The thing which I gained from cryptocurrency trading is that it always keeps me on edge, improved my focus, Improved my ability to focus on more than one thing at a time, creating a poker face, fooling the market, fooling my bosses, sometimes fooling yourself. I realized I am multitalented.
I am a Piping Layout design engineer by profession & Trading in office is something different as compared to at home. You cannot continuously keep a watch on market. Of course you can put stop limit to your trades, keep price watch alerts on your block folio app. But there is a constant part of my being involved unconsciously fighting and keeping track of my trades. It’s difficult to manage while you have constant project deadlines and the boss is sitting on your head.
But I love this feeling, but I cannot meditate anymore. I start counting my Ripples during meditation. I should have shorted my ripple. Why did I sell my bitcoins for Antshares at 0.000710. Who the hell purchases ANS at such a high rate. And what’s with NEO. The only NEO I remember was fighting with machines in the Matrix. Everyone has a chance to chose in between the red pill and the blue pill. I chose Red pill, because blue pill was too boring for me.
(The reference is taken from matrix “The terms, popularized in science fiction culture, are derived from the 1999 film The Matrix. In the film, the main character, Neo, is offered the choice between a red pill and a blue pill. The red pill would allow him to escape from the Matrix into the real world, but living the "truth of reality" is harsher and more difficult. On the other hand, the blue pill would lead him to stay in the simulated, comfortable world of the Matrix.”- source wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_pill_and_blue_pill)
Ethereum provided me bit of comfort. I had purchased etherium (ethermanium, ethereum) this January for 10 dollars each. Gonna hodl on to it till the end. I have hopes on Golem (I loved the name, so I increased my investement on it.........golem golem golem), Sia has great future, Waves is another coin where my major stakes are.
