Welp, I finally fucking sold. I just can't take this shit anymore. My life has turned into a living hell...
>bought BTC around $16k because all my work friends were telling me it would hit $100k by end of year >HOLD through everything, fall for the biz meme 'iron hands' >start obsessing over portfolio, checking it constantly every 5 minutes all day >reprimanded at work for "playing with my phone too much" >reprimanded again for the same thing >start calling in sick so I don't get reprimanded >get fired instead >girlfriend of 6 years leaves me, says I have become "uncommunicative" (who the fuck even says that?) and that I'm not the same guy she fell in love with... ouch >quit answering calls from friends, quit going out with them, now they don't even call at all or invite me anywhere >haven't left my condo in about 20 days straight, and last time I did it was just to stock up on groceries (mostly microwave dinners and toaster strudels) >just sold all my BTC for ~$7200 >freedom >relief
now I guess i try to rebuild my life... what a wild ride this has been, devestating, but I suppose all a guy can do is learn from his mistakes and try not to repeat them. Good luck guys. If you've had any similar experiences or had parts of your life destroyed over this crypto scam, stay strong and try to get through it, I'd suggest cutting your losses and trying to get back to normalcy but I know it's easier said than done.
lets pretend this was real. how the fuck did you get fired for calling in sick? what kind of a cunt were you dating?

> work friends told me to buy @ $16k > sold because kek
Yes! Now that weak handed normies are being shaken out of the market the golden bull run can begin! I’ve been waiting for this since I bought bitcoin in 2011! My $500 investment will allow me to NEET forever. What a genius I am. Stay poor wageKek!
Austin Mitchell
it is real but i have no way of proving that, call it a LARP if you want I really don't care.
I didn't get fired for calling in sick one time, I was reprimanded like 5-6 times for "playing with my phone all day", my bitch of a boss already hated me so she was happy to have an excuse to criticize me. I was literally obsessed/addicted to checking my portfolio non-stop, the most I could go was maybe 30 minutes without looking. So I called in sick knowing that I would just get reprimanded if I went to work and kept checking my phone, I know this was an unsustainable solution but I guess I'm retarded. Ended up calling in sick like 10 times over the course of a few months.
Girlfriend was very patient but I became obsessed with crypto, whenever I was home I'd be on my PC or phone, I quit taking her out or spending time with her, if we watched a movie together I'd just be watching my phone instead. I'm sad the relationship ended after 6 great years but I can see where she was coming from and I'm at least partly (mostly) to blame.
Jacob Edwards
sounds like your girlfriend was looking for an excuse to get "out"
your boss sounds like a cunt and wanted you gone. maybe you just sucked as an employee and this was the the ticket to fire you. either way wake up the fuck up and get your life together. sounds like it was barely together anyways. quit blaming crpyot

Andrew Allen
I mean I was making ~$70k/year and had been there for a few years, and had been with my girlfriend for 6 years, paying a mortgage on a newly constructed condo, things were going decently well for me. Then i buy into this Bitcoin shit for $16k "it can only go up!" they said, "$100k by end of year!", "John Macafee said he'll eat his own dick! the mans a genius!" I heard it all, so I bought in and bought in BIG. Can you really blame me?
Now here I am. No job, no girl, my moms very sick, not sure if I can afford my mortgage payments much longer, and severely depressed with no prospects or plan. This must be what rock bottom feels like.
Anyway I'm off, good night and good luck user.
Luis Taylor
> I was reprimanded like 5-6 times for "playing with my phone all day"
Why didn’t you get an Apple Watch and add your portfolio to your watch face? Stop blaming crypto for the fact you’re a weak minded noob normie. Blame yourself. Be happy that your gf is free from dating a loser like you. Be happy that you bought someone’s BTC bags that is way smarter than you, and once again sold them to someone smarter than you. We know how to use the money better than you, in order to make more money. Go back to wageKek and be a slave the rest of your life. Stop looking at your phone during slave-labor aka work and do as your told.
Luis Cook
Woah, spoken like a true Jow Forumsement loser. You truly got their semantics down on that one. Don't forget to mention jews or women next time.
Nicholas Jones
what the fuck are you even doing
dont you do research before you invest or speculate on things if this was clearly your first time ever doing this?
if you did things correctly (well first of all you wouldnt invest in a bubble) you wouldn't even care what prizes are and would look at your portfolio maybe 1time a month
Daniel Hernandez
>This is the last time you'll hear from me.
Luis Long
Fuck her. Bitch saw a bit of adversity and went sucking other dicks. Never fall for the relationship meme, they are all whores
Andrew Morris
newly constructed condo at 70k a year? this is the worst larp i have heard or your just an idiot.
Charles Brooks
dude whaaat the fuck. all you had to do was turn your fucking phone off at work.
Brandon Miller
it will be $100k this year and i dont even own any btc
Asher Johnson
Hahahahahaha there’s no way this can be real holy fuck. How can a man be that spineless? How can a man not do adequate research and instead only hold bitcoin and panic when it goes down.
This is essentially natural selection for idiots who need a virtual 5 minute dopamine fix. Let this be a lesson for the rest of your life. What’s even funnier to me is that bitcoin will end the year sitting around atleast over 25k.
Funny guy you are. All you had to do was hold Chainlink.
He can still make up for his losses by going all in Chainlink. But he probably won't read this anymore.
Dylan Lee

