When I knew about cryptocurrency I went for research and I discovered Bitcoin and other coins in the market, I went to study the history of Bitcoin and it's growth and I saw how well it was, so I said to my self if Bitcoin can grow this big then I needed to fine a rising coin that has not grown too big and invest my money on it, thinking it will grow as Bitcoin did, this happened 6 years ago.
So I started investing on one shit coin, when ever I receive my salary I divide it into two one for my up keep and the other for my investment, I did this for 4 years and I was so happy because I had faith it will grow as Bitcoin did, one day I checked my wallet and discovered the coin I was investing on for years has dropped I became so scared and sad I asked questions and did some research and discovered every coin fall sometimes and also rise wow that gave me a relief and hope so I continued my investment and same thing happened again I cried, so I stopped investing and started waiting for the day it will rise so I can take back My money and stop, I waited for a year plus and it came up a little, wow I became more hopeful and I decided to leave it a month later it dropped and never came up again till today that was how I lost all my money.
Then I made a vow never to involve my self in any other cryptocurrency investment, this year I meet my old time friend that was involve in cryptocurrency investment we talk and along the line I told him my predicament in crypto he laughed and told me same thing happened to him years ago but then he said the only coin he now invest into is Bitcoin then I asked him since Bitcoin has grown this big will it still grow he said yes and that accumulating it little by little will be the best and before I know it I would have accumulated as may as I can.
So I just started reflecting on how much I have wasted investing on a shit coin and how far I would have gone if I was investing on Bitcoin for that number of years, I became so sad and full of regret.
but i have decided to live the past and start a new journey with Bitcoin this year and right now I have accumulated a little using the DCA method Bitcoin will keep growing so don't give up start a new journey today.
In this crypto industry, we all have our own terrible experience of shit coin in one way or the other as a newbie, though their are some people that got the right orientation earlier, and never had a taste of shit coin as most people did, that's why it's very much beneficial for a newbie investors to know about this forum before starting, because with the kind of knowledge endowed in this forum, he or she is more likely to follow the right part, as long as the person in question is adhering to good Bitcoin investment advice on this forum.
On my own part, I started as a forex trader, I payed for a trading course, which I think help me in acquiring some technical trading knowledge which is very much beneficial to me even till today, after some series of losses, I nearly quit, the only thing that kept me from not quitting is when I think of the huge amount of money I paid to learn it, I just don't want that money to be a waste, so I press on, though I later switch to crypto trading after I saw so many benefits of cryptocurrency, I wasn't a holder to be sincere with you, I only focus on trading because that where I am skilled, it was last year that I came into this forum that I started accumulating Bitcoin, so I never had any terrible losses on shit coin, so in essence is that, it's best you have the right orientation earlier as a newbie, so that you won't even go through such terrible experience that most people goes through.
