My worst investment was to listen to twitter people while buying and selling alts. And also trading view analysts who only knew how to draw a fibonacci and make up buy sell targerts
Why did I make those mistakes? Cuz I was a newbie and an idiot.
Always try to learn some technical stuff before you do investment.
I also used to listen to all kinds of gurus with their advice and lost money. Several unsuccessful deals and I was cured of this.

My worst mistake and nightmare was buying Ripple (XRP) in May 2017 at around 14000 sat. After that time it kept constantly going down till 1800 sat. When the market started going up I sold that damn Ripple at something like 4000 sat and fixed the losses. In a couple of weeks from that time Ripple reached 24000 sats. That mistake was unbearable.

Till now. I was wrong many times. But the biggest mistake was in February 2018. I bought TRON and XVG for $ 0.17. And as you know I have lost 70% of my account. I'm not a trader. I am the holder I hope in the future will be good. and so on. I have slowly lost

My worst investment in cryptocurrency is an investment in the ICO Qchain. The team lured investors with false promises. ICO ended six months ago, and since then there has been no development of the project.

For me it was investing in pump and dump coins when it was at the pinnacle of its hype.

In my earlier crypto days, a lot of coins got pumped on a daily basis, and I wanted to make a profit which meant that I invested in many of them. Some paid off, but at the end, I ended up with big losses because the inevitable dump happened sooner or later.

Also, not diversifying my portfolio was a mistake that I made. I was putting all my money in one coin, and it was incredibly risky to do that.

But the biggest mistake that others made seems to be lending coins, I didn't invest but many others did, and were all left holding worthless tokens. Never ever invest in guaranteed investment schemes.

I have an error when my investment sells too fast at a low price. I should be patient to sell my investment coins at higher prices but I can not and sell in a low position when the market plummets and I lose.

My biggest mistake in that cryptocurrency was when the market fell deep and the altcoin price was low, I was overwhelmed and sold almost all the altcoin I held, and I lost a lot of money. I think I should not do this, this is just a fluctuation of the market, in the future the market will recover and grow strong. So right now, I'm starting to buy again the potential altcoin and hopefully they will bring more profit to me in the future.

I regret that at first I knew the crypto investment from cloud mining and even HYIP, a lot of money I had spent and half disappointing, but I'm not too upset because this is my best experience to choose which one is better to invest in the future, all changed for the better when I got to know this forum and I started leaving the HYIP crypto forum as soon as possible.

Worst investment for me was buying breakout coin BRK, invested about 12 btc at that time. I just didn't do enough research on that project but it was a lost to count.

I make a lot of mistakes 2 years ago when I started crypto trading, bought a good number of altcoins (NXT, XMR, XRP) and sell them at 50% lost due to panic and later they increased 2x-3x. It is a hard learned experience never sell the coin in lose doesn't matter how much time you have to wait.

My worst crypto investment would be when I invested on TRX and XVG back on Jan when people was getting crazy about them. Though it was my fault as I was just getting started on crypto trading and I was afraid of FOMO so I get in on their rocket ships and after that I was left in I even hold my TRX now and for XVG already sold all of them back in March I think when it pump a little bit to cut my loses.

I made almost same mistake twice that is thinking that if a coin raises for a period time then it will raise all over the year. I thought taking profit in the middle is a bad idea but it was the complete opposite of what I thought! Lol

When I first started last year I invested in Storj at the top, had to eat a 50% loss as I thought they were doomed. This was right before a random spike of 100%, boy did that hurt me right in the feels Undecided.

my mistake was at the beginning of last year was too excited and expecting much on coin ignis. but this time the result is beyond my estimate. I do not consider this a bad thing because it will just hold me this coin for the next few years.

Mys worst mistake was not holding, it was December last year and most of the alts are going crazy due to BTC bullrun. I have sold a coin and that will be multiplied by 10x on wha I got on that day in just 7 days and I nearly cried. I could've get rich, and then later on I keep on hodling random alts, hoping to have that chance again.

My mistake was not to invest in a bad project, but in trading on EtherDelta. I was very much in a hurry to make a sale and mixed up the number of zeros after the comma, eventually I sold the token ten times lower than I wanted.

I am almost havr no mistake in crypto investment. Because every time i put my money i am doin deep research about the man behind the project. And always hold for very long time. My mistake is only once when i put all my dash in cryptsy and when cryptsy get hacked im fucked up. Never put all your money on centralised exchanger. Always pu it in your own wallet which you have full controled.
