My Sad Experience
Not to bore you with many stories, I want to share my hard-way learning experience:
While in my beginning as a crypto trader, I had only one person who advised me on how I could go about trading - this was my elder brother. Though he's a skillful trader to say yet he didn't show his proficiency in this case. I had some amount of money I had been saving for months and I wished to invest the money in #crypto. I was interested in investing because that period was during the bull market and many colleagues of mine made a lot of profits. So, it got my attention and I had to give all my savings to my brother to help me invest.
My brother began to advise me as a crypto adviser, meanwhile, I knew him as a crypto trader. He told me I could either gain or lose, and I accepted the deal. He went further to recommend a coin (shitty coin) that would earn me a speedy profit. Out of enthusiasm and impatience, I asked him to go ahead and invest.
Ladies and gentlemen, as we speak, I didn't gain more money, rather, the little saving I gave was gone.
Without diligence, I lost my hard-earned savings; instead of checking the fundamentals of the shitty coin, I ended up investing.
This is an experience I don't wish even my enemy to experience because the situation almost broke me down.
Conclusion
As a trader, you need to understand the fundamentals of each coin before investing in the coin. Instead of following what people say, do your analysis, Is it worth the risk? When answers come, then you know how to manage the risk. Meanwhile, as the lesson well learned, I intentionally did my analysis and began my investment in #leo token which I’ve currently staked over 1000 LEOs. I’m investing in it because of the fundamentals and it solves real-life problems on #web3. #leo token is a well-known second-layered token of #hive – which means #hive is a worthwhile token in a cryptoverse. As it stands I am a beneficiary of #hive and I have no regret being part of the team.

It's so sad you had to learn the hard way but I'm more happy you've been able to go through that tough time and learn from it.
Investing is something that needs us to think very well and also not to be so greedy when venturing into it so we don't end up investing more than we can loss.
Yay! 🤗
