Sold all my BTC and ETH to go all in on an alt on August 31, because "btc and eth are hardly moving and there's more to be made in small caps".
$20k down the drain in a few months. Thankfully everyone in crypto except BTC maxis has those stories. >>25304885 is worse. Also I sold UNI at $2 and completely missed the pump.

throwing 8K at some stupid binance launchpad defi shitcoin (FLM) in the first 2 minutes of trading. I eventually capitulated at a 70% loss after it went straight down for the next few hours, without even bouncing up once.
