In the last cycle I was a trader, swapping between BTC, USDC, and random shitcoins on spot (no leverage) and increased my BTC bag by 70%. I was feeling so genius until the exchange froze my account, it took over three months and a lot of effort to unlock and finally transferred all my sats to my own control. It was the longest three months of my entire life, I felt like a meat hanging in a slaughterhouse. It could be a lot worse. And it was at that time I finally understood what #bitcoin is all about, and why everyone will try to steal my bag in every lawful and unlawful way.
Trading doesn’t worth the risk.
