Don’t just show off your profit screenshots! Show us your most “absurd” trade

If you could go back to your first day on Gate, would you still make your first-ever trade?
This question is actually pretty interesting.
Because looking back, many people probably can’t help but laugh at their first trade.
Why did you buy?
Maybe a friend recommended it.
Maybe you saw the price keep rising.
Maybe you thought the coin had a particularly cool name.
Or maybe simply because—“everyone was buying it.”
As for the project’s fundamentals, tokenomics, liquidity, and market risks?
Back then, you might not even have known what those terms meant.
Yet this seemingly “unprofessional” trade became the starting point for many people’s real entry into the crypto world.
After that, we began to learn.
The first time we experienced a massive surge, we learned what FOMO meant; the first time we experienced a crash, we learned what panic meant; the first time we sold too early, we learned what regret meant; and after successfully buying the bottom for the first time, we began to wonder whether we were just unusually gifted.
Then the market used its next move to tell you:
You’re overthinking it.
That’s what makes trading so interesting.
It won’t reward you with another profitable trade just because you made money once; nor will it guarantee that you learn your lesson the next time just because you lost once.
The people who truly stick around are often not those who have never made mistakes, but those who start seriously reviewing their trades after making mistakes.
So for this Gate Square topic, I think it’s especially suitable for everyone to share their own “trading youth.”
What year did you join Gate?
What was your first trade?
How excited were you when you made your first profit?
And have there been any trades that, looking back now, make you want to say just one thing:
“Who on earth gave me the courage to do that?”
Feel free to write down your story.
Don’t just show off how much you made—feel free to share those laughably disastrous trades too.
Because every veteran trader has their own shining moments.
Of course, everyone also has a few trades—the kind they’d better never let their future selves discover.
