Topic: My feelings after 11 years with crypto. - page 13. (Read 3447 times)
Op, being an early investor doesn't guarantee profits if you're being reckless about it. Investing all savings and quitting the job that gives a stable source of income just to buy (mine?) Bitcoin was a very dangerous solution. One should never invest what one cannot afford to lose. I didn't understand what happened to those mined bitcoins, though. And you shouldn't resent that your friends got rich, and you didn't. Being rich doesn't automatically mean being happy, and it's never too late to invest in Bitcoin. However, investing everything is always too risky, so if you consider buying BTC again, make sure you have a plan B in case the price goes down. Everyone makes mistakes, so what's important is to learn from them and move on.
Hello everyone, today i want to tell you about my crypto-depression.
So in 2010 i was working in IT company and my friend from work told me about bitcoin mining.
Next day after this information i register on this forum and start mining coins, everything going perfect but bitcoin price was really low and unstable.
I was investing everything in gpu. Couple times i lost my fund's on scam-exchange but i still had a lot of "mining power".
In 2015 i quited my job and invest my whole savings in bitcoin, in that time i had more than 15 bitcoin's and gpu worth 20k$.
And after 2 or 3 week's everything fucked up, in same time i lost my job and my wife get sicked.
In Nov 2015 i selled everything but still i had -$$$$ to pay, so you probably asking why i made this post?
Now after 6 years i have biggest depression ever, if i only burrow money from somewhere 5 years ago and didnt sell my miners...
I have feelings that i lost my biggest life chance to get really rich and i just want to forget about crypto and work in normal work but it is impossible.
It's hurt much more if you can see that your old crypto-friend's get cars and houses from crypto profit, i wonder if someone have some feeling's as me.

It's very unfortunate that you had to go through such hard times but brother, you shouldn't get discouraged.
You did the right thing. You used your money when you had to and that's what we should do.
Nobody knew at that time that crypto would grow so much so soon otherwise everyone would have hold on to their crypto.
Yes you could have borrowed money but everything comes with it's own pros and cons.
Even I had sold a large chunk of my crypto in the past but I am not discouraged because we are still in it.
You can still buy some crypto and hold on to it for a few years to get some decent profits.
It's really sad but there's nothing to be disappointed about nothing is finished in crypto yet you can start investing anew if you want. If he had invested then he would have doubled the profit at the rate at which currencies are pumping with the current demand for crypto now is the right time to hold the coins altcoins are in a better position with currencies like bitcoin and ethereum. Don't be discouraged cool your mind and move forward with positive thinking the price of currencies will pump more.

that is your biggest failure and you get a very valuable experience that investing in bitcoin in the long term must be very profitable.
From the story you tell, I can see that you have great love for your wife, you want to do everything to save your wife, I think you are one of the lucky people who saved your wife's life. I suggest you don't regret it because the life of your wife is very important compared to wealth.
Yep he didnt even read my post and make offensive comment. As i said i mined more btc but invested a lot.
Then there's the fact that almost all of your investments were wrong, which is a bit unbelievable if we assume that someone who started mining back in 2010 should probably have a few thousand Bitcoins at some point - but you've obviously had the misfortune of not keeping anything in your custodial wallet (almost nothing). You have to understand that people can hardly understand that someone can only have 15 BTC after 5 years of mining - and yet you haven't even mentioned any specific things (names of exchanges) - which would give a little more credibility to your story.
By the way, I read another unfortunate story that has its roots in 2010, and many more who recently discovered that they once bought BTC, and today are trying to reach them - unfortunately many will never succeed (no backup, lost passwords ...).
It really hurts man but just be strong and press forward. Well I don't think you are the only victim who had experienced the same regrettable opportunity being lost. Stay cool and invest in other tokens that are still at their beginners phase.
This saddens my heart though but I will like to ask if I can get an answer that why did you quit your job? many people somewhere on this planet have sold off their one-time investment in bitcoin at least if not up to five thread that I have read something related to it. Life goes on you just have to pick up from where you left it
You could be rich now and have a big house and fast cars same as you friends but you won't be happy and regret the times that you don't sold everything to save your wife from that sickness . if we are in the same situation we will also choose to save our love ones over money and physical things because they are more important and there's only one life .
it's hard to move on if you will remember your bad memories but you can engage again in cryptos if this makes you feel better .

In 2015 you only had 15 BTC after mining for the last five years? So you only had less than $7000 worth of BTC and $20k GPU?
Sorry my friend OP but you are not a person who started in 2010.
Sorry my friend OP but you are not a person who started in 2010.
You ask a good question, because it really seems that someone who has been a miner for 5 years should mine a lot more than just 15 BTC, but the OP still says that he had losses on several occasions on scam crypto exchanges - although then it can be concluded that he lost almost everything given that mining was much more profitable at the time - the first 4 years the reward for each block was as much as 50 BTC.
It is possible that he was also one of the victims of the greatest crypto tragedy Mt.Gox - but there may be a possible surprise for him, if of course he is among those who demanded compensation.

