I won't even narrate any history, I will just say it as it is.
I got involved with cryptocurrency and overwhelmed with the market size and and all the good sides of the story, I didn't waste much time to gain little knowledge about the market, invested in it as anyone else could have, joined trading with little or no knowledge of crypto trading, learning on the trade, grew with the market, supposed to be a sweet experience but otherwise happened. I wasn't frustrated with the constant downtrend of the market, I guess it was my expectations that got it frustrated and eventually all was 1000% losses and I closed all trade without a consolation. But I'm still not giving up, rather looking for how to amend some of my mistakes.

First of all you cannot have a 1000% loss, at most you can lose 100% of your money, second your greatest mistake was trying to trade without any knowledge or experience, this market is not going to let go those mistakes and you cannot learn while doing it, the best thing is that you have not given up, take this as a learning experience and next time try to learn as much as you can before investing or trading.
