We all hear people posting about retiring early off Bitcoin and riding rocketships to the moon and making thousands in minutes.

Lets hear about some epic fails. Did you buy an All Time High? Did you leverage BTC just as it reversed?

/bad beat/ general.

If I buy back in now I'll lose about 40 ETH

I transferred 18.2 bitcoins into BTC-e a week before it went down. Currently worth $61,311 including the BCC.

Man that suck if you aren't lying.

Cryptsy stole $15k from me and it bothers me daily even after a good trade. I don't think it'll ever NOT bother me.

Lost ~ 2.5 btc on cryptsy when it disappeared, ~1000$. Got mad at crypto and cashed out the bitcoin I had on my personal wallet. Thought it was total bull sh*t. Had dreams of being rich.Lost xrp too when it was fractions of a penny. I don't know how much ~$50, but worth way more now that it is ~.20cents. Was able to get my ethereum off though 550eth. (In the days before cryptsy vanished all btc transactions sat pending, but you could move other coins). Almost gave up on crypto, just watched and held eth. Sold eth at 350 and 250, for btc and $. Also sold my bcc. Feels good. Don't fall for the hodl meme, I don't day trade. I just keep up on what's going on and shuffle things around when necessary.

Yeah I transferred thousands of LTC to convert into the 18.2 BTC. I knew I should have immediately transferred it to my own wallet but I kept putting it off incase there's any sudden movements before the fork.
