My uncle told me to put everything in crypto back in 2021
He kept saying it was the future and I was missing out. I threw $500 into some random coin he recommended and watched it triple in a week. Then it crashed hard a month later and I sold at a $200 loss. Has anyone else had family push them into something that went south?
Your uncle wasn't wrong about the future, he was wrong about your timing and choice of coin. The tech behind a lot of crypto is solid, it's just volatile. You bought a random pump and dump instead of something with real use. That's on you for not doing your own research.
