Since the beginning of February, BTC's price has been continuously plummeting.

While everyone was crying and cursing Bitcoin as a scam.

A young man managed to earn millions of dollars in just a few days. Besides boldly showcasing his actual trading results on Twitter, he also generously held a red envelope money-giving event to give back to his fans.

This young man is Liangxi, known as the crypto genius trader.

Readers unfamiliar with the crypto world might be curious about who Liangxi is.

In fact, this is not the first time Liangxi has attracted attention, with his highlight moment actually beginning four years ago.

On May 19, 2021, a devastating day for the crypto world, Bitcoin recorded a record single-day drop of 33%, with many established cryptocurrencies halving in value within a day, known as the "519 crash". However, Liangxi rolled in to short, using 1000 yuan as principal to earn over 10 million. Since then, the title of genius trader followed Liangxi and became famous across the network, becoming a sensation in the crypto world.

In the following months, he continued to be liquidated during Bitcoin's consecutive rises. According to his own page, by early 2025, he had accumulated debt of 200 million, been cheated on, abandoned by everyone, lonely, and was on the verge of collapse.

After four years of silence, Liangxi surprisingly made a comeback, which sounds more and more like a web novel plot, but is indeed a true story about him.

This makes us wonder whether Liangxi is truly talented or just consistently lucky. Can he reverse his fate of losing more than winning in this comeback?

The story seems increasingly absurd, yet too real to ignore.

[The rest of the translation follows the same professional and accurate approach]

Because he was scammed out of a large sum of money by his girlfriend, he once lost control of his emotions during a livestream and directly announced that he would "drink pesticide and commit suicide," but ultimately failed.

Liangxi is also not shy about discussing his desires on social media.

He once wrote on Weibo about his way of "releasing stress," frankly stating that he "comes at least twice a day," using "physiological regulation" to vent the extreme emotions brought by high-frequency trading.

By early 2025, Liangxi once again pushed his love life into the spotlight.

He accused his current girlfriend of emotional abuse, domestic violence, and even "cheating and cuckolding him," and consequently "fell into deep depression." This accusation lasted only a few weeks before he posted an even more extreme update on Twitter, claiming he "took transgender medication for two days" to lose his libido, so that "seeing male and female images would disgust him," all to "focus on trading."

For the latest version of Liangxi, emotional needs no longer belong to his basic feelings, but are a "external interference factor" that seriously disrupts trading performance, which must be manually intervened to ultimately master the skill.

Making a Comeback

When time came to 2025, BTC experienced consecutive declines by the end of February.

A few days later, Liangxi announced his actual trading performance, and through his expertise in high-frequency trading and shorting, he accumulated over a million dollars in profit during this decline, and news of Liangxi's comeback spread across the internet.

Along with trading, Liangxi's popularity also surged.

He began frequently posting to celebrate his "successful comeback," not only releasing actual trading screenshots but also giving out 10,000 yuan Alipay red packets daily on Twitter and consecutively posting "precise poverty alleviation." He launched a "debt repayment plan," claiming he would repay all debts since 2021.

Meanwhile, doubts never ceased. Some believed he merely "bet on the right direction," while others mocked: "Liangxi is no longer a trader, he's the crypto's top marketing script killer."

Liangxi himself does not avoid these doubts. He repeatedly stated on Twitter that he is no longer trading for trading's sake, but for "redemption" and to "save the world".

He said: "Others become internet celebrities to make money and harvest you, I make money to become an internet celebrity. I'm here to save you. The Liang family has been silent for four years, and this round is our time to break out of our cocoon. We'll unite to fight against evil exchanges. I'll use contracts to make exchange owners go bankrupt, make exchanges beg me not to make money from them!"

No one knows whether Liangxi can ultimately verify "luck over skill" again, or if he will one day truly fall into the abyss. His experience seems bizarre, yet in this highly volatile crypto casino, it appears extraordinarily reasonable, to the point where hearing about Liangxi's comeback feels almost expected.

Reflection and Conclusion

Liangxi's story is less a trader's growth narrative and more a long-running internet experiment. He creates climaxes through repeated controversies, with each comeback resembling a live-streamed script, and each failure seeming like a plot point for the next episode.

Is Liangxi a genius trader, a traffic manipulator, or an internet "genuine patient"?

In his story, gambling-style high-leverage high-frequency trading is inseparable from his extreme personality.

Liangxi's contradictions might stem from his childhood experiences and long-term mental pressure, which are fully mapped onto his trading style - high-yield trading often accompanies high risks, leading to extreme debt.

The question of "whether Liangxi is a genius" perhaps never needed a definitive answer. He might not be the strongest trader, but is undoubtedly a "genius performer" extremely skilled at manipulating traffic. Whether showing profit screenshots, revealing family disputes, or engaging in various conflicts, he always manages to focus traffic dramatically on himself, placing himself at the center of discussion.

Is he a true winner or destined to be a sacrifice to traffic?

Perhaps only time can provide the ultimate answer.
