As the topic says, What are the biggest mistakes you've done with Bitcoin?

I'm trying to gather just a list on things that have gone wrong. This can be terrible backup stories, client hacks, reversing at MtGox and such.
I don't want to gather a list of hacks of commercial sites in particular because there are plenty of information on that already.

I will post everything I find on this very simple website:

The biggest mistake taht I made in bitcoin is when I sold my bitcoins around $4000. I didn't actually though that its pruce would go upto $19000 dollars. I also regret selling my other coins and just a day after that its price juat tripled. It is just so frustrating.

The 2 biggest mistakes I made on bitcoins are not investing before and investing too early. The time I knew bitcoins was around 2012 when bitcoins before were really cheap. I did not even bother buying bitcoins before because I did not know how. Even if I did, I had no money with me. Recently, I made a too early investment. The thing is, whenever I invest on something, something bad usually happens. It did this time. When I invested a large amount of money on bitcoins, the price declined.

Gamble about 150 BTC away around 5-10 dollar range.

Next biggest was to sell most of my coins on the way back up @ $26.

Gambling is very risky because you do not really know how their website works and you can become broke within just one day if you did not play well. I highly suggested that you should focus on trading rather than playing on betting sites because you have a higher probability to earn profit on the market.

I have heard about this bitcoin technology back in 2010, but the biggest mistake i have done is  I did not get serious on to this bitcoin network back then, and that is a biggest loss in my when I got in the community the bitcoins have reached so high that it is not easy get even 1 bitcoin.

The biggest mistake I do not know about bitcoin, after I read and learn bitcoin is very good to be made a promising income.
