What is the riskiest or most unconventional action you have taken in order to purchase Bitcoin during its early stages, despite the lack of guarantees or promises that it would appreciate in value?
I put a 10k rupees from my saving of just 20k into crypto. I was a student and thought crypto is the only thing that can make me rich. I was correct but the methodology was wrong. Instead of going with bitcoin or some major crypto i went on to put this 10k into a ICO and ended up losing the money eventually but I really consider it as an entry fees to this market as it taught me a lot of valuable lessons which ultimately helped me make money.
Its not a loss if you have learned what mistake you have committed and you will never do that again. Everyone of us has to pay something sooner or later to learn how things work in crypto. Without bearing any financial loss we can never learn. I myself got scammed/hacked before figuring out that hacks are real in crypto world and I need to be aware of hacking attempts. Before getting hacked, my point of view was there is no such things a hacking and no one can steal your bitcoin.
