Every people have their own regret.
I can tell for sure that everyone here ever had many regret especially for crypto things.

But one thing for sure , it's already past , you should not look on the back instead you need to look present and the future

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.


Well no one has the best or the saddest story of the bitcoin experience, we all have our ups and down about bitcoin and crypto but the way around it is Patience, because most times when the price start dropping you will be tempted to want to sell them all,but if you can resist that feeling and wait a little longer you will see the price rise up again

Wow, guys you are really awesome  !
I checked every replay and you make me feel better.
Community in crypto world always was so helpful but saying that someone lost/sell much more than me didnt really help.
Just like i said in first post, i still have feeling that i missed life chance. Now i will only dream about getting rich.
I should keep going with my heart but this time family was more important.
Thank's again for every reply but i think best way is forget about it and never comeback to this lovely world.

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. If you arent rich be ause of your past decisions, then it is not your time now to become victorious.

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.

Don't worry, don't just blame yourself for the big mistake you have done because you are not the only one, there are also a lot of stories related to this thing, we don't know that bitcoin will be too strong as of its current situation, no one knows that bitcoin will reach $58k, this is not too late for you mate, there is still a lot fo mining site wherein you can earn money and invest it in bitcoin. Just go back to the start with good knowledge, you still have a good advantage compared to other bitcoiners.

Buddy, you are not alone in your mistakes. If you read the stories of members of the forum, then everyone had their disappointments. We are not gods and cannot foresee the future. I also lost the opportunity to become rich. But living in constant depression is unbearable. The past cannot be returned and corrected, constant apathy and whining about missed opportunities, cripple ourselves even more.
Just imagine that now there are opportunities, at least somehow to correct mistakes, so that again in the future you will not regret the past.
Try to live in the here and now.

Nothing will happen if you just keep thinking about the past and regret it. All of us experienced different failures with our journey in this crypto space, we can't go back to the past so all we can do is move on and start again if we still want to pursue what we want.. I've experienced depression too when I was crypto gambling and tried futures trading recently, I got greedy on them that all my profit and capital was gone in just few minutes. Now I started trading again learning from those mistakes.

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.

You are not the only person facing this situation now. You won't believe i sold dozons of eth in the rate of 90-120$ and now where it is now. I earned more than 45 eth when eth was playing around 100-180/200$. I sold all of them because the market was unstable.  Also there have so many people like us here who could not hold their fortune when it was by their side.

I'm really sorry about your misfortune with cryptocurrency mining.
I guess that your biggest mistake was quitting your job.Having a cryptocurrency business should be a side hustle,until it gets big enough to generate a sufficient income.Not having a job and investing everything in one business is a huge risk.That's why most small businesses fail in their first 3 years of existence.
The crypto world was really unstable and filled with crypto exchange scams back in 2010-2018.
I hope that you are going well and you will get out of this depression.

I wish someone told me about BTC in 2010. I only found out about it myself in 2013. I've also made mistakes along the road, I remember Reddcoin (possibly) increasing like 10x times what a lost opportunity to have more BTCs, then Dogecoin reaching today's values while I sold most Dogecoin in 2017, this is life, we have to move on, we're not perfect!

Life is not working like that. You can regret if you already know how exact what will happen to bitcoin but doing that thing like you mention. Because you are made a mistake and know it. But if you actually don't know what will happen in future, just take it and don't need to regret. There are a lot of people who hold so many bitcoins and maybe they already sold it in cheap price in past. Because they too, don't expect bitcoin will be like this price. Like me who already happy when see bitcoin although only $600-$700 because i started when bitcoin dumped in 2015 like $170 or somewhat.

It's easier said than done, but there's really no point crying over spilled milk. Put in a really bad situation? Being sad about it isn't going to get you away from it and move forward in life. Instead, you just suck it all up and continue growing(in every aspect).

In the first place, if you think you missed getting "really rich", then guess what: you're going to have the same regrets in a few years if you don't get your ass back up right now and start stacking sats.

There are still a lot of opportunities for crypto, and bitcoin isn't the only one that can make you rich this time. There are a lot of potential coins out there that will soon overtake Bitcoin's price. Those mistakes can serve as a lesson on how to use crypto to improve your life. Also, you're not the only one who made poor decisions, and I hope you now fully comprehend the gravity of your situation. Make yourself happy; money or crypto is not true happiness; be grateful that your wife is still with you; you still have plenty of chances and opportunities to start over and grind. Invest in some low-cost coins right now and wait years for them to transform into millions of money. You aren't the biggest crypto loser, you still have chances to make yourself rich, just start to exert effort now.

No point in regretting, crypto market still offer the same opportunity anyway if you maybe keeping an eye to the market, even bitcoin still could go up to $100k there's no stopping people from making profit again and again through bitcoin though it's still kinda uncertain in many people's opinion.
Regardless whether your story is true or not we're still kinda at early phase of blockchain adoption if you're an IT person maybe you could make money from this once in a lifetime chance whether by working and being an blockchain developer, etc maybe wouldn't have as much ROI to those early investors but still worth to try.

If you have made loans or if you took credit from your credit card to buy bitcoins, you might have been worst off... than where you are now. You have to remember that loans and credit has to be paid off and you would have had to do that for several years.

Some people did that in 2017, with the ATH of $18 000 and the price plummeted to $3000 and only recovered 3 years after that. So for that period ... they were stuck in debt... thinking they would make huge profits.  Roll Eyes

Do not live in a world of "IF" and "BUT" ..... decisions was made and risk was taken and it did not work out for you. Sell those GPU's to gamers, because GPU's are expensive now and very scarce. (Take some of the money and invest it in some Alt coin with potential and take a break from Crypto currencies... until they go to the Moon)  Wink

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.

The OP's story sounds a bit strange to me too, and I have a habit of not believing everything I believe in the forums, but it could be, since he said he lost Bitcoins in scam-exchanges, and, in addition, I suppose he must have also sold Bitcoins to pay expenses while he was mining.

We will have to see in later posts if we can believe it is the same person or is it an account that was sold.

Its his story though, we couldn't find out whether it's true or not but his account so far is pretty old. He has too few posts here in the forum.
He is registered 2010. He seems fond of gambling because he replied to gambling threads so there is a chance of him that like the rest of us, he could have gambled too. And he is also knowledgeable in Unix system which is quite the characteristics of first miners of BTC.

Anyway, BTC spent for the good of wife isn't a lost BTC.

...everything going perfect but bitcoin price was really low and unstable.
If what the OP posted here is a true life story to them, it's really a pathetic one. It's a sad feeling knowing one has lost out on a great opportunity as a pioneer in a field of business/work. That's the case with the OP. However, people really don't learn. The way the OP saw the abysmally low price of Bitcoin in 2010 and a few years after but failed to keep Bitcoin he made is the same way a lot of us now see some abysmally low price alts and neglect them. If anything, the Dogecoin journey should be teaching us all a great lesson. But we don't truly want to learn, in the practical sense of it. We should form a habit of keeping certain alts, and not just Bitcoin alone. This is a bull year and the alts will expectedly flourish.
