Mine is not a physical loss, but not buying ethereum while it was $15 is my worst decision ever! I could have made my total capital x25, oh god.  Cry

Surprisingly with all the trading I do, I've only lost about 10$ worth of BTC from the loss of a wallet and it's backup. I'd consider myself pretty lucky; knock on wood  Grin.

My biggest lost in cryptocurrencies was when my laptop corrupted due to virus from flash drive, my wallet was gone and I can't recovered it. If I remember maybe it's around $15-$20 and in my part it was high amount, lesson learned I always provide back-up for all my wallet.

I bought 1.4 million NEM in 2015 for $250.00 AUD. My laptop shit itself and took the coins with it about a month after buying them.

Never bought them back LOL! Have made big gains elsewhere but they don't measure up to this loss...

The show goes on though Cool

My largest loss was about $300 from bad trades. And my everyday regret and I consider as my biggest loss is the day when I heard bitcoin a couple of years ago when it was a few cents. But I didnt buy. Sad

I don't know if anybody remembers of Boost coin? There was nothing special about this coin but was immediately after XC pump, and also started to rise like crazy. I have bought at the top and my BTC's at the end were almoust decimated that day.  Immediately after CloakCoin came and saved me from from my economic demise, a was on edge, to sell what is left of my BTCs.
I will not mention it losses on Mintpal, and few others scamy exchanges.

According to the prices today, if a kept my bitcoins i'd be up thirty to sixty K

Losing bitcoin due to software or hardware difficulties and being scammed? at least five k

how about you?

Damn. That's probably what most people did - sold early Grin

For me it's buying at $1000 in 2013 and not selling at the all time high and taking the logical profit. But instead got greedy and held even though the price was crashing. Eventually I got impatient of waiting for an additional pump and sold it at half the price i bought it at. Resulted in a 4k loss.

If i held that for 4 years and sold now, i would have still made 2.7x on my investment. It's crazy how bitcoin can rise and rise.

I know that feeling, I've not bought ethereum while it was $9 and on top of that my worst decision ever was not buying BTC when it was $1 (the day when I found what a bitcoin is)

I think my biggest loss is when I trade my HMQ to BTC when the price was only at .000032 btc per HMQ,
That was my first trade and after a couple of hours the price of HMQ pump up to .00007 btc .

I think my biggest lose is with fjc, I sold all my fjc 0.00000002 for bitcoin, month later fjc went as high as 0.000001

Wow, but sometimes when you have bills to take care of, we feel impatient.

I have bought and earned many different(shit)coins and mostly in yobit because I thought those coins will be very successful.

but ended holding and sometimes selling for almost nothing, I think that the total amount in bitcoin would be around one which at that time didn't cost a lot like 300$ but now thats almost 10x.

I think the biggest loses I have made is when I hard of bitcoin in 2012 when it price is below $100 I refused to invest and put about $1300 in binary option trading and lose the whole investment. I always see my not investing into bitcoin earlier than now as a lost to me.
