>> No.53672602

bought CL in 2018
Made millionaire in 2021 (GRT also played a big role, lots of people here were talking about it before it hit the market so when it did at like 4c, I bought a shitload with LINK gains and sold around 2.80)

So yeah I had like 1.5m. Was inbetween jobs and didn't find the motivation to look for anything new. Thought I'd made it. Wanted to cash out at 2m

I put 250k in fucking Nodle ICO (a scam which kept tokens locked for 2 years and released last november 90% down from ICO)

The rest I put in LINK

I am now down to sub 300k, got raped by taxes (paid like 150k CGT), and just missed a 100% pump in a token that I was going to buy in significantly in the next few days

I am fucking pissed, anyway thanks for reading my blog

I got like 30k LINK but the rest is in other shit that will moon by 2025.

I will make it again in 2 more years but the wait fucking sucks and I wish I had been smarter and bought appartments like I initially wanted to

but I decided being a landlord is morally bankrupt so I didn't do it. LMFAO

been in crypto since 2010, have yet to make it

didnt wanna go all in bitcoin in 2012 because couldnt get my money onto mt gox, simply didnt know how to get it.

started buying some in 2014, planned going all in but then spooked by mike hearn, emin gun sirer and peter todd all declaring it a failed experiment due to china having over 51% hash power, only bought like 10 BTC

knew about ethereum, planned to get some but wanted to get a ledger first, procrastinated on buying any

made about 200k by 2018, didn't sell, rode it back down, missed the bottom because peter brandt said 1k, started buying again at 9kish fearing I was missing another bull run, just held until covid crash, bought some more in covid crash, sold 70% of it at 7k because there was everybody was talking about how covid would kill demand and therefore stocks would fall off a cliff taking btc with it

now late to the bull market in nov 2020, converted all btc to doge, it went up but i paper handed it and took profit, shortly before it would have made me about 8 million dollars (this was absolutely the only extremely retarded move I have made, I can forgive myself for everything else but not this, my only wish is for time travel to be invented so I can go back in time and punch me hard in the balls)

bought various eth shitcoins, got caught in the 2021 crash, net worth now about $200k again, started buying AVAX mid summer on its price breakout, rode the wave up to $650k, didn't sell, got chopped up trying to trade it, managed to go back to $120k

Early to Stargate, went all in, went from $120k to $550k. My first perfect trade, sold the top, all cash. Decided to buy a "capitulation" in eth. It wasn't a capitulation. Back down to $350k.

My story is how to be a total fucking midwit. People have done a lot better. People have done a lot worse.

I know about magic numbers, 12 squared and fibonacci eh
I'll make it eventually, in fact I know I will so I've been living the life destined for me

>>53672804
it's not as bad as it could be, that's sure. The real retards leverage trade or try to day trade more and leave with nothing

Curious what made you think Doge would do so well.
