If she trusted you the money to invest then she is partly responsible for trusting you. That doesn't help with your feeling of guilt ofc, but yes you should just tell her.

It is volatile stuff but yep tell her but then ask her duration as well since you probally just need to ride it out
Good time to dollar cost average though

Cryptos are among the most volatile assets ever. I hope you told her before investing.

Feeling sorry for you man, tough times. Now what you should do is sell the NMC and do your homework and buy a coin with a promising short term future. Just get in a pump early and dump ASAP when you recover your money. Hope that helps

and yeah pm me with what you are going to invest in before applying my above idea, ill help you out

If you trade or invest others ppl money, why didnt you sell the coins when you see price dropping ? Wait for the bottom and buy back in to get the max out of it ?

You did trust all these "hold" maniacs ? A real investor would never hold something that is losing value. He will hold if its rising.

But if btc goes up so will namecoin? The reason namecoin fell is because stupid btc died.

Honesty is the best policy.  She'll find out sooner or later.  As they say, you can't trade your way out of a hole and you can't gamble your way out of debt.

Right, why didn't you? Can't you just look at Bitcoinwisdom's signs saying "TOP" and "BOTTOM"?
