We all make mistakes. The most successful people tend to make the most mistakes, because it means they’re putting themselves out there and trying new things, taking risks, and being willing to be wrong. Leaving the safety of their comfort zone.
Mistakes are how we learn. You don’t learn much (if anything) by finding success. It is when we err, and especially when we reflect on our errors, that we learn.
I’ve made more mistakes than I can count or even remember; both in life, and in crypto. Let’s not focus on all my poor life choices over the years (for your sake as much as mine), and instead look at the mistakes I’ve made in crypto. I hope that by sharing these, and what I learned from them, you might be able to learn a little something too.
Unfortunately I think many lessons in crypto have to be learned the hard way — by making them yourself. Still, occasionally someone can sidestep a landmine based on something they once read and I guess that’s what I’m shooting for here. To help you sidestep landmines.
I’ve called this part 1 because once I started writing, I realized I’ve made way too many mistakes to fit in one post — not to mention I am sure to make many more in the future. So I will likely make this a recurring post, perhaps a couple of times a year.
(sidenote but I’ll specifically be talking about mistakes related to trading and investing today; for mistakes I made as the founder of a project, I already wrote about them here in case you want to read those — see, lots of mistakes!)
Without further ado…
