It all started with the Bitcoin crash in 2017. I thought, "What the hell did I get myself into?" All the money I put into Bitcoin last year was down 80%.
I am quite ambiguous with this sentence and put aside your long story because we know that in 2017 bitcoin reached ATH because at that time they broke the price of $17k at the end of 2107 how did you lose about 80 percent of the money you invested? are you sure this is in bitcoin because indirectly when we talk rationally it is impossible when bitcoin reaches ATH you actually get a very large loss.
I did not read your whole story which is very long but indeed for the initial paragraph of the story you gave I was very interested in discussing this.
