Generally we want to learn from you. Its important we review the year and probably correct our mistakes in 2020.


Regards.

I won't say I lost much than I gained, of course I gained much through holding some projects and bounty programs really made me gain much this 2019 depsite the ups and downs in the market.

It's a very simple tip that we have been reading from every crypto expert or experienced in this thing that we shouldn't be greedy. And this year, I didn't became greedy instead if there were profits that I can take, I take it and sell the coins that I have been waiting to sell. I also don't count this year as a lost in crypto, my stash is compose mostly of bitcoin and a few of altcoins and we see that bitcoin is still good despite it fell from $10,000 to $7,000. We're overall good with bitcoin and that's an achievement for me.

I didnt lose any crypto this year but managed after spending some to
increase my wallet amount through saving.

i have had the mindset that the last number of months are good times
to increase my holdings. there will be a time when we will look back
at the current values and wish we had aquired more, much the same
as we would like to travel back in time to 2009!

or 2011 (ltc) or 2013 (eth) or 2014 (dash)

Just getting a little lost last year caused by scammers were creating fake exchange site and fake IEO.
Remember never try to join in crap exchange site just like p2pb2b or something else. when you have sent your money there and it will be so difficult to take back your money to your pocket.
This is also happening with the whole of the scam exchange sites.
Just try to remind everyone about this year those scam exchange sites must dead caused by no volume.

2019 is not really a great year for Cryptocurrency investors and more so for bounty hunters there's hardly a great project to talk about compared to 2017 but it's a much better year than the previous year 2018, 2019 is a good preparation for 2020 and we can analyze old coins from 2019 to see if you have a good chance to make a profit for 2010.

Personally i gained more than i lost (the losses of course came when i was beginning to learn how to trade)
- My biggest achievement was that i learnt how to trade much better and it helped me make profits in the last half of 2019
- I also completely stopped investing in ICOs, IEOs or even waste any of my time with them.

I wont say is a great year at all but truth is i learn some lessons along the way I lost some coin and some worthless bounties i followed this year wont be repeated again I just hope 2020 will be much more busier with many project and coins coming up..Also is good to see how this whole halfing takes its turn

I have made mistakes in year 2019 and I am ready to check and amend those mistakes, most especially the loopholes. I have learnt my lessons from them and I believe I will not repeat them again. I also now have the determination to be courageous.

I got a bit greedy with leveraged trading towards the latter half of 2019, though I'm still very profitable at the moment mostly due to my riding the way up from 3K to $13k with leveraged longs on Bitmex. One of the better things I've done in 2019 would probably be not overly investing in altcoins, since most of 'em have been slowly declining in their USD and Bitcoin pairs. ICOs and IEOs have never been a problem for me, since I haven't been interested in them for almost two years and my trading and investing style has drastically changed since then.

Many side have to review from 2019 and make new chance with 2020 to get much profit again, stop doing the same mistake from investing on bad ICO or IEO until how to manage our trading coin assets, I hope with new year give chance for us become better what have I did with last year and my lucky always beside me with getting profit by investing and trading.

To lose in 2019 there is almost nothing. When compared to 2018 I almost lost half of my assets because of the damn ico.
But for something I have achieved in 2019 it is possible the confidence to re-dive into the world of crypto. Of course, with caution in stepping especially in choosing where to invest.
This year also income from crypto is not too bad for me, especially airdrops from good coins such as XLM, KLAY and NRG. Hopefully 2020 the situation will improve. And it became the year of crypto part II lol

2019 is quite hard to do trading cryptocurrency. Most coins going down like no bottom
Bitcoin movement have major catalist to affect many altcoins. It makes altcoin down when Bitcoin price moves
There is no big bull run in this year. Just small pump. At least, it is a good sign to pump in the next year

Like many victims of the p2pb2b exchange because I often see complaints about the exchange, I just don't like it when there is an IEO on p2pb2b because it doesn't make a good contribution because many projects fail because IEO there somehow many investors don't believe about the exchange so many projects die because of them, I have also made deposits to p2pb2b and cannot withdraw due to some reason so it was a mistake and never used the exchange p2pb2b.

