well, unfortunately i can relate. esp w the gambling addiction aspect. my story is similar, yet much more wild & out of control. ended up losing 2.5mil usd of my own money, and 2.5mil of friends and family's money. then, i paid back the f&f and made them whole, so i lost 5mil in total. the story is pretty crazy, but im starting a newco from scratch in RL.. no more chasing internet money for me. im just thankful my wife is supportive and stayed w me despite being completely unaware of the depths of the losses, and that the house and cars were safe.
It takes a lot of strength to remove yourself from an environment that no longer works for you, I'm happy for you. Many good wishes for a peaceful life.
Incredible post, thank you so much for writing it and sharing your story. I don't know if you'll see these comments but if you do, know that you've meaningfully and positively impacted the lives of people
Sheesh. Thank you so much for sharing your story. So important for others to see this as a lot of people will no doubt be going through similar which they won’t consider gambling because they’re ‘investing’ their money.
Good luck for the future! Excited for you to be moving onto other things!
I feel like this whole space is 80% gambling, 10% art, and 10% technology. How big would it be if there wasn't hundreds of millions of dollars being tossed around?
Happy for you my guy. We will miss you. I mean, we won’t. So don’t come back 🥲
Hope the best for you and your wife. Onwards 🫡
Thank you, Thrown. You're good people.

Thank you for sharing. Crypto is the fentanyl of "investing."

We will welcome you back in 5 months to watch you gamble it all away again.
You might be right, but your comment gives me even more motivation to stay sober.
