Story of a Whale

In the summer of 2019 (DeFi summer for those who was around back then).

I was taking all my money every month from my online business (income varied as was a seasonal product I was selling so anywhere from £4k-£10k per month on avg) and dumping it into BTC, ETH and altcoins.

Then the March 2020 covid crash came. The government in the UK was offering businesses to claim up to x amount (interest free!) depending on your yearly revenue. I managed to claim £50k and put every penny into crypto.

That cycle I round tripped being a millionaire at least 3x.

I found multiple huge runners that I held at a low cap and fumbled on dips.

Ended up making a tonne of mistakes and lessons.

Came out a winner in the end. Somewhere in the region of $900k profit.

And when the bear market came I non-stop studied. Multiple books, trading courses, YouTube videos.

Taking screenshots of trading patterns and putting them on my wall behind my desk.

Learning how to use trading indicators effectively.

I was obsessed. I wanted to get rich so badly. I don't know why, just always been money driven.

And here we are. I can finally look back and say it paid off. But I'm still learning, never ever will I get complacent and think I know enough.