In 2019 made me invest in IEO and new projects, then I tried to hold altcoin which has a real product and hold several other altcoins in new exchanges, ironically the exchange is now closed and some of my assets are still there. This situation will be a lesson valuable to me and will not be repeated

I think an important lesson for lot of uns here would be 'Hold More', in my scenario i spend more than the 90% of btc i receive this year, i should hold more and in this point, i would be taking a nice vacation right now. But is hard for some of us to nos spend the money when we already have it in our wallets.

the mistake I made in 2019 was not immediately selling the ICO token that I got from participating in the signature campaign project. at that time I was optimistic that the tokens that I obtained would be successful and long-lasting coins in the crypto market. but in reality after two increases the token continues to decrease and ends up being shitcoin. I'm very sorry why I didn't immediately sell my coins when the coins had gone up. from this incident I got a better lesson if we get a gift token we immediately sell it or exchange it for bitcoin. I think this will be better.

In 2019, my experience in cryptocurrency, I don't have much business, I just divided myself into three stages and bought separately, and now I am still losing money, so in a bear market, investors never know when Bottom rebound, although now we are facing investment failure, but I think the price will rise in 2020, which may bring me a considerable return. At that time, I thought the investment was right.

we really have to keep growing and correcting mistakes beforehand. without doing that, we will not be able to do better than last year, so we must continue to make corrections or it might be better if it is done once a month to improve ourselves

The best thing I Acquired in 2019 was the experience on investing in some projects, both time and money. In those cases you need to have some knowledge of where to put your money and also you need to have a lot of patience to do so. because waiting to earn a decent profit in holding some altcoins, is a real deal. You need to wait for months, to begin with, and FYI you need to gather enough knowledge on when you sell your Altcoins and when to buy some.

I lost some and gain some but what I really lost is not really the money but lost efforts and hopes on projects that I've promoted that turn out to be useless, some of these projects are Adab, Bitmillex, IronX Weidex, I spend months promoting these projects, only for developers to leave investors and bounty hunters with nothing but only false hopes.

In 2019, I got a lot of experience, don't trust too much in the new project because they all indicated that they failed, so only some of them survived.
IEO was very profitable at the beginning of his emergence but eventually lost and was not in demand anymore.
I made a mistake because of holding some ALT for a long time and the price dropped above 90%, only save alt which really has potential, do short trading for coins that are pumping and dumping.

The saddest thing that happened to me in 2019 related to cryptocurrency was that I invested in a project that promised that everything would be fine, and successfully closed after a month, I lost about 14 ETH, although I could scroll this money myself. There will be a lesson for life. Everything else suits)

Actually 2019 was a great year for me, even with the dwindling crypto market. I learnt patience in trading and trained myself to avoid greed since I set sell at low profit margins mostly 10% is OK by me. I also learnt that what works for someone else might not work for me, hence I tested different trading techniques before knowing the best for me (mid term trading). I have many things to say but time won't permit me.

Last year, as usual, we all had losses and gains, maybe a little, maybe a lot. There have been negative developments such as increases in the number of scammers, the deification of a sales type such as IEO, and the unprofitable bounties. But the most important positive theme is mass adoption, every day this is progressing even more. Leaving 1 year behind means development 1 year on this matter. So, we are still here and think this year will be much better. Cheers for 2020!

2019, or maybe 2018-2019, i pick a lot of wrong bounty campaigns. So, some of their tokens still on my wallet until now. Maybe my mistakes is not do more analysis and maybe too much ask my friends what is good project to join. About trading and gambling not really much so maybe i don't have reviews about it. Maybe in 2020 i will keep do signature campaign, and learn about trading and then try to do casual trading again.

