Hi guys,

For those who are familiar with the Not coin tap tap game, I made two mistake which have made me loss good amount of money.

First mistake
I got introduced to the game early, like 2 to 3 weeks after the game was first launched, I ignored it seeing it as something more of a child's play,, I watched the number of players increased from almost zero to millions, I started to pick interest but still did not make up my mind to join, later on, I signed up but never played the game until about two weeks to launch, I started playing later on, I was able to earn around 7,500 Notcoins in total.

Second mistake
After the launch, I withdrew my 7,500 Notcoins to bybit, I watch the price rise to $0.012  but didn't sell, I was waiting for a higher price, eventually, price started to fall and it got to a point, I could no longer bear, I sold it all at around 0.004 for around $40 usdt, and like 4 to 5 days after selling, the price of Notcoin began to rise again, and today it's currently at $0.0226 per coin, my 7,500 Notcoin would have worth $170 now, but I gave it away for $40.
What a shame on me.. 🥺

It is an altcoin with huge volatility and people are only gambling with it. Invest the amount of money that you can afford to lose on such coins and forget it there until you see profit, provided if there is profit because you can be expecting profit but loss may be the outcome instead.

Like the above said Notcoin is too volatile because there are lots of people who receive it for free and I guess they sold theirs too because they are satisfied with the price but still there are many people are holding Notcoin look at the community they made its a huge community and I believe there are still many of them holding a large amount of Notcoin that they earn from tapping(Usually who use auto clickers). Once they hit the target they gonna dump it.

Honestly, since you didn't spend on that coin you still got it for free and made a profit. Me, I heard about this tapping game free airdrops but I ignored it because I believe it won't ever be listed on any exchange but I regret so you should be glad even if it is a small amount you still made a profit by just tapping.

Sorry about fumbling your bag, OP. The bad news is that it would take a while before you'll be able to move on fully from your regrets of not taking enough action and also for selling your bags for cheap. The good news is that, it would get better with time as it happens to the lot of us. I'm sharing my experience with you so you can feel better. I had a notcoin long opened around $0.00507 with a nice leverage (10x) and margin and then panic closed the trade and almost immediately, notcoin started pumping and the price did a 5.5x increase in less than a week. That's a 55x profit that I missed that would have netted me a nice, 5 digits profit but I fumbled the trade. I feel a lot better now and you will as well because there are going to be plenty more opportunities and you need to be there to snag them.

I also have received around 7500 NOT coins, at the very beginning of this project, honestly nobody would believe they will reach this much attention and success, it is a useless project and Telegram bot, without any significant marketing, this project received huge support and built a very significant community and much players joined and liked the simple Idea.
After launching their coin, the price was falling very bad from the strong power of sellers, I also decided to sell some of that quantity knowing I have bought another quantity of WNOT which later I could exchange to NOT.
It was also a mistake from me to even sell that quantity on the price around 0.015$/NOT

The lesson here is to not underestimate any project for his look and ideas as long as the community is large and supportive, that project can be successful and more than anyone can ever guess.

Why did you think about the days you sold the NOT coin op? Did you think that its market price would continue to fall? or you panicked, so you immediately sold it at a loss. Don't you know that karmihan here, who are used to that style of behavior of cryptos, is that when the price value drops, they take advantage of the price to buy at a cheap price, and the price capital amount that they allocate is just fine to lose to them.

Even I do the same thing, and when it was listed on Binance, I also bought NOT at a price of 0.012$ each. Then,  when it was listed on the exchange, it dropped to 0.004$ and 0.005$, and instead of worrying me, I bought even more at this low price because I knew that was their strategy, and now that it has gone up, I am a pro, and at the same time, I still have holdings for now.

There are other people who are more unfortunate than you. I heard there are people on fb who sold it @$0.0018 each. And this thing is common anyway when you sell your coin in low then price goes up

I know how shameful it is but that's not shame but a regret because you aren't able to sell it at its peak. Well, you have no capital on it in terms of money but your time was used for you to get that 7500 notcoins. I've got friends that are able to get good amount of it but just as you, they've sold early because that's free money for it. You still got $40 out of nothing but your effort, so if this is a lesson for you. It only means that if you believe in a project, you will stay longer but if not, you have to dump it asap before it dumps you first and get nothing. This is very normal when you're not expecting it to blow a lot but it did, so just be grateful that you're still able to have something from it while others don't have anything.

