So you regret buying shit coins and not selling them while buying "legit" coins and selling them? Lol. I am pretty much sure you invested in those shit coins so that you can make some quick profit. Didn't work out as you planned I guess. Never heard of those coins that you have mentioned. It is probably those coins are used for just pumping and dumping. The developers keep on pumping the price and once people starts to invest and make the price go higher, the developers start dumping it.
Make sure you invest in coins that are well established and has good reputation. In long term, those coins will always yield profit!

Recently, I began to save 10% of my income to buy bitcoin then I managed to buy it at 11k and when the price has grown to 15k I thought that I could buy cheaper and sold in the end I could not buy below((

I used to hold a half bitcoin and also 14 Ethereum but I wasn't satisfied and I decide to use the money to invest in few new altcoins and here I am, I've lost 80% of my invested money, my btc and eth are gone to cut the story short, the only hope I have left is on altcoins season
What are the new altcoins you are investing in? Many of the coins are very bad in the early stages but they get better in the altcoin season. Don't be disappointed, you aren't sure to lose your invested money.

I ❤ ₿itcoin and Ethereum
After reading the headline, it will be extremely obvious that the biggest regret in anyone's life will certainly be not buying Bitcoins at $ABC rate or not buying Ethereum knowing its being traded at $XY rate. But let's forget that and talk about the reality. ICOs were golden time to a lot of people, including me. I can't have regret buying bitcoins in the beginning (when 10K bitcoins were used to buy a pizza) coz I didn't knew about something called Bitcoin but real regret is not being able to take profits being experienced.

That having said, my biggest regret is not selling ICON ($ICX) at the price of $10 (ATH = $12.64) which I had receive in ICO at the price of $0.11. Share yours!

My regret is I know Bitcoin since 2016 at the price of Bitcoin $600, but I ignored Bitcoin and was not interested to investing in Bitcoin, then it makes me regret not buying Bitcoin at $600 and hold Bitcoin until now, so that I can make a big profit and of course I will be very rich now if I invest in Bitcoin when the price of Bitcoin is still $600.

3) Not bought 1 BTC when it was back to 4000 Dollar 2018
Same here mate but no one still expects that Bitcoin will be growing this much. If we bought when at that low price we might now enjoying all the profits we have but I guess I gotta move on. Nothing will change if I will make remorse on that one. One thing also I regret this current bull run is that I sell my Bitcoins at the $20k mark not entirely though but still, I could make a lot more profit if I just hold. Now I am making sure that this happens again and trying not to be greedy as well that is why I am preparing my exit point.

Apart from the one you said not knowing about Bitcoin early I also regret not immediately selling the coin I received has a reward for participating in bounty.

My regret in crypto investing is that I didn't sell all the altcoins I got from the bounty campaign, now almost all of them have no price and only a few are still holding out. And I didn't buy much bitcoins in March 2020 when the price dropped 40% in a day.
You should have learned a lot from your case dude, try to go out from the market when you have been getting a lot of profit from your campaign. it says that if the team or project have a lot of uncertainties and you should never try to keep the coins for the long term. So many hunters have been learning from here and they were selling their reward when they were seeing their reward worth some bucks.
So many people have ever experienced the same thing like you.

my biggest regret was fucking around with altcoins and not just putting it all in BTC.  Overall am up with alts, but would be A LOT more up if just stuck with BTC

My biggest regret in cryptocurrency investment was selling early my holdings as an investment, because if I didn't sell it immediately then probably I may double the profit that I've get from selling early my holdings. That would be one of the biggest thing that I am regretting right now, especially seeing the market hitting and breaking many speculations of other people.

I think the most popular regret except not buying $COIN at $ABC rate is buying and selling too early or too late  Cheesy

I don't really know what would be my biggest regret in cryptocurrency investment because I have so many mistake.
I have so many mistakes so it is hard to choose which one would be the biggest regret to have.
I bought an alt-coin back when it was being hype and after a day my investment went down more than half so I have to cut loss.
I also experience selling an alt-coin when it was being pump and after a few days the price of the alt was still raising that the profit that I gain when I sold it would have been 5x if I just hold it for a few more days.

I regret that I bought a relatively big amount of EOS when Ownr added its support. I hoped it would cost $4 soon, but now I realize that investment was like loosing Bitcoin.

In the cryptocurrency industry, the biggest regret is usually in investing  instruments. Whether it’s investing in a new project,
like the one you’re experiencing or on an investment Ponzi  scheme or  on  an old altcoin  investment. It varies.  I’m actually
experiencing great regret, not just one. One thing  I would say is I  regret having  sold  my ethereum well below the current
price. I should not sell it, because at the moment the price of etehereum is very high. Even if I wanted to buy back ethereum,
there’s no way I’m going to buy it now when the price is at the top.

What you had to buy before the pump.
If I knew that the price would rise so much, I would buy, not just mine.

My strategy is simple, I take projects that are old, with a proven team and small market capitalization!
They have huge growth potential.
Here's my list:
1) Phore coin - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3179265.2880  I will get Graphene [GFN] https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--5304323
2) Alias - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-spectrecoin-anonymous-tx-tor-ring-signatures-stealth-4434053
3) NIX Coin - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-nix-next-gen-privacy-currency-multi-layered-interoperability-platform-5099680
4) SafeCoin - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-safe-safecoin-community-edition-of-solana-2838370
5) EmerCoin

For me, small capitalization is a BIG PERSPECTIVE! You can invest a little, but get a lot of money!

One of my biggest regrets probably is holding Centra and not selling them when its company got sued.  I have around 55k Centra bought from an exchange, I thought that the project is legit since Floyd Mayweather was the one advertising this company later found out that the project developer was sued, found guilty, and detained.   I failed to sell my Centra holdings so I am left bag holding some worthless token.  The good side is, I have a memento of a once-promising token turned scam/fraud because of SEC's action.

I bought XMR at 0.016 BTC, saw it rise to 0.033 and I didn't sell a single one. Now the price has been stagnating at 0.006-0.008 BTC for years, I dumped half of it and still hold the rest, waiting for at least 0.01 BTC. Seems like the more crypto regulation we get, the less likely XMR is to return to the previous levels - regulators are really not liking privacycoins, they are already not becoming less available on major exchanges, and with the recent news about self-hosted wallets KYC, it's likely that they might just get banned in the future.

actually there are a lot of regrets in crypto but it is wrong to forget everything and the latest regret I experienced was selling the AG8 coin which I bought at a price of $ 0.009 around June / July and last September the coin price reached $ 0.1 but until now I still hold because I believe it will reach $ 0.5
maybe I was too stupid or too trusting in this project and now it costs only $ 0.01
