I remember reading your story a few months ago, and it's completely reasonable to feel this way because it wasn't directly your fault; you didn't transfer the funds yourself. Although you shouldn't have kept funds at a casino either, there's no point in reprimanding you for your mistakes. I'm pretty sure we've all done some stupid stuff that we sometimes regret as well. I've also lost money to online wallets and services from 2014 to 2015, and I also lost some Dogecoin that would have been worth a reasonable sum of money because I never saved or improperly stored the wallet credentials. I also made poor trading choices when I was a newbie, foolish purchases with Bitcoin, such as Minecraft accounts, and possibly many more.
Thus, don't sweat it too much about it; we've all made plenty of mistakes in the past, and had I known any better back then, I would have a healthy amount of money now that would have relieaved most of my financial burden.

There are lots of stories from friends who are Bitcoin holders who are now talking about if I didn't sell my Bitcoin, I would now have a lot of money, my advice is don't stop there, we have to focus on the future, don't be discouraged because of our actions in the past, So from now on, think about the future so that we can move forward. we still have hope for success.
The problem with that is that it's very easy to say but harder to do. Let's say you bought $200 a long time ago but you didn't have much savings and your salary is the average salary in your country. When that $200 became $2,000 selling is very tempting, because it's already representing a bigger amount for you, and also at that time you didn't know if it was going to keep going up or if it was going to go down and go to shit. Let alone when the price was going up more and more.
That's why investing in bitcoin should be done with money that you don't need, and besides that, you should have savings on the side.

OP, you missed a big opportunity during Bitcoin's peak price. If you had stored your money in the right place, you could have enjoyed this bitcoin moment. Maintain your privacy at all times to preserve your funds. Transfer to a private wallet where you control the private keys. To avoid similar incidents in the future, consider using a hardware wallet to store your money safely. You must learn from the situation you have been in so that it does not happen again in the future. In any case, just keep safe.
Everybody have a story to tell when it comes to crypto, I've felt remorseful for my previous actions over the decades, landed me in a tight corner. But today, my eyes widens and aiming for substantial winnings. We can't continue leaving in fantasy, rather its time to face the real world and our fear. Crypto is risky, totally understandable. The future is bright when you have a solid foundation in the market. Bitcoin will continue shooting to the moon because its a promising longterm project in crypto. I've witnessed alot of people making it in good figures when it comes to bitcoin. We can say everyone missed some opportunity, now, it depends on how you will act today to take advantage of what is in front of you. Because if you will just speculate and not do anything, then, whatever prediction you will have for this market is useless.
Anyone can brag about what they should have done, but what really matters is how you act on this market so it would matter.
as at this time bitcoin is 63k, you should know that is block chain. bitcoin rise any time and it drop any time as well. So if getting to 70k does means it will never depreciate again.
What do you mean.You need to clarify again what you mean.
The purpose of the block chain is and never depreciates again. Usually not everyone understands the terms you say.
it goes up and down, when it drop you buy the coin,if rise you sell that's the business. if want to buy bitcoin this is the opportunity for now because bitcoin have drop to 63k now.
Up and down are like a routine in the market. Buying when prices are low is always the best, but knowing when they are low is something not everyone understands.Some think that every purchase made at any time is always profitable which is intended for people who do not value Bitcoin not on price. Most people now use Bitcoin as an investment asset in the hope of making a profit. This is where buying low and selling high requires strategies and patterns, not just buying and selling.
What a great movement, within some days Bitcoin price huge up. Yes we saw bitcoin price touch $73k. Some days ago i also sold Bitcoin at $32k But within short time i saw Bitcoin price crossed $70k. But i still holding Some small amount of Bitcoin and i will hold it till $170k.
I think after Bitcoin Halving Bitcoin price will go above $100k and within 2025 Bitcoin price will hot $150k+. I think it will be happen. And i strongly believe it.

Unfortunately we are slowly drifting away from this price range , and I believe most users that are currently cashing out and putting bearish pressure on the market are those that bought high with the hope of price going up but BTC price crashed along the way, but second opportunity presented itself and they could have sold to go breakeven, other category of users are those that missed the opportunity to take out profits when the first All time high was recorded and now got 2nf chance & have dumped everything... Others could be trying out how to make a quick profit from the markets as new investors and this is what we seeing... But i believe if we can get into the $80K region we might have less crypto users selling as buying momentum could increase.

I checked all of these old transactions I made like yesterday or the day before. a 14.6k transaction was now 44.8k and a 9.4k deal is now 28k+.
And what I lost to rollbit sending my money to a FTX address went from 4K to now 12.1K. Like wtf
^Fuck FTX they are robbing [words i cant say on this forum] and they are the reason why I lost it, now my money is to the government. Just know if Scam Bankrupt-Fried was with me IRL he would've given me my hard earned funds and maybe extra back to me long ago. My mental health has a whole lot to say to him.
People have lost worse sure, I've done almost everything I could to get it back ever, but any loss still sucks sadly. And nope I aint gonna be checking for the new value of the lost funds.
Other than the sad losses that people have been scammed out of or lost due to bullshi, you should also check your wallets and see how much your crypto deals/transactions have drastically gone up. If you disposed your crypto long ago, don't be sad since you most likely weren't going to keep that crypto for this long anyway or predict it. It's insane to see how much crypto has increased but if you missed out and are stressed about it then don't be since it will eventually drop hard as always (no disrespect to anyone holding).
Stories like that are very common and if anything I expect those stories to appear more often, as more people come to this market and store their coins in exchanges as they think this is the most practical option for them, so there is not much to do except to start all over again and try to do things right, otherwise the same could happen again, and at that point it would not be surprising if you decide to give up on the market as you were unable to keep your coins secure for a second time.

