💀10 Brutal Lessons I Paid Millions to Learn (So You Don’t Have To) 💸💡

They call us OGs now. Back then, we were just apes with WiFi and dreams of lambos 🦍🚗💭

I’ve been rugged, dumped on, hacked, and humbled.

Here are 10 mistakes that nearly wiped me out — and might just save you from burning. 🔥

1️⃣ ❤️ Fell in Love with My Bags

Held $ETH from $100 to $4,800… and all the way back down 📉

🔻 Mistake: Believing every project is “the one”

✅ Fix: Have a sell strategy. Take profits. Love your future more than your bags.

2️⃣ 🟢 Chased Green Candles

Saw $SHIB mooning 🚀 Bought the top. Instant regret.

🔻 Mistake: Buying hype without homework

✅ Fix: If TikTok is hyping it — it’s probably too late.

3️⃣ ⛽️ Ignored Gas Fees

Spent hundreds on failed NFT mints during ETH gas wars 🧨

🔻 Mistake: Not understanding network conditions

✅ Fix: Time your transactions. Use L2s or cheaper chains when possible.

4️⃣ 🧠 Trusted Every “Expert”

Followed a Twitter thread into a rug 💀

🔻 Mistake: Thinking confidence = credibility

✅ Fix: DYOR 🧪 Always. Even “influencers” get rugged.

5️⃣ 🎲 Went All-In, All Wrong

Dropped 6 figures into a memecoin with vibes. Got rugged in 3 days 💸

🔻 Mistake: No diversification, no logic

✅ Fix: Spread risk. Emotion = exposure.

6️⃣ 🔓 Ignored Wallet Security

Clicked a fake airdrop. Bye-bye portfolio 😭

🔻 Mistake: Treating hot wallets like cold storage

✅ Fix: Hardware wallets only. Trust nothing. Sign cautiously.

7️⃣ 😰 Traded on Emotions

Panic sold during dips. FOMO bought on green days 🤦

🔻 Mistake: Letting fear and greed take the wheel

✅ Fix: Stick to your plan. Zoom out. Crypto = chaos if you react too fast.

8️⃣ 🧾 Ignored Tokenomics

Held a token that unlocked 95% of its supply in 60 days 😬

🔻 Mistake: Didn’t read the vesting schedule

✅ Fix: Study supply mechanics, emissions, VC unlocks. Don’t get dumped on.

9️⃣ 🚪 Stayed in My Comfort Zone

Ignored NFTs, DeFi, and new chains. Thought they were fads 🤷‍♂️

🔻 Mistake: Thinking old-school = safe

✅ Fix: Explore. Learn. Experiment. You don’t have to ape — but don’t dismiss early trends.

🔟 🎰 Treated Crypto Like a Casino

No plan. No tracking. Just vibes and hopium 😅

🔻 Mistake: Gambling, not investing

✅ Fix: Treat crypto like a business. Track everything. Manage risk. Play long-term.

💥 TL;DR — I Paid So You Don’t Have To

I made millions. I lost more. And every lesson cost real money.

But you? You just had to scroll.

📌 Save this. Share it. Revisit before every bull run.

Your future self will thank you 💯
