Just packed my bags and walked away from the trading desk. Final score? Down $24k.
The journey was wild though. Hit seven figures at the peak—yeah, that actually happened. Then Libra wiped me out. Trump token finished the job. Thought I was done.
But mid-2025 rolled around and I clawed my way back. Portfolio was breathing again. Then this crash hit and I did the classic move—tried catching that falling knife. Spoiler: knives are sharp.
Market doesn't care about your comeback story. It just keeps moving.
Maybe I'll be back next cycle. Maybe not. Right now I'm just taking the L and moving on.

What’s 24k? For retail investors like us, we’re already used to it. The key is if you can walk out of the trading room alive—that’s a win.
---
From seven figures to a 24k loss, that’s crypto for you... the knife really is sharp.
---
The moment you try to catch the bottom, your fate is sealed—just as bad as my last time.
---
After so many ups and downs and still surviving, your mentality is really tough.
---
That Libra wave was brutal, but the final blow from the Trump token was the deadliest.
---
Next cycle: comeback or bail out—either way, the market doesn’t care what you think.
---
Lost 24k but kept your life; some people got liquidated completely, you know...
---
Put nicely, it’s called cutting losses; to put it bluntly... never mind, I’m the same way.

24k? Bro, that's still considered mild. I've seen even crazier ones.
