Trader Confession #21: When Bitcoin Hits a New All-Time High… and My Bags Just Sit There Like a Dead Fish 🐟💀
So there I was… BTC flying past $110k like a rocket. Everyone on Twitter/X was screaming: “NEW ATH!!! 🚀 We’re so back!!!”
Meanwhile, me and my WCT bag: 👉 🧍♂️ Just… standing there. Watching. Silently. Painfully.
I refreshed the chart. BTC: +8% SOL: +12% DOGE: +25% (of course) WCT: –1.2% Like… hello?? Bro, even PEPE’s cousin’s cousin is pumping, but you’re just… bleeding?? 🩸
I whispered to my portfolio:
“We ride together…” WCT: “…We dip together.” 😭
I tried everything: • Closed and reopened CoinMarketCap • Switched from WiFi to 5G • Even flipped the phone upside down — hoping red candles turn green…
Nothing worked.
At this point I feel like I’m in a toxic relationship: BTC is the handsome ex who’s glowing up and breaking records… And I’m here still waiting for one green candle from WCT like it’s a text back.
Worst part? That one friend who bought PEPE for fun just texted:
“Dude I’m up 4x. How’s your WCT?” Me: “It’s building… character.”
I’m not mad. I’m just tired. Humbled. And slightly broke.
Trader Confession #20: So tired of holding coins that just keep finding new bottoms… 😞
“Anyone else feel like this…? Every time I think my coin has bottomed out, it somehow finds a new, lower bottom the next day…”
When I first started, everyone said: “Buy the dip, hold for the moon.” So I jumped in. Bought at $1.20 — felt smart. Dropped to $0.90 — told myself, “Great entry, buying more.” Down to $0.70 — “Once-in-a-lifetime bargain!” Then $0.50 — “Even whales are accumulating, stay strong.” Now… $0.38 🫠
Opening the charts every morning feels like opening an exam result you know you failed. 😩
Friends ask: “What do you do for a living?” I just smile and say: “I hold bags for others to dump.” 🤣
Honestly, every time I see another red candle, my heart skips a beat. The chart looks more like a water slide at this point — the more I stare, the lower it goes.
I’m so done, guys. Anyone else here stuck in “eternal bottom finding” mode? Please share your pain — I’m one more dip away from giving up. 😢 #cryptol0l $WCT
🤫 Trader Confession #19: Why Do I Always Wanna Short When It Pumps?
Dear crypto gods, I have a problem.
Every time a chart turns green and candles go brrrr… My brain goes:
“It’s too high. Can’t go higher. Time to short.” I am the resistance. I am the market top.
And then… it pumps another 15%. Liquidation sound: 💥 Wallet: R.I.P. Ego: shattered. And I do it all again next week.
⸻
🧠 Why am I like this? • I missed the entry. Now I’m bitter and want revenge. • I can’t stand seeing others win. “If I didn’t win, no one should.” • I short to feel special. Like I know something the peasants don’t. • That one time I shorted the top… the dopamine rush changed me forever.
⸻
🤡 The logic of my brain: • “It’s up 200% already — surely it must crash now.” • “Green = scam.” • “Smart money exits here. (I am smart money.)” • Spoiler: I’m not.
⸻
🛑 What I should actually do:
✅ Wait for real reversal signs (not just vibes) ✅ Respect the trend — don’t fight green candles with emotions ✅ Accept that I missed the move. Move on. ✅ Go outside. Touch some grass.
⸻
🔚 Final words:
Shorting a strong uptrend without a plan isn’t trading. It’s just emotional damage with leverage.
Signed, A reformed degenerate who will probably do it again tomorrow. #WriteToEarnWCT $WCT
So I bought WCT at $0.40. Sold at $0.75 (big win!). Waited for the dip… WCT dipped to $0.59. But I got greedy. “What if it goes to $0.50? I’ll buy more!”
It didn’t. It went back to $0.70 without me.
⸻
Meanwhile, my friend who said:
“I’ll just hold and forget it” …is now up +75% No stress. No regrets. No missed entries.
⸻
What I learned:
| Timing the market | Sounds smart, feels clever | Holding patiently | Looks boring… but beats 90% of traders
⸻
Final takeaway?
“Sometimes the smartest trade is just not trading at all.”
⸻
Tag a friend who always sells too early. Or too late. Or both. 😅
😂 Trader Confession #17: I Keep Waiting for Altseason Like It’s My Ex Coming Back
BTC: “I’m pumping!” 🚀 Me: “Cool… now the altseason begins, right?”
1 day later…
BTC: “Still me, still pumping.” My altcoins: -7%, -9%, -12% 💀
⸻
🙃 I swear I’ve been preparing for altseason since 2021. • I’ve researched narratives • I’ve staked, airdropped, earned, journaled • I even bought WCT early, feeling like a Web3 genius
But here I am… again… watching my altcoin portfolio go sideways while BTC laughs in my face.
⸻
🧠 What the pros say:
“Altseason happens after BTC pumps hard and then chills.” Me: “Okay cool.” BTC: never chills Altcoins: never pump
⸻
🚨 But I still believe…
“Altseason is real. It’s just… shy. And fashionably late.” 💅
⸻
So I’m still here. Still holding. Still waiting. Like someone who booked tickets to a party that hasn’t started in 3 years.
