RE: Get Paid To Confess #1! Crypto Confessions From 2017 5SBD Prize

Oh crypto regrets...where to begin?

-Not getting in on the bitcoin IRA back when I thought it couldn't get any higher than $2K. Had I taken the risk...I'd be retired today.

-Not moving NXT coins to a wallet back in 2014 - because the exchange I had them on poof and disappeared. Now would be a few $1000.

-Trying to recover an Omni wallet that had some part of an Omni in it I got many years ago. Sent Maidsafe there I got when it was...very cheap. Imported keys wrong. Can't access account. I refuse to do the math to see how much I'd have.

-Got 2 BTC 'back' when they were $2K on GDAX. It was the peak of BTC. I KNEW it would go down, how could it possibly go up?! It went to like $1800 for a day or something - I panicked and sold and locked in my loss because I couldn't afford to 'lose' $4K. Well, this was obviously before bitcoin cash launched, so Coinbase would have given me equal amounts of bitcoin cash for each BTC - so that $4K/2BTC would be at a very minimum...$28K.

-Biggest though was selling half my ripple over the summer to change into Steem & pay for some of a summer vaycay... I was POSITIVE it couldn't go higher than $.25. That said, I still do have half of them - and got most back in 2013 (2014?) back when Ripple was giving away 500 for free with every $20 worth. Still...I cry looking at the charts...how could I have held on so long...just to sell. sigh. I coulda bought a house today.

I'm hoping not selling my lone BTC at $20K - that I picked up for $400 a few years ago- won't be next years regret. It's going back up right? HODL still? To the moon LOL.

Live and learn - we all live and learn...if I could go back in time I would have put way more money into crypto...but then how would I have known what today's charts would look like :-P

Sell any shitcoin you want, never sell your BTC. Say 1 Satoshi and all is forgiven.
