It's complicated because there's a lot of expectation about pricing, but it's interesting at the same time because it allows you lots of life lessons.
Life lessons you get are not due to cryptocurrency, but cryptocurrency can make them 2-3 times more painful)
I personally also have bad memories when I first joined crypto. and maybe now I understand crypto as a profitable investment in the market with coins that I think have the potential and investment in ICO if it is profitable in my opinion so I think your experience will make you even more
All of us do really have that kind of bad memories here on crypto yet not all things we encountered here are on positive ones yet i do believe that most
of us do really experience on being scammed nor lost out huge sums of money but speaking on understanding crypto and how do it works it isnt really complicated
at all yet even just a basic understanding will already give you the hint.
