I think my biggest loss is when I trade my HMQ to BTC when the price was only at .000032 btc per HMQ,
That was my first trade and after a couple of hours the price of HMQ pump up to .00007 btc .

I think my biggest lose is with fjc, I sold all my fjc 0.00000002 for bitcoin, month later fjc went as high as 0.000001

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
I know that feeling, I've not bought ethereum while it was $9 and on top of that my worst decision ever was not buying BTC when it was $1 (the day when I found what a bitcoin is)

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?

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.

I don't know if anybody remembers of Boost coin? There was nothing special about this coin but was immediately after XC pump, and also started to rise like crazy. I have bought at the top and my BTC's at the end were almoust decimated that day.  Immediately after CloakCoin came and saved me from from my economic demise, a was on edge, to sell what is left of my BTCs.
I will not mention it losses on Mintpal, and few others scamy exchanges.

My largest loss was about $300 from bad trades. And my everyday regret and I consider as my biggest loss is the day when I heard bitcoin a couple of years ago when it was a few cents. But I didnt buy. Sad

A few years ago, I bought 1.6btc worth of karmacoin on Mintpal, at around 4 satoshis. I sold them at loss for 20 litoshis and just a few days later, it pumped around 600 litoshis  Grin

These 1.6 btc were all I had at this time.

Anyway this can of experience helps you to stay careful.

I bought 1.4 million NEM in 2015 for $250.00 AUD. My laptop shit itself and took the coins with it about a month after buying them.

Never bought them back LOL! Have made big gains elsewhere but they don't measure up to this loss...

The show goes on though Cool

My biggest lost in cryptocurrencies was when my laptop corrupted due to virus from flash drive, my wallet was gone and I can't recovered it. If I remember maybe it's around $15-$20 and in my part it was high amount, lesson learned I always provide back-up for all my wallet.

Surprisingly with all the trading I do, I've only lost about 10$ worth of BTC from the loss of a wallet and it's backup. I'd consider myself pretty lucky; knock on wood  Grin.

That was my first trade and after a couple of hours the price of HMQ pump up to .00007 btc .

I also trade HMQ bought at 0.00005 and Sold at 0.000075 per HMQ. And a couple of hours it pump to .00008, this is really the movement of HMQ I couldnt expect it will pump to that price and sold it below than that. Also, I have many loses encounter in trading cryptocurrencies but I take it as a challenge and move forward to a positive side.

In the past I lost some money by investing in Nxt. Luckily it was a small amount of Bitcoin.

I have too many losses, 40 LTC when they went to 40 bucks each but I had sold for 3 bucks because we were out of work. 30 BTC worth of QBK that were stolen by STEPSCOIN DEVS, other btc that got stolen from me and 1k Bitcoin plus that I had sold long time ago for 12 btc but if I had kept for two years would have made 140 BTC. So yes many painful losses I have had, too many to count now.  Cry

I don't want to mention alt coins as i think they still have a chance but my biggest was investing a total of .08 dollars on an altcoin. The project team had projectd many possibilities for the team but it out to be a bust. Now, am not saying that was a scam but man the price just went down during the time i bought it. Also i dont' want to mention prices and a lot of it's investors tried to compensate the loss and the team had to do something to at least show a good future for the project.
