I’ve got a confession: I lost $100K+ just by not selling my airdrops.
As some of you know, I started my crypto journey by farming airdrops.
Between ‘22 and ‘24, I built most of my folio by hitting the most obvious targets: Arbitrum, Aptos, Starknet, etc.
When I finally started feeling confident...
I stopped taking profits.
Why? It's sooo dumb. You’re gonna laugh:
I lived in this weird mindset where missing out on an extra $10–20K felt worse than losing $10–20K by holding.
I felt some weird loyalty toward the projects I farmed. (Yeah, that’s the most retarded one.)
End result? I’m down 80%+ on most of them.
These days I see people far wealthier than me aggressively taking profits (even small ones relative to their portfolios) and I finally get it.
Being rationally greedy is a skill.
The sooner you develop it, the easier this game gets.
Don’t repeat my mistakes.
