Been in this space for a while now, and thinking back, I feel kind of lucky. I was more or less all in just before Covid hit, and I almost lost 50% of my net worth back then, but the V-shape comeback from the overall market saved me. Also dodged both the $LUNA and $UST bullet because I withdrew everything 3 days before it went to zero (had 7 fig there).

I wonder how different my journey would have been if I had lost it all back then. I knew I would have found a way back no matter what, but not losing most of my capital in the Luna ecosystem was definitely an advantage going into late 2022 and the start of the new bull run. Compound interest is key, and it allowed me to take bigger risks, which I probably couldn't if I lost most of it.
