I once spent about 0.1 BTC on a 4chan pass.

>>25523051

>>25522107

Buy 1200 ETH at $4

Go into alts during 2017 bull run with winnings and get up to 42 BTC.

I have about 1 BTC now.

I could've been a millionaire either holding my original ETH buyin or my BTC. But hey, at least I have a shit ton of XRP and XLM waiting to moon....

*buying

My specific mistakes aren't worth mentioning, what's worth mentioning is that I made many mistakes, but I learned from them and never gave up, and now my numbers are only going up!

Losing money is a very valuable lesson.
Will you give up, or will you continue?

>>25522107
Worst financial decision was paying off loans too early and taking a hit in my credit score.

4 years ago when I was twenty years old I had made 12k off the previous bullrun, which was a lot at the time for a kid working at an ice cream shop. I knew The top of bitcoin was 20k, so I shorted it. But I used a x10 leverage to do so. the Volitility at the time completely liquidated me and I lost everything.

Oh well. Now im 24 years old with a networth of 300k. I really do think losing that made me the investor I am today.

Ghost. It seemed like a good idea at the time.
Fuck Josh!

>>25522107
putting 50% of my portfolio into XOM at $40 back before it shit itself in April. I made 30% in 2020 and cashed out but it could have been 50%

>>25522107
Not selling the top of NU

>>25522107

>>25523463
Anon I hate to tell you but XRP and XLM are never going to moon.

>>25523363

>>25524540
let's just say, I got into ocean before it exploded with a good chunk of change, and I now have about that same amount. so, it's not like I really lost money, but the amount that I should have now if I would have been skeptical of the marketplace, would be magnitudes more. I'm just hoping that they release farming functionality soon so I can get back in the green with that bag.

>>25523463
How did you go from 42 to 1 bitcoin?

>>25524808

t.me/microcraps unironically

Sold my 10k LINK stack right before Google pump. I was one of the people posting daily that I would never fucking sell too. Tried to swing into ONE thinking it would pump like mad on Binance listing like everything else that had been listed there in the preceding weeks, but it didn't.
Still up like 3.5x from my initial investment into crypto overall.

>>25522107
not buying ETH at 2 dollars even though I knew it was crazy I didn't believe in my own instincts back then and also had no balls.

>>25525713
I almost put in a thousand bucks when it was sub 50c, but navigating the exchanges and shit put me off. Guess I'm just retarded.

>>25523463
Holy shit this one hurts to read.

>>25522107
My worst financial mistake is not getting into tokamak sooner...im not paying the price of unrealised profit

>>25524981

I have 42btc in value in alt coins, the alt bear market and the BTC bull run has my portfolio at a 1btc value now; (keep in mind I haven't bought or sold since 2017, I just let it sit there since I cashed out a lot and didnt need the money)

>>25526325

I used to have 140 ETH in 2017, July 2017 I sold them all at $140 in a panic sell at literally the bottom, bought back in at like 170ish and ended up with 100 ETH, I'm back up to 128 ETH but I still regret my dumbassery, I never panic sell anymore

>>25522187
kelly criteria after you take out inital investment. That can be at 50% pump, 2X or 3X. Martingale on the way down. meaning drop twice as many dollars in a DCA strategy every 20% drop in price (from first buy, so 20 cents, 18 cents, 16 cents etc). adjust that first sell order for initial investment every time you buy. once you sell, you never buy again and look for next one.

Sold 1000 ETH @ $1000 last bullrun.

>>25523523
Based advice. Don’t live in the past.

>>25527964
>kelly criteria
i don't get how this applies unless you already have some idea of the "correct" value from FA or something

>>25522107

>Fell for the ethereum is a shitcoin meme when it was >$10
>Had 2000 XMR when it was ~$0.20, gambled it all away
