Topic: How much have you lost during this bloodbath? - page 15. (Read 1407 times)
It depend on how you define "lost". I'm down 50% from my portfolio all time high at the end of 2017, but still up 4X from my original investment. So, I haven't really lost anything, I'm just not up as much as I used to be.
I lost half of my investment,if i could turn back the time i will stick with the bitcoins so that i wont be trapped with these bleeding altcoins because it is too dangerous if bitcoin's going to move wildly and it could be the reason why these altcoins' price would be -70% or more that is why if i recovered investment i wont be sticking with altcoins.
I wonder how much people have lost money during this bloodbath which never seems to end. Maybe it will continue until the overall market cap is under 100 billion.
I bought Ethereum for 5000 euro in January when the price was 770 euros, and then for another 10 000 euro when the price was something like 900€. I also bought few Litecoins as well. From original 15 000 euro I have only 5000 left now, so i've lost almost 70% for now. I haven't sold anything yet.
ETH supposed to be one of the most stable coins but I really have no idea what I should do anymore. Actually I don't even care anymore if the price of 1 ETH goes to zero and I lose that remaining 5k because I have already lost so freaking much. I even had to put my house on a rent and move back to my parents for the next 1.5 years to recover from these losses if the price does not rise again.
Sorry for opening up but I had to share my story so I can feel a bit better..
Im sorry to hear that,you shouldnt be doing that because cryptocurrencies has high volatility if you arent into trading you should be more careful because you need technical and fundamenal analysis with your trades because you wont win trades if you are only using your intuition or if you are trading blindly,you can still recover from that if you know how to trade very well.

This bloodbath? 
Nothing, we all saw it comming from miles away. The writing was on the wall, every other post on this forum said "Brace for market correction", if you didnt see it then im sorry to break the news for you, but you are not fit to be in crypto.
In short, if you do have a weak heart then this crypto market isn't really suited for you and its much better to leave than to stress out yourself too much because price volatility will definitely kill you inside specially when you put up large funds and at the same time you would able to hear out upcoming negative news.This would really make your heart pump out came from your chest.haha. For now I haven't sold any of my holdings which means I haven't loss yet even I'm still on negatives. Nothing, we all saw it comming from miles away.

I lost almost 50 % of my portfolio value in this blood bath but i will be still waiting for the end of this blood bath i also buying some more coins to averaging my investment in this bloodbath and hope very soon this bloodbath is over and market will be recover.
It's unfortunate of you to have to put up your house for rent and move back to your parents. I hope that you recover some of your loss. If holding is not cutting out for you, then you could probably try to short trade if you have any extra capital. By short trading, you may realize some profits faster then when you hold your token. Of course, this is also very risky and there's a great chance for you to lose more of your money if you are not careful of your trades. I suggest that you find other ways to recover your loss while you hold your token so that it won't be much of a burden. Many may have been affected as well by this bloodbath such as you have but not so greatly because their investments only took part a portion of their wealth.
thank you for comforting me. I lost more than $ 15k. But this is normal and I'm not too worried about it. I know I will be able to make more profit because I have learned a lot from the bloodshed of this market. When you have experience, you will have everything. You will make important and accurate decisions, which will bring a lot of profit. even over $ 15k. 
I lost virtually but I won't count it as a loss because I am not going to cut my trades as I am positive market will bounce back and later hopefully I will be in profit again. I always think long term even I don't have any issue to hold my trades in such a hotch potch market. It already gives me alot. Be positive if you hold might be it can give you good return in the end but you need to wait for sure. Sooner market will get momentum.
be positive ether is gonna hit up to $1thousand before the end of the year ,then will stabilize.

I don't know if this is considered losing money because I have not touched my coins ever since the dip started. I refrain from looking at the prices of my altcoins because I can see how the pilot coin is dramatically decreasing these past months, so maybe that is a good indication that my altcoins might have been decreasing too. So yeah, I think in my case, losing money is when you decide to sell it just because the bloodbath panicked you.
I have lost 50% of my current holdings since bitcoin fell down below 8k but luckily I did not sell my alts at dip because I nearly sell all of it. In times of dip Everyone should calm down because being emotional will make you stressful
I am not opening my blockfolio any more, I don't want to really know how much I'm losing. But once you've lost most of your money, to sell is not an option any more. You just have to hold, and forget about the whole issue until the market recovers. It happened to me in 2014, I then lost up to 90%, but didn't sell then, and in 2017 I've got my money back with some gain.
The worst thing has been actually to see how so many bounties that I worked hard to get have lowered in value to the point of not being of any use. Other than that, I sold at decent prices before the big dips.
You haven't lost anything until you sell.
Do you still believe in the long term future of crypto? I do, and it has helped me to put the losses of the last couple of months into perspective.
We all know that crypto is volatile, and recently it has been even more volatile than usual. Your timing looks a bit unfortunate as you bought close to ATH, but it is important to remember that an all-time-high is only all-time to the present moment. I believe that future highs will make current prices look very low. In a couple of years' time you will probably count yourself fortunate for having bought in when prices were so low. Yes they have dipped in the last couple of months, but crypto is very likely to rise well over the $1 trillion cap threshold in the medium-term. Don't panic; have faith!

When you buy at $7, it doesn't matter if it's at 1400$ or 600$ .
P.S - Go for projects which will have value in the future, you'll never loose.

I lost up to 80% on some coins. Now we must wait for the big growth. And probably I will reconsider my strategy for the future - when the fall begins, maybe I'll leave the altcoins, and go into bitcoin and fiat. But I'm not sure yet.

ETH supposed to be one of the most stable coins but I really have no idea what I should do anymore. Actually I don't even care anymore if the price of 1 ETH goes to zero and I lose that remaining 5k because I have already lost so freaking much. I even had to put my house on a rent and move back to my parents for the next 1.5 years to recover from these losses if the price does not rise again.
Sorry for opening up but I had to share my story so I can feel a bit better..

Yes, I know exactly how you feel, in just a month I lost 40% of my portfolio. It is so weird, I traded stocks before and never felt so big portfolio loss.
Good thing I left some money for cases of big discounts on nice coins so I bought more BTC at 8050$. I decided to start a small trend for myself.
I have lost around sixty percent twelve thousand dollars hopefully I will recover it soon once the market settles down then we will be on the moon 
it's alright mate. don't sell yet. it's going to be alright. you're not the only one who lost with this downfall. i already lost 70% of my asset. i know everything will be fine we just have to wait.
