💔 From the top to the bottom: my toughest lesson in the world of cryptocurrencies 📉
When the market rises, FOMO can be unstoppable. I experienced it firsthand:
At 30 years old, with a modest salary and seeking stability, I entered the world of cryptocurrencies on the recommendation of a college friend. At first, it seemed like an exciting opportunity, but soon I found myself trapped in a cycle of buying at peaks and getting stuck in drops.
💡 What did I learn along the way?
• Without a strategy, FOMO rules: Every bullish move felt like "the last opportunity." But it wasn't, and my lack of planning turned every impulse into a costly lesson.
• The price of uncontrolled risk: The losses affected not only my wallet but also my confidence and mental well-being.
• The value of support: In my worst moment, when I confessed my situation to my parents, they didn't judge me. They reminded me that true strength lies in starting over, this time with a clear mind and a conscious approach.
🌱 Today I know that markets are unpredictable, but our mindset and discipline can make a difference. Now I move forward with smaller, but firmer steps, and with a clear strategy.
