One can't ignore the price of BTC right now, but that leave a sad thought for many people who have been trading BTC over the past few years. So here is the question, how do you deal with the regret of not holding on?
Here is my little story:
Today I woke up and looked at the price. I thought I was dreaming, after taking a shower I knew I was not dreaming as the price shot up an extra R1000 (about $75). I then went into my luno account and had a look at all the previous transfers and sales I had done. The sad part was that I was selling BTC at about R9000 ( about $700) per BTC and I had transacted 12 BTC all together and gotten just over R100 000 for it.
If I never took that through my account I could of had over R1 000 000, it is enough of a difference to want to shoot yourself right? So now where do I find peace with myself for what has happened.
Some people say that you never knew therefore you should not worry or have regrets about it. But this simply is not enough to get rid of the feeling of regret.
After much thought I came to ask myself what was that money spent one? This is where I found my peace, it was a great need at that time to use that money and it was not wasted on anything unimportant. Knowing that the money was used wisely has given me peace.
Hope that everyone will find a way to deal with this kind of regret.
