#MyCryptoFunnyMoment


My funniest crypto moment is honestly a whole saga that still hurts to remember, but makes me laugh every time. It all started during a crazy bull run when every random coin was pumping and everyone on Twitter suddenly became a “professional trader.” I had just turned a small profit on one lucky trade, so my confidence went through the roof. I truly believed I had unlocked the secret of the market. I increased my position size, opened multiple trades, and started telling my friends, “Don’t worry, I’ll teach you crypto soon.” 😂
Then came that one terrible night. I aped into a trending token purely based on hype and emojis in the comments. No research, no plan, just pure FOMO. At first, it pumped slightly and I felt like a genius again. I even took screenshots of my unrealized profit like it was already mine. Five minutes later, the chart turned red. Not “healthy pullback” red I mean waterfall red. My heart was racing, my hands were shaking, and I kept refreshing the chart like that would somehow fix it.
Instead of sticking to my stop loss, I told myself, “It will bounce. It always bounces.” It did not bounce. Liquidation warnings started popping up like horror movie jump scares. In full panic mode, I closed the trade at a massive loss right at the exact bottom. The second I sold… the candle turned green. One green candle. Then another. Then a massive pump. The same position that just destroyed my account started flying like nothing happened.
I couldn’t accept reality. My brain went into full revenge-trade mode. Without thinking, I re-entered the same trade at a worse price, chasing the pump like my life depended on it. For about three minutes, I was in profit again and feeling redeemed. Then the market decided to humble me one final time a huge sell wall appeared out of nowhere, the price dumped instantly, and I got liquidated before I could even blink. Two losses, same coin, same hour. Perfect execution… of bad decisions.
The worst part? I stayed awake all night staring at the chart like it was my toxic ex, knowing I should leave but unable to look away. By morning, the coin had fully recovered and even made a new all-time high. The profit I could have had was bigger than my actual portfolio at that moment. I just laughed at myself in silence. No tears. Just acceptance.
That day taught me more than any trading course ever could.
I learned about FOMO, overconfidence, revenge trading, and how fast crypto can turn dreams into comedy.
Now every time I feel the urge to chase a pump, I remember that night and my double loss combo.
Crypto didn’t just take my money it gave me a lifetime memory and a great story to tell.