Notcoin reached its all time high of 0.02 USD just a few days ago hence why many of its investors have sold their holdings since. Notcoin continues to be the most trending altcoin so it’s no surprise that its growth is easily becoming the biggest this year in terms of altcoins.
Having a game incorporated into the project garnered a lot of interested investors, it’s also very strong with social media as it is one of the most talked about token in multiple platforms. Now that it has reached its ath, this could go two ways: either it pushes past the resistance level and reach 1 USD or it doesn’t and it continues to decline signaling an end of a token.

Personally I don’t want to run and try to catch some profit anymore. Sometimes you need to accept that it’s already too late to hop on a project and move on.

Well me too. I f*cked up on passing this kind of tap tap game. I really didn't think that this kind of game would have a decent price on the launch but I'm sure there are many people like me who are upset on not trying this game even not registering on the game. The notcoin wave really put tap tap copy cat game into action, I can see new copycat concept daily hoping that they can achieve notcoin success but I don't think so. The crypto community is crazy that those who hates this kind of taptap games somehow regret on not even trying. Lucky you that you had some allocation received but remember it is still free money even if you sold at lower prices. Just take it as a lesson and move on.

The first mistake is quite common as no one throught that the tap game will become so big and many will join the game in a short time. For your second mistake again after the initial dump no one again expected the coin to pump so much. As I have been said earlier that the predicted price was $0.001 after the initial dump. It has surpassed beyond the predicted price which is a suprise for many like us.

I never acquired an abundance of Notcoins, I only acquired a few through Binance's Launchpool. As a project, I could hardly call it successful, I was averaging $40-$50, while Notcoin yielded a few bucks at best. This is the reason I didn't sell my coins,  I hoped that eventually it would raise in value. Anyway, we've all been in this situation at some point or another, it also occurred to me with several Binance's Launchpool projects and had I taken advantage of them, I would have made a much larger profit now.

I have been using Binance for many years but I have never benefited from any of their launchpool programs even when all my friends would receive. I don't actually know what's wrong or is it because I don't complete tasks. They would ask me to complete some tasks to earn from a certain pool but I will always ignore.

For the Notcoin, the likes of it, I always miss out because I don't do airdrops or any tap or mining. It was because of my ugly experience with altcoins, maybe I will begin change my mindset towards these things.

LMAO You were having a weak hand. Converse with yourself about this caused by this is coming from your weak mentality to face the dump. The price reduction of a token posted on Binance is typical since those who took part in the notcoin tap even received their tokens and are selling them on the market. Whales will always be waiting on momentum till the weak hands have decided to sell their coins to the market and whales used that momoney as accumulation phase. i know you were missing to get decent amounts of money.
Among these feeble hands is yours, mate. Considering that the tokens are frequently inflating so high following binance listing try never to sell any of your Binance tokens and just patience. im sure it will be paying off. Thinking that if your token would be thrown away forever is kind of dumb. I have referred to that as a weakhand, my friend considering they never be patience by always try to take ez money but they were always ended up with losing it.

Give it even more patience. Even though you were making little sums of money, you are now missing 130 dollars, which is a significant amount when considering how much was being spent in the third world county. Since whales were buying not coins in huge quantities, things are getting much better.
It was never going to stop pumping the price up to that point. Glad to see that, in spite of your foolish decision to sell it at the bottom, you are still making meager sums of money.
Just try to tell yourself never be a weakhand anymore to the token that is listed on the binance. This will be far better for you.

Honestly, this happens to everyone. I also participated in the Binance Bouncebit megadrop. I got some tokens and sold them immediately. Then, the price went up. I went to check the market cap on CoinGecko, and I realized it was too small for a Bitcoin layer 2 network. I had to buy back at a higher value. So, it started to drop, and I sold at $0.3. Now, the price has doubled. What a shame on me too.
Also, always keep in mind that there is always another chance. Try not to repeat the same mistake when an opportunity arises.