To sum things up for my year 2019 in crypto, nothing much special. Just something normal with different yet small ups and downs. But what I wanna do for 2020 is to improve myself for the opportunities I've wasted last year. I want to be open for more opportunities to learn and discover more here in crypto. And to be more strategic in holding and managing my coins because I believe that this year we will receive an increase with the price.

2019 made it clear to us that we most likely will not see the same situation as it was in 2017 and will not be able to earn 1000 percent on altcoins. Now we must change our strategy and constantly adapt to our complex market. those people who think that it is possible to get easy money and quick profit here will leave this market as quickly as they come.

I have earned little doing bounties, the only thing that I regret was the doubt that I felt when my coin was worth about 1000 USD but I did not sell, since I am greedy I want more and the result turns out bad. Now it is just worth some pennies and hoping that it could achieve even just half of the last price that it was suppose to be. Lesson learned? Don't be to greedy, this is common in the crypto industry since we or most of us here wanna become big time in jsut a short amount of time, well that isn't reality, face the truth and don't be foolish.

cryptocurrency conditions in 2019 are starting to look bad because there may have been many people who have tried to make cryptocurrency conditions worse, one of them is by using lots of ICOs and fundraising which has the aim to deceive people and even hacking cryptocurrency that occurs everywhere so make cryptocurrency worse.

Remember this when there was a platform or project that gives you so many promises if everything will go smooth without getting any problem and that's BS. The shillers or developers just wanna make sure if you are feeling confident until you are putting your money on the project and the scammer can run away with your money. This can be the basic learning about how to avoid the scammer and never try to believe anyone. Just try to believe in your self and you can ask others to get more opinions about the project.

The mistake that is often made is wrong in predicting prices. such as an increase in BTC and a decrease in ETH around May last year. can you imagine how dumped my assets are when BTC rises suddenly? ... so I hope in 2020 to be able to accurately predict prices

actually, at the end of the year, I plan to collect 0.5 bitcoin, but I can't achieve that. I think that is a target that I cannot achieve. while for other achievements, maybe for the early years, I pretty much learned and got crypto assets, it's just that I use it instantly. I really learned a lot in 2019 in the world of business, especially crypto.

I lost much money in 2019 because of too greedy in trading. I have much profit in May, but i just want more and refuse to sell until my balance go to low. My lesson is always decide which is hold and which is trade, always set target, cut loss is always necessary, dont try to hold a lose trade order.  :-\

I won big with some obviously worthless shitcoins, but then i wanted to play more with markets and while i got back profit i put most of them back in swing trades and lost a lot.
My lesson was that sometimes it's better to just walk away with profits and don't look back. If you get profits, they aren't necessary because you are some genius who plays the markets. You just might got lucky.

For 2019 I got a lot of unpaid bounties, so I didn't get income in 2019. In my opinion, 2019 is a year that is not very good in crypto, and my trade also does not get a satisfactory profit. Many ICO projects did not get much funding, so ICO projects became lethargic. So I want to avoid unfavorable events like 2019.

I got into some more detailed ways of working for crypto, I was happy with how 2019 happened and I am taking them with me to 2020, I am working both smart and hard so it allows me to be able to make more money now, in 2018 life was a bit bad because it was the first time I got unemployed for so long and making money on crypto was very very difficult, so I worked really hard and didn't made that much money, in 2019 I made more money (inflation killed most of it) and now in 2020 I will be making even more, hopefully I will have a year where my economy goes better in crypto world that I will save a lot of altcoins aside.

Best investment for me so far has been waves I suppose, it is really a new wave of coin that came into my life and changed the way I send/receive money.

My biggest regret in 2019 is buying Quarkchain tokens in antiipating that the price would pumped during their Mainnet release but the price dumped from 1000sat to less than 100sat at the moment, though I cut my loss at 500sat.

