I believed in Ethereum from its beginnings. I purchased over 7,000 of them but sold shortly after the doa hack because it violated my philosophy of what crypto stood for. If I would have kept even 1000 of them, my starting point as an investor would have been totally shifted.
Good thing crypto keeps giving us chances 😛

My biggest mistake or regret is that I didn't start early with cryptocurrency. Yes I have heard about it before but I didn't took the time to check it before. Due to bad rumors spreading I thought cryptocurrency was just another internet scam that time. If only I took the time to learn about cryptocurrency I would have made it to top right now.
I have lost of oppertunity of 12000$
This is why you are in continuous learning in crypto. You may earn with a little by selling at good price but in the future there's a better price that you regret and blaming yourself for selling early.That type of mindset for selling early must be changed, take note that when you sell and you've gained profit consider it as profit.
Yours is about $12,000. Mine is I sold a few when bitcoin hit $19,000 but I didn't sold most and now were sitting on $6,700 - I got few bitcoins and this is why I keep on holding, I'm a long term investor.
Buying at a high price and selling at a low price are the biggest mistakes I have made in the past. Now I try not to happen again.

My biggest mistake was panic selling and selling ETH at 0.02!! Now look at it's price. Pushing 0.07 today but it was even trading at 0.1 just a few months ago! I won't tell you exactly how much ETH i sold but to give you an idea, i lost a few months worth of salary.
Never sell your ETH below $1000 boys.
Missing out the chance to profit big expecting a big price increase and a profit on holding has lead to a drastic loss as the price has dropped low to $7000. Hope the recovery will take place in a short and the same will make more investors get into the bitcoin community and support in the growth of cryptocurrency as a whole.
My biggest mistake was to sell off my NEO(antshare, as it was called at that time). I was one of the investors in NEO ICO and it was also my very first ICO investment. I sold all of NEO at a loss as I was very new to the market that time and didn't had any idea how this worked. Another big mistake was that i bought Ethereum at 7$-10$ many a times but traded it and thus lost a huge potential profit.
My biggest mistake was I did not follow my friend's suggestion to invest in Bitcoin. It was around 2015 and Bitcoin was around $ 220. He said that Bitcoin is a long-term investment. Actually I have more money. Can buy about 3 or 4 Bitcoin. But I did not mind it because I did not really believe that. I never again discussed it. After two years passed, my friend contacted me again. He said Bitcoin soared. It was 2017, Bitcoin touched $ 20,000. Imagine 2 years ago the Bitcoin price was around $ 220. Within two years have gone up many times. How sorry I am why I did not follow my friend's advice. If that time I follow my friend's advice, maybe now I'm rich.
I regret of not trusting bitcoin/cryptocurrency when I first heard it.I doubted what it can do to the people's lives to change the way of the living and helps their financial needs or even save money for the future I don't believe that crypto can make all of that.
Since the bear market has started whenever I receive my bounty I will immediately dispose/sell of them and fortunately afterwards it will dump as well as on my trading even though the ROI is small it is fine with me. Holding is good in this kind of situation but quick trade is better at some cases.
The biggest mistake that I had is with ETN, I got like $6000 from it but after a week it went double so I learned that whenever you sell something do not ever look back.

I've already done so many mistakes too as of being a crypto holder but I'm not considering them big, for me they are just minor compare to the ones you experienced. As of now, the worst thing I've done is to cash out even though it's not the best time for it. Take note, I'm aware that it was an impractical move but I still did because I don't have any choice — I really need some money that time. Honestly, I'm having a regeret 'til now

My biggest mistake happened just last week there’s a ICO that my Girlfriend suggested to be invest with because she participated the campaign on that ICO so she has a knowledge about it. But unfortunately I don’t believe her because she is just new in this market so I doubt her. Suddenly, I check the marketcap and see the token of my girlfriend mentioned last week is now at TOP 10 and the sad part it’s price was getting higher.

I did sell many of my altcoins in a lower price just like hawala and many of them and then for the next day regretting of it. We all do have experience mate about that, the most important is they teach us some knowledge and now we now what to do for others tokens.
Everybody had also experienced that. Its not a very big mistakes. Once youve done it we must not regret it because we are the one who chooses that decision. When you bought we must learn how to wait more longer, it is our investments for the future.
I made a mistake for my career in the world of crypto-currency. The biggest mistakes have always been that I sold my assets too early because of what I lost profit. Now I always leave at least 30% and never sell everything.
My biggest mistake way not holding bitcoin when it was cheap.
I used to trade bitcoin when it was below 250$ a piece.
When I look at my old wallet, the smallest of transaction used to be of .1 Bitcoin.
I traded it, gambled, cashed out and took a break from it.
Biggest mistake of my life.

Dude, you couldn't have known that. But I agree that you had been a little bit greedy. If I was on your place, I would have sold it when it grew by half already. That's a not so bad profit to be honest. That's 50%.
My biggest mistake was deciding to hold coins earned for the bounty campaign. They grew by half, I decided to wait a little more, but suddenly they fell sharply in price. I didn't get anything from them because of my greed. That'll teach me a lesson.
