🚨 5 Brutal Lessons I Learned in Crypto (So You Don’t Have To) 💸

When I jumped into crypto, I genuinely thought I’d be a millionaire in a week. 🤦‍♂️

But reality had other plans… and I learned the hard way.

If you’re just starting out — read this before you FOMO into any coin.

1️⃣ Don’t Go All-In on One Coin

In 2021, I bet big on $DOGE thinking it would go to the moon. 🌕

It crashed. I held the bag. Diversify or suffer — no coin is guaranteed.

2️⃣ Influencer ≠ Expert

200K followers doesn’t mean they know what they’re doing. 🎭

Some are paid to shill bags. Learn to read charts 📊 and trust your own analysis.

3️⃣ Always Use Stop-Losses

I watched a trade drop 40% thinking, “It’ll bounce back…” 😬

Spoiler: it didn’t. Protect your capital — stop-loss is your seatbelt. 🛡️

4️⃣ Start Small, Learn Fast

Crypto isn’t a shortcut to riches. Use small positions to learn. 🎯

Education > Ego — your capital will thank you later.

5️⃣ Emotions Will Wreck You

Fear, greed, FOMO, panic — these are your real enemies.

Stay calm. Have a plan. Trade like a machine, not like a gambler. 🧠🧊

I’m still learning every day…

But if this post saves even ONE beginner from the pain I went through — it’s worth it. 🙏
