Tell your sad crypto story here (so nobody else has to hear it)

2012- i've helped someone to run delphi code. he asked me my paypal. I did not expect a reward. he insisted and gave me 1 btc =80 $
2013- btc = 400 $ i bought chinese smartphone with 0,3btc and ivested 0,7 in online rigs.
2014 i mined early xwc and made 4 btc (now = 7btc).
i lost 2btc in aurora project
i lost 1 btc in xc project
2015 i lost 0,5 in blocknet project
and i'm still alive to loose more.
the funniest is that in cryptocurrencies where I 'm smiling when I lose .
Nothing worth mentioning besides the fact that I had the opportunity to buy BTC for ~$150-250 each. What can you do.

Selling BTC at $13k lol .....................

Not sure if relatable, but once in a hurry, I had a friend who knows little (back then I also knew little) about crypto send me 500 EUR. In USDT. I needed BTC. I was using LocalBTC so no access to the private key. RIP 500 eur, its still suck, localbitcoins support won't help me.

Also when the ATH hit $10000 a few years ago, I had a few thousand in btc and I held it, but from then it went back for a good 25% and I panicked and sold lol. Amateur mistakes
One very recently where I withdrew 3.60 eth and some uni right before bullrun to buy some weed irl lol

Another one of me selling UNI airdrop for $3 or so and getting $1200 or so out of it(I mean its still alright but would've had much more right now when it hit $30 like few weeks ago)

And me spending 2BTC in 2016 when it was worth around $250, on darknet stuff weed and acid but I don't rly regret it because I knew 0 about investing and never even thought of leaving any coins on exchanges and stuff after buying on dnm.



Idk what else, can't think of anything tbh, that's probably it.
Funny enough, back in 2014/2015 i got sent alot of free btc, i know alot of other users on here were sent free btc also. I remember everyone had their BTC address in their banner etc.

Had 0.5 BTC when it was around $500, bought a stupid wrist watch from it.
back in 2013ish I did a few jobs here on hackforums, one of the jobs asked if I could make them a fake GTA5 keygen program. I did as request, very small program, but he requested that I have a video of the program, in the program I go through my directory. And inside my directory I see my wallet just sitting there... My brother restored the PC and I never am sure if I had coins in that wallet or not... I still question it today

I still have that video on youtube on private...
Had to sell my alts to use on a big purchase. I held for 3 years and said I'd only sell now and buy back in a couple months. Two weeks after I still the market spikes up. It's not worth x6 what I sold it for.
Buying All Giftcards For

when i was 15-16 i had 68-70 btc (in total) by selling CSGO skins.
The total back then was like 10K , spent all on gifts/school trips/clothing and helping my family with bills.
If i held them i would have 3M
One thing stands out to me out of many of my mistakes in crypto

I had like $10k worth of BNB @60c.
Think I sold it at 90c ,when my intention was to hold it for a long time because I knew it was going to blow up.i guess I saw the profits and in the moment I wanted to make sure I kept them , but doing that I completely forgot my main goal when I originally bought it.

Yes , profits are good , but when you KNEW it was going to blow up way more than the price you sold @ it hurts even more. I was young though & I was too afraid to lose my profits. Oh well, something I will always remember.

To be clear , there's no way I would have held it to its current price. I just know when I initially jumped in I was aiming for $5-10 and a long term hold.
with the crazy bullrun going on, I'm sure we have some more sad stories nobody wants to hear :)
Think I gave away about 100k of DOGE on here a few years ago

Hopefully by now people have learned not to sell your BTC, hang onto it, and keep accumulating. I sure learned my lesson :)
Staff will never reach out to you off-site. We only communicate on HF.
I had a long position opened when BTC dropped to (31k) and was liquidated and lost (8 BTC).

Most funny fact, I deposited like 5 BTC more to avoid my position get liquidated , but BTC confirmations arrived too late when I was liquidated.

3 Minutes after getting liquidated the BTC transaction was confirmed.
