To be honest, I've thought about this question for a long time.
Can working in the crypto world really achieve class crossing?
A8, A9, is it a dream or are there people quietly walking the path?
Recently, I chatted with someone - Brother Ying.
She is not a trader, not a KOL, she is the security captain at Binance Square.
Yes, you read that right, security.
After many years in the job, she relied not on connections, but on pushing herself hard to find the most suitable position.
There is a sentence she said that I still remember:
"In the crypto world, if you want something, you have to speak up and grab it yourself."
But is life really that glamorous?
When the bear market arrives, the traffic is as cold as an ice cellar.
You still have to output every day and keep updating. The problem is—no one is watching, how to make money?
She patrolled while pondering how to keep the content going.
No holding back, salaries, year-end bonuses, and colleague relationships were all laid out for discussion.
After listening, I only had one feeling:
The 'high efficiency' and 'professionalism' in the cryptocurrency world can be an accelerator for ordinary people, or it can be a blunt knife.
Do you think you can just take off once you get in?
Wrong, it's always a minority that takes off. The majority are just gritting their teeth and enduring.
In the end, CZ himself also gave some small suggestions about the creative direction of Binance Square.
Consider it a little unexpected Easter egg in this episode.
So back to the initial question:
Can working in the cryptocurrency world really turn things around?
Brother Ying didn't say it would be over.
But she said a particularly practical thing:
“Those who can survive are not the smartest, but those who are clear about what they are doing.”
I have repeated this sentence several times.
In the cryptocurrency world, don't always focus on A8, A9.
First ask yourself:
Are you betting on a chance, or are you seriously 'on the job'?
