Your homie hits you up all hyped about some altcoin alpha, swearing it's about to moon. You trust the call, ape in with decent size, feeling pretty good about the entry. Then you watch the chart... and it just bleeds. Red candle after red candle. No bounce, no recovery, just straight downward pressure. That's when you realize you might've just become exit liquidity for someone's bag dump. The pain hits different when the recommendation comes from someone you actually know. Can't even be mad though, we've all been on both sides of this trade at some point. Just another day in crypto markets where timing is everything and nobody really knows what's coming next.
