โJesus they drained my wallet ๐ญโย ย
that was me on Monday night after losing $1,152.ย ย
everything gone.ย ย
and the worst part?ย ย
I knew better.ย ย
Saturday 2nd March, I got paid $1,152 for a content gig.ย ย
normally, once I get paid, I move the funds immediately.ย ย
but this time, I got overwhelmed.ย ย
we were preparing for the first episode of our Web3 Success Stories livestream, and I also had a clinical presentation at the hospital on Monday.ย ย
then I made an even dumber mistake.ย ย
I posted the win publiclyโฆ while showing the wallet address holding the funds.ย ย
I kept saying:ย ย
โIโll move it later.โย ย
that was a very stup*d decision.ย ย
Monday evening, I got back home, opened my wallet to budgetโฆย ย
boomโฆ drained.ย ย
Iโm not even going to lie to you, I felt sick.ย ย
for 2 days I couldnโt eat properly, think straight, or focus without remembering that money was gone.ย ย
because I already had plans for it.ย ย
and what hurts the most is knowing this could have been avoided.ย ย
so if youโre reading this, please learn from my stup*dity:ย ย
โ donโt leave large funds sitting in hot walletsย ย
โ donโt post wallet addresses holding moneyย ย
โ move funds immediately after paymentย ย
โ stop thinking โit canโt happen to meโย ย
because one small moment of carelessness in crypto can cost you months of hard work.ย ย
I learned that the hard way
