I bought some shitcoin before the recent crash and have seen initial investment go down 33%. I'm not selling though. even when i bought it it was undervalued and i'm giving myself until February to hodl. 33% isn't crazy in crypto anyway, i guess.

but yeah, you just have to hodl something and make sure you get in early. i like to think i'm early on this but i'll see you in 5-6 months to tell you if umpteenth times returns are a meme.

honestly i think patience is key. i see a lot of coins get shilled here but they are usually when they first break out, which is the worst time to buy. add it to your watch list, and watch the price for several weeks. along with research that should give you enough indication of whether it's worth investing in and wait for the slow decline to the bottom. that's where the 10x-50x are, you just have to be patient

Best I had was a couple 2x on quick trades. Started fucking with only $50 because I didn’t want to touch what I had in other coins. Just wanted to see what I could do and ended up doubled it a few times never putting more than $100 on a single coin and got to $500.

Came close to cashing out at a 10x on one but price dumped too fast for me to jump on it. Wish I was screwing around with more but it was literally gambling on absolute shitcoins and scams. Orbi, Steel, and Dext were a few slightly reputable coins. I jumped on DistX and Falconswap at launch at good prices and decided to just hang onto them til their products release. If they’re delayed I’m gonna jump ship and keep fucking with the shittiest of the shit.

I've never made more than a 5x, and I got into crypto around 2014 after first hearing about bitcoin and how it mooned
Not long after that, I first started to hear about Ethereum on other crypto forums that I frequented, because I hadn't heard about /biz/ yet (not sure if /biz/ was even around during that period)
Back then I was too dumb to even consider cryptos that appeared to be innovative with a real use case/impressive tech behind it, so I ignored ETH until it mooned, while buying shit like Primecoin and Litecoin
I've missed out on other 100x tokens since then due to being retarded:
>XRP, in part because I fell for the "centralized scam" fud surrounding it. The funny thing is, I STILL tried to buy a suicide stack of it in its dirt-cheap early days, but got spooked when they started asking for my personal details. Back then a lot of people were trying to stay as anonymous as possible with crypto, and anything asking for personal details seemed scammy
>XMR. This one REALLY hurts because back then I actually realized the potential value of a privacy coin. Guess what stopped me from getting dirt-cheap XMR? The fact that they initially didn't have a GUI wallet for my OS, so I couldn't download a wallet to hold XMR (also I didn't use exchanges back then)
>LINK. I actually got scared away not only by the LINK fud on /biz/, but also the fact that it was shilled TOO heavy on /biz/. Even though I saw posts discussing the technical aspects of Chainlink and its long-term potential, I still thought LINK was a /biz/ in-joke to try to sucker in newfags into buying a doomed token, so I stayed away. Another hard lesson for me to trust /biz/ more, along with doing my own research
In order to make it crypto, you have to either be REALLY good at daytrading, or be able to spot high-potential moon tokens in their cheap early periods, then accumulate and hold for YEARS. I tried daytrading and was god-awful at it, so I had to learn to spot low-marketcap future moons

>> No.22308779

>>22308751
Now, I'm a lot better at looking for the signs of a future moon. One of those signs is looking for which tokens that /biz/ talks about more than most of the others. And those tokens won't necessarily be mentioned as much as Chainlink was, but they will have at least one thread or a couple of mentions on /biz/ either once a day, or at the least once every other day (the archive site warosu.org is REALLY helpful with finding this out)
Then you have to see if the token has a low enough marketcap/total supply and see if the price appears to have bottomed out. Then you have to research its tech/long term potential, usually you'll see this through paragraphs-long posts by more big-brained anons shilling the token. And most importantly you have to read up on any detailed fud that /biz/ drops on it; ignore short drive-by fud like "it's a chink scam". Any fud that's at least 3 sentences long on here is worth researching to see if it's valid; also pay attention to anons who respond to the fud. Do they refute the fud with facts, or do they only reply with dismissive things like "you had 2 years to accumulate" and "still not selling, faggot"? If it's the latter, then the fud is likely legit and if the concern brought about by the fud is a big enough one, then it's likely a crypto to skip
After heavy research, I currently have three cryptos which are low-marketcap/haven't mooned, but are also innovative projects that have been frequently discussed on /biz/ and also have a reasonable amount of fud against them - but none of which are major issues that bring the token's future price potential into question. I firmly believe these are future moons (don't ask me which ones they are)
For the first time in all my years of being in crypto, I actually feel like I'm holding tokens that will 100x at minimum, and I only have to be patient for a few years at most to see it, if not next year

