.....
It is the single worse loss I have ever had with any coin of any kind.
And when it happened it was only 2x6=12 dollars.
I sent a lot of requests about this to a lot of people and finally gave up.
Could be worse it could be 2 BTC.
I think I lost half a bitcoin back in 2015. My worst loss. Live and learn.
That sucked. It was like $100 at the time. I just shrugged and chalked it up to cost of playing with fire.
If I knew in 2015 that btc would be at 25K 8 years later (with 69K peak), I would max up the credit cards (or used my 401a funds), obviously.
But...you never know. I am saying that in both cases losses could have been easily remedied at the very moment they occurred, right?
We always have regrets for something that could have been bought small and then blew up gigantically.
I bought quite a few AAPL shares in 1997, but sold them in 2000 when we entered the bear.
Made about 10X, 'lost' another 180X of appreciation, was actually thinking of re-entering at what is now $0.32 (split adjusted) in 2002, but somehow did not.
Does this eat me: absolutely not because you cannot reverse time. I am telling this just as an anecdote.
Your decisions are part of your life. You never know what you would have done with those 2 eth and/or 0.5 btc, right?.
I am almost 100% sure that I wouldn't have held AAPL for another 23 years as I am not Warren Buffet, but, subconsciously, maybe I have learned something like this:
never sell your winning investments because
they could keep on winning for decades.
Unless Jim Cramer is bullish on them.
