My Last 6 Months: Rampant drug abuse, and making thousand off of CryptoCurrencies. * 3
    #24600944 - 09/03/17 03:17 PM (6 years, 6 months ago)

So I figure I'll preface this with a couple points:
1) I've been using CryptoCurrencies since BTCs inception in 2009, and was probably one of the very first people to mine BTC (although I gave up on this shortly after starting)
2) I've spent the last 6 months with a good portion of my income (95%) coming from CryptoCurrencies, whether it be day trading, investing, proof of stake nodes
3) My total portfolio growth to date is 118.76% BTC and the total market cap has retracted by about 20Bil in the last few days so once that has recovered this will probably grow back to 200% where it usually resides.
4) I'm currently living off 100% CryptoCurrency based income.



About 6 months ago I went back to work, and started to have a lot of money in my banking account. At that point I was largely on the outskirts of the CryptoCurrency community, only using BTC to buy drugs, with a small reserve of ETH and BTC that I hold onto. I was never in quite the right place to dive full on into CryptoCurrencies and make a living or any sort of solid income off them other than passive value growth from ETH and BTC. So I  gathered up all the money I had, maxed out all my credit cards (literally never do this. The fact I'm not bankrupt is a god send.) bought an ounce of speed, and stayed up for 3 days trading, reading, and re-familiarizing myself with the era of cryptocurrencies that had erupted in my absence. I won't go into details about how much I started with, but that 3 day period netted me a total value growth of 337%.

So in 3 days I made more trading that I would make working my well paying Linux Sys Admin job for the remainder of the year. Have never traded anything ever in my life, and knowing all the cautionary tales about day trading, the amount of money I made in such a short period of time was highly unusual, and was more than just luck. Day trading is one of the riskiest, challenging, but fruitful ways of making money with any sort of investment. You can literally lose everything in seconds, but could also make insane profit margins.

I've always had a soft spot for cryptocurrencies and have always been "hooked" on them in a sense. But never has anything taken a hold of my life (save for my rampant cocaine addiction) quite the way cryptocurrencies did after those 3 days. Everything else in my life was instantly overshadowed. My job, my friends, parents, girlfriend, and life itself become secondary to CryptoCurrencies. I spent every waking moment of my life delicately balancing a rampant amphetamine, benzo, and cryptocurrency addiction with my real life. However as I'm sure one could imagine this delicate balance didn't last for long.

Within the first month I had already established myself a very, very, very solid investment portfolio, along with a healthy sum of "change" that I could day trade with, lose it all, and have no qualms about it (at one point this sum of "change" totaled 25K). I had learned how to develop smart contracts using Solidity, and began learning HyperLedger. I started reading more and more about technical indicators, and technical analysis of forex charts, and translating that into CryptoCurrencies.

I would say the first two months was nothing but a pink cloud. I could buy whatever I want, do whatever I want, and be who ever I wanted to be simply because I had money (the only time I had anything close to this much money was when I was selling Coke many years ago). I started buying rally nice clothes for myself and my girlfriend, and absolutely spoiling the shit out of my girlfriend. At it's peak I had a roughly 50K/month income just from cryptocurrencies. This was fucking insane, going from making my salary in a year to a month in the time span of 2 fucking months? So being 23, and a hardcore poly drug abuser I'm sure you can guess that I spent all this money in the most responsible of ways right? My drug (ab)use took off like a rocket, I started buying all sorts of unnecessary shit, constant computer upgrades, mining rig upgrades, buying into some new proof of stake coin for more passive income, whatever it was if I saw it and wanted it I bought it.

Before I dated my girlfriend, I've always had a massive hard on for dumb, money loving sluts that I could pump full of my cum and treat like absolute fucking shit. I would never date woman like that, but I would absolutely love fucking them, and cheating on my significant others with woman of that nature. I'm a pretty socially awkward nerd so I've always had troubles approaching woman so I primarily slept with escorts but I noticed something funny. The same kind of woman I lusted for, were starting to approach me! So I started to entertain the idea of cheating on my girlfriend. I would text these woman all night while I was up trading, investing, doing god knows while what while my girlfriend slept less than 5 feet from me. Thankfully I never slept with any of them or did anything more than just talk. After how I cheated on my previous girlfriend I told myself I would never do that again so I'm glad that after all the shit I did I still stuck to that.

