Enough is enough! Good bye Bitcoin!

[Alucard1]

There are many people who also experience the way you experienced and it is way harder than yours because of having a greater amount of lost money. Maybe that should serve as a lesson for you, every beginner or those people who do not have enough knowledge about cryptocurrency will usually experience losing especially if they invest because of being a lack of knowledge. For all the beginners who wants to invest in crypto, you better gain knolwdge first about cryptocureency before trying it. It would be hard for you to earn from investment ifnyou dont have knowledge about it at all.

Op, if you are weak. Crypto world is not for you. Akso, giving up is not the answer and will not help you out overcome your losses.  If you are lack of patience, you will really lose in the battle of volatility.
 
 To tell you frankly, you're not the only one who have been a newbie before. We've been there, we also have losses, we have also mistakes. What you shall do is to give space first, reminisce all the mistakes you have encountered and continue holding. Remember that it is not always the sad part (bears) and we are just waiting for the boom time.

This is the result of investing without good knowledge of cryptocurrency. If you are a beginner and you invested in crypto then there would be a huge probability that you may lose your money but do not give up on cryptocurrency because there are many opportunities that you can have in the world of crypto. You will waste it once you quit. Just don't rush things and prioritize knowledge over money.

But for me, it's over.

Bitcoin OGs, were there many people like aceboy44, who said that "it's over" for them before the famous surge to $1,000 of 2013?

Where are they now? They FOMO-bought $3,000 - $10,000?

why store your BTC on an exchange when your main purpose is to only hodl them ? but you must not worry if they shut down the exchange for good as long as they give warning and return the funds to thier users that wont be a problem because you can still use other exchange . you can exchange your btc anytime if you need money because like i said earlier there are others out there that doesnt have country restriction  . you can use them anywhere you are in the world and its almost impossible that other exchanges will shutdown because there are lots of them .

Any ideas on what I should do with my Ledger Nano X now?  

IMO, you can install FIDO U2F app on your Ledger nano x and use device to secure accounts on plenty of services like Google email, Dropbox Facebook etc.. Find instruction how to do it. And no need to regret of being in crypto. You have acquired new knowledge that may be coming in handy in your life.

Even if your country is not supporting cryptocurrency like Bitcoin you can still hold it in your wallet and like you said you cannot exchange it with cash if you need it, man there are many ways to convert btc into other payment channel like btc to paypal for example, dont tell me even paypal is not allowed in your country? if yes then it looks like your government is not interested in innovations.

[Genemind]

You have entered the market too late and I guess you had become too impatient. Bitcoin millionaires had waited several years and invested at a good price. If you only had learned or heard about bitcoin due to it's potential earning through investment, you ahould've researched further of it's risks.

Most countries are banning cryptocurrency since it is associated with illegal activities like money laundering. You can still keep your cryptocurrency and use VPN to access some platform and exchange your crypto there.

[Inkdatar]

Just remember this thing, you are not the only one who have encountered in this kind of problem. Since you are in a country that does not want to adopt the new technology yet you have other option on what to do in your bitcoin and your nano ledger wallet. Also, before having bitcoin you should understand the risks you may encounter before jumping into investing. It is best to have proper knowledge in this technology since some also regrets of not having bitoin early.

I'm fed up with all this cryptocurrency thing.

First off, I make tremendous loses due to being a newbie in this market. After a second thought (and accepting the heavy loses incurred) I decided to try again and re-invest in bitcoin, only to be told this few moments ago.

I will not risking HODLING bitcoins if they will shut down the first (and only) cryptocurrency exchange in Kuwait. As such I decided to play it safe, incur further loses, and just sold all my bitcoins and getting out of this business for good.

After all, why should I HODL my bitcoins (1.25 this time) when I can't exchange them for cash when I need them? More importantly, how will bitcoin appreciate when exchanges will close in other parts of the world?

I wish I was never introduced to Bitcoin.  

Any ideas on what I should do with my Ledger Nano X now?  

