Well, I did it some months ago, and it seemed to me a very good idea, because I made a lot of profit.
But after the recent crash, most of my profit is gone. :-(
I resist and hold, but I have to admit that I'm very worried.
I hope this is just a temporary situation, as in the past.

I try to make constructive use of time. Of course there are traders who do day trade.But I prefer to do differently. I use most of the time for research and market analysis, study of new coins, chart analysis, etc. It helps me make the right decisions. I enter a trade only when the determined position when to buy or sell. I do not trade all day. I put orders for buy or sell and just watch the rates of the coins. About 70% of my time I use for market analysis, training and development.

I'm doing the same thing as you.Two things do not work together so we gave all the leaves.I have 10year fulltime time tarder.I'm at forex market 10year Study and trading, If you are a full-time trade then I have a consultation for you.You can buy low price coins for long time.Long term means  5/6 month....
There are stories of inspiration with us. People are available here even on this forum who have made these both works done simultaneously. Actually this is hard to manage, absolutely there is nothing wrong in it. If somebody is a job person and he is a concerned trader too, he might be living a very managed and tough life for his family and himself. Still praise to all those who achieved this.

If i ever be asked what to choose,i will always insist choosing both. I know that crypto is a good source of income, crypto has a promising future ahead of it. But having a stable job with good salary is not a type of opportunity that you would let it fly. Go to your work, earn some money, fill in your financial need then the extra money goes on crypto. You dont need to sacrifice your job, let your job's salary invest on your crypto. You dont need to focus on it and sacrifice everything for it. It is an investment.Choose them both

I just quit my office job to have full time in crypto world. I split my time of day to work manything: doing bounty campains, researching good crypto to invest, trading 3 - 4 times per week (not day trading) and may be next time i'll  learn about mining.
Anyone who has been off work like me can share your experiences?
I personally dont suggest quitting job because of working in crypto world, specifically trading. But I think you have a potential, I dont know though because you are just a newbie. I think it depends on your job but if you think you can gain more profit if you focus on crypto then it is good. But keep in mind that the income in crypto is not consistent and time may come that you will have more income in job than in crypto,it depends.

But how can you focus on of them if you do not quit on it? I can't think about anything that you might do if you do not focus on each other. Btw if you can earn double or more than your job, are you not going to quit your job? Or find a better job? You do have more times without doing your daily and with that times you have you can even start your business on your own. I prefer on quiting my job too and want to start a business with better chance of huge income

ayou are amazing, can do that. Hopefully I can catch you sooner, because I'm still a beginner here, I see crypto very promising. And bounty programs also offer good income.

It is not wise to leave your full time job just for trading crypto. As of now it is not stable and unpredictable. Maybe investing needs time but you should not sacrifice your job for it. Its better to keep your job, earn some money, fill in your financial needs and invest your extra money on it.
It is just a matter of taking risk and how well you are going to do bitcoin and other cryptocurrency, I do have a lot of friends doing full time here and never regret of leaving their job, that makes me confused as well if I am gonna continue my study or just focus here, well it is my accomplishment if I can do both.

I think it is not a good decision. Though working on crypto currency is more profitable than any other job but it has risk also. Crypto currency is on now volatile. We can't predict the future of crypto currency. It is better option to continue your main job beside crypto currency.
Yes correct, really not a good idea and also not suggestible to quit the permanent job for the sake of trading in cryptocurrency, it is advisable that along with the job can make free time to get involve in trading that could be good option. Why to leave job when trading by crypto can be done during free time. It is better to keep your job, earn some money from crypto.

You made a very courageous choice; if I look at the past year, even with the recent crash, I made much more money with trading than with my 9-17 job.
But trading is a very unstable activity, I have a family to take care of, and it would be too stressful for me to quit my job.
But, who knows?
Btw, congratulations and good luck!
As  a matter of fact I am on the way where in I am so much confused on what I am going to do, if I will leave my job just to focus here or just do all of it. I don't really know what I must do so I truly understand those having a hard time what they should do. But, if I have much fund of course I will prefer full time in crypto.

That is a big choice in your life. Deciding to quit working in the real world is a difficult choice. But I am sure that you have made the best decision. As we all know that when we can focus on a thing then we can get a much more satisfying result. I am still unable to do the same thing as you do, I still think that real-world work can make me feel comfortable in retirement, because of the benefits given by my company. Once again I really appreciate your decision and congratulations for enjoying the day as a full worker in cryptocurrency. Good luck !!
It is  the hardest part for all of the people who wanted to join and trade in crypto but still doesn't have enough time and they felt sorry for the opportunities that they are losing, but still at the end of the day it is up to us what we are going to do with our life whether to take risk or felt sorry for all the time.

I thinking also to quit my job and do full time in crypto but before i do that i will put a small business where i have a fix income so incase crypto market are going down as what we are experiencing now i have an alternative source of income. doing crypto trading alone is risky considering crypto market is very volatile.

really your joining bounty campaign?being newbie?wow thats great lol..and quitting office job ?office work is accessible to computer and we only need computer and internet to work here in crypto and as what you've said you only trade 3-4x a week because you dont make daytrading,i smell something not true about this.anyway goodluck in your journey here in cryptoworld.

And another thing,im also working at office but i manage to do both crypto and office work and together with my offline business

First of all, let's consider the factors on why an individual (like OP) leave their job to focus on the cryptocurrency aspect:
  • Focusing into cryptocurrency opens a lot of alternatives and options for you to choose from. You can either trade, gamble, or invest short-term depending on your preference;
  • The profit that you may garner may be higher depending on your past job. If you are employed as a rank-and-file employee, then you may observe that monthly wages are insufficient to provide for your needs and wants; and
  • You tend to have an advantage when it comes to investing or trading as you are aware of the current issues or news about the cryptocurrency world.

I have a friend who earns ~$5000-$6000/week due to trading his bitcoin and other altcoins in the market. But the reason on why he earns so much profit is due to his investments being big as well. He risks large amounts of bitcoin in trading while understanding that it might crash anytime. If you are thinking of quitting your job and pursuing this kind of service, then you should hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

I've been in trading and I must say it is really a good experience, I learned many things about crypto world. Now, I am trying to look for a job, and I want to try trading while working full time. I hope I can do it. But if I can't I'll leave my job to do full time trading again. I want to earn money eventhough you can earn bigtime in trading you are not always sure that you can earn, there is always a loss depending on your strategy, so I want to have a work so that if the coins I invest in gets dump I have the money from my job to recover from my loss.

One essential thing that most people take for granted as an employee is the skills, attributes, and knowledge they gain from work. This may be relative depending on your performance in the workplace but sometimes, money is not about everything. The thing with being an employee is that, you must understand that you need to start somewhere at the bottom before you reach to the management side. I know that everyone wants to be rich ASAP (and cryptocurrency may be able to do that!) but hard-work and patience are paramount for this to work.

Personally I wouldn't want to leave a full/part time 'real life' job. If you are bored with your office job, perhaps re-skill and go for a position at a crypto-related company.

Crypto trading is not very easy, takes year to practice the craft to be successful. Why not have a stable office job and then do your trading after work? Doesn't sounds good? Do you have enough savings to cover just in case you are not earning as you expected. On the other hand, there is a high risk of losing so much money because trading is very risky. Even if you wanted to trade, you should have made your own research about all cryptocurrencies and see what would be profitable
