Can 100 bucks turn into 1 million?

I used to not believe it either, until I actually did it.

The day my account balance dropped to double digits, I stared blankly at the screen for a long time. Getting liquidated was nothing new, but this time I truly felt hopeless—it felt like I had no shot in the crypto world.

But it was those remaining 100-something USDT that forced me to figure something out.

**Stage One: Starting from 100 USDT, First Learn How Not to Die**

I set a few hard rules for myself:

- Only trade BTC, good liquidity, not easily manipulated
- Keep leverage under 20x, don’t let emotions take over
- Never use more than half my funds per trade, always leave myself a way out
- Take profit at 10%, cut losses at 5%—never hesitate

That’s how I survived for half a month, and my account slowly climbed to 300 USDT.

That’s when I realized: in this market, it’s not about who profits the fastest, it’s about who survives.

**Stage Two: Once the Principal Grows, Start Compounding Steadily**

With 300 USDT, my strategy never changed:

- Still only use half my funds per trade
- Keep reinvesting profits to compound
- Once a stop loss is triggered, immediately revert to the smallest position and start over

While others go all-in and then get liquidated and reborn, I just grind step by step. After two months, my account grew from 300 USDT to 100,000 USDT.

Slow? Yeah, it was slow.

But steady.

**Stage Three: Seize Big Market Moves, Focus Your Firepower**

In the third month, the big move came.

I knew chances like this were rare, but when they come, you have to grab them.

This time I adjusted my strategy:

- Position size up to 70%
- Set a take-profit target at 30%
- If I judge wrong, exit immediately—no hesitation

The result was simple—100,000 turned into 1 million.

No miracle, just strict execution.

No shortcuts, just sticking to the rules.

**Final Thoughts**

Getting liquidated is the price of recklessness; compounding is the way for ordinary people to survive.

Control yourself, and the market will give you answers.

If you’re feeling lost, impulsive, or getting liquidated frequently—stop, and rethink your trading logic from the ground up.

You might not get rich overnight, but at least you’ll steadily move upward.