The best decision in 2019 was buying BTC when it was $3500

actually in my opinion in 2019 there is nothing special that happens in the cryptocurrency market. the crypto market moves as usual up and down. and I think it tends to decrease. bitcoin had increased in the middle of the year but then continued to decline until yesterday yesterday the price of bitcoin was stable at the level of $ 7k. the good thing I got in 2019 was that I could increase the amount of bitcoin I had by working on the airdrops project.

Fair enough than 2018.

Anyway going back to the topic itself, I don't gained as much as I expect to, just got a decent portfolio back in 2019 for me to freshly start 2020 compared to 2018 where I even think of getting away to crypto but I supposed not to hoping for a better settlement in the incoming and following years. What I am thankful in 2019 is that, I keep myself on my track to achieve this personal of goal of mine, and I hope that I won't this 2020 because of much more responsibilities 'cause I grow older but I hope that it won't have affect my crypto space life.

The thing that I did this 2019 is hold all of my coin as long as possible since some predictions is saying that the price of bitcoin will not gonna rise that much. But when the time that btc rises, I sell some of my coins and I forgot that I should have hold it longer. I forgot that halving is gonna happen soon and that is my biggest regrets after all.

Throughout 2019 I did not achieve the altcoin profit target as I had hoped, but I am still grateful because I still benefited although not only slightly.
Hopefully in 2020 all those who invest in altcoin can get what they expect, because many members of this forum work from cryptocurrency.

The main change imo is people's attitudes towards small cap coins.

They used to be incredibly hyped up and sought after, but now demand has subsided significantly. Nobody is dumb enough to believe in the hype of these projects anymore, to be it bluntly. As a result, a lot of the ICOs that are currently running are struggling to raise funds.

I guess my personal change in response to this wider, macro change is putting less emphasis on soughting out new projects, because there is simply a sore lack of quality ones.

I hold a token from translation bounty rewards, actually at first it is quite high in value. But i only sell some of it and hold rest of it for longer time. Glad i already sell some because the price is really cheap for now. My mistake maybe hold tokens for longer time and expect for high price and then sad because of it. And maybe some people suffer same thing too.

I gained quite well on IEOs in 2019, well, not every IEOs though. But still, few I've joined were good enough and reached quite the ROI. I also did some holding for a few altcoins and you could say few of them bear some fruit.

And it's a bit embarrassing to tell about what kind of mistake I was making through last years and how much losses at that time. From the look of my past experience from last year only, I need to learn to fully control my emotions. It's a lot harder than it looks actually.

You're still lucky, compared to past ieo I've joined, I wasn't able to earn whay I expected. Joining IEO is not a good thing to me.

That is actually the hardest part in crypto, you shouldn't be embarassed. Actually even I have that kind of personality, and for sure there are lots of people out there have the same issue.

2019 is average for the community, no big hype and no big dump in the market, but there are so many hacks and so many scams projects, if we want to correct our mistakes, then we have to be more aware and to educate ourselves on every project that are coming in the community, 2020 if we are aware of these happenings then, we need to correct it by educating ourselves.

We may not change the past so let it pass but it must be remembered we can still change the future with what we do now.
The crypto world in 2019 left many memories because there was a significant increase in the middle of 2019 on the price of bitcoin.
And many IEOs are able to accelerate very quickly but cannot maintain their position and fall very deep.

I didn't really set much crypto goal. Setting New year goals is good, but you have to factor in the possibility of changing/altering your goal to improve it or adapt it to your changing environment.
So, I will make sure I write my goals with a pencil next time. And build things that are easy to alter and improve. The most important thing is to have your goal founded on solid foundation (ideology/principle) in order not to derail during challenging times

To be honest my 2019 is not good as compared to 2017. Both 2018 and 2019 are full of bad memories and experience. Most of the bounty i joined failed. Didnt get any reward. Maybe i got only 500$ from 2018 and 2019.

