The world of cryptocurrencies is full of opportunities, but it does not forgive mistakes. Every newcomer (and even experienced traders) has faced something from this list at least once. Let's break down the most common mistakes and scams so that you stay one step ahead.

❌ TOP-5 MISTAKES OF CRYPTO-NEWBIES:
1. Buying at highs, selling at lows
– Emotions take over: FOMO (fear of missing out) pushes to buy at the peak, while panic forces to sell at the bottom.
2. Sending to the wrong address
– Made a mistake with one letter – and that's it, the funds are gone forever. Crypto does not forgive inattention.
3. Going all-in without stop losses
– All deposits in one coin? Without a stop-loss? A direct path to zeroing your balance.
4. Storing on an exchange without 2FA
– Without two-factor authentication, accounts are easily hacked. Keep funds in wallets.
5. Forgot about the coin, and it skyrocketed
– Bought and forgot, and a month later you look – X10... but it's already too late.

🕵️♂️ FRAUD: BE ALERT
Fake airdrops and scam websites
– "Get free tokens, just connect your wallet" — and goodbye assets.
Fake accounts on Telegram and X
– Scammers copy well-known crypto bloggers and scam money.
Pump&Dump groups
– Closed chats that promise the "next 100x coin" – but in reality, you are buying while they are selling.

💡 How to protect yourself:
Always check the addresses.
Do not click on links from questionable sources.
Do your own research – research before investing.
Enable 2FA and do not share your seed phrases with anyone.