Bitcoin is ponzi just big ponzi scheme!  
As usual If no More new investors the ponzi collapse the best Thing to trust is legal things btc is gamble it Can just disapere one day

Cryptocurrency is just Good for Take profit as much as possible and leave!

The knowledge of Bitcoin, and selling it while it's priced $10,500, then learning about its price 5 years after is 6 digits long will NOT be handy in his life.

Prepare your heart medicine, OP.

[AakZaki]

When you give up it is your biggest loss. If you always experience big losses, you are less patient waiting for prices to rise and always panic when prices start to fall. You have to know the basics of trading so that you can understand the market. and the most important thing is not to use money for your basic needs, make sure the money you invest is bonus money and will not be used for anything in the long term. Because if you start needing the investment money it will be a bet.
The fatal mistake is to sell when the price drops and you will make a loss. Hold on for longer and be patient waiting for the price to rise would be better.

I think you just won't have access to exchanges or trading sites, but you can still hold it. There's a piece of knowledge that I think you forgot and that is that Bitcoin is a decentralized asset.
I just hope that the OP didn't fully throw all his cash to Bitcoin though.

Not quite long ago I felt similar. (I still kinda do) It is really emotionally damaging to be a bitcoin holder especially if it is your own earned money on the line.

I can't blame you for that.

Few months ago I threw my FU and went all out too. Now the only coins I got are from the sig camps I collected from. (and some reference profits) Life is a lot easier and less stressful that way.

I also discovered that it is the hard work that should make you rich. Not gambling. In other words, No pain, No gain.

Wish you good luck.

[TedMosby]

I just read your previous thread,
that's a crazy exchange fee. 5% for buying, 3% for selling fee. May I know which exchange?

I suggest to you get in touch with your local crypto community.
I saw some crypto group called bitcoin kuwait, and something like that on social media.
maybe you can get a new insight from local bitcoin users there.
we can't give you suggestions specifically since we don't know how bitcoin in Kuwait.
I agree with some members here, you can try P2P exchange feature from a well-known exchange like Binance.

[Rafiqul]

Although investing in crypto is risky, I don't think Bitcoin will say goodbye at this point. Although investing in Bitcoin is risky, it is very profitable; But for this you have to do research. I also hope that one day Kuwait will be open and accept cryptocurrency and crypto exchange will also be open.

[Simakura]

Nobody can predict clearly where bitcoin will go

What has your trading to do with Bitcoin? Its your fault playing roulette with your money, not Bitcoin's.

Most people here have only 1 advise: Buy and hold. You were trading, 90% of traders lose miserably, doesn't matter if its Bitcoin, USD, or Stocks. Trading is not for everyone and its your sole fault when you lose.

If your country goes hostile against Bitcoin, just go to another country and exchange it there. You can probably still do it in your country if you have the right contacts. Why are you not protesting your leaders for doing this? Bitcoin is not at fault, its your gov.

Sell your gadget to someone who can appreciate it. It is not needed for anything but mundane purchases at shops, since its a bit more secure than using your smartphone.

And to reiterate, there are like just 15 or 16 countries (counting yours) hostile to bitcoin. The rest of the world doesn't care. Bitcoin is bitcoin everywhere, unlike fiat which is often not accepted for political reasons in different countries.

[chaser15]

For sure, you aren't the only one who has bitcoin in your region. Try to explore some ways to convert your BTC into fiat.

First, you need to search for a local crypto group in your area. There might be on social media platforms like Facebook, Telegram, Discord, or any crypto-related forum. Try to seek advice or suggestion wherein you can able to convert your BTC into cash or vice-versa.

As for your sentiments about experiencing a big loss, it's normal. If you are really decided to end your crypto journey, you are free to do it. Others should respect your decision.

[ChrisPop]

I'll tell you one reason for HODLing your bitcoins and not selling them. You should look at them from a long-term investment perspective. Even if you can hardly exchange them for KWD, that doesn't mean in the future, if the Bitcoin adoption continues, there won't be a much better payment infrastructure.

This is just my 2 cents.. but not hodling at least a little amount of BTC is a dumb move..
