Goodbye Bitcoin


Goodbye Bitcoin

I did it. I finally hit the “Sell” button on my remaining BTC holdings. Waiting for the lines to be filled, I felt a physical weight hit my stomach.

I spent weeks overthinking this. I told myself all the classic lines to justify exiting the market:

  • Locking in gains is never a mistake
  • The volatility is too much for my stress levels
  • I’ll just buy back in during the next major dip

The moment my wallet balance hit zero, the perspective shifted. I wasn’t safe, I was out. The dip never happened, maybe it will some day but I don’t even want to know about it.

I realize now I did not sell because I need the money, I sold because I let the fear pretend to be a strategy. I have traded my seat on a revolution of tech for a small security that evaporated in two minutes

To the HODLers: Stay strong. You have the discipline that I lacked today.

I have a regret for not keeping even just a few sats, just for the sake of being part of the adventure. But now, it is too late. The train has left the station and I’m not gonna take any train anymore.
