Since I started investing in cryptocurrencies, my investing choices have changed.

Initially, I was buying Bitcoin and then altcoins.

I believed all the hype Justin Sun was talking about with Tron (TRX). I feel for his lies but honestly thought this cryptocurrency had potential.

In addition to holding Tron, I traded some Ethereum (ETH) for altcoins. I wasn’t a believer in Ethereum at the time. But that will eventually change as you’ll see.

After my first bull run, I lost some money in a Bitcoin mining scam.

Then I lost a little more money (crypto) when an exchange went off the grid as I bought a few other altcoins.

Fortunately, I received a few free altcoins from Coinbase by taking the quizzes they offered. The quizzes were easy, and if you made a mistake, you could go back and answer the question again.

Eventually, I ended up selling these altcoins, but they didn’t make up for the money I lost in other crypto deals.