It is very important to learn from the mistakes of the past, and it is also important to fix them so that all normal will be appropriate. The journey is still long, innovations continue to emerge and competition is tight we do not just watch but come to feel the sensation in the construction of any existing innovation.

Well, I finally found someone like me. I also tried to buy QKC at 800 sts and waited for the mainnet to come from them. As a result, the QKC is now only 40 sts and it may even drop in 2020. It was a wrong investment decision for me in 2019 and now I have to suffer it. I don't know until QKC has a new bull run, and it seems the project has been less active compared to before. I hope it doesn't die because I have invested most of my money in this project

Indeed, last year will be remembered with scam projects, IEOs, a good increase in BTC's price, and weaker performance of altcoins. These changes had negative and positive effects that were not caused by us. Gain, loss and blah blah. The main thing is that we have learned a lot about crypto and continue to do. The market is still alive and our hope is huge.

Just remember to sell them all when you are getting decent amount from there. the speculation market makes the price of crypto is really volatile that makes you can lose it instantly. I was getting the same experience in the past and i just learned to sell anything that i have when i was in the profit.
This is happened with majority of the hunters.

I get enough income because I really do not do much and do something so this makes me quite sorry, but also I suffered losses but not greater than what I got. But my expenses this year have been very large from my income and this is very bad for me.

I don't lose any money in 2019 compared to that of 2018 but I did lose my time on bounties that turned to pennies in value, I learnt to always go after well established crypto projects and get rid of wanting huge money

I have achieved a freedom where I can be wherever I want and still work, I managed to make money on a ferry while going to another city, I made money while I was on a vacation looking at a beautiful waterfall, I managed to work in so many awesome places, I seriously made money while I was campaigning for an election for example (which I lost). So, it was a good year economically in the sense that I was tied to no one and made a decent amount of money.

However, it was a bad year because bitcoin didn't ended up going up like it showed promised to, back in April it started to go up and I thought we were going for a new all time high and price will continue soaring but it ended up losing 50% value.

Well, that is bitcoin for you isn't it, in the same year we are both 100% higher than we started the year but also 50% down from the peak.

Early bitcoin investors of january 2019 are the only one that will have something good to share, there is no good news but I am in great health thank God, I believe this year will be better than 2019 overall

2019 has passed and many bad things have happened to cryptocurrencies. Although everything has tried its best, it could not be better. including old altcoins or new projects that disappointed investors. :(

I was very disappointed in the cryptocurrency market for the past year. The results that I achieved were failures in investment. I'm still not selling out to wait for the magic this year.

in 2019, although my investment did not yield as much as expected. And in 2020, everything will be different. trust me.

Never met my expectations but it's all good, wasted most of my time on projects that never get listed on exchange till today and most projects that looks promising are not keeping their promises, they keep postponing everything, hope this year will be different

In that year the price got some value but it not gave us the amount which we expected and for which we all are waiting from 2018 but the year 2019 showed us that in the coming year 2020 we will see the value for which we are waiting. For me that year was good because in 2018 I earned nothing because of almost dead market while in this year the trading was better a little bit and I got some profit in this year.

in 2019 there were a lot of difficulties for each of us. speaking about my mistakes, the most important thing from my side was to try to trade on Bitmex. several times in my life I have made similar mistakes and this year was one of the most serious. I lost a lot of money and now I understand that such high risks are not for me.

As usual, too complacent with developer's  promise that the token will listed in bigger exchange. And it end with maybe decreased more than 70% from ICO price. But i know that is my mistake and that is risk that i must accept because hold token or not is user's choice.

I held the whole year. Lost about 66%. It's ok, I just couldn't get into. Lack of motivation, understanding of what to do.

For me, 2019 was a year to simplify my cryptocurrency holdings. At one point last year i was invested in about 15 different coins and tokens. I decided to sell most of them and put that investment into a few key projects that I feel pretty good about.

