My boyfriend got into crypto around December of 2020, and he decided to put a large sum of his money in during the huuuuge run we had earlier in the year. His strategy was to put a few thousand in and watch the charts meticulously every few seconds. I even saw him swing trading and swapping coins, so I decided to learn everything I could about crypto and see if he was getting “scammed.”
I learned a lot. I convinced him to not buy tether, watched him tell our friends to buy doge coin, and saw him put lump sums into BTC and BITCOIN CASH and I tried to hold my breath.
At this point (around April) I thought, hey, I know a little bit now, time to start my portfolio. I did something different than him, and put 25 dollars in each week. He kind of made a little fun of me, said it was “cute” that I was investing and trying, and also said it was kinda pointless to put that little amount of money in.
Then came the “crash” that I was completely prepared for and mentally ready to see, and I just … continued to put in my money weekly. He “no longer wanted to talk crypto as much” and stopped putting in money because all of his was already invested.
I am proud to say that as of today (because I started building with one coin vs. His 10-15) …
MY BITCOIN IS WORTH MORE THAN HIS!
Edit: for you weirdos saying I’m in a toxic relationship …. have a drink
