>>58445621For me: I got so fucked thinking the bitcoin jump from 38k to 45k was a dead cat bounce after the etf approval. I legit missed the bull run because I thought it would come back down and retest 33-35k.
>>58445621>see top signs everywhere november 2021>sell everything>get bored the next day and reinvest into alts
>>58445621$300 into LUCKY. Yes I've been a financial normie square my entire life and never took any risks other than shitcoin casino. Everything else has been fun though
Going to college. Twice. I didn't even get laid at college, work as a steelworker now.
>>58445621Selling SHIB for a loss early 2021. I was too fucking early and got impatient. Missed out on 6 figures
>>58445621Trying to swing trade throughout 2021. I made absolutely nothing when I could have easily 10x'd by just holding my original investment. This cycle I vow not to make a single swing trade. I will continue to DCA in and then once I feel the bullrun is nearing its conclusion, I will DCA out.
>>58445621Getting married
>>58445621I didn't sell during the last bullrun. I understood the cycles and all that but I think I got so shocked by how much I "lost" at first that I just sat there and watched it all come crashing down. Now I think of the market like the hands of a clock. Sometimes they're moving upward, sometimes downward, but if you just hold forever (besides some rare cases) you are just going in circles. I try to pay attention to the "hour" hand as opposed to the "minute" hand. Live and learn.
>>58445621Probably law school, and also putting all my money into BAT instead of LINK >literally could've been a millionaire years ago if I had gone all-in on LINK instead of BAT
>>58445621I didn't sell.Held Bitcoin for over 10 years now and haven't sold.And I am still a virgin.I WILL SELL THIS CYCLE!!!!!I WILL SELL THIS CYCLE!!!!!I WILL SELL THIS CYCLE!!!!!AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
>>58445621Not entering in SUPER early, they did an 12.7% in their first month and I swear I decided to not buy that shit in the last secondI got le mental retardation
>>58445631Literally me. From $800k to $20k. Ive wanted to kms for 3 years now. My mom always asks how my crypto is doing when I see her and I have to lie
>>58445621being a retarded child and buying video games in 2009 instead of spending that allowance on BTC
>>58445623Never understood people who risk trading their whole stack right before/after the halving just to catch a possible 10% move. You had 2 whole years to swingtrade safely before it was time to sit on your hands and do nothing. Why risk missing out on the bullrun? Makes no sense
AlcoholismWas spending like $80+ a week on beer and liquor for years
>>58445805I was convinced it was impossible for there to be a bull run now because of high interest rates + the imminent "recession" and also the 4-year cycle theory. I thought the halving was priced in with the etf approval and things would just trend downward for the next 6 months
>>58445811Were you not paying attention when SVB, Credit Suisse and all those other banks collapsed last year, as well as large pension funds in some countries being on the brink of collapse because of losses on treasuries? Central banks went straight back to QE which showed that the hawkishness was a bluff and they werent serious about fighting inflation at any cost. At the first sign of trouble, they turn the printer back on. So everyone jumped right back into risk assets because they knew they were protected
>>58445820I played it stupid. I know. Outside of bitcoin and a few select alts, there hasn't been much of a bull run though. Without more retail fomoing in, I think alts will continue to lag
>>58445820And a tl;dr for this: if the economy goes to shit, moneyprinter goes brrr, which is good for risk assets. The economy and stock/crypto market untethered a long time ago because of reckless QE. See: bullrun in every market during covid when the world economy was frozen for 2 years. That was the markets bracing for the consequences of central banks across the world increasing their money supply by 40-45%. And now we are seeing something similar, except the markets are frontrunning the moneyprinting
>>58445831We just had a 23% dip that you could have used as an entry though. Missing out on 30-50% of Bitcoins rise to the top sucks but it’s that’s no reason to stay sidelined and miss the next 13-16 months of free money raining from the sky. Bitfuck has at least another 100% to go and then you could always rotate into alts for altseason into the late stages of the bull to make up for the gains you missed out on early in the bull
>>58445759is not at its best, so I do not think it is advisable to buy in now
>>58445759>I got le mental retardationsame
Wasting about 1 eth total on nfts
>>58445621Sold stock to pay for a heating system and got taxed up the wazoo with Short term capital gains. Basically i owed 80% of the proceeds in tax, which is niggerfaggotly stupid.I lived a single warm winter though.
Being a weeb obsessed with Japan and moving there for 4 years. Salaries are not even European tier. I wasted all my savings and it was impossible to save up. The pussy was good and have great memories but I've realised money is more important. I should have invested all the money I wasted. Fuck anime
>>58445751Not selling isn't a mistake. If you were prone to selling you'd have made mistakes before now and very likely lost it. Those who are prone to selling WILL sell. The fact you're still here 10 years later means you're made of the stuff that lasts the course.t. In since 2014 also. Never cashed out. Now all in Link and staked.