⸻
If you’re waiting too, drop a 🧘♂️ below. Let’s meditate together… until altseason arrives. $WCT #CryptoLOL
You know that feeling when you’re waiting for your coin to pump… …and it just keeps moving sideways?
Welcome to my life with WCT.
⸻
• Day 1: “It’s consolidating. Strong base being built.” 📈 • Day 10: “Healthy. Patience pays.” 🧘 • Day 30: “Sideways is good, right? Right??” 😬 • Day 60: “Maybe I am the sideways now.” 🫠
⸻
Meanwhile: • Meme coins: 🚀 x10 overnight • Scam tokens: 🚀 x50 in 2 days • WCT: ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
The chart looks like it flatlined. I started wondering if I should call a doctor.
⸻
But then I remember: • Good things take time. • Real projects don’t move on tweets. • WalletConnect is actually building, not just posting memes.
Real foundations grow slowly. And sometimes, moving sideways is way better than… freefalling.
⸻
“Sideways isn’t failure. It’s a loaded spring… waiting for the right moment.” 🌀
⸻
💬 Still riding the sideways rollercoaster with WCT?
Drop a 🚶♂️ if you’re walking with me through this sideways journey.
One day we walk. Next day… we run. #cryptoL0L $BTC $WCT
“Don’t marry your bags.” “Never fall in love with a token.”
And yet… Here I am. Still holding WCT. Still believing. Still refreshing the chart like it’s a weather app for pain.
⸻
Price?
Down from the peak. Faded from the hype. Sometimes redder than my bank account.
But conviction?
Stronger than ever.
⸻
Because I’ve seen what WCT is really about: • It powers real infrastructure — not vaporware. • It fuels WalletConnect, the bridge millions use daily. • It’s not just a token. It’s a backbone.
While others chase meme pumps, I’m here staking, reading governance docs (yes, really), and watching Web3 grow — one wallet connection at a time.
⸻
“It’s easy to hold during green candles. But conviction shows when everything turns red.”
⸻
💬 Are you still holding WCT too?
Drop a 💎 if you’re here for the long haul. We might not be rich (yet), but at least we’ve got utility, community, and… emotional scars. And maybe — just maybe — a bull run coming. #cryptoL0L $WCT
#10: Trading When Trump and Powell Are in a Situationship
You think trading Bitcoin is hard? Try trading the U.S. dollar when Donald Trump and Jerome Powell are fighting for custody of the economy.
⸻
🧠 A quick lesson for those who slept through economics class: • The Federal Reserve (Fed) is supposed to be independent. • Meaning: no President, no Congress, no angry tweets should influence it. • Its job is to control inflation and keep the financial system stable.
Key word: supposed to.
⸻
🏛️ Now enter Trump: • Trump, when President, regularly bashed Powell on Twitter. • He called Powell “clueless” and “an enemy of the people.” • At one point, Trump openly suggested he could fire Powell. (Spoiler: legally very complicated.)
Meanwhile, Powell just kept raising rates because… you know, inflation doesn’t care about approval ratings.
⸻
📈 How it affects traders like us: • Trump tweets → Markets panic. • Powell speaks → Markets panic harder. • Meanwhile, Bitcoin pretends to be a safe haven… until it isn’t.
If you ever wondered why the market looks like a heart monitor during 2018–2020 — blame that situationship.
⸻
“Fed independence” means no President should tell them what to do. “Market independence” means no trader should expect to understand it.”
⸻
🔥 Useful tip: • Watch Fed signals, not political noise. • Presidents may shout. • But Powell watches data. (At least most of the time.)
⸻
💬 Which one do you trust more with your portfolio: • A central banker with spreadsheets? • Or a President with Twitter fingers?
Last month, I bought a meme coin. It rugged. Then I tried to time the market. I missed the bottom. Twice. I opened a long. Liquidated. I staked for 120 days. Got $7.
But guess what?
I’m still here. Still clicking “Buy.” Still checking charts at 2 AM. Still telling myself:
“Next time… I’ll be smarter.”
And maybe I will. Because every L teaches me something: • Don’t FOMO. • Don’t YOLO. • Always take profits. • Never trust coins named after animals, fruits, or billionaires.
⸻
“In crypto, the dips hurt… But the comebacks hit harder.”
⸻
Still holding through the chaos?
Drop a 💪 if you’re still here. Tag someone who’s down bad — but never out. Let’s rise, one candle at a time. 🔥
When I first got into crypto, I thought: “Sleep is for the weak. Real traders watch the charts 24/7!”
And so I became… a crypto owl.
1 AM: “BTC’s pumping, we’re going to the moon!” 2 AM: “Hmm… red candle? Just a dip.” 3 AM: “Still dipping…” 4 AM: “Where’s my order?! Oh… liquidation.”
Next morning at work, eyes like a panda, brain running on fumes. Coworker: “Rough night?” Me: “Yeah… had to say goodbye to my funds.”
Now I know: Sleeping early won’t make you rich, but at least you won’t die a broke zombie.
