What was your worst cryptocurrency investment? - Pimping - Oct 10, 2025

Mine was any ICO i bought in 2017-2018
lost money on pretty much all of them. what about you guys?

Honestly, $TRUMP is my biggest regret when it comes to crypto investments.

MANA, in 2021 during the Metaverse hype, lost 90-95%, few hundreds of dollars, but I rather prefer to keep it than selling at this point. With the hope that the Metaverse will regain more attention with AI and Smartglasses

Oof, I definitely made some bad calls back in 2018-2019. Most of the ICOs I jumped on tanked, but at least it taught me to be way more careful now.

FuckElon coin by Logan Paul. Unfortunately I was victim of his pump and dump scheme and I ended up looking like a dumb fuck.

I thought I could ride this pump before the rug pull. First noob mistake.

Though I learned my lesson well then.

ETH

I've spent enough money on ETH gas fees to re-build the twin towers.

that's good that you learned your lesson.

I always avoided the memecoins, almost regardless.
I have bought a few meme-but-almost-not-a-meme coins like DOGE and Shiba in the past, but not for years. I made money when they pumped and then got out (not at their best highs, but before the dumps).

Where do you find new coins/tokens/etc these days Rango?


RE: What was your worst cryptocurrency investment? - Omniscient - Oct 11, 2025

Radix for sure. Lost maybe $75k total. Still pretty bitter about it.


RE: What was your worst cryptocurrency investment? - jcole - Oct 11, 2025

My worst investment was DOT, Polkadot.


RE: What was your worst cryptocurrency investment? - Yin Yang - Oct 11, 2025

30 K on Fideum lol. Idk what I was thinking bro


RE: What was your worst cryptocurrency investment? - Mewtwo - Oct 11, 2025

XRP.

I lost $10k from that. Only because of greed. I joined a pump group thinking XRP will go above $1. I joined in at 46 cents. It went around 84 cents. Could’ve cashed out. But got dumped tf out back to 26 cents


RE: What was your worst cryptocurrency investment? - Braco22 - Oct 11, 2025

$TRUMP, got in at $71, sold at $28. $AZERO, got in $0.60 rode it all the way to $3.30 and sold @ $1.20 (essentially not a negative investment).


RE: What was your worst cryptocurrency investment? - Plague - Oct 12, 2025

Took a big hit on DOT and didn't cash out when it blew up to $50. The opportunity was there and I missed it


RE: What was your worst cryptocurrency investment? - Lyralei - Oct 13, 2025

I already recovered but Radix definitely hurt me the most. I honestly didn't expect for it to drop down that much.