After those first two months, my life became very chaotic, erratic, and psychotic much like the mind state I was in from abusing ounces of amphetamine salts, research chemical stimulants, and staying up for days on end. Instead of spending 75% of my time doing CryptoCurrency stuff and the remaining 25% with my girlfriend, and trying to cram in as many hours at my job as I could, I spent all my time doing that. The majority of the time I spent with my girlfriend was fucking because I was horny as shit, or I'd been neglecting her for too long and would take us out for dinner and some time to hang out so I could feel better about myself and pretend like I was a good boyfriend.

Despite all this my game kept improving, I was becoming a better trader, a better investor, and overall smarter person. I had begun to make money from smart contract development and had a 4th income supply. So on paper life was great, and don't get me wrong life was fucking great I had my own personal wolf of wall street. I felt like and was a god. I had started to talk to family and friends about CryptoCurrencies, helping everyone I considered a good friend and family member. Spending countless hours talking about, and helping my friends understand this world. Out of 7 different people I've talked to and taught, only one of them actually branched out and started approaching it from the same angle I was (but from a much healthier mind state). This helped keep my investments in check as I had someone else I could talk to about cryptos on the same level I was dealing with them at. This is still an ongoing relationship as I write this post and has been very prosperous both for myself and my friend.

Life had begun to get fairly routine:
  • Wake up, take speed
  • Fuck my girlfriend
  • Call in sick
  • Start trading
  • Do a fuck ton of speed, benzos, cannabis, nicotine
  • lots of fucking
  • Stay up for 2-3 days
  • more drugs
  • tons of blowjobs
  • reach amphetamine psychosis
  • Crash for 14-20 hours
  • repeat


I also noticed something funny during this time, my mood and it's changing, I was able to directly correlate them to my waning and expanding drug supply, but ironically, the waning and expanding total market cap evaluation. When cryptos were booming I was booming, when they were bust, I was bust. So as one can imagine with the frequency of change in crypto space, my drug use, and this not so stable mood changes, my life began crumbling away about the start of June. I was able to delude myself into not believing that, but towards the end of June I started to give up and was worn out. I stopped caring about my job, my cryptos, everything. I switched to medical leave so I could sort my life out and figure how I wanted to tackle the problem that was now my life. It took awhile to prepare myself both financially, and mentally to "purge" myself of all toxins in my life. I started consolidating my portfolio into more stable investments, stopped trading as much, and as of almost 2 weeks now stopped all drug use except for Cannabis, and largely stopped trading. From going to make a trade every 5-15 minutes, to maybe making a trade or two a day. I quit or rather, got fired from my job which I was frankly happy about and still am although it has and will cause some problems. My relationship with my girlfriend has largely been repaired, but my relationship with my parents is pretty fractured and non-existant at this point.

I've probably left out a lot of details so if anyone has any questions about my last 6 months or my general thoughts on cryptos ask away!



Some side notes:

I currently live of 100% cryptocurrency based income. I had multiple investments in DPoS, and PoS cryptos which provide a nice passive income blanket, as well as a reliable but largely down-sized mining operation. There is a very big downside to this though and that's getting my income into the Fiat system because this is my income and it is in fact taxable, I need to go through proper banking channels to make sure everything is on point for big brother :wink: Which conversely means that most of my financial transactions are limited to business hours which is very fucking annoying when operating on a different financial plane of existence. For example I miscalculated my spending this weekend, and burned through all my fiat cash supply before the weekend was over so for the next 18 hours until my cash out clears I have $0 on paper but lots floating in 1s and 0s.


Security. This is a pretty large, and complex topic and I won't talk a lot about it but in short I have nothing physically stored on anything in my house. Everything has been encrypted, fragmented and stored throughout the ether. So in short even if you tortured me I couldn't give you access :shrug: Security is something that needs to be taken extremely seriously, because one false move and I could lose everything.