I think launchpads are best ways to get coins at low value these days. There are several exchanges with good launchpads out there and I can say what I'm seeing from people who participated so far are good news like this. I'm currently engaging with BWB launchpad hoping to see at least 1.5 to 2x after that.

Thats alright mate some are able to sold early too not only you plus its a free money I think dont let yourself down. I made decent amount doing this during the 2nd day of their launch. Ive seen some signs that this will be huge so Id make some effort doing the tap tap whenever I had free time and its not hassle anyway.

But since many got out like copy cat of notcoin I am not doing some of them cause we knew that copy cat normally doesnt end up like the first one.

No need to regret that, because in the crypto space airdrops are also appearing a lot, it's just that you really have faith in it?

I don't feel sorry when I sold all the notcoins and then the price increased because I actually made some profit so I can reinvest in cryptocurrencies that I believe in more. But things like this often appear in periods of market growth, making management psychology easily shaken, but in the end, what we get is a little profit or lessons learned.

its quite common with these coins that have massive airdrop the whales aren't buying your dumping at high price they are waiting until people dumps their price to oblivion, you know what, the exact pattern always happen to the coin that got listed in binance, the first one I observed is $ENA with their massive dumping in the first hour of listing the price around $0.4 later on it climbs high to the price of around $2, same scenario with BB, NOT and many more, you just don't dump your coin when quite literally everyone else is also dumping because that means you should be grateful selling your coin undervalued.
I guess this can be a good lesson for you not to get fomo'd easily since that is exactly what the whales are looking for in the market.
but you should also remember that regardless of the price where you sell its still a good free money just doing some fairly easy task you already rewarded handsomely.

what I noticed from this not TGE though the ones that profited handsomely are the people that bought the NOT voucher at the early phase and make really good profit out of it.
despite the fact that there are rumour about irredemable voucher but so far had anyone who bought the voucher sold now they already pocketing grands.

I don't quite understand what you mean. How do you not benefit from launchpads? Don't you have BNB or FDUSD available when there's a launchpool running? Altcoins aren't bad; they get a bad name due to some rotten tokens out there, and it's completely understandable why some people are skeptical about them. I was never into them either; I've only started being involved with them due to the Binance launchpool, which made me acquire whenever there was an available project. 

The truth is that some altcoins, such as those from the Launchpool, are highly volatile, and what occurred to OP is something extremely common with new coins, such as Notcoin. I've had my fair share of experience with this.

Maybe it's not so bad if what you get from playing the game, you can still sell it for $40. This amount is indeed not satisfactory if you compare it with selling it now. That's what crypto is, it's beyond our expectations, especially since it's a new coin. Of course we hesitate to keep it.

I think you're not the only one who made that mistake. Many of my friends knew Notcoin in its early stages but ignored it for the same reasons as you. It was just a game with tap tap the screen so no one thought it would be as booming as it is today. Luckily my friend was able to make around 80-100 dollars because he immediately sold it when it was listed on the market.

Even when the last decline is the lowest, we sometimes doubt whether the coin will rise or whether it will continue to decline again. This feeling comes because we often read comments that say that new coins usually have a weak defense.

My assumption is that if it has potential, it is still potential. because some time ago I saw and noticed that post listing not coin rose sharply, this was a good signal and the price was pumped again after the decline.

You have no use for regret or shame here, you have earned the reward of your efforts. I think you should be blessed that you got something out of such a coin, there are many coins like Notcoin in the market today and even big scams, but you have managed to raise Notcoin at least some amount. The market cannot be predicted in advance whether it will go down or up, when you decide you need to sell now you sell. But if you feel that there is hope to get more from Notcoin then you should invest some amount of your money in Notcoin even though the future does not guarantee what it is going to be.

It is very common in trading altcoins that we usually sell early and make lesser profit than what we could have achieved if we had held our position for a little longer time. In order to make optimum profit from our trade it is crucial to learn technical Indicators which help in a great way to take entry and exit at the right time. Additionally, it is also important to employ risk management tools to avoid big loss in case trade goes against your position.

