Last week I had decided to buy some steem, some antshares and some dogecoin, thinking of a longer term investment. However, today my husband wanted to purchase a different coin thinking of a short term profit, and granted, he didn't tell me that I should also purchase some, but I decided I wanted to. I didn't want to invest too much and I had about $50 worth of Steem from my posts lying around that I hadn't powered up, so I thought I would play safe, and just use that.
My husband said that I should get at least $200 to make it worth my time, so I sold $200 worth of BAT that I had to buy more of the coin, which then dropped in value, so that was a lesson learnt I guess. And hey, whats a lesson learnt if you can't write a blog post about it?
I have already been trying to educate myself as much as possible on cryptocurrency, being so new and having so much to learn, but this experience reminded me that having the tools yourself to form your own decisions when it comes to cryptocurrency, rather than having to rely on the advice of others is really important. No matter how knowledgable someone is they can't predict the future, and you don't want to regret taking others advice.
Have you guys made some crypto decisions that you have lived to regret? What resources did you/do you use to educate yourself more on crypto and how to trade that you would reccomend for me?
Thanks so much for reading, reach out to me in the comments below!! Hope you had a great and profitable weekend!