John Parker
live in a smallish city with a population of about 150k, 3-4 bedroom homes are like 500k-600k, brand new condos are in the 220-300k range, not that bad. My mortgage is a bit over 1k/month and if I'd been renting instead I'd be paying like 800-1000/month anyway
Anyway I'm going to bed, I came here for some support from the only friends I have left (you guys) and instead I get ridiculed and called a pathetic loser. I guess trying to do better in life makes a guy a loser? Oh well. Tomorrow a new adventure begins and I'll see if I can pick up the pieces and rebuild.
Ryan James
you got what you needed. real honest opinion your life didnt just "suddenly" fall apart, its been falling apart for year this was just the straw that broke the camels back. only thing left to do is just fall, hit rock bottom and start your descent to the top. if you can even make it to the bottom. trust me, i know bud
Nathaniel Powell
user, I will help you because you have guilt tripped me. I have inside information. Use what you have left and buy BCH. You will still come out at least 5x greater than before you made your initial investment into BTC @ $16k /

Honestly the worst part of all of that was that you sold.

Your "friends" are trying to shilling you bags of shit right in this thread. Stay away from crypto, it's a dead ponzi scheme.
Henry Perry
pussy
Luis Barnes
How did anyone fucking think bitcoin would hit 100k? By 18k the fees were beyond insanity. Did you really believe people were going to spend $100 in fees to send their bitcoin to an exchange or withdrawal?

Crypto isn't a scam, you're just a pump-chasing faggot who got dumped on.

sell btc but only to bbuy link or req instead.
Jace Adams
Good good. The more of these resignation posts we see the closer we are to reversal. Time to buy soon.
Jonathan Ross
Nice larp pajeet. If you faggots don't hold then you deserve to be poor.
Blake White
OP..... I have 3 words for you and I promise you it will change your life...
Buy chainlink
Smart contract adoption is coming. It's your way out.
Then you can go to your work once you make it and urinate on the face of the guy who reprimanded you for using your phone too much.
And he will have gonarhea on his face because you will have been fucking hot bitches all week because you got rich from chainlink
Parker Price
reminder that these thread are psyop to instill more fear into you sage, report, hide.
Charles Sanders
The night is darkest before the dawn
Andrew Gomez
Thanks for your service, soldier.
In all seriousness, and if no larp, you picked pretty much the worst time to sell. And this is why understand the basics of TA would have helped you.
William Brooks
I blame you because if you just fucking lurked more instead of blindly fomo'ing in at the last fucking minute and then selling low after buying high then you would be fine. You have only yourself to blame.
Mason Kelly
if this is all true, the dumbest thing you could do right now is never look back.
This bear market probably isnt over but i recommend saving up and accumulating in the future when bitcoin is lower.
We will experience atleast 2 or 3 more hype cycles before we find our equilibrium - there is no doubt about this.
Take some time off and rebuild your life, save money, have fun. Crypto fucking sucks but we all have an opportunity of a lifetime to make it.
I have lost a lot of money too in the past, and now im taking a longer-term, patient approach.
Whenever this bear market is over, and it one day it will end, we will breach ath, probably getting to 100k, before another bubble pops and we probably settle somewhere between 10-30k.
Rinse and repeat.... I have no doubt we will be seeing bitcoin worth 200k+ in the next 5 years.
Go back to the historical charts, look at the weekly and monthly charts too.
This is just the beginning.
Jeremiah Thomas
>He finally sold. >Start the DIP phase to make him feel good. >BUY UP everything >gg wp
Another life changing opportunity is missed by you
Please don't KYS after reaching 20k this year
Landon Campbell
you dont sell, you tether, during bear markets. buy back in on confirmation of bull market. crypto has many little ups and downs inside larger ups and downs.
why even check it if youre not going to tether or pull out?
Connor Lopez
Oh look yet another FUD post so you can sell your BTC on the cheap just to FOMO back in later
Liam Lopez
>dont you do research before you invest or speculate on things if this was clearly your first time ever doing this? of course not, hes a fucking normie, he just does things

