🔥 My Most Shitty Investments Challenge!

in Project HOPE4 years ago

Hello!

Some days ago @trumpman started a challenge called "My most shitty investment" and I have been nominated by @empoderat to write a post about mine.

I always have been looking for ways to make more money outside of my daily job. This has let me to a bunch of failures but they never come with a learning story. I can write a thousand words about all of them but as I am writing in a crypto social platform I will talk about some shitcoins I have invested in 2017.

I started investing in crypto at the beggining of 2017 if I am not wrong. These days were exciting as I was a complete noob. I was reading all the information available to almost all of the projects I could find.

What make the process fun is that I was sharing all this journey with my roommate. We invested some money in the TOP crypto projects at the moment such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Eos, Stellar, etc.

But now starts the fun part. We decided to pick up 3 shitcoins, almost randomly and invest a few bucks on them.

This were the choices:

  • Patientory - PTOY (Health Care related project)
  • Funfair - FUN (Casino related project)
  • Verge - XVG (Privacy related project

And in the following lines I will show you the results 😂😂😂


Patientory

I lost everything as it went to almost 0€. I don't know anything about the project, but it seems dead.

Funfair

I lost everything as it went to almost 0€. I think the project is still alive, but I am out.

The most valuable leason was learned with Verge

With this altcoin I experienced what the 2017 ICO crazyness was. I multiplied for more than x20 my investment in a really short period of time.
My roommate and I were amazed and surprised by what was happening and...

WE NEVER SOLD!!

And now I am almost -50% down on this shitcoin.
I don't know if the project itself is a scam or not but I am not selling this one 🤡

The lesson is easy: TAKE PROFITS MOTHERFUCKER!

And I can promise you that I will not forget that one.

EVER

I believe for every shitty investment, there is valuable lesson to be learnt. I am still trying to figure out my own shitty investment though

If you don't have any shitty investment you are so lucky!

So sorry about your loss it can be very painful to lose investment but thank you for sharing it here, it will help us not to fall victim of the terrible sites.
