Nice digits.
Also, me. Prove: Shilled ETH when it was $8, then later made memes about Bitbean, Digibytes, Antshares. Even got out of Confido before the joosting. Made good money on Dragonchain.
So to your question:

>started with only 100€ (poorfag)
>gambled some away in shitcoins
>you never buy bottom / sell top

I cashed out around ~15k€ over the time and still have about 10k€ in crypto today (only BTC and ETH) for the sake of it. More into stocks now

I bought Doge on the day it was released. Bought 30 BTC when it was $100ish . Would have been cool if I held even a little bit of it for longer than a few months. Thanks for bringing it up.

2013 here. I just bought BTC and hedl. Got into alts only at the end of 2017, inexperienced, so you can guess how that turned out.

Got my act together by Q4 2018 and
hit 1million in summer 2019. At about 400k now, happy to wait it out as I believe I'll be well into ATH again soon enough.

in crypto since 2012.

Bought at around 800$ (november 2012 somewhere). Mt.Gox crash happens. Lose about everything.

Keep accumulating untill 2015. Get a bad tax form, bought house, have mortgage, bitcoin death for 3 years by then. Sell around 16BTC to pay bills.

Still have a bit over, make about 40k profit in 2017. Now own 1 BTC

I don't know if you can count it as "in crypto at least summer of 2016" since I wasn't consistent. I bought my first .25 BTC for around $200 in late 2013 and got dumped on. Gave up on crypto and forgot about it until early 2017. So I missed heavy accumulation for both crypto bubbles. I'm a fucking retard.

This is the sad truth: was on bitcointalk from 2013, had about 5 or 6 bitcoin and sank it all into NEM when comefrombeyond invented it.... gave up in 2015 & sold 1 million for about $300, would have been $3 million in 2017. Realised I still had a couple of grands worth on Bittrex (had been like $20!) ... rode some pumps in sequence including Ripple, Antshares & then Nexus, got up to 50 BTC then back down to about 20... cashed out $70k to pay of all debts which was great. Then rode the 20BTC to the top. In January 2017 bought 200k Chainlink (no joke) then about 6months later you fags FUD’d me out of it & took my bags... now I’ve got 1BTC & lots of alt bags bought at the top which I’m not selling at the bottom. Well it’s been a fun ride. My best alt bag is 250k MAN

should do the job next bullrun
Yeah I made some bad calls, still in the game for 4BTC, ages since I put any fiat in, gonna ride this down & back up, my stacks should make it this time I have learned a lot by now & not selling anything too soon

Thanks, realising I pissed away $3million toughened me up ha ha so even throwing away $800k worth of link (so far!) was just another mild slap in the face.

ive been in since 2010, mined .1 btc a day on a laptop from a web browser cpu miner. had a period in 2015 where my gpu miners were printing 60 dollars a day profit in vertcoin. sold the all before 2017. am still poor due to bad timing and immature decision making like the previous example. I'm back on my grind and finally mature enough to see through the garbage here (i think)