People telling OP he should have tether are idiots.
Tether is a wildcat bank who is currently being investigated.Once the US feds kicks in the door the whole rotten structure will come crashing down.
People in Tether are going to lose everything.
Easton Hughes
>$70k a year job
>Reprimanded for checking phone
If you're gonna LARP, LARP well
My fucking god if this is real, wait NO... It's not real!
not doing any research and just doing things and then checking your phone so many times you got fired even though youre just hodling anyways. you could have got a smartwatch, you could have set your phone to vibrate for price alarms set during trend lines. you could have learned some basic ta. insteasd you just bought bitcoin because your peers where doing it, you hodled because your peers where doing it, you didnt know what the fuck you were doing and you didnt bother to learn. and then after buying at that high and not tethering as it falls and waiting for it to come up again, basic fucking move. you just sat there in self pity as your life fell apart due to your own lack of... frankly, masculinity.
youre a s oy boy normie.
buy the dip and act smart next time. theres no boss to tell you what to do in crypto, you have to think and act on your own in crypto. you cant just do what other people are telling you, crypto doesnt work like that everyone is trying to shill you. the market is manipulated to trick you. dont be a brainlet. get back in the game with only money you can afford to lose and dont be retarded about it this time.
next bull market probably begins somewhere between now and 6800, which is fucking obvious if you learn how to read a chart and draw some trend lines. if it fails to do that and it keeps going down itll go as low as 3000 tops and i dont even believe it could go down low. you have to be ready to tether, set price alerts, buy dips, set stop losses, etc. figure it out
but youre a brainlet normie that needs people to tell him how to act or you freeze and panic so crypto probably isnt for you. stay poor
Jace Howard
it failed because op is a retard and he left his own thread after only 3 comments. hes probably not even reading anymore. what an asshole
Jose Powell
You sold the bottom....
Blake Price
the fud failed because everyone in this thread is thinking "this could have been prevented if op wasnt a moron" and since almost nobody thiks of themselves as morons, nobody sees this happening to them. and since op is stupid and op just sold, thats an indicator that maybe now was a dumb time to sell. but we watch the charts and actually make moves on that so unless it flash crashes several thousand in our sleep we will be fine and even then, stop losses and price alarms and stablecoins will soften the blow.
Luke Perry
fine, pick a different stable coin. tether is fine for short term hodling but long term sure theres potential risk. but there are alternatives to tether, you could even diversify your stablecoin holdings while you wait out a bear market. or just lose everything you gained and then watch your investment melt away as it slowly bleeds out tens of thousands of dollars per coin a month
Samuel Brown
So. You sold at the bottom.
Logan Baker
Oh OP so many mistakes in your thread that you seriously should start looking yourself in the mirror. Lets start from the basics.
>Never invest your money into investments that you cant afford to lose. Seems from your argument that you went all-in with your money. The reason why smart people are relaxed and not stressed is because they treat invested money as "Lost" money. >Bought at 16k. Shit happens bro. You never sell in a minus. You either wait for 0 net profit or sell at a profit. You lose when you sell. Thats the name of the game. >Being obsessed. This implies my first argument. You were so obsessed because you didnt have money IRL. >Reprimanded (Wtf does that mean talk normal way). So basically you were hanging too much in your cellphone. Dude you dont get fired because you are in your phone. You get fired because you are a shit worker. Damn dude in my place its allowed to smoke 2x per day. I smoke still 10x per day and walk around but its because my work is fucking done and i do it in a quality manner. You need to make yourself desirable at the work place and then you dont get fired idiot. >Start calling in sick. This is actually a mental midget mentality. Wtf you dont go to work because you are afraid of being "Reprimanded". GTFO here. It seems you age must be below 18 or something. >Girlfriend dumped you. Well then you must be ugly. When i told my bitch i deal with crypto and stocks she just eats my dick even more. Also you must understand that women are a declining resource. >Quit answering friends. Again you are aged below 18 or you are just a mental midget. Go outside jesus. >Havnt left my condo in 20 days. Who to blame here? Mommy? >Freedom? Nah you are just going to be wagecuck for the rest of your life.
TLDR: >OP is a mental midget fuck probably aged below 18 and is whining why the world is not turning at his speed. Dude stop being a pussy beta and take a grip in your life and become an alpha. Its all in your head.
>you lose when you sell if its a bear market coming and you sell that lets you buy more coins at the dip. sometimes you got to lose some money to gain a larger amount of money.
James Murphy
OP, i also bought at 16k. Unlike you however, hardly ever check the price. I have a good job and have been continuing to stock up all year and slowly averaging my cost downwards. I never look at my phone at work except lunch time, sometimes I go days without even check my portfolio because it's not worth bothering until later this year anyway.
When BTC unironically hits 100k you are going to feel even dumber than you already do.
Kevin King
The fees were high because of an attack by bitmain on behalf of their shitcoin bcash which they hoped would seem more promising then.
