Your first investment in crypto market

[nicecrypto]

Anyone who comes to the crypto market has a purpose, most of them want to profit from this very potential market. I think the first investment will always be one of the most memorable impressions for every investor or trader & holder. I believe it's really interesting and gives some value to the entire community.

Please share your first investment in the crypto market.

Let me begin this interesting discussion.
I officially entered the crypto market in 2017, not because of the ICO but because of one of the biggest ponzi projects - Bitconnect. I bought BTC but luckily I am not involved in Bitconnect.
But I lost $150 on another Lending project called the Golden Reward. I registered MEW wallet through a fake website and lost all my crypto assets. The bad guy sold my GRX to ETH, 1.3 ETH, and then appropriated it.
However that is not my first investment
The first investment is a CAPP - an ICO. I also invested $150 = 25K CAPP, and after that, my account increased to over 8K USD in a short time when 1 CAPP = $0.48. I never had that huge profit, but greed made me continue to expect that my assets will be 10K or $20K.
All dreams are pink, and reality is gray.

The CAPP token price quickly falls back to $0.0004, which is lower 1000 times. I was quite shocked to lose that huge profit.

Right now the CAPP price is getting back to $0.005, and it looks like I'm about to get my $150 USD back in capital ^^

Let hold when you understand the project. Sell ​​when you are satisfied with your profit criteria.

My first investment was in 2017 too and I believe TenX was my first investment in crypto and made some good bucks from that and some others i also invested in cos it was just as the 2017 bull was about to kick in so 80-90% on my investment went into the bull but missed a good profits too cos I didn't know at the time that the Bears will follow so I was waiting to a recovery

My first investment was the purchase of Bitcoin to buy various altcoins.  I think this investment was done by many people

[Malam90]

My first investment in cryptocurrency was Wings, RDD, Doge in Bittrex before i joined in cryptocurrency forum. I received little profits from investment. Then bought Bitcoin but Alas! i didn't hold Bitcoin many days otherwise now i could be a billionaire.   
BTW, from my first investment, i took practical experience that helped me to find out cryptocurrency world later.

First purchase, 2011. Bought Bitcoin, sold along the way. 2012 was horrible for Bitcoin, big dip

You're a legend men.





I wish you didn't sold all your BTC until 2017.

[KKH84]

So far I haven't bought any appreciable coins, because I never held them back for too long.  I still remember the first BTC coins I got, I got them from various faucets, after they were collected then I sold them.

So you could say, I've never invested in crypto but I'm always looking for free ones.

Sure  Back in 2017, when I first learnt about cryptocurrency and Bought some bitcoin with the assistance of a colleague which we were suppose to use to register for some services which later turned out to be scam, but yeah after that I got closer to bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general.

As I recall, the first coin I invested was Bitcoin, but the value was not that big. For less than $ 100, I bought Bitcoin and soon learned to trade. I sold bitcoins and I traded Altcoins, and it wasn't long before I lost my assets. But it doesn't matter, that's why I made it a valuable experience.

Wow, this must be a memory lane. I also invested with Bitconnect and even promoted the same for around 2 referrals. Though it became one of the most famous scams in the history of cryptocurrency, I made some money with it because I was able to withdraw my money before it went to the ground. Sad story. Now, this is not actually my first investment but this another scam project: TBC or The Billion Coin which eventually just died a natural death. Since then, I got into may bad projects and good ones as well.

I believe many people come to Crypto because of Lending 1.0 projects such as Bitconnect, RegalCoin, HexaCoin, FistCoin... Simply because they last a long time and the ponzi model brings great profits to many early participants.
It's a pity, but for everyone who has sad memories, the crypto market is no exception. Sometimes early falls will help reduce future losses.

I had no idea about cryptocurrency, my arrival in crypto through one of my younger brothers. But my first investment in crypto was probably in drug tokens. I have earned enough money from here. I still have 14K drug tokens. Hopefully I will get a better payment from here.

Me too, I also learnt about crypto currency at 2017, My first crypto is bitcoin..I have invested in bitcoin and started to learn the character of this coin. Bitcoin has high on volatility, But I have learned more, It is really profitable for investment.

Nice one.
You did the right thing to put your first investment in Bitcoin as we know Bitcoin is the most prominent coin in crypto ecosystem. Someone might say; if you want to become rich, just invest in Bitcoin. Of course do not invest when the graph is at the peak. Much better to wait the correction time. I wish you still hold Bitcoin.

wow, it seems that I have known it for a long time but I did not do anything even though my friend told me, when I got interested it was no different from your year, where the end of the year bitcoin increased very sharply or ATH.
but I didn't immediately get to know bitcoin first but instead, altcoins were just growing and not long after that made sure to focus on bitcoin, again not as smooth as what I expected because of the many temptations, compared to holding altcoins. currently in a rising price situation I finally got to see the fact that I couldn't enjoy a sharp increase from bitcoin. but I do not regret it, because it was not lucky I did not get there.

When I entered in cryptocurrencies market then my first investment Coin was only bitcoin and second investment coin Ethereum. Now my favourite investment coins list consist with bitcoin and Ethereum.

Please share your first investment in the crypto market.

my first investment was only in bitcoin. but for the first investment in my ICO project is ethLend in 2017.
the first time i just became a bounty hunter of the project. but when i read in more detail the project objectives i decided to invest $ 528 and get 30,000 token (at an ICO price of $ 0.0176)
after that i also got from the bounty of 60,000 Lend token. so my total token are 90,000.
after that i just waited until early 2018 for the LEND token price to be $ 0.12 and i decided to sell my token from the ICO 30,000 = $ 3,600 i already got a profit of $ 3000.
and the token from the bounty i kept until the LEND token swapped to Aave coin with an appeal of 1:100
so the token bounty proceed from 60,000 to 600 Aave coin.
and i did not think that the LEND token price after swap to Aave contract from $ 0.12 to $ 400.
so that if i sell my coin now i would have made a profit of $ 240,000
this is the first investment that really makes me happy

Let hold when you understand the project. Sell ​​when you are satisfied with your profit criteria.

you are right, because if we don't sell when the price has reached our target and just wait for the price to be higher, it is greed that lead us to losses.

Five years ago, Bitcoin Ethereum was considered the best cryptocurrencies for investment, because other projects were used to generate short-term profits and so far few of them have survived. At this time, we have quite a lot of even new projects that have surpassed all our expectations and deserve to be considered quite profitable assets for investment. But in turn, I would like to note that everyone chooses at their own peril and risk a specific project and the time to go into it. It happens that projects have already reached their maximum value and the duration of growth is questionable.
