Greed

>>7226818
Greed is hard to control

>>7226818
i started with 5k in march
had 350k at peak
now more like 200k
i figured that money was gone as soon i put it into crypto, i didn't need it at all and still don't. even 300k isn't a crazy life-changing sum where I'm at. so i figure my best chance is just to let it ride with projects i believe in

>>7226818
How does bitcoin dropping from 20k to 7k drop a portfolio from 3m to 300k? That's what I don't understand.

>>7226818
because the cashed out and then cashed back in, and probably took out a loan too

>>7226818
do you pull out before too?

greed

>>7226925
Maybe that poster spread out his investments in other coins that completely tanked. Just a guess.

>>7226818
Greed and taxes. Seeing a fat stack in a portfolio feels way better than breaking that stack and loosing 20% of it to your government.

Watch those burger anons leave crypto when IRS comes for its pound of flesh in April and we are still bear.

I'm literally angry at these dudes and hope to God they're lying for thread replies

The minute I passed the $20K profit mark, I was gonna start to cash out some to pay any outstanding bills and re-invest the rest.....then past $40K and I'd look at getting a new car then re-invest the rest; and so on and so forth

I'm an extreme poorfag with only a little over a thousand in crypto and I just got started a few months ago.....reading those posts had me shaking my head

>>7226925
Altcoins

>>7226818
Imagine being so retarded that you visit a 4chan. That's the level of intelligence in this forum.

>>7226963

Should never be that greedy and go all in all the time

This crypto shit is unpredictable as hell.....it could literally all come crashing down permanently tomorrow....if that happens, I want to be able to say "at least I got to pay some debt out of it" or "at least I got a decent car out of it, even if my lambo and mansion dreams are over"

Best believe that as a poorfag, the minute I start to cross that $10K profit mark, that "CASH SOME OUT NOW WHILE YOU STILL CAN, DUMMY" itch is gonna start itching like crazy

>>7226818

Because I don't want to trigger the tax man to rape my ass.

>>7227257

Bruh, after a certain level of profit I would GLADLY pay the tax man as long as it's not more than like 30% of my shit

I got $500K in crypto, and big daddy government wants $150K of it? Nigga, take that shit....I'll still live large with $350K.....extreme exaggerated example, but just saying

>>7227421
>its not like its more than 30%

thats where your wrong kiddo

60% tax rate
and not just on the cash out
on any crypto to crypto trade too

>>7227773

60%? And this is across the board for all cashouts? WTF, this is in the US?

Anyone else can confirm this? If this is true then my question was definitely answered. There's taxes, and then there's highway robbery

>>7227898
just type in bitcoin tax and start reading and reading

from what i read its only 60% if you held it less than a year, but the crypto to crypto tax rate is different, i think its around 30%, but its each time you make a tranaction

>>7226818
Greedy wanting to go from 100k to 1 mil. Only one more 10x didnt seem far fatched since we had already gone 1000x.

>>7226818
see we aint nigs we dont cash out to buy liquor, kfc and crack.

>>7226925
Altcoins dropping 300% in sats. Combined with sats being worth 250% less in usd so its easy to gain or lose 550% in altcoins.

>>7226818

You really don't know anything about taxes, do you?
This is the issue where you larpers show your true colors.

>>7227421
do you still live in your parents basement?

$350k isn't "living large", hell where I live it wouldn't even buy a small 1 bedroom house or a condo downtown.

I can't speak for most, but for me the reason I leave most of my profits in crypto is to continue compounding the gains so that eventually I do have "living large" money, which for me is about ~$1.5MM which I'd put into a conventional investment like an ETF or stocks that pay dividends (probably various banks) and live the rest of my life stress free. Crypto is make or break, if it goes to $0, oh well at least I tried, and if I hit my $1.5MM+ then I'm set for life.

>I'd look at getting a new car

Yes you are, and you will be

>>7228253
>do you still live in your parents basement?
No, although I did state several times that I'm a poorfag

>>7226818
Those that cashed a good chunk out are not pink wojacking and crying on /biz/.
I, for one, took out 2 million. 700 k in crypto now.

>>7228245
lol
>b-b-but its just short term capital gains r-r-right?

IRS Bubba: Nope :)

Invested in October/early November. Took out loans and cashed out contributions from my IRA. $45,000 invested. Wagecucking a decent job so paying minimum on loans is no issue.

At peak of market I had $550k. Down now to $165k. Haven't sold anything during the correction.

Once it hits $1 million I'll cash out $100k to cover my initial investment and keep riding up until $3-$5 million and then I'll cash out/retire and live off passive income.

lol

>I don't want to pay a 30% tax on my gains, so I'll hold until the whole thing collapses and my investments lose 75% of their value. That's called being smart! :)

>>7228889
Well played, anon. Godspeed

>>7229023

I'd rather lose everything than pay for niggers

>>7229004

No Bitcoin for me, fortunately, staying far away from it.

>>>>7229065

Thanks, anon. Turns out researching and holding, not daytrading, really is a sound strategy. I'm sure day trading has worked for some, but holding has done well for me.

Good luck in your own endeavors

> tfw invested 10k in march
> tfw my high was not *quite* as high as your high but my low is not as low as your low

am i going to make it?

>>7229023
that's only the case if it never recovers

do you really think bitcoin/crypto is dead as of today? that it'll just bleed to $0? idiotic. it has barely had any mainstream attention for more than a couple months. By end of year we'll see $2 trillion mcap

>>7226818

if i can turn 5k into 500k, why would i ever cash out 50k when it can turn into 5 mil...

the greed in this game is like no other

>>7226818
They are retards

>>7226818
>started with 20k
>ran to 1.01 mil for approx a week
>couldnt cash out cause tax implicatiins and other shit
>down to 300k
>still up 280k
>will be a multimillionaire end of this year

>>7228889
Nah once you hit 1 mil, you'll want 5 mil then 10 mil

Bought the tip..

>>7226818
How do you make more money with your money? All I see are pajeet dumps

Was at 320k a couple weeks ago. Now 125k.

>>7226907
to have access to 300k at a singular point in your life (and especially if you are under 40 yo) is a big deal, and definitely life changing.
you people are absolute madmen - i'm sure years from now you'll think on this time with a lot of regrets

>>7229471

$3-$5 million is my target. I'll keep 20% in crypto but pulling the rest to buy a house and live off passive income. That amount enables me to do pretty much anything I'll ever want to do in life. Would be utter insanity to not cash out when I reach that target.
