Hope your losses becames profits. And i wish your crypto coin matket go up. I am very hopeful about crypto market

Yeah, all you can do is laugh. It's tough to swallow those losses but nothing else you can do.  I think my biggest blunder was buying into EDG when it was just over a dollar. News of them coming out with a gaming license was the reason. It got up over $2.50 at one point but I was greedy and ended up watching it plummet.  I think its around 30 cents right now.

I haven't invested a penny but i started earning steem and sbd when they were around 7$, and today they are below dollar! 
should i count it as lose or not? 
but i have earned it with hardwork and fully dedication.

Hmm,  I don't want to say sorry, because I know you are much more stronger than that... Smile

I'm not one of the early adopters of anything, I want to see many people doing it before I do it, this habit is bad as I have lost so many opportunities as a result, but it has saved me from fallen into some troubles as well.  For this reason, the only money I've ever lost on cryptocurrencies are as a result of drop in value of my steemit reward and the loss of my first steemit account.  At least, I've lost something too,  and I need to laugh instead of crying.... Smile

Well, that's cryptocurrency markets. They go up and down quite drastically.

If you are playing the short-term game it's very risky. If you are here for the long-run, then it doesn't matter, just wait for it to raise again from ashes :)

Also, due diligence is needed when investing.  Did you look what Z-Classic, MANA, EMC2 and the others do and don't do? Do you know how they work? How they are maintained? What consensus algorithm they use? What about the developer team, how active is the project? And so on... If any red flag, just don't speculate buying into it.

Ultimately, good luck and enjoy the ride :D

I came with nothing, raised it up to about $650 at its near high - and through circumstances, I _had_ to power it down, so turned  it into dollars at  $5 - 3.50 range.... Well 80 % of it or so..

So while it hurt for me to do it at the time ..( I _really had_ to do it)

I'm not feeling _too bad_ about it now....
😂 😂 

(this had nothing to do with skill, it was just life deciding the timing)

I haven't had any gigantic losses yet, given I've only invested 5 Euros of actual currency.

Maybe the 80$ worth of Eth I send into Tron so as to test out cropbytes is a loss, given it's been months and there's still no actual playable game (and I can't be bothered to wait for their stupid "game asset flash sales" that make the entire game right no just buying assets in the sales and trying to trade them on at a higher price)

I have spend quite some ETH/STEEM playing around with DApps and such, though I made most of it back with my little artworks on superrare.

I hope you are aware how lucky you are! The sums you are talking about is really not much.
In December I made 40k+ and a lot of that I exchanged for Steem and did the biggest mistake in converting it into SP!
Now this was really the worst move to make, because my money got locked into Steem and all I could do was watch my investment get lower without being able to park it in USDT as everybody in his right mind would have done.
So by now, I have not only lost all my gains, but also most of my initial investment of several thousand US$.
And you know what? Even I am lucky compared to people who have lost MUCH more...

They're not losses until you sell, so I'm HODLing. I did sell 6 BTC at $800 in March 2017 to pay my taxes, only to cry at the highs last winter. *That's* a loss.

I've lost money on Blackcoin and Viva, just to name a couple.  Not all my picks have been winners.  Happens to the best of us.

I put about 10kUSD into a company called DPW that just opened a bitcoin mining operation when bitcoin was flying. I made the biggest rookie mistake and chased a stock that was shooting up. I bought at $5 a share. It quickly plummeted, and to make matters worse, they immediately started diluting the stock.   It's at .40 now and it's so low it's not even worth selling at a loss. I'm just stuck holding the bags and hoping it goes back up someday.

Ohhhhh everyone sad for down market....everyone hopes market going up soon....some peoples says market going up for december....the cryptocurrency continous to suffer a major this below this...coin is going down with the market dip....The outlook for next year rising and rising rates...thanks for sharing..

My initial investment is down 80% :( but still HODLing strong, I believe patience is key!

recently i just invest into ACM TOKEN from GCOX, i think this is a quite new concept project and not bad.. u can have a look too :)
https://gcox.com/
they just finished their 1st ITS, feedback not bad 
since they launching their ITS now and the price quite reasonable, maybe can try to invest into it maybe can bring us double or triple return XD

Work is slow so all I put in is time. I still learn something every once in a while so its worth it.

My account here was over 16 grand, now its barely 3. The part that hurts is I knew better and was even telling my friends to take some off the table. I took out some, but not nearly enough!