>>58445621I lent $20 to a guy.He died in a car accident before paying me back.I will never see that $20, and I just have to accept it.
>>58446171I'd give anything to turn back time and just not lend him the money.
kinda in reverse chronological order >sold about $20k worth of wif at .17 for a big loss lol.>lost 200k worth of link on bancor>ghost with john mcafee dumpster fire>gave a bitcoin away to a telegram scam>got (figuratively) fucked by a lawyer after a false arrestand, with all of that, i'm up well over 50x of my total capital invested into crypto.we are all going to make it.
I fucked up and defaulted on $25k worth of credit cards in my late twenties. ruined an 750+ credit score.I turn 35 in a month and I am just now getting debt free. I could've owned a house pre-coof. huge mistake to debtmaxx.

>>58445621Probably the $150 a week I send to my gf in Thailand so she doesn't have to whore herself out.
>>58445621Not restaking my ETH when I had the chance. But now I made a plan to restake on Yield Nest to earn amplified yields without sacrificing liquidity.
>>58445737Why not stake and earn passively while holding, Anon? Restaking's emerging as a top narrative this year. I ain't sleeping on it.
>>58445724same
>>58445621I got into crypto right around when meme coins started booming, April 2023. I had $500 I wanted to put into WOJAK, but I was very new to crypto so didn't understand where exactly to get it, I was using Coinbase Wallet. Since I couldn't buy WOJAK, I had to decide between the other two coins I had my eye on that were available, PEPE and something called Doomer AI. For some reason, I thought the fact that Doomer was more obscure than Pepe meant that it would be a better coin, so I put my money in. I also didn't really know what gas fees were so I couldn't pull my money out when Doomer AI started nosediving.Long story short, I looked it up and if I had bought PEPE and held to today my $500 would have turned into around $60,000. Realistically, I probably would've panic sold after the first drop, but still.
Going to uni, definitely. -$90k in outright debt, -4 years of earning potential. Missed out on super early bitcoin because I had negative money from 2008-2015 (including years of unemployment post uni).
>>58445621>>58445724>>58450194Every financial mistake I've ever made had something to do with a woman
A couple years ago I used to look up to one self help dude on Twitter. He made so many tweets and podcasts on actualizing one's spirit, carnivore diet to fix health issues, and doubling down on personal redemption. All this shit really changed my life. It lifted my spirits and helped me overcome some bad health issues.One day he tweets that he's got a business proposition if anyone wants to get in with him, but it's $25k min. I dm'd him what it is and he replied it was a crypto sport betting business, but I didn't feel confident so I didn't reply back. A month later he dm's me and follows me and then gives me his phone number. We talk for like an hour while he tells me his actual name, where he lives, little things he's never revealed online etc. I felt maybe this guy could be like a big brother to me, a mentor.Later that night right before I head to bed he texts that he's got a huge game to bet on and needs liquidity asap and there's no way to lose considering the whales backing him up, that'd I'd be getting paid like 25% a few days later. I send him like 22 ETH, which was $25k at the time. Now it's worth like $90k and I've still never gotten a single penny. The guy always answers my calls, but he tells me he's now dirt broke and barely can scrap money or rent. He still even asks me if I can spare $1k just to help him get by (I'm not giving another penny). Needless to say I fucked up. I fortunately was able to work 3 jobs remotely and made all the money back within a year though and then doubled it all with crypto so far.
>>58445621Believing it was possible.

>>58447106>selling ticker: BITCOIN on eth too early>selling APU too earlyGoddamn it, are you literally me?
>>58445621panic selling, selling too early or in the dip, usually everything related to selling I always try to compensate with small gems in dextools but it's getting more and more complicated
>>58445621not selling everything in Jan 2018, taking the money and leaving crypto forever.
