I never experience yet what biggest lost in altcoin but in small altcoin sometimes i lose.. i think i lost in waves when the price of waves when it release is 0.025 i thought that the price will increase when it new release but the result turn into crash..
So i think this is my large or biggest lost in altcoin..

Did you sell all your waves already? That was probably a mistake because it certainly looks like its going to be making a comeback. price was just pushed low to get rid of weak hands and now we can see some actual growth . Its not too late to buy in though , with the amount of support its got its definitely not a dead coin.

Satoshi is rolling in his grave. #bitcoin

tbh i don't recall losing investment on an altcoin due to it dying, but i have lost potential earnings quite a few times due to selling too early.
The most of such potential that i have lost was on litecoin,dogecoin, and nmc. I still made a nice profit, but compared to what i could have been, that's nothing.

I dont think i would change anything in the way i trade, because i prefer selling too fast for lower profit compared to being a bagholder.

One candidate would be trump coin. After the election it might just die too. Or if trump loose it will also die or if he won and after his term it will soon die. It should die anyway along with donald if possible.

Anyway no matter what happen surely will die,should we dump?

Wait til its worth of course, if you find its enough for you that 1 trumpcoin is equal to $1 then dump it. It may reach $5 later so maybe you have to wait still until the right time. It might rise good right before election.

I would have to say it was during an experimental new wallet, algorithm & currency, the wallet was an auto updater with wallet.dat hidden inside the folders unlike normal altcoins.

I mistakenly deleted it when applying the new update and lost all of the coins..... Turns out a few days later those amount of coins I had were around 1.5 BTC worth !

I tried everything to get them back but the more I tried the more I got depressed, I took it as a lesson learnt in cryptolife even for the more experienced.

Hey,

Been compiling a list of alt's that went dead over time.
Was wondering

-What is the biggest loss you have taken in an alt-coin investment
-What do you think made it die / killed it
-If you were to do that investment now, what would you do different ?

Looking to compile information on the rise of alt's and how it is changing the financial world by storm.
All inputs would be appreciated.

P.s - PM's are always welcome.

I lost 0.5 bitcoin to an altcoin because the dev scammed and ran off with all the money . this kind of behaviour seems almost normal in the world of altcoins though. It doesnt really bother me too much now apart from always thinking i could have that little bit more bitcoin had the dev not been a total scumbag.

Which coin?

The coin was droidz, It had various swings after the dev left and there was the possibility to gain back some of the lost funds through trading but the price finally dropped down to whatever its at now which is something like 50 sats. A new Dev has taken over it now and is trying to make a comeback with it so if anything happens with it , it might be worth jumping back onboard. I bought in at ico and it never went back to ico price after launch if i recall.

I bought this! Already delisted from bittrex,I bought 0.25btc and cannot withdraw because bittrex on the wrong chain after their doing swap.

Oh yeah, that was another dev that scammed drz as well, the first dev who created it scammed and ran off with the bitcoin then finally we got hold of a dev that looked like he could turn things around and then just as things where looking up i think it weas bittrex who sent the dev the old coins off the exchange instead of destroying them and then dev dumped them and took all the bitcoin he could. There is a new dev working on it now though so you never know, Might make a come back yet.

My drz already burned by bittrex this a lesson to me,I will find another potential alt coin and never turn to this one again.

Mostly I loss newer alt coin on yobit the price is crazy can drop to 500% even more just one day but there are also have a few good coin that can triple your money in a week.
Do your own research and don't listen to trollbox can save you from scams

You must mean 80% drop. The biggest drop a coin can make is 100%, which would drop it down to zero.

Do you know sub and spm? Drop nearly 10000%,I loss to sub 1btc just in 30 minutes crazy bot pushed down to 100sat from 1300 satoshi
