2017 was a stupid crazy year.

Got rekt, made bank, got rekt again, future unknown.

Reflecting on wins/losses and learning to prep for 2020+ #crypto

Thread 👇
2/ The noob enters.

Bought about $20k of Alts/btc in August 2017.

Didn't know what I was doing. Some coins looked 'cheap' so bought them.

Had no idea how to do this but was excited.
3/ Got lucky with $NEO

It went from $5 to $40.

Thought holy crap this is easy!

Obviously I didn't sell so it was all money 'on paper'.

Threw it around impatiently at other Alts.

Had 32,000 $WTC, Sold at ~$1 🤦🏾‍♂️
Had 30,000 $BNB, Sold at ~$1.50 🤦🏾‍♂️

Both went on to hit $30+
4/ Was a pure moonboy

Throwing money around at anything green.

Then December 2017, holy crap, pretty much everything had 10x'd, some 100x.

I held all the way up, and then down, again didn't sell 🤦🏾‍♂️
5/ Bear market.

2018-2020 was brutal for alts.

But I had found NFTs and trading them was insanely profitable.

Made more money than ever, all in preparation for the next bull cycle.

Now I knew what not to do, which projects turn to dust, which might go on to be huge, etc.
6/ Now we're at #Bitcoin almost breaking ATH.

And I'm applying the following rules to myself.

- Spread my portfolio among projects I'm very certain about ranging from low cap to mid cap.

- Don't FOMO buy.

- SELL/BUY at increments. Don't just hodl.
7/ - Don't go from 'all in' to 'all in', having exposure to multiple possible unicorn projects makes me sleep better.

- Always have usdt/Dai on ready. (In my own wallet - not an exchange). For dips, NFT opportunities, etc. Having no liquid $ means you'll miss opportunities.
8/ - Avoid at all costs anything that smells of BS.

- Top 20-30 coins have a 'soft spot' among 2017 entrants.

Most will re-enter next bull market and will probably throw money at the same coins.

So I got a bag of those.
9/ NFT projects with a product out and buzzing Community means they'll be sharing it on social media,

Whether it's an Axie tourney, Decentraland meetups, Sandbox games, etc.

Anything that looks good on socials + user base growth = I invest.
10/ Not investing in just a 'good idea', gotta be well funded, good marketing budget/mind, tech team strong, not a copy/paste, solves a problem or is mega fun to play.

- Got a bag of 'possible moonshots'. Those low cap coins' that have something brewing.
11/ Just enjoy the ride.

2017 had me stressing daily, sad over a red day, but if I just relaxed I would have made better decisions.

Hence why I diversify and chill/keep blogging/making vids etc, doing stuff that keeps me busy building.
12/ These points are ALL advice to myself.

Just sharing what I'm going to do differently.

I have like 50 different coins, a range of NFTs covering the most promising industries, and even websites being built.

Some might go nowhere, some might go nuts.
13/ My bags are basically made of top 10-20 projects that have strong awareness channels, (not including a few).

10-20 NFT/DeFi related projects from $5M - $150M marketcaps.

BTC, ETH ofcourse,

Huge range of NFTs that cover most promising industries.
Obviously no one knows what's going to happen in 2021+ but will be here to enjoy the ride or cry with you all 😂

Good luck!
Also want to say - Noob entered, still a noob lol! Still learning, no idea if this strategy is good.

But implementing things I didn't last time around. Let's see if it works out better this time!