Well, shit happens and this is really that very common. I have discovered notcoin a little bit late but was able to grind for a couple of months.Although im not really that putting all the time on grinding and tapping but i have been able to get 38k+ plus having those 2x 10M vouchers which you could really be able to revert those vouchers to not points which i do end up on having that 58k. The shit thing that i have done also is on the moment that it did make out that listing then i have sold all my coins and later on on the moment that it did make out some pump then it could really give out that kind of huge regret that you should have held a little bit more longer but since its free money after all then you would really be trying out to convince yourself that it is really just that fine. "Profit is Profit" but you cant really be able to forget on what you could have potentially be able to make if you hadnt just make yourself that too impatient.

Well, there are still tons of airdrops that we could really be able to deal with.This is why it would really be that recommended that once you do see that there's a strong community
kind of project then it would be better that you should grind. The thing i handnt expect for this project that i had been directly listed out on Binance. lol

I don't think that advice applies to his situation at present.
He rather earned the NOTcoin  but did not invest a dime on it. The only problem here is he pick the wrong time to sell despite joining the project late.
Well, my advice to OP is - don't beat yourself up too much about it, take a lesson from this and learn to keep a moon bag for just incase the price eventually changes.
Many people jeet too so you are not the only one. Learn from this and make better decision next time.

Despite your mistakes, you are lucky. I was one of the people who did not hear about it at the beginning and really didn’t have enough time to try to these Telegram games, as they consume a considerable amount of time.

FOMO affected you, which made you sell at 0.004 even though you could have sold at a higher price or waited longer. Perhaps many like you did not expect Notcoin to rise to a higher price again after sell-offs carried out those who received the airdrop and sold their holdings. If you had more confidence in this coin, it was possible to have a part and keep another part. Even if it rose again, you would still make more profits. In any case, do not cry over spilled milk, and $40 is better than nothing. It is worth noting that there are now many new and relatively old Telegram bots that follow the Notcoin approach and may launch future airdrops. You’ll be lucky if you do your research to identify the next promising project if you’re a fan of these click-to-earn bots.

Probably regretting his mistakes and the opportunity to make more profit but then again, profit is a profit so there should be no regrets instead, you have to learn from this so next time you will not have the same mistakes again. There’s a lot of crypto hunter in my local who manage to get big profit in Notcoin, and they deserve it as they work hard to get qualified. This kind of projects will come and go, so make sure to take every chances and be more wise.

      You will probably regret selling the notcoin right away because you were too hasty.. That is often the problem with beginners who don't even research well first.. It's not because its price has fallen in the market that it's gone immediately or will continue at the price of zero.

      So that means there is no one else to blame if it is ourselves because we are the ones who made the decision to sell at a loss.. I hope that has been a lesson for you. You think that the price is about to drop,drop, but you didn't notice or see that the volume is still good and is increasing even more.. Aren't you surprised? Also, if the price is really falling, why is the trading volume so high?

Even your point is valid to hold these coins for some more time but here I am also having one problem with mostly these coins are having highly volatile nature with this if we are having good price then we have to use them quickly instead of holding and having lost into this which is always on cards.

Mostly newbies which are having these tokens and coins from the airdrops are having not good knowledge of these things so they usually came under trap or want quick money so they do things like these mean using them in gambling or having quick sell which give them small amount without any problem.

Well I don't see that as a mistake rather you saw that the coin was going below your expectation and you couldn't hold, like you said bear it so you came up with a decision to sell, that's crypto for you and I wonder why you are kinda blaming yourself or worrying yourself for something you didn't put your money on l. Did you know many people has been craving or is looking for such privilege to participate in project like this let alone to talk about how much you made from it. What if you didn't sell it and the dip price and never rise again or maybe you sold some of it and the price dip, what would have been your stand now so you should be happy that you got something from it instead of saying all these.

That is the risk and patient with longevity involved in the investment of altcoins. When you are investing in altcoins you have to zero your mind but we still thank God that you got $40. Some people totally missed out from the Notcoin launched. Some were tapping from the beginning and missed out from the launched and some didn't follow the instructions so they could not sell their.
Op it is not shame on you but this how cryptocurrency investment is all about. Impatient and fear always makes investors to sell out their token premature. This should be a good expression for those who are still afraid to lose our.

