    My cringey techbro dad decided to send me a little bit of bitcoin for Christmas over cashapp. Since I didn't buy it, I didn't need it, and I was very drunk, in my infinite wisdom, I left it in my wallet to see If i could make a few extra bucks. That night it went down $8. Now I'm down $80. I deserve it tbh.

      If it's any consolation I was friends with a pretty decent guy in high-school that bought Bitcoin when it was like $20. He almost immediately became an insufferable crypto fash that last time I checked spends most of his time complaining about how he can't find a trad wife who agrees with him that feminism is a disease.

        Man, I feel lucky that the only Bitcoin guy I know saw it as a scam, but early enough into it that he could still make money, made a couple 10s of thousands, got out, and then just bought a house that he JUST lives in, doesn't rent out.

      Just hold on to it, it'll go back to where it was and then you should sell it. This is pretty much a regular cycle of incredible losses and growth, mostly to the benefit of the largest stakeholders.
