This game is hard. Thread 🧵
But the good thing is crypto always gives you another chance.
Back in Q4 2018, I was completely depressed.
My portfolio was down ~90%.
Silence everywhere. No hype. No noise.
Instead of quitting, I went deep into research mode.
Found some L1 gems and started exploring #DeFi very early.
That phase paid off.
From the bottom, I managed 200x–250x gains.
But I made a big mistake—didn’t book enough profits.
In 2022, everything fully retraced.
Once again, my portfolio was down ~90%.
A painful reminder that gains mean nothing without discipline.
Q4 2022—silence again.
But I kept looking for alpha.
This time, I caught the #AI narrative early.
In 2023 alone, I made 14x–17x from the bottom.
A strong comeback.
But in 2024, I started breaking again.
Got a couple of chances in 2024 when I made new ATH & did 20x
But once more, failed to fully capitalize.
Now we are in Dec 2025.
Silence all around.
Portfolio down 80–85%.
And I’m asking myself—what’s next? 🤔
One thing I’ve learned:
The early days of a bull cycle are everything.
Just like 2019–2020, 2023, and early 2024
80% of the gains are made early.
Later, greed kicks in.
We start chasing garbage.
Discipline fades.
That’s also when scammers become most active,
Extracting money from emotional and undisciplined traders.
What if 2026 is the early phase of the altcoin rally?
And most people are sidelined again?
History doesn’t repeat, but it rhymes.
People get stuck in the same loop every cycle.
Sometimes, you must take hard decisions to break out of the loop.
Be brutal with selling,
no matter how bullish the market feels.
Make your own exit plan on paper.
Stick it on your workplace.
Read it every single day.
In 2022, I wrote a WhatsApp message to a crypto friend:
“If I reach my target, you must force me to book at least 50%.
If I refuse, take my Ledger and sell.”
But he was a crypto guy too
just like us.
Greedy. Hopeful. Emotional.
Never trust a person who confuses you.
Confusion kills profits.
If you assign this job,
give it to a non-crypto person.
Someone who doesn’t understand narratives, but understands rules.
The moral of the story:
Keep booking profits regularly.
I’ve been saying this for the last 9 years.
Whether I always implemented it perfectly or not that’s a different story.
But one thing I know for sure 👇
People in my group who stayed disciplined,
who booked profits on time,
made life-changing gains.
Not because they were smarter.
Not because they caught every top.
But because they followed rules.
The market rewards discipline, not predictions.

@BoldPrime My account got suspended without any reason. I just got this email. In past when I made loss there wasn’t any issues at that time. Now I made profit and made first withdrawal you are blocking my account and saying that I can’t make withdrawal except my initial funds. This is ridiculous, either let me do trades and earn your brokerage or let me withdraw my funds and I will be finding another broker.