I won’t call this a mistake because even if I was the one, I would have done the same that you have done to  them when you first heard of the information. Every airdrop is usually seen as a child’s play until when proven otherwise and have a strong backing to show that they don’t engage in such acts. Your instinct about it is normal as any other person in this your position will do.


This is an altcoin and as it has been involved into paying users through airdrops, it will really affect the price of the coin at first because of the large number willing standing by to sell all of their tokens without having to regard themselves or not about it for the future price. Notcoin is now being held by investors that are not looking for short term possibilities of notcoin but what they stand to get in several years to come after their investment now.

The lesson to learn here is that cryptocurrencies are volatile. Before you finally decide to sell of your tokens on any project, be sure that you don’t have any faith in them coming back up and not just because the price went down. Because those who do research and learn in-depthly about the project are the ones that usually have the confidence despite market conditions. So next time you may want to be sure before you make the quick move. From experience, I took out my money and this happened. I learnt the lesson add the next time, I was relaxed and I got back my money, at least the amount I should have gotten at first.

Those people most likely just got lucky as they took a big risk and that risk paid off but note that not everything is worth the risk. You are the one to decide whether a project should be looked at or not and you should only depend on your own instincts and research because there is no sure way to check if a project will be good or not early on.
It seems to be doing very well now as we keep seeing an increase of players. If they explore more options to add into their project then I can see a potential growth.

If a mistake occurs, it will make people regret the coins they have released, NOT coins are just coins that are promoted via tap tap airdrop in large amounts. It's better for the remaining money to choose a coin that can make you money in real time rather than thinking too much, hoping for a 100x profit but making a mistake that you don't realize. Continue to increase your insight into what you want to do.

Altcoins are a little more risky to invest in so proceed with caution as they will not be too volatile. It doesn't take time for the price of the token to go up or down. Research the market well and rather than making a wrong decision in haste it is better to wait for some time and try to understand the movements of the market well. There are better altcoins than this and if you rush to do something you will face losses.

People are just being impatient to see the pump for their tokens. It's proven if OP was feeling panic once the price of notcoin declined so hard. Not coin was almost reaching 3 cents. OP probably missed a lot of profit. You're right, if not, coin is just a tap tap airdrop, but it's being promoted by pavel durov directly as a telegram owner.
It was not the same as ususal tokens that used as a pump and dump tokens by the whale. The TONblockchain is getting even more popular at this moment. There is also tap tap trend at this moment. Im feeling OP was not able to become a diamond hand.

The better for him try to sell some then hold the rest.

Not only altcoins but all crypto currency investments have more or less risks. If you are going to find a new altcoin to invest in, I think it's getting too risky for you, because most of the new projects these days are scams. I think when a new coin hits the market you shouldn't rush into all those coins. The coin tries to rise through a hype and if you invest in the last period you can lose your money because then the project is preparing for fraud. I think top coins are a good way to research the market well because they have been in the market for a long time, investing there is also less risky.

Of course, such conditions occur in many other coins. This depends on our courage in taking risks. Sometimes I think when holding a coin and the price drops, I will say that until the price is zero I will not sell. I took the risk of not receiving a penny if the coin was intended for the long term.

In my opinion, I don't see much to regret, after all, the airdrop was a good experience for you, and the money you lost is not a lot of money, after all. It would be better if you think about many new airdrop opportunities in the future. Many new airdrops are released every day. If you dwell on what you have lost, it will be difficult for you to see what is new, do not do this to yourself.

I agree with you. Several people have also experienced the same thing. They lost several dollars because they chose to hold the token. But since OP said he got it from Airdrop I think it doesn't matter because at least he can still sell for a decent value. What is unfortunate is that some people have bought Notcoin at a high price and then sold it at a low price. Currently Notcoin is at a price that is good enough to make a profit if you get it from Airdrop or buy it at the start of the launch.

