I started with less than £1k back in may and recently peaked at £65k just 2 weeks ago mainly holding LINK and some other shit coins. Have slowly watched my portfolio drop to £31k over the past few days with no sign of stopping.
Keep trying to tell myself that I've 31x'd my money in just a few months but I still can't fight the overwhelming urge to fucking kill myself for throwing away so much money, for the first time I actually understood what I was investing in and did my own research and actually confident in my investment and I'm now about to have my first negative month and possibly become a marine.. crypto makes no fucking sense.

bro stay strong
im all in on link, these are bad times until the 2 forks go away regarding BTC pal.
don't fucking consider selling or you will be regretting for a loooong loooong time... just get high as chill
Liam Hernandez
lol dude... you turned 1k into sixty-fucking-five. You're a straight fucking G. Don't kill yourself lol then you don't get to play this game anymore.
Also, you can't beat yourself up over unrealized losses/gains. If I were you, I'd cash out with 15k, save that shit-- sooo whatever else happens with the other 17k, you still made 15x your investment.
Julian Davis
Youre doing incredibly well. Just wait out the fork and you'll be seeing green across your portfolio.
Luis Reed
kek, seg2wit already has a planned fork

Nice bro. I doubled my money trading oil in like 2 months and then lost 30% of my portfolio when I tried getting into stocks. Took me a year to make back that 30%.
I recently got back into trading natural gas futures and am up 15% in the past 2 weeks.
My suggestion is to stay in your area of expertise and press on brother. The gains will be unreal.
I also made a lot with mining shitcoins and botting in Runescape. So I've always had that to fall back on.

You’re up 31k and you’re contemplating killing yourself? You’re not cut out for this if you can’t handle being down...even though you’re up on your intial investment....
Matthew Scott
I'm down from 30k to 15k, also due to LINK, I'm still up from
Joshua Cook
I made 100k this year off NOTHING except a computer made for gaming also used to mine shitcoins. I lost 40k this week atleast.
I feel bad for not making 6 figures
Luis Morales
user. i made 200k from cents and now im down to 165k and feel like fucking killing myself.
i thought its only me who is fucked in the head. glad to read this thread
Kayden Young
What are your specs and what did you mine? Congrats on your gains, keep up the good work!
Connor Smith
i bought a powercolor rx480 last december to play the witcher 3 on high graffix mode
ended up mining ZEC at the start of the year and market dumping it from .2 BTC which ended up being all time highs and I made like 1 btc through february because of it. after that I mainly mined ETH then ETC as the payouts grew low, I made ~.2 ETH a month for a while and the march ETF decision breaking the BTC/ETH peg made me another huge chunk of cash
then I went all in on bitbean in april. then I dumped bitbean at 300 sat and bought PIE at 12-20 sat, making another 50x
along the way I've made some pretty alright gains but I'll say bitbean and pie literally made me wealthy ever since my mining returns dried up
Aaron Mitchell
I bought 180 eth for $20, not $20 each, just $20. Also I had 3.5 btc for $300
I sold like the week or so after because I had to pay rent and ciggies and fucked off for 2 years, came back and saw ETH was ~$350 and bitcoin was $3k
kill me
Carter Sullivan
>buying cigs with bitcoins >wonders why he's poor
You learned that having subhuman habits and being unable to think long term like your white ancestors makes you poor
James Garcia
actually I'm crippled, can't get a job and obviously get extremely stressed because of it, I had no options but to sell even though I knew BTC was going to boom
FML
Leo Adams
crippled or full blow retard? tell us your story maybe I'll give you an eth
Owen Morris
You just got lucky. You re destined to stay poor
Jackson Smith
>no options but to sell >muh ciggies

>be me 17 >Dad buys me an elephant gun for bday >go into outback and blow the shit out of kangaroos >See a gigantic sabertooth in the distance >Run after the cunt, line up a good shot >Out of nowhere a fucking dropbear lands on me and bites my foot off
Fucking dropbears everytime
Christian Scott
I'm down from 46k to 10k because of bagholding ETH and recently holding LINK. 3k principal. You're hardly alone in these tribulations.
Connor Lopez
Ok parts of that story did not happen.
Just a problem with my leg which can't be fixed is all I cbf going into details for an eth tease
Owen Howard
Yeah champ a $15 pack of ciggies is really going to help pay $800 in rent, nice one.
Also I have quit since then
Thomas Cruz
at least you didnt hold litecoin
Charles Butler
user, dont be stupid. My original investment was $1000AUD, two times my money with OMG in Sep, held through the dip and I am back to my original investment.
You are doing great compared.
Michael Rogers
Started with £150 bought at various points since end of june. Still have £150, hahahha. Went up to £240 at one point. Now what, I make an equal amount of bad decisions as good ones.
Jaxson Rivera
>complaining about a %3100 increase
Mason Edwards
I started with $300 in May. Doubled my investment to $600 when that shit hit 11, only sold 50% at 11. Since then kept buying shit, my porfolio is garbage.
I'm in such a shithole im not even sure if I'm in profits anymore, because I keep reinvesting profits. And on some coins I'm down 50, 70, 80$
3100% profit is fucking insane
Christian Taylor

Sometimes i feel like just ending it. i have invested 10k into crypto and now am at 20k. in 4 years will crypto make my debt disappear?
