The rates mooned in the last few months. Usually when rates on a token moons compared to the others it means people don't like holding it or are actively shorting it, often due to some fundamental flaw in the tech.

I remember looking back at my old eth and btc purchases from early 2017 in something like early 2019, and thinking "God, if I only I knew how rich I was"
I put in $3000 initially but opportunity costed 1/3rd of that away by "trading" shitcoins, and then probably more by swinging eth
Never really lost dollars, buy holy fuck did I get left behind a few times

After looking back at what I had, I never swung anything again

I also stopped any swing trading entirely. It can get you the rope. But frens, don't be sad. The price in that time was what it was traded for and period. There were a lot more risks and obstacles btc had to take to get where it is. This was priced in. I hope you enjoyed your pizzas and drugs, don't be desperate about it. Just don't repeat the mistake. You learned a lesson others will still have to take.

You are all pussies blaming yourself for the wrong things.

I still buy drugs with btc, at 19k imma buy an ounce you know why, because it's going to re test 16k hell even 14k, it's definetely not going to continue skyrocketing from here a pullback is due, perhaps there is more upside maybe as high as 25k but then we going DOWN, you all have been in crypto for long enough to know this.
you all know it's the future, why the fuck are u not positioned, that's what u should blame yourself for, not because you use it for a transaction at a point where objectively that was the price of btc.

Bought some coin, 10 or 20 maybe, at a 2 digit price because I heard you could get some illegal shit on silk road. Saw some articles or read some report that put me off and I didn't want to get in trouble getting weed or other things posted to my parents house. Forgot all about the bitcoin and that computer is long gone, the hard drive is probably still intact in the local landfill somewhere.

there was that story during 2017 run of kid who threw away old pc with 10k bitcoin on it.
a ny hedge fund eventually put up like 1M to research landfill and excavate to find pc.

i was in that thread on bitcointalk. i even created a wallet ready to receive the 1000 eth (or etc, whatever they were) but i was drunk, and can't remember whether i bought or not. now the block explorer for the ico coin is dead and unmined, and the devs ignored my emails asking whether i can check whether i bought or not. it's possible that i have 1000 eth, and i can't find out.

You would have sold your 25 BTC for 2500 or something if you had held them.
If you throw away 25 BTC you are not gonna hold til 20k anyway theres just no way.

Don't beat yourself up about it. You would have sold it all by the time it was up 100x from your initial investment.

At least that's what I tell myself when I think about how I saw a sketchy vidya key buying site that only accepted btc back when it was just a few dollars apiece and never actually bought any and ended up learning more about it
