Sometimes I think the peace I lost will never be worth it.

Even if one day I profit out of crypto, the mental health stress it caused me may never be repaid.

Today I wake up, start eating breakfast and what is the first post reddit recommends me? A post about a losing all his money to a hack.

I am a very empathic person, I immediately put myself on ops shoes and feel terrible, heck that is why I am writing this post, I am feeling so stressed of it that I found the urge to express myself.

I bought crypto, put it on ledger wallet, staked ada on yoroi and that is it. I never engaged on contracts or anything, I only did this one transaction to transfer crypto to my ledger wallet. And for half a year I would look how many Ada I had daily, how many ada I was winning in the staking pool. But came the winter and well I watched my funds go down a huge per cent. For my sake, I stopped following the crypto eco space and left my funds there quietly and stopped looking, me watching the numbers would not make them go up after all...

The bear market was already stressful enough, I thought I was mentally strong but I was wrong, in moments of doubt I thought I was the most idiotic person in the world for investing so much money on crypto (not my life savings but still a huge amount). I am sort of ok now in regards to that, all I wanted was to sell to a mitigated loss.

But seeing the scam posts make me sick as well, I feel like it could be me, that one day I will just go to my wallet and find that is zeroed because of [insert here one of the many things that could go wrong].

If I could go back in time I would haver never bought crypto and I don't know how much profit I would have to make for me to regret this statement. I would never counsel someone to buy it, not even to my worst enemy.

You know what is worst? I actually do like the idea of crypto, yes banks are very handy but they also makes us hostages and I hate that.

This world we live in... is just too hard. Life should not be like this for so many of us. Thank you for reading and I hope on the very least we will see the rockets soon.
