A trader turned $56,000 into $12.25 million in 4 months trading $BTC and alts — then lost it all.

Instead of cashing out, he doubled down with even more leverage. His entire portfolio got liquidated. Now he's sitting on just $21,800 — less than he started with.

This is the harsh reality of overleveraging in crypto. Making money is one thing. Keeping it is another game entirely.

The lesson: Know when to walk away. Greed and leverage are a deadly combo. Protect your wins before the market takes them back.
