Most people here with biggest lost are sold early, included myself.
If you sell your coins early that does not mean that you will end up in a loss,if you let go of a coin then all the valuation after that are just hypothetically nothing because there is nothing you can do and you really cannot count your losses with those assessment .

My biggest loss with cryptocurrencies is selling Bitconnect. It was may 25. I sold my coins at 5 mBTC. If I had them now every coin can worth more than 14 mBTC. rising in the price start just I sold them. I'm so sad because I had hold them about 3 months and  I sold them in the worst time.

Mine is not a physical loss, but not buying ethereum while it was $15 is my worst decision ever! I could have made my total capital x25, oh god.  Cry


Lets make EEA - Ethereum Early sold Anonimous


For everyone who sold ETH tooo early

Mine was Ethereum. I lost about 5 - 10% of my investment the second time I bought some.. my first time was successful.
I bought at the wrong time when it quickly moved from 120—190 and then moved back down. I panicked and sold at 150 dollar.

FOMOing on ripple when it boosted a lot with some margin trading involved. I now realize what a speculative coin is and will always stay far away from it and I also don't margin trade anymore.

My biggest lost was definitely Josh Garza's fucking Paycoin scam. Second biggest was pbmining. Third is me being a dumbass and running random wallets on my main computer left and right without sandbox or VM and getting fucked by a malware years ago thinking it wouldn't happen to me.

Learned my lessons on all these fronts; not trusting anything remotely centralized (paycoin, cloud mining) ever since and always only run wallets in VM or in a restricted sandbox.

I could't agree more with this.  I found this to be a valued contribution to my knowledge in bitcoin security.

According to the prices today, if a kept my bitcoins i'd be up thirty to sixty K

Losing bitcoin due to software or hardware difficulties and being scammed? at least five k

how about you?
I think the biggest loses I have made is when I hard of bitcoin in 2012 when it price is below $100 I refused to invest and put about $1300 in binary option trading and lose the whole investment. I always see my not investing into bitcoin earlier than now as a lost to me.

I have bought and earned many different(shit)coins and mostly in yobit because I thought those coins will be very successful.

but ended holding and sometimes selling for almost nothing, I think that the total amount in bitcoin would be around one which at that time didn't cost a lot like 300$ but now thats almost 10x.

Damn. That's probably what most people did - sold early Grin

For me it's buying at $1000 in 2013 and not selling at the all time high and taking the logical profit. But instead got greedy and held even though the price was crashing. Eventually I got impatient of waiting for an additional pump and sold it at half the price i bought it at. Resulted in a 4k loss.

If i held that for 4 years and sold now, i would have still made 2.7x on my investment. It's crazy how bitcoin can rise and rise.
Wow, but sometimes when you have bills to take care of, we feel impatient.
It normal
