My Bitcoin Journey – part 2

Exploring bitcoin and shit-coins

Most Bitcoiners have have probably been in the phase “Fuck Around, Find Out”. Hopefully, not too long, but my period lasted for at least 3-4 weeks before learnt trading bitcoin and shitcoins wasn’t not worth it. It was in the start of the bear-market in 2022 and I lost every bet I entered. I lost about $500-700 in these weeks, but learnt a lesson.

“Never trade crypto. There are too many better traders than you”.

I think I stopped the trading learning phase around June 2022, and spent the time learning more. I kept $100 on the trading platform as play money. Bought some audio books and watched bitcoin Youtube videos.

Books

I’m using audible.co.uk for my audio books. I seldom buy real books any more. Only those worth taking notes in – especially with many graphs.
