Like many of you, I entered the altcoin market with hope although I never take place in holding crypto as I didn't have enough knowledge and also some people get in because they believe on their luck and also they succeed in their plans but in my scenario I think I faded with bad luck these days 🥴 — looking for 2x to 5x gains. I picked coins I believed in, held tight through the dips, and waited for the pump. But reality hit harder than expected. Here’s my full story, straight from the portfolio:

🔻 1. DOT/USDT (Polkadot)

Entry Price: $4.548

Current Price: $3.418

Loss: –24%

PNL: –$4.96

I believed Polkadot had strong fundamentals, a solid team, and long-term potential. It still does — but the price doesn’t reflect that… yet.

🔻 2. HOOK/USDT (Hooked Protocol)

Entry Price: $0.1169

Current Price: $0.0919

Loss: –21%

PNL: –$2.12

HOOK looked like a promising low-cap with upside potential. But like most altcoins in a weak market, it lost momentum fast. Still, I’m holding with patience.

🔻 3. HMSTR/USDT (Hamster Kombat)

Entry From: Listing Day

Current Price: $0.000745

Loss: –70% to -80%

PNL: –$35

Everyone expected a major pump on listing — and yes, it had hype. But now, I’m just holding and watching it bleed slowly. I know how crazy meme coins and new listings can get — they pump hard, but they also dump harder.

🤔 What Now? Hold, Sell, or Double Down?

Across these 3 coins, I’ve lost over 25% of my total investment. It’s not a big dollar amount, but it’s still frustrating. I entered with strategy, but the market had other plans.

I’m now at a crossroads, and I want to hear from the community.

📊 Poll: What’s the best move in this situation?

  • 🤔 Wait & watch – Decide later

  • 🛒 Buy more (DCA) – Low my Avg

🧩 Final Thoughts

Crypto is not just charts and profits — it’s emotions, decisions, patience, and sometimes, pain. Whether you're winning or losing, we all learn something with each move. I'm sharing this to be transparent, not just show green screenshots.

Let’s support each other — tell me what you’d do if you were in my shoes. And if you’re also holding one of these coins, I’d love to hear your story too.

And lastly I invested in $Pi also and soon will post about that too.