Regret always usually comes later on so I wouldn't really mind it that much. You can't do anything at that point anymore anyway. You can just keep farming the coins since it seems like there isn't much difficulty anyway, so just keep farming it imo. At the end of the day it's basically money you got without spending anything (except for time), so just go for it. Pretty sure others have experienced it as well, especially in a volatile market so nothing unusual there. Even I did myself lol.

Besides, there's still a difference between profiting and not profiting at all. I'd say any profit after that profit margin is more than enough to be a win.

Regrets will not solve the matter at hand, rather we should be push to make more efforts when it comes to the space. We should know what we're ready to sacrifice and on second thought, most of us doesn't indulge in airdrop projects, as for me, I've missed out on big opportunities when it comes to airdrops. Why? Because I feel they will take longer time and time waits for no man.

Very amateur mistake. You seem to just go in and make decisions blindly on the spot hence why you panicked yourself into selling lol.

Next time, before even sending funds to the exchange, make sure you already have a plan in mind — set a sell offer at price x because you think the price will increase because of y, with a stop loss at price z.

Brother, there is nothing to be sad about them, you will get what is in your destiny. Moreover, how can you know that the price of notcoin will increase so much after four or five days? So brother there is nothing to be sad about what has happened because you have already sold. So rather than regretting them now, think about how to earn more in the future.

Your holdings weren’t very large so you didn’t lose out on that much profit. It would have been a different story if the price had pumped to $1 and you lost out on an opportunity worth thousands of dollars. $40 from tapping a screen still seems like a decent amount of money considering the effort that was put in. I would have also sold early on if I had participated in the airdrop because I don’t see any use for the token other than being a reward currency for a mobile game that has already peaked in popularity. You can try your luck with the new Hamster Kombat game, but I would not expect to get rich from a Telegram game, so you should keep expectations reasonable.

First of all, you didn't spend any money on it. Only time, so whatever money you got is considered "free". You didn't messed up big time. It's just that, you did some mistakes and sometimes, making mistakes will make you a better one in terms of decision-making. :)
7,500 NOT has a total value of around 120$ as of this moment. Well, you got it for free and there's many new projects that's almost the same as Notcoin. Maybe try to do a bit of a research and join to all of them. :) Who knows? One of them might end up like Notcoin or even better.
There's always a 2nd chance for everything. You made a wrong decision by selling it at the wrong time, but all investors have experienced the same as you've done. I've sold some tokens in the past where that token pumped up a few days after I sold it. Don't be too sad about it. What's important is you got some money from it. Just invest that money into another token and let it grow. Making mistakes is pretty much normal for an investor to make. Learn from them so that you will not do the same mistake ever again OP. :)

from my point of view, it is better to try first with the abilities we have, even though it is difficult for others, it does not necessarily make it difficult for us, the important thing is to do it, rather than regretting not doing anything, missing out on a very meaningful airdrop opportunity, even though it takes time to do it, it all depends to our courage to take the risks we face.

Bro, there is no shame on you, stop that! Let me tell you this, no one is perfect in the world of speculation and gambling, and many who you thought were the heroes of earning in trading and investment could at times do that due to guesswork, gambling and daring. However, this is all about risks, so no need to curse ourselves just for missing an opportunity, another may come next time. But still, be careful as it may not play the same way and that is when you will know the beauty of being careful which you thought was a shame.

What if you left Notcoin and now the $40 is $4, how will you feel? Do you think this is not happening? Oh, boy, it happens daily. It is the missed opportunity we often talk about, we don't appreciate the missed causality.

First mistake can be said as ignorance as you didn't believe the concept and didn't started playing when you had enough time to play and earn. Second mistake can be labelled as bad timing or fear of losing even small amount as you still weren't believing the project & thought it could go to 0. Actually no one can know what gonna happen (Notcoin having success in your case). If we can predict or see the future, we'd all have become millionaire.

You made two mistakes but I made one mistake. You even played the game for 2 weeks but I didn't play a day. I came to know about the game about 1 month ago. Everyone said it would be great but I didn't care. Then when Notcoin was listed in the market, there was nothing to do but regret.
Cryptocurrency is like that. They must be accepted. Nothing to regret. Find the next gem in a new frenzy.
