Before becoming a #bitcoin maxi, what was the dumbest shitcoin you bought?
I'll go first, a couple of crypto kitties.

BYTECOIN LOL
ShibaInu 😆
I was already a maxi when I heard some dude talk about it at a bitcoin only meetup. I never even understood what the supposed value proposition of meme coins were supposed to be.
I read the "white paper" for SnG's, but that shit made no sense at all.
Tron
Succumbed to unit bias.
Hot wheels nft
🤣 I had no idea that was a thing. NFT's are such a scam, but hindesight is 20/20.
Titcoin. Turned a nice profit 🤣
think the first one was vechain for me back in 2017 november
I found a pump pattern for shitcoins in 2017 and rode the waves until one spectacular crash to end it all 🤣
😂😂 ah yes
i think most of the folks would've been better off without discovering leverage
I had a real scare with that one. Learned fast to not mess around though. Didn’t lose “as much” as I could have for the time being - until eventually losing everything anyway …
I never used leverage, but I experimented with bitcoin loans on Hodl Hodl using Liquid stablecoins at 40k. It worked out for me when FTX collapsed, but I feel bad for whoever got liquidated.
I don't remember that one. I remember nano being another stupid waste of sats though.
I’ve minded & traded all sorts of shit since 2011… all sorts of degen shit has gone on lol
lisk, later rebranded as nano I think. Or it was the other way around. 🤔
I probably lost the most sats with nano. I didn't know what the hell I was doing back then.
Turtlecoin
I forgot about that one. I never bought it, but heard about it on the Kevin Rose show and tried mining it. I failed.
Ah the Kevin Rose show! Think I listened to the same episode coming to think about it. I bought a little on TradeOgre then converted it back to BTC after a little “profit”. Early days. Tried mining it too with the same result as you 😂 BTC was always first choice though but a part of my journey did include messing about with a few shitcoins.
