After one year in the cryptocurrency world, I thought it was about time that I'd share some thoughts on my experience.
I suffer from a severe fear of missing out, FOMO, in all parts of my life. I also love anything that is risky and I'm always up for taking chances.
That makes it harder to navigate in the world of currencies.
The ups are amazing and the downs gives you anxiety.
When it's going good, it's all fun and games.
But then you check Coinbase right before bedtime and it's not so fun anymore.
The other night, I saw that the value of BTC was decreasing, so much that I thought to myself: "okay, I should sell everything and save what's left."
I woke up many times during the night thinking about it.
The next morning I woke up, ran to my computer and saw that BTC had gone up to the same level as before it started to decrease in value. Two days later it had gone up by 15% too.
It's hard not to freak out and panic when you see the numbers go down. But I do keep in mind that it's not money that I can't afford to loose. As it all came from Steemit.
I never had a significant amount of money held up in cryptocurrencies, because when I lived in Australia I needed the money, and cashed out.
Now that I am back in Norway and making money from my business, I saved up some Steem Dollars and bought various CC.
My friend, 
I'm very happy about that now..
The last thing I do before I go to bed, is to check Coinbase, and it's also the first thing I do in the morning. What have I become?
What is this sorcery?
At the moment I've only got MLN, BTC and ETH. I would love advice on other promising currencies from you guys.
I've done so many stupid things in my crypto "career".
The one desicion I regret the most, was selling all my Golem..
#WHY ?
How do you guys deal with stupid decisions like that? I want to hit myself in my head with a heavy book!
I've had many micro breakdowns that were based on some kind of currency issues. The one time when I decided to sell something and Coinbase was down, was one of them.
