Here i am going to discussed worst cases. Because lot of people adopting to Crypto space and some getting more and some ended up with nothing.
back 2017 i have no experience and new so some execution not got timely.
My worst experience was Not exit at the correct time. there was a ICO it gave me 10X. (6500USD) but i did not exit at the correct time so it went for 400usd.
I sent ETH to unknown escrow. 200$ lost. scammers
Not aware of USDT. Its a very bad experience.
Not concern about Technical analysis.
so today i have massive experience so i know how to play the game. Lets share experiences so enrich newbies knowledge.
Cheers
Yes back in 2017 so many scam and ICO mania become the biggest ponzi scheme like tulip fever. Its no different with this year which many moon and dog coin that launch which promise you to get a profit by doing it together. I think most people never learn and think crypto as a way to get a fast money and they do trying the luck that they have and i do think its completly wrong and a flaw in crypto investors. My experience in 2017 is worst like yours, i lose almost 80% of my asset but luckily i manage to get a lot profit from coin that i hold.
