In 2018, I sold my entire portfolio at the pico bottom. I went from $80k to $2.5k. Burnt myself out by overtrading and eventually running out of funds. It made me fully distrust crypto, I was fully out. About two years later that $2.5k would've been $1M dollars. $80k -> $2.5k -> $1M. The whole experience was sobering. It's not about what you can buy, it's about what you can hold through times like these. My advice to newcomers: stay solvent during the lows so you realize the highs. Don't make the same mistakes I've made.