Having a private wallet or using a hard-ware wallet is not everything that one needs to be safe. You can still be using this and still lose your funds if you either use a clone wallet or are careless with your private key and phrase.So why educate and guide someone on how to get a good wallet? It's also important to teach them how important it is to keep those phrases and private keys safe, keep them out of the reach of others, avoid phishing links, and connect the wallet to untrusted devices in order for it not to get infected.

There are really some scenarios in our investment journey where we are making an incorrect decision with our money, just like what happened to OP. Due to what happened, he missed this great opportunity. I'm not saying that he made a mistake, but it is part of if you happen to become a victim of a scam or anything that will result in losing your money. This big opportunity that OP missed, the best thing to do is not to stress over it. There will always be another time to have the same opportunity. What's best for now is to recover his losses or have enough money to store and wait for the next bear market. I know it will take a lot of time as we are nearing the Bitcoin halving, but it's better than thinking about a lot of things in life. Just chill, find a solution, and not think too deeply about what happened.
From your topic I was expecting a totally different message but seriously I thought ftx has filled for bankruptcy why did you leave your money in an online exchange, its so risky cause they are potential targets for scammers and things can happen like bad ceo or stuffs like that.
Next time better put your assets in your hands, practice sef custody, put your asset in open source wallet like Electrum.
Yeah bitcoin is getting higher and its a good thing for those that didn't sell last week, its better to hold bitcoin for longer term than to engage in short term practices.

That’s what’s actually what makes it even more regretful. The fact that you had your chance to make profits when the value was all the way up but didn’t is something that could make you stay up all night thinking about what ifs. Well, it goes both ways. If you weren’t able to buy and hold before the price was high, you get stressed. If you weren’t able to sell before the price took a dip, you get stressed.
You need to find that perfect balance and surely, the benefits will be so much and you will feel incredibly grateful.
Bitcoin price will definitely rise again and reach a higher value in the future but those who already think it is too high to buy will never buy bitcoin even if the price drops more. I guess when bitcoin dropped to $61k they said it would drop further and would keep waiting for $50k, and just like that they would never own any bitcoin out of fear .
Bitcoin is unpredictable but in the long run it will always increase so those who really want to invest in bitcoin will buy it as soon as they can, they will never hesitate or pay the price.
Threads like this always make me wonder why people ignore good advice given by others for free? We were telling you not to hold money on exchanges for years, but greed is stronger. Either it's greed or laziness, because I'm sure that OP heard the phrase not your keys - not your coins.
Probably for the same reason that they find it counterintuitive and that they don't trust strangers to do what they want to do, that's how I see things in this kind of thing, why they don't take the logical advice. There's also the matter of convenience although I can't see how it's a strong argument but some say that it's why they're storing their bitcoins or any cryptocurrency for that matter in exchanges. It's a really weird world we're living in, people getting your trust only to snatch it down under when you least expect it. I don't believe that we will ever see people stopping to use CEX as a way to store their bitcoins for the long-term, people will always going to do that no matter how much we care that they do it and tell them that it's risky. I guess it's in our best interest that we do our own business more than we do others because they don't care at all, the people that would follow the advice would probably be following it and those that won't will never no matter how much we persuade them.

Many people actually regret with their celebration for past all time highs of Bitcoin and sold their bitcoins at $10, $100, $1,000 or $10,000 even $20,000.You need to find that perfect balance and surely, the benefits will be so much and you will feel incredibly grateful.
Bitcoin is a best investment asset all time ever so if you have bitcoin, hold it.
Don't trade your bitcoin because in a bull run, trading your bitcoin will cause you sell low, buy high and by that, you lose your bitcoin.
Holding, enjoy the bull run and don't sell all your bitcoin at any price. Do DCA exit strategy.

Past experiences help us become a lot more mature, there are things that I used to blame a lot on my journey into crypto, scams are quite frequent but it only increases patience. I sold bitcoin for cash in 2013, but at the time I wasn't aware of how special bitcoin was, and over time I didn't regret it but rather grew attached to the market.
Taking advantage of the opportunities in the bitcoin space depends on each of us, from micro to macro factors, we are all part of the space, the stage has some happy people and some sad people.

Those who still blame or criticize fraudulent projects every time they lose money, they will continue to lose more because of their stubbornness when it is their own fault. If they are not greedy to invest in projects that promise high profits, how can anyone scam them?
Congratulations on becoming more mature with your experiences in the market. Only when we grow up and stop blaming others can we make a profit and survive in this harsh market. Don't blame others, always get up after every fall, if anyone can do that, they will definitely make a lot of profit in the market.
They blame those fraudulent activities out of frustration and for sure they already learn a valuable lesson that they should never participate since if they got scam for second time around then we can called them stubborn since they didn't learn something on their first experience.
We became mature on every experiences we face especially if those one make us lose something huge that we don't easily forget that's why we are here continue to warn and advice people on the proper way to deal with something especially right now where market collapsed for sure there's some guys out there got panic in this situation so the best approach they could make in this kind of situation is they actively monitor the current market condition and try to learn since it can help them to became more good investor and when similar scenario came for sure they know what to do and ignore any thoughts about getting panic in any price fall situation.