I’m aiming for $20MM as my absolute highest cash-everything-out point. At that point, not only am I retired, but there’s wealth on hand for my family’s next generations to use to grow even further.
That said, I do plan on profit taking when roughly 5-10% of my stack hits certain marks along the way (50k, 100k, 250k, 500k, 1MM).
This is just a larger scale version of what I did in 2017 which was to cash out at 500k total stack, and to cash our 1k, 5k, 10k when each of them were 10% of my stack (so 1k at 10,000, 5k at 50,000 etc.) it worked well enough. I never hit 500k but I did turn $1500 into about $15,000 after having taken out 6k in profits and finally admitting defeat with my stack in 2018 and pulling out the rest. Put that into LINK, which I sold entirely right past $60k total, then put that into XSN.
The point of this blogpost is to say there’s nothing wrong with setting sights higher than just $1-2MM, but if you aren’t taking some profits along the way you’re playing a very nerve-wracking game.

when people gamble in the short term and make profits its whether they get out with however much they made, whether they are smart enough, or if they are dumb enough to think their gambling equates to strategy in the long term. its a () honestly dont know what word to call it here, basically take a smart person, he makes a gamble, he thinks he is smart but he is also dumb at the same time, because what that person will do is he will further gamble in the future and lose it all, but a dumb person will manage to get out with all their gambleings and cant even get caught in the trap because he is so oblivious.

basically you take a scenario where something is in a bubble, take an objectively smart person, and an objectively oblivious person, if both make a 10x then the oblivious person cashes out and buys whatever dumb things he wants like cars and everything else. the smart person will have no reason to purchase anything other than mistaking his intellect for "investing" when it was gambling, its almost like he rewarded himself and foolishly thinks he was smart for what he did.

i just want to get back on track here and say gamblers do not make money in the longer run no matter how much you, i'm talking you being jealous, no matter how much you suck up and think he is better off. when in reality he will do the same exact thing in the future gambling. the mature thing is how to match stock market gains which are ~15% annual return and you can reach warren buffets age by being smart about it and actually learning, as knowledge is the key factor to long term gains, no matter what it is you do, whether investing in learning or the markets , you should not worry no matter how much you cry about the gamblers boasting, for he has nothing to teach his kids

>see what /biz/ is shilling
well /biz/ now shills EVERYTHING, every crypto community treats us as best and cheapest advertising platform so any fucking project can be found on warosu with various threads. All crypto project are shilled even before presale. What you have to see whether it's only low IQ niggers spamming new paradigm shit and copypasted technobabble or are there genuine anons with genuine responses. Even if they're FUDing, if they are doing it creatively and smart it's fine.
If only posting on coin is price prediction and uncreative brand-put-one-pepe memes with a lot of buzzwords I avoid it.

As of the whole crypto philosophy and whether it "should work". Even though im software engineer I have a little idea whether it should work or not. I believe there are layers in this fight. On higher plane of autism mathematicians and PhD shit on each other about architecture and math. The resolution of "high level" disputes will settle once and for all long term goals, philosophies and flows of MATURE crypto ecosystem, and whether or not it feasible at all.
On middle ground programmers yell at literal webdev monkeys about architectural flaws and incorrect conversions of math, possible vectors of attack and whether they can sustain "trustless environment" mathematicians crave for using a computer. Resolution of this disputes will give us working implementations. It's almost a working product but it requires network of people...
And here we are, at the bottom of this shithole. That's where we all live. Our disputes are eternal and are not meant to get resolved, but some of us would found intermediate layer between software and pajeets. Adopters of a product. The ones who take a bet on right philosophy and right tech is going to make it. You have to be lucky or have 4-digit IQ to do so.
