Tthere are no doubts it is luck; and in another way you can call it opportunity; A newbie comes to the crypto currency market in the bull run and take part; ofcourse there will be profits. The consequences of not being knowledgeable about crypto currency will only start to come to play during the bear market. As they say; The profits a newbie makes in the bull run; if he fails to learn how to trade and invest; he loses it to the bear market or price correction
I think many beginners have had such an experience. I even experienced it when I first started investing and trading in the crypto market. but nowadays newbies who come to the crypto market are not new to investing. at least they know how the crypto market works to still be profitable even in small amounts and not get caught in a bear market.
