Yeah dont worry mate. Just try invest when the market bottoms out in the next year or 6 months. You cant look back. I started with 3000 btc I bought for 3k USD back in 2012. All the hype never really happened and I was not into trading back then nor did btc have real charts to look at. I then managed to get around 600 btc saved in mtgox - and yep - it all got taken by MK the ultra D. The whole industry is so scammy. Then compliance now blocks all you funds if kept on an exchange. I dont ever hold I always sell at good prices and wait to get back in. I was such a believer back then but now if I'm honest I think the NSA's sha256 being used in btc is a big giveaway. CDBC would never be implementable unless crypto/btc came first. I crypto is a plan to get everyone working digital and then the central banks can enforce CDBC on all exchanges. Compliance and KYC of crypto is ten times worse than a strict bank. Its easier to pay 30k cash in a bank then it is to deal with the BS Kraken and other exchanges ask for these days. So I am also in my own way fed up of bitcoin. Wish I had just put away 3000 btc and left it for ten years but who knew? Every up swing you get the hype boys like Keiser the CIA man manipulating demand and the price calling 500k - it then dumps.
Hope you enjoyed my rant. Best of luck. Now you know to get in cheap and get out when prices are crazy high.