I feel sorry about what happen to you mate but know that you are not the one who experience loses. Everyone has there own regrets in their journey here in crypto.
I am a crypto user for four years and I do encounter losses too.
I may have a more than a 1BTC that time but I have used a half of that in my whole life here in cryptocurrency and lost the half.
I know this is only a small loses comoare as yours but I just want to remind you that smaller of bigger loses is also a loses and there is an infinite chance to earn that amount who have lost to you.
everyone has a past, make the past experience and the future will be brighter now when we correct past mistakes, if in the past we did not achieve wealth, now is the time for us to achieve wealth, I am sure it will come true.
Mate. Whoever was in your place would have the same feelings. You did what you had to do that day. You needed money and your wife was sick. You made the right decision. Bitcoin's price could go down. You wouldn't know that. Do not upset yourself, do not regret your decisions.
All of us here has the regrets just for example selling our own assets because we already has the profit that we want and another thing is just like you, you've sell your mining rigs because you don't have any money way back before and you really need the money in order for you to save your wife that is sick. Don't regret those doings because always remember that you've done that before just because you want to save a life and a life cannot buy anything. Always remember that mate. Remember that those challenges and experienced taught you to become a better "you" today. Past is past, your decisions before can not get back and change.
Regret won't help you anyway, better to face your future than dwelling with your past! It will help positively if you analyze what are those wrong that you've did and make sure to learn not to do the same.

If you aren't rich because of your past decisions, then it is not your time now to become victorious.
Accept it, if isn't for you then so be it! move forward and keep trying your best, maybe time will come and you'll achieve the desire that you want.Quote
Move forward, buddy. There are many great new doors for you to become successful. If mining aren't your forte, choose other fields that will help you to gain more.
Try to explore and never to lose hope, there's always a good future to those who really keen in finding the right patterns in life, have a safe journey! 
Well, there are many heartbreaking stories here that can also relate on your situation right now my friend but it doesn't mean we have stop now. We may have these kind of hardship but life's goes on and continue to gamble again until we reach our desired point of success in the crypto industry.
We don't need to stop because we made a mistake selling our Bitcoin when the price was still low. Because I believe there are so many members
in this forum who make mistakes like opening post, even I also make the same mistake. So there's no need to be sad, that's the incident 5 years ago,
it's better if the opening post starts over from scratch. Because starting investing from now on there is still a chance for us to get rich, because
in the future the price of Bitcoin will be very expensive.
You better move on. Nothing to regret or feel blue. You had to sell it back then because you needed money. You did the right thing. Or else you probably would have lost your wife. Good thing you didn't borrow money from someone. You probably wouldn't be able to repay the person in time. Or loan interests might have made your life miserable.

It's not still too late. You still have your chance. Invest as much as you can. Invest what you can afford. Keep holding long term and I am sure you will make really good profit!

Don't mean to be rude or anything, but the Bitcoin price was low, you got scammed a couple of times, and yet you started investing ALL your savings in Bitcoin?? and in only 2,3 weeks everything got fucked? That's the perfect example of something not being properly planned, AT ALL. You had 5 years to experience how the early crypto scene was full of scammers and uncertainties, and yet for some reason, you still invested everything. And if you honestly saw something in Bitcoin that made you invest it all, should've stayed or at least left a bit so you can still use it to earn money (since either way, you'd still be under whether you sold all or sold some).

Still a pity though. Cheer up, at least you now know that giving it up wasn't that worth it, not too late. Not to mention the lesson of investing everything is a bad idea.
Dude, I understand your frustrations but I think you actually lost sight of what is truly important, which is family. No amount of $$ or Bitcoin or whatever can come close to the value of a wife, a mother to your children. You lost money and crypto, so what? You haven't lost your hands and limbs, your mind and body are still very much capable. Hussle more. What's important is that your children still has their mother and you still have a wife that will support you in your journey. Please do not take for granted the fact that you still have a complete family because some would guve everything just to have what you have. I hope this words wake you up and lift your spirit. Don't stress so much about something you have no power to change. Instead, focus on today and what's to come because you do not only carry yourself alone, you also carry your family in the success and misfortunes. Be strong for them.
Regrets are inevitable especially when you're one of the early adopters who happened to be mining the first few fresh Bitcoin in 2010. I've gone over your post history and I felt empathetic towards your regrets. Don't blame yourself too much as you needed the money for your necessities from the past. So, its time to move on and think of another way to catch up and make good profit in crypto space today.
Cheer up!
Cheer up!
