I Thought It Was Always About Going Up...

I remember my first trade… The 2021 bull season. I had just 200. No big dreams, no experience. Just the voices on Twitter, the faces on YouTube screaming, "Get rich overnight." I believed them. I bought a couple of altcoins—names that would make me cringe now. But then, luck struck, and200 turned into 1000.

That version of me… The one who didn’t think about taking profits, the one who thought, "We just got started." He was a greedy kid. I eyed my10,000 savings. I threw it all in. Because if 1000 could turn into5000, why couldn’t 10,000 turn into50,000?

And it did… My portfolio reached 20,000. I was no longer an "early investor." I thought I was a "visionary." I sold my house. Yes, my home. I entered the market with100,000. My mind was clouded. No analysis, no risk assessment, just blind faith.

And then?

One morning, I received the notification:

“80% drop. LUNA delisted. BTC crash. USDT turbulence.”

I had just $15,000 left in my portfolio. My relationship with my wife started falling apart. There were debts I couldn’t pay. I had been living without rent for months, and now my house was someone else’s. I couldn’t sleep. I couldn’t talk. The loneliness was suffocating. One day, staring at the window for hours, I asked myself this question:

"Is it harder to live, or harder to sink?"

I thought about suicide. But I couldn’t do it. I had to tell this story to someone.

This story serves as a note to those who get caught up in the allure of money. The crypto market doesn’t just make you rich. Sometimes, it takes everything you have… and leaves you with nothing but a silent screen and a blank face.