I would like to say, the space is still full with people that are dreaming and hoping for price gain instead of understanding the real use case of Blockchain
This is pretty dissapointed because like my friend, he doesn't want to learn about the coin

Even he wanted to trade, he's lazy to understand the fundamental, and also technical chart
This is awful to say but the crypto field is filled with lazy people who just wanted quick gain

Trading is not that easy for quick bucks for those who are saying that trading is easy money, it really needs more time, effort, determined, patience and sometimes losing some of your funds before you will finally earned from it, so let's just leave our laziness and procrastination from the year 2019 and let's start our journey again in the year 2020 with full power. 

If we compare 2019 with 2017 clearly very much different, 2017 is a very profitable year for all of us and if only what happened in 2017 could be repeated again then I would not hesitate to sell all the coins I have. And when compared with 2018, 2019 is arguably better because in 2019 I personally can still make a profit even though it is not in large numbers and in 2019 it is the right year for us to prepare our next steps in order to survive in cryptocurrency.

no achievement in 2019, investment falling, losing in trading, and unpaid bounties, supplemented by a bounty campaign with a low exchange rate is something that happened in 2019. is there something similar to me? if so, this is not the end of everything, there are still tokens that can be hope in 2020 and the crypto market will definitely rise.

It's the reason why some of us are in doubt to invest in new projects because you can't assure yourself that your money is safe and secured from scammers, it gives me trust issues regarding my own decision because I admit that it was my mistake for trusting it without thinking. As a consequence, I have to suffer and accept the negative outcomes of my actions which is losing some of my money. Now, I finally understand that we have to be cautious before investing our money because one mistake can make your funds wasted for nothing. You have to think and consider things so that you will not end up feeling remorse regarding your own decisions, it's a sad experience but I know that I can't do anything but to accept the fact that my money is gone. You will literally feel hopeless after all of your sacrifices, time and effort to earn that money, I know it is not too late to start again. Despite of that experience I was able to learn my lesson that will guide me and improve me as an investor. my 2019 is not good but it gives me challenges that helped me to build a better version of me.

Everyone must have experienced mistakes before and this can be used as a lesson for all of us to be more careful and not in a hurry in making decisions, and for the bounty itself it can be said that in 2019 there are many bounties that are less profitable or arguably some of the bounties the project actually failed and we all certainly hope that this year will be different and will be a profitable year.

2019 was a bad year for me and those investing in altcoin. The market in 2019 is really boring, only BTC increased in 2019, while all altcoins crash every day. In 2019, I lost more than 45% of my investment budget, hoping that by 2020 the altcoin market will improve a bit and help me recover my previous losses.

In my experiences last year 2019, I gain some in bounty but its just small amount and some gain from my altcoin holdings, but in contrary to my trading results because im losing some of my money in my trading sessions last year and because of that reality i already change my strategy for 2020 and continue to explore more profitable form of crypto investment of which i can afford to prevent the same thing happen last year in 2019 its just a minimal losses but still its a loss to count.

Every person has motivation in his life, even though he sometimes loses assets and loses his hopes, because that can be used as a valuable lesson for the future. Stay motivated and continue to make research so that you no longer experience the same thing.

We have the same problem in crypto market, such as lost, stuck and scam. People has different story about this but I believe we can take valuable lesson and keep grow up with our skill and fund. The important thing is about mindset, as long you can take care your brain from negative thinking I'm sure you can keep going. Complaint will never give us something but keep grow up with market will create better life.

2019 was a great one in crypto, it was a year with very little gain, I can't say I lost at all but there was much stress for me.i did very few bounty campaign too because there were very few good projects and the market was just boring. I achieved improvement in my posts quality and I also invested more. An have no regret.

There are no big happenings last 2019 as the market is in bad condition and the projects are keep on declining. What I lost last 2019 is my work as my clients are in sleeping mode therefore my earnings are also sleeping.

