has already given a death cross, yet they still dare to buy in. How big must their heart be?
