BTC will be 9k+ in July. I just need to hold out 3 more months and I'll have enough gains to start having fun again like I did in 2017.

We were sold a line about free trade and cheap goods, and we wanted to believe it because we were all libertarians seven years ago. Now we're seeing what the cost of those cheap goods are. How can you compete with Pajeet IT techs making $1/hour, or literal slaves working in China? You can't. The politicians try to keep the worst of it from hitting our shores, but they aren't miracle workers, and eventually, the world will hit a global, economic balancing point, where we will all be forced to realize that when you have almost 8 billion people wanting to work, human labor is worth almost nothing. That's coming, and it's real, and it doesn't even take into account the dozen or so other factors like automation that are coming to fuck you on the double.

So what is left for the Doomer in a world that has left him behind? What do you do when the natural social order is attacked? When you realize that you can no longer win by taking action, but at the same time, you'll lose by remaining inactive? You become stuck. You become doomed. You're caught in the machinery of global civilization as it bleeds to death, and there's nowhere in the world left to retreat to and no ideology that can save you. All you can do is look at your watch and count down until it all falls apart - and maybe then, when you're with the men among the ruins, you can start again.

Maybe next time, you won't be doomed.

I'm going to die poor and alone aren't I?

99% of people dont know what blockchain is. I thought I had a chance. But I was too eager. Now I lost 90% of my wealth, and will likely be wagecucking until the end of time just to make up my losses

Life is but a cruel mistress...

my stomach literally sinks down to my balls and I feel like puking when I think about the fact that I didnt sell in January. Sometimes I lose sleep over it. I literally could've quit my job... and now I have less than when I started... Hold me anons

Has 2018 been a really tough year for anyone else?

Pic related has been me since January

Los all my money thanks to altcoins. Meanwhile the economy is booming, theres lots of jobs, all my friends have tons of money because they just put their money in their savings accounts, meanwhile im down 75% and depressed and have no money to go out or do anything, while my friends are all out getting laid or have gfs or are getting married.

Literally wasted the whole year sitting around staring at charts, watching my money go down. Wtf did I get so eternally JUSTed

Everyday is worse the last

better hurry the fuck up, I'm about to kill myself

Nothing will ever happen. The bull run is not coming in october or november or december or anything. Its not happening in 2019, 2020, 2021, etc. Crypto is dead, the prices now are what they will be for years to come. If you bought in Dec/Jan you will never get your money back. There's no hope. I will be pic related until the day I die, having missed out on most of life opportunities because I put my entire life savings into worthless 1s and 0s and memes, instead of something tangible such as common stock or precious metals

>August 2017: Get scammy vibes from dev team. Decide to sell and put money into other alts.
>December 2017: XVG moons. Would've made $1 million if I just held for 6 months.
>Present day: Down 90%, work shitty wagecuck job that pays barely above minimum wage.
>Get berated by Mexican that didn't finish high school while I have a 200k education.

being depressed isn't all bad, turns out you actually save a lot of money when you've lost the will to live from not going out/drinking/partying/going to movies etc. (assuming you're not hooked on hard drugs as a coping mechanism)

post ways this crippling market has helped yo save money to buy more crypto

>dont go out with friends to see movies
>dont go out to bars
>not spending money on netflix since most tv isnt entertaining anymore
>saving money on vidya by playing old games like new vegas or starcraft
>saving money on food by eating less/eating cheap frozen foods
>too depressed to get a gf to spend money on
>not spending money on clothes to make myself look better to people since i dont give a shit
>not spending money on pointless grooming products like shampoo or razors
>not spending money on health insurance since I could die and am indifferent
>get to put all the saved money into more crypto and watch it go down still, but its all good because either I make it or ill be found dead with my brains splattered in the gutters near some dumpsters