I haven't achieve much in 2019 so I can't share more with regards to achievement but I am still happy that I earn few bucks in signature campaigns and other bounty campaigns that became successful.

This year had been a roller coaster ride for me. I had earned a decent amount of crypto through the campaigns that I have joined to, however, I have lost a decent amount of money when I panic whenever the price goes down. This will be a good lesson for me and hoping this year will be a productive year for me.

That is the common experience of most crypto users/bounty hunter, even I have experienced this. Instead of keeping my calm during 2019, I have become too weak to hold and believe in crypto, since then, I have realized the things I need to do when the market comes. That way, I might have more opportunities to earn from my holdings.

I also made the same mistake where I did not think too much about the project and I participated in the project based on the advice of my friend, because I believed in what my friend said so I did not observe about the project and when in the middle of the road, the project it turns into a scam and takes away money from investors. This is indeed my fault for not observing and analyzing it myself and being too hasty in making decisions.

last year is one of the worse years for crypto and i know many will agree with me
but the good things is we already survive from the crash or even in the bear market that was a good experience

Well I just managed to minimize my addiction to gambling. I kind think of. I wasn't going all out like what I was before, and I wasn't wasting my whole damn time in that. I just managed to somehow control my addiction and my time as well. And I hoping to continue this on this 2020. In addition I want to re-aligned my goals as I was a bit off track with it.

My mistake was probably buying back a few more of the alts I held, with BTC!

I am always Bitcoin first and alts later but I thought perhaps with prices so low, there was time to get back more of my losses, and put a bit of my btc into alts. I luckily stopped doing that by July but it was kind of too late, Bitcoin went up and alts kept going down;)

So, you basically choose alts than btc to hold, don't worry I also did the same and that was my biggest mistake I did. Instead of receiving my expected profit, I end up having more losses and still holding till to date. This year, I will correct that mistake and I will take back my losses.

I do lost money but i gain more experience back, many altcoins keep going down and keep buying the dips hoping that altcoin will recover but not any time soon, it's not even certain that altcoins will recover this year

2019 continued my losing streak of my crypto assets from the previous years. My regret is not selling when I still have a little gain from my investment. Now most of my altcoin (except the top ones) are valueless. I have learned now that not to be greedy and sell if I get already some substantial gains from my crypto investments.

I'll make a long-term plan in 2020. I think the altcoin market is very convenient for making purchases. I'm enthusiastic about the low prices. A new story may begin. Maybe we'il have a new bull season. This time bitcoin does not remain alone. The whole market can rise.

I also lose, but still in earning. I mean some of my investments were from 2017 bounties hype, so when it declined in price and I just hold it till last year when I already sell some since it seems no point in waiting. I just learned to set realistic amount in my investment once they almost hit that return then better convert it into fiat to invest in business or invest in much potential altcoin.

You have a good mindsetting. I really like your strategies thank you for sharing your thoughts. I can apply that on my own. And I just wanna say that you are lucky because you dont lose money last year. :( I lost some of my bitcoins and also my account because the admins in some of my forums tricked me. They banned my account and accused me of using multiple accounts even though I'm not. They didn't give me tha chance to withdraw my coins there and that incident is very traumatic for me.

Only mistakes I've committed last 2019 is still hoping that ICO is still profitable when it's not already, people should turn their attention on coins that are already in the market, even those who look legit with huge hype and promotion, are not a guaranty that they can become profitable and make good in the market, we can say good ICO in 2019,

Well, for me, year 2019 has been a year full of expectations that are not fulfilled. Why? Because many have expected that due to that fact that it's been a decade (10 years) since the creation of Bitcoin, prediction have been made that 2019 will be a great year for Bitcoin's rise up again but it seems to go into another way. Bitcoin remains its price declination which we have observed until the late months of 2019. What I think became the relevance or importance of this happening is that we have learned to be patient and have tighten our hold into our Bitcoins while waiting for the expected increase in year 2019 which I think will all be worth it this year 2020 because of another expected rise due to the upcoming Bitcoin halving that is expected to take a positive after effect of boosting the price of Bitcoin as well as the Altcoins that based their prices into it.

