🔥 “I invested in crypto and didn’t earn anything… am I doing something wrong?”

What I wish someone had told me when I started. When I got into crypto, I thought it was like in the TikTok videos: you put in money, wait a few days, and BOOM: 200% gains. Spoiler… it wasn’t like that. I bought poorly, sold out of fear, followed random signals on Twitter, and ended up thinking: “this isn’t for me.”

But it wasn’t a problem with crypto, it was a problem with focus.

🧠 1. You’re thinking in days when this is about months (or years). Crazy spikes exist, but they are not the norm. Those who make big gains in crypto are not the ones who trade the most, but those who patiently hold solid projects. If you buy today with the idea of selling in 72 hours… it’s almost the same as playing roulette.

⚠️ 2. You’re copying without understanding

“I saw a guy on Telegram say that $PEPE was going to explode.”

“Everyone is talking about a new coin, I bought it without thinking.”

I get it, it happened to me. But blindly following makes you dependent. You don’t know when to exit, nor why you entered. Research at least the basics: what does that project do? Is there a real community? Does it have utility or is it just smoke?

📉 3. You buy out of emotion, sell out of fear

This is classic.

It goes up → you enter late.

It goes down → you get scared and sell at a loss.

And so, a vicious cycle.

Solution: set rules. “If it drops 20%, I hold.” “If it rises 80%, I take profits.” That saves you from mental chaos.

💎 4. You don’t diversify (or you over-diversify)

You invest everything in a single crypto → very high risk.

You buy 20 different projects → you can’t keep up with any of them. Find your balance: 3 to 5 well-chosen cryptos, with fundamentals, and that’s it.

🚀 5. You don’t have a real strategy

Investing without a plan is like getting on a boat without knowing where it’s going.

Are you a long-term investor? Are you looking to multiply in a short time and exit?

Define it, and you will have a successful direction.
