How I Lost Everything in Crypto—And Gained It All Back
In 2020, I took a leap into crypto with $4,000. During the 2021 bull market, my portfolio skyrocketed—10X, 20X, and more. I felt unstoppable, convinced I had cracked the code.
But I hadn’t.
When the 2022 bear market hit, everything unraveled. I held on, refusing to take profits, watching my gains disappear. I didn’t know how to manage risk, take profits, or control my emotions. By the end, I had lost almost everything.
Instead of quitting, I chose to rebuild. Starting in April 2022, I began accumulating small amounts every month, researching projects carefully, and sticking to a disciplined plan. Slowly, I applied the lessons I had learned.
Now, in 2025, my portfolio has rebounded, but more importantly, I’ve grown.
The journey taught me resilience and the importance of strategy.
5 Lessons I Learned:
1. **Take Profits** – Greed destroys gains; always lock in wins.
2. **DCA Consistently** – Small, steady investments add up.
3. **Risk What You Can Lose** – Avoid emotional decisions by investing within your means.
4. **Stay Disciplined** – FOMO and panic are your worst enemies.
5. **Keep Learning** – Knowledge is the best hedge against losses.
Crypto isn’t just about money—it’s about growth. And I’m grateful for every lesson along the way. 🙏🏻
