Totally agree. But the thing is, I *''knew''* that the markets were going to go up in the next couple of months/weeks and would continue to do so further, so I was very confident that if I just held and didn’t do anything, I would make a fuck ton of money. I was totally AWARE of that. But over the weeks, when everything went according to plan, I was getting used to the idea of these 250k. It felt like not much at all. That was the moment Bitcoin started consolidating, and I was already massively in profit. But as said, I was getting used to it. These 250k that I basically had in front of me felt like peanuts. I started feeling the need of wanting more. Greed. There was a fuck ton of liquidity below us at 80k, so I thought to myself: what if I sell now, lock in my profits (which were about 8k at that point), and reenter the market when the liquidity around 80k gets grabbed, with my new profits, and then let it run? Then an average of a 10x would get me to around 650k. Now *THAT* felt cool! So this thought got more prominent in my head over time, not letting me go. Just a big: What if? And I knew the whole time that would be the dumbest thing to do and went against everything I told myself not to do. But eventually I sold. And now I was sitting there. With around 12k USDT. And even then, the 600k didn’t feel enough. So I entered a short position. All in. With 8x leverage, with the thought: *If the markets don’t go down to 80k one more time, I’m fucked anyways, so why not short it.* I know that’s the dumbest way to think and I wasn’t clearly thinking at that time, not at all. Didn’t sleep a lot and had a lot of personal problems as well in my life. But I did it. And Bitcoin hit my entry price perfectly, went down, so I was confident my plan would work, but as told, it was kind of an all-or-nothing thing, so I didn’t even set a stop loss. Woke up the next morning and now I was in the mess. Bitcoin pumped, and was in an all-in short position now down like 50%. Long story short, I now got liquidated and the money’s gone. I’m not sad about the money that’s gone. Money comes and goes. And i'm confidend in my ability to get money in the future. I’m sad that I didn’t stick to my plan. I even recorded videos of me at 4 a.m. in the morning entering the positions on Black Monday, as a memory for myself in the future, swearing to myself that my strategy was to just HOLD and not do anything but set my stop loss at break-even for all of my positions—which I did. But as soon as I was sitting in profit and Bitcoin started consolidating, I was getting sooo fucking greedy, completely lost my mind, and fucked up everything. Now, my plan went through perfectly pretty much and Bitcoin’s sitting at 100k. That was my plan from the beginning—I knew that’d happen—but the 250k, which I was so confident of getting if I just held, wasn’t fucking enough. WTF. 17 years old and 250k’s not enough... Don’t know what I was thinking, but it definitely was the biggest lesson ever, even though it sounds dumb. If everything tells you not to do something but you still get pulled towards doing it—probably don’t fucking do it. I knew i'd get 250k at 17 and it wasn't enough. (The 250k im using is just hypothetical, but i estimate i'd made at least around a number somewehre in that area)

Why is sol up? So people can gamble on shitcoins and memes… it literally has inflation built into it and also token unlocks that will drop the price when it happens - the nearest one this march fyi But these degen meme tards buy it cause they can gamble 5$ at a time lol and have zero awareness of sol’s tokenomics cause they “saw number go up”. ppl are going to get wrecked holding it. I admit I bought some sol in 2023 but I was AWARE of the flaws.. most people don't know and are buying cause of an influencer. ETH actually provides a strong foundation hence why people use it to build coins on. Smart contracts etc… But above all it’s one of the most stable chains and you wont run into STABILITY issues like the SOL chain thats why whales use it.
