#Crypto is the new gold rush – but one wrong move can cost you EVERYTHING.
Here are 5 real mistakes that wrecked portfolios – and how YOU can dodge them:
1. Not Taking Profits Early
A trader turned $2,000 into $120,000 during the 2021 bull run...
He waited for "$1 million" – today, it's worth $8,500.
Lesson: Take profits in phases. Don't get greedy.
2. Ignoring Cold Wallets
One guy lost $1.7M in a MetaMask hack.
Fix: Use cold storage for big funds. Ledger or Trezor > Chrome extension.
3. Buying the Hype
$PEPE? $DOGE? $SHIB? Great... until you’re the last buyer.
Rule: If TikTok is pumping it, you're already late.
4. Falling for Fake Airdrops
Scammers are targeting wallets with fake “You won!” airdrops.
Always double-check URLs and never sign random transactions.
5. FOMO-Investing Without Research
Just because your friend made 3x doesn’t mean you will.

Final Thought:
Making money in crypto is easy. Keeping it? That’s the real challenge.
