I bought Bitcoin when it was trading below $8,000.
I held it for more than 6 years.

Then I made one decision that cost me a large part of my gains.
Not because I sold.
Because I used my Bitcoin as collateral to borrow more money.

Back in 2021, leverage looked like an easy shortcut.
Bitcoin kept climbing higher.
Money was cheap.
Everyone believed the rally would never end.
Then the market changed.

Bitcoin dropped more than 65% from the top.
The loan didn't care how long I had been holding.
The liquidation didn't care how strong my belief was.
Years of patience disappeared in just a few months.
In 2024, I started building again.

This time with one simple rule:
Never put your long-term investments at risk for short-term excitement.
Most people believe wealth comes from finding the perfect coin.

The truth is different.
Real wealth comes from staying in the game long enough for time and compounding to work for you.
Bitcoin rewards patience.
It rewards discipline.

But it can be unforgiving to those who rely too much on leverage.
