Crypto and this board ruined my mind

FOMO'd into bitcoin near the peak of the bulll run, held like an idiot and then panic sold around 5k, chased a bunch of alts to try and make up for it, got burned even more. sitting on worthless bags

Jesus fucking Christ you faggots, maybe reading/thinking shit like this is why all you fucks are in this position, text your friend(s) and talk about something real in life, not how much money you can get so you can buy materialistic bullshit and then feel hollow when you have nothing to enjoy it with (aka the oldfag neets here who /made it/). You guys are unironically nihilistic and self-pitying as shit, the more time you spend on here and not engaging in the world, the more it’ll poison you. Because the world and time keeps on going with or without you being consciously present. Niggers

how did you lose your job from bagholding?

Same here bro, switched from chem to finance because of this board. Now I spend all my free time browsing this board when I'm not doing financial services at my work.

Feels like I'm gonna make it at the cost of my sanity

crypto is a meme

Also this. This board is grafted onto my brain. I spent an unhealthy amount of time on this board on my Saturday with no financial gain from doing so.

Hell I'm at the bar right now and in this personal hell.

This. Research shit and buy when you can or save for a dip, but don't forget to live. Enjoy the outdoors, spend time with your friends/family, pursue your passions. I check the Blockfolio like normies check their Zuckbook, buy every week with my wagecage paycheck, and shit post on here 4-5 hours a week. I used to watch the charts religiously, day trade in and out of shit, but it's too stressful. Not worth it. And easy to make a mistake and then gamble bigger to make up for it. Don't put in what you can't afford to lose. Research solid shit and just hold, maybe set some sells at your exit points so you don't even have to sweat that. Waiting around for "making it" will make life pass you by

Thats a really good comparison. You might buddy up with the people here but you can't ever trust them.

It's not about materialism, it's about projecting status, which is an incredibly valuable skill to have. I did not mean it in a shallow way. Your ranting about materialism and stuff makes you sound either young or broke. Go to Goodwill and buy a bunch of clothes, then go out to the bars in New Jersey. Then, try the same thing next weekend in designer clothes. I guarantee you you will see a night and day difference in how people recognize you and respect your personhood.

inb4 "buhhh i only hang out with people who don't see status" I suppose you do not see race, do not see physical attributes, cannot recognize mental aptitude etc.

TL;DR Nobody's talking to me like a frycook when I have lambo money, but also i'm not buying a lambo just to flex, so that leaves me with becoming a refined individual whose wealth is implicit.

>making it at the cost of sanity

This. It's why I hate when people try and pull me out of my own head. I feel like once I get comfortable in the despair I am on the brink of making it.

I cut myself at work the other day.

I thought:
>bleed for me wagie

I hate this place.

jesus christ

you have a gambling addiction. crypto is a meme. wake the fuck up. the sooner you accept that the value of these internet tokens is driven entirely by speculation and scams, the sooner you can pursue a feasible path to financial recovery. stop chasing deluded lambo dreams, abandon this basket weaving forum, and go be a real person with real friends.

Kekked out loud

I can't leave. I've been here on Jow Forums poisoning my mind for 12 years now, since I was 13 years old.

>This board is grafted onto my brain.
This but unironically. Sometimes at night when I'm half asleep I start browsing Jow Forums in my mind. It seems so real too, fucking weird.

Becoming socially isolated and trapped does not suddenly reverse itself because you have money. Nice clothes and a nice car don’t matter if you don’t even know how to talk to people like a normal fuckin person and you can’t even have a conversation with someone without being up crypto because you now know nothing else.
Almost the exact situation except I got the fuck off here when I was in late high school. I hated myself and the way I was before. I read threads like these and I’m reminded of times when my head was in a very dark place. I’ve been out of that mindset for years but it’s super fucking unsettling reading this shit. I’ve got great friends, a loving girlfriend and a solid support system now, and check crypto infrequently, but I can imagine a stark difference. I was actually kinda obsessed with bitcoin back in the day before this was a containment board. If I could keep the tens of bitcoins I used to have and trade my current situation for having gained nothing in the past 10 or 11 years, I’d never do it.

Also this is the normie way but at least I’m not halfway suicidal posting braps and contributing to threads like “what does it feel like”, fucking christ Im getting flashbacks to being 12 or 13 again

frens how do we stop using Jow Forums?
i blocked it but i just started using another browser
my positions are set in stone so its pointless.
i think i might have to literally move my home to change this habit

I'm guessing you're a linklet then...

What does it feel like though?

You don't, sorry. You're here forever.

you had no life

Nothing is beyond repair, user.

Lol, what is “no life” to you?

maybe he's a swinglinker

You literally cannot

Same. I used to have ambition before crypto, but after I got a taste of how easy it was to make money during the 2017 bull run (even though I ended up losing it all in the end) I lost all of my passion for having any kind of meaningful career. I don't ever even want to go back to work again. Crypto is the real black pill. I have literally ZERO fucking motivation to do anything useful with my life anymore, and the only thing keeping me from killing myself is the thought that maybe I'll get to fuck top tier escorts when I finally make it.

I think we have a new pasta.

Same boat as you bud. Got a taste of the gains riding raiblocks from $2k to $60 and all the way back down. Thankfully I bought some other random shitcoins with my gains now I’m up to $10k and am banking on either qnt or xsn to x100–1000 with $2500 in each and hoping for at least a x10 with the other 5k in btc