Would I do anything different? Nope.

What drugs do I take now? Daily cannabis use, plus my anti depressants. I've completely stopped benzo and stimulant use and will not be returning for the foreseable future.

What coin am I currently mining? Signatum

What hardware do I mine with? Watercooled 1080 Tis and watercooled 1080s. Will be upgrading to full 1080 Ti mining, and after that waiting for the 20xx series or maybe snagging some Titan XP bad boys.

Am I still dating my girlfriend? Thankfully yes, that is something I managed not to totally destroy. If I did I don't think I would've been able to forgive myself and probably would've kept going and still be going at this point.

Last three month graph of what is pretty much my entire networth:

Man, thats some good shit.  I've been thinking about day trading cryptocurrencies, maybe once I have some extra cash to play with. 

So you're mining with graphics cards?  I thought ASICs were the way to go these days, at least in terms of efficiency.

Depends on the Cryptocurrency you're mining. Bitcoin absolutely yes, according to whattomine there are some other currencies that have ASICs for them (SIA has one coming). But most are mineable with GPUs, whether or not it will be better mined using an Nvidia chip or AMD chip depends on the PoW algorithm in use.

Some algorithms are ASIC resistant like cryptonote (Monero). I actually CPU mine XMR with some Xeons I have laying around.

Wow dead.... Thats a pretty crazy story! Sounds like you really lucked out by not losing more than you did... I'm surprised that chick stuck it out too...

Definitely an interesting read, and good on you for laying off the speed. I recall that always being a weakness of yours.

I'm glad it all worked out dude! :thumbup:


Edit: almost forgot.. can I borrow some money? :wink:

:lol:

Hey thats some crazy shit, but i can relate. I had my fair amount of crypto stress, but have overcome. I stuck with a few picks that i put somewhere, where i cant easily take it out from, even when crashing hard like last weekend. Also going to stake them as soon as it will be possible.

Wow glad things are turning around for you! I been gettin into researching and putting a little bit of my paycheck into investing in bitcoin. Also been looking into putting some money into Monero. Mining would be awesome to get into once i have the money for a system to successfully do it.

How usable is monero currently? I, myself have been doing some research with interact to lay out some savings to cryptos. I had read that it say prev used on a specific dnm which was subsequently flipped by the fbi.
Are there other markets utilizing it? I just want to place my funds in a place I see the value. With Bitcoin and esp with ether and now maybe teZos I can see the utility see the value behind them.
Monero was something I was eyeing but disregarded more figuring a decrease in use when the bay was flipped? We need more info in this space. I'd like to hear why some of these other cryptos have any value comparable to the big dogs- again I see the utility and growth (esp with ethereum) potential. Just not familiar enough with all of them and there uses quite yet maybe?

Cheers

Monero is incredibly usable, and from what I can tell is the most secure/anonymous private currency there is. There was a press release from BlockSci not too long ago detailing how they were able to de-anonymize transactions from currencies like Dash, ZEN, ZCL, ZCash, etc... and the only one they couldn't de-anonymize was Monero. Granted the conditions under which they did the testing are very unlikely to occur in reality. It was being used on AlphaBay for quite sometime, but I think that was the only DNM to incorporate XMR.


Tezos is one im really looking forward to because I do on-chain programming as a job and although Ethereum is fun to program on, I really dislike Solidity and Tezos functional smart contracting language is very attractive.

I don't think we've seen Monero's true value yet. I think the criminal underground is slow at changing their currency as they are just starting to move away from BTC (which was able to undergo blockchain analysis years ago) and are exploring other cryptos. Last I heard the favourite for the criminal underground at this point is LTC and Ethereum. However once criminal money starts moving into XMR I think we'll see it's price fucking explode.

Right now im mining XMR at a loss in terms of amount mined per day vs electricity cost, I think with my setup I'm losing about 20 cents a day mining XMR but I'm banking on the long term value growth.

