Sorry for your loss, older and wiser now i hope.
I pay my taxes, not happy about it, but just has to be done, wouldn’t mind if they spent the money sensibly.
I remember how so slow polo got, I was late for work one night, was making good profits trading then, my boss asked why I was late, I said I was busy trading, didn’t even lie, he looked at me disapprovingly.
I told him when I earnt as much at work as I did at home id prioritise work.
I put in alot of hours trading though, but many staggered trades.
I didn’t mind if I held btc or maid as it wasn’t my whole bag, just a portion, so was happy to reap the the rewards.
You betcha - saddest part was my wife thought I was going to pay off all of our mortgage with that money money - I DID tell her it only existed on the screen and until it was cashed out we should regard it as just not existing but it was still a very sore loss - and here we are now - no work nor any real prospect of work and the banks still want their mortgage paid - cos if we dontt pay our mortgages then civilisation will collapse and poor shareholders in the US and Switzerland might be slightly worse off and that would never do. Goodness me, we wouldnt be able to make sure the Israelis didnt have enough bombs and other really terrible things.
That doesn’t hurt, it’s where we belong & are heading back to.
Lets be real here, we should be above Litecoin, don’t even get me started about BCash and Ripple.
Give it 1 more year for the public to realize just how great we are. Back in 2017 when we were underperforming in the bull run I’ve considered selling my position to buy back when testnet would be near. I’m just so glad I realized that this project was to good to pass up on.
Looking at the very thin orderbook now I would be very nervous if I didn’t have my hodl position. Mark me, price will be going through the roof soon.
Story continues… He arived yesterday and I had everything prepared to help him move his money out of his coldwallet and stuff. I was prepared to tell him once again why he should hodl but he realised already by himself during the night.
Eventually he sold only those MAID, which he had at Bittrex, not touching all those on cold wallets.
So no OTC buy for me while he still has 8/9 of his original stack. Btw., he told me his wife stoped him to reduce their crypto exposure. Lol
