After getting drained of all my crypto, my Bitcoin strategy has changed.
I may do an AMA about how I lost it, so it doesn't happen to someone else.
But, starting from zero really gives you a new perspective.
I used to be able to say I have been in crypto since 2017.
Now it kind of feels like I'm starting all over.
So I as of a few weeks ago, I say, I've been in Bitcoin since it was over $100k.
It doesn't feel horrible, I can't even say it feels late.
What it does though is give me the perspective of anything under new ATH is a fucking steal.
So I'm buying the dips. Knowing, that at some point, it will probably dip under $100k, and I will have technically over paid in previous purchases.
And that's ok. The new strategy now, is:
Stack sats. As much as possible by any means possible.
Losing everything has actually made me a Bitcoin Maxi.
I don't care about any other crypto anymore. Just $BTC.
I just want to stack sats and starting over at $100k+ just kind of makes me appreciate it more.
My new strategy is buying 10k sats at a time during the dips. Maybe more if the dip is strong enough.
But it also makes it easy to tell new folks, who have never been in crypto, that it's not too late.
If I'm starting over, and they are starting new, we are in the same place.
And that's kind of cool.

We all fuck up an one point or another, what determines whether we wither or thrive is whether we are willing to learn from the fuckups. Looks like you are! Respect.
Sometimes, life's most precious lessons are very expensive... I lost most of my stack in the beginning of 2022 as I thought 100k was inevitable in 2021... I had been borrowing fiat against my BTC (and even some shitcoins at the time), thinking I could live off the appreciation of my coins. Losing it made me realize that I actually have to provide value to the world in order to thrive, which led me to have a more serious go at a music career (which didn't work out), pick up yoga and try to become a yoga teacher (which didn't work out/I got disillusioned with), start writing (has worked out to some extent but not as a profession), and start a Bitcoin-based business (hasn't taken off the ground properly yet, but hasn't exactly failed either).
So yeah, what I'm trying to say is... stay humble, stay curious, and keep building 💪

Thanks for sharing. My stomach turned reading about your loss but the greater lesson for me is in how you’re gracefully handling it. Keep stacking!

Realising that all other crypto is DINO shitcoin is a major step forward. Sorry to hear it came at such a cost, but going forward you are now on more solid ground.

thanks man. there really is something kind of freeing when you lose it all. it makes you appreciate it that much more. Your priorities shift. You realize what's most important.
Still have my health, my mind, my love, and an ability to keep stacking.