Thanks! That's a solid idea; Everytime my friends talk to me I tell them it doesn't matter if you put $5 into BTC or $5000 putting some into BTC is an extremely smart investment move. Mining is actually a lot of fun I used to do it with the intention of supplementing my income but now I moreso do it as a hobby, and to support and help secure blockchains interested in. Currently that's ZCash (GPUs) and Monero (CPUs). Although I'm looking at scaling up my mining setup in the next 6 months or so to start turning some serious cash.

Mining is something you have to dedicate a lot of resources and time to as you need to make sure you can hit your ROI and everything is running smoothly. My first mining operation was built around

Hi All,

What hardware would you guys recommend for stepping into the crypto bubble? :-)

I have set aside around 2000,- euro's. Can i buy a desktop with that, that will do the trick? And what crypto c should i go for?

I want to daytrade like OP as well. I am a cancer patient and 100% disabled for work at the moment. I come from the network/telecom industry. (CCNA)

My country has good socialist benefits, so getting around is not a problem, spending my time wisely is :smile: I am from Amsterdam btw, Capitol of The Netherlands, nice to meet you all :smile: sorry for my offtopic post!


BTW, OP, in my opinion, ditch the drugs you use that are highly addictive and depression stimulating. In my opinion, amphetamine will get you nowhere but the grave.

Start micro dosing psychedelics, so you can ditch the anti depressants as well, and stick with the cannabis. Thats my advice to you, of course, you can do whatever you want with it :smile:

Should I bother mining Monero?

I have i5 2500k at 4.8ghz it is in 24/7, unfortunatly my gfx card only has 2gb of vram so too old to mine anything (690 gtx).

I figure if it takes a year to mine 1 monero coin it might be worth it given BTC has been what $4000 each lately?

Mining the major cc's has been a losing proposition unless you have really cheap power. BTC is just under 4k again at the moment and will likely rise. It seems the chinese moves have been factored in and the market still likes bitcoin. I have quite a few coins right now and some bch too. I expect the price of btc to rise in the near future and the old high point of 5k will soon be surpassed.

No way btc has been de-anonymized unless you count fools who buy it at an exchange and immediately buy something with it. Its childs play to tumble your own coins making them untraceable.

Its good you are overcoming the drugs and turning things around, tdw.

Hey keyser, I already lost over $100k in the last pullback. I took it quite calmly. I have already recouped part of it and I'm buying more while the price is still reasonable. Its usually the ones who wish they had bought a year ago who are bitter about it today.

No, it's the cocky ones when they lose out and can never recover.

Hi All,

What hardware would you guys recommend for stepping into the crypto bubble? :-)

I have set aside around 2000,- euro's. Can i buy a desktop with that, that will do the trick? And what crypto c should i go for?

I want to daytrade like OP as well. I am a cancer patient and 100% disabled for work at the moment. I come from the network/telecom industry. (CCNA)

My country has good socialist benefits, so getting around is not a problem, spending my time wisely is :smile: I am from Amsterdam btw, Capitol of The Netherlands, nice to meet you all :smile: sorry for my offtopic post!


BTW, OP, in my opinion, ditch the drugs you use that are highly addictive and depression stimulating. In my opinion, amphetamine will get you nowhere but the grave.

Start micro dosing psychedelics, so you can ditch the anti depressants as well, and stick with the cannabis. Thats my advice to you, of course, you can do whatever you want with it :smile: 




I wouldn't recommend getting involved with cryptocurrency mining to start with you'd probablybe better off investing the money.  I would do some research as to a good cryptocurrency to start off investing with but ultimately you should only make that decision after doing your own due diligence.

I stopped the bulk of my drug use , sticking to my prescribed vyvanse and pot. Since then my trading has excelled quite amazingly.

Should I bother mining Monero?

I have i5 2500k at 4.8ghz it is in 24/7, unfortunatly my gfx card only has 2gb of vram so too old to mine anything (690 gtx).

I figure if it takes a year to mine 1 monero coin it might be worth it given BTC has been what $4000 each lately?





Monero is kind of pointless to mine with your GPU as the CPU has roughly the same efficiency mining monero.  I always have a couple threads of my desktop CPU mining, however I switched to XZC (ZCoin) as it was more profitable.