2019 wasn't a great year for me. I stopped doing bounties due to the fact there's no good projects to join with. There's only a few who pays good, others are abandoned projects because of lack of investors. I was lucky enough to get a job as an ambassador for Harmony for 3 mons. That was a great experience for me.

Yes, where there are Altcoins there will be hope to see some good changes. I know crypto altcoins make rise and fall so in this investment I got to know that market will never remain the same in crypto. When more people will buy and hold so the price Will increase but if more people will sell it will dip. That’s why we should buy more and hold instead of selling for panic.

2019 has really been a good year for me and have been able to know more and impact myself on Cryptocurrency. Though the beginning of 2019 has been rough after buying a token and having to sell it off to cater for my needs but late 2019 I really thank God for the bounties here in bitcointalk. I have been able to make some funds to meet ends need.

The problem is distractions and everyday problems. They steal your energy. If I can simply it then I can spend more time taking action when my portfolio needs me to.

I think the lesson I learned in 2019 was to sell altcoin which did not have a large transaction volume because it was potentially detrimental. The fall in prices for many altcoins in 2019 provides a lesson that not all altcoins are worthy of being used as investment tools

Well, what I can say about year 2019 is that it is a really tough year that challenges the way I think and perceive cryptocurrency itself. It make me see myself if I can stand continuing my cryptocurrency journey despite of the happenings like the down fall of all the prices of cryptocurrencies within the market. I have also learned to let go of unworthy Altcoins and buy worthy and potential coins out of the earnings I have got from selling those unworthy coins and started investing into more Bitcoin and some top Altcoins and hold them until such time. Good thing that I have strengthen my mind not to sell my assets and not to fall into promising projects because of desperation to earn since it just urns out to be scam projects. What I learned from year 2019 become my basis on what I will do and don't for this year 2020 in which I do hope be a prosperous year for cryptocurrency.

My main mistakes since the 19th year were that I was too trusting in some aspects of trading, such as trusting funds and using trading bots.
I also burned several times about the use of paid trading signals because of my impatience.
2019 taught me that patience is one of the most important functionally dependent qualities that every player in the crypto market should have.

In addition, I realized that the market is controlled not by free processes, but by skillful hands.

Even if I agree there is some level of manipulation going on at the same time this is true in all the markets and there are still many traders making profits every year, what you need to do is to find a way to be profitable despite the manipulations of the market.

I know this is not easy but at least you have gone through several learning experiences, you failed with paid signals and you failed using bots as well, the truth is that the only way to improve your trading skills is by reading a lot of books and then test that knowledge against the markets, I know it is time consuming but if you want profits it has to be done.

2019 was a normal year for me and there was a pretty bad deal for me to believe in scammers. I believed in the WPP project and invested in it over $ 2k. its price was down miserably and now I'm just getting back $ 700 and I'm going to lose the rest. My experience is never to believe in projects that promise only and don't do anything on the roadmap. The WPP team had promised to list it on Coinbene and Huobi Korea but they cheated investors by postponing it and gradually removing it from the list and giving silly reasons. Please exit the investment if the team has any of the above signs.

My focus is on Bitcoin value for a while now and I'm kindly unhappy with the huge price drop but, I'm more interested in the rewards I will earn from many bounty projects I promoted in 2019 that haven't pay yet, for me 2019 haven't turn very good to me and I hope 2020 will be better

2019 was actually a year of high expectations for me.  I was expecting some pumps on some coins I was holding and I was expecting good pay bounties. However, it was only about 30% of the expectations that came through.  I participated in a lot of bounty campaigns and airdrops, but many of them did not pay as expected.  With all these discouragements, I cannot forget projects like smartfund, dabanking and few others that made 2019 worthwhile for me.
