ETH Theft Sparks Strategy

A story about Ben Levy losing ETH to a crypto scam and learning to accept risk as part of investing.

"I had a few ETH stolen out of my wallet about a year ago and I was crushed. I called you and said 'Dude, it sucks, I just lost a few ETH because I stupidly clicked on a Discord scam.'

You told me 'That's the price of admission - every single person in crypto has had that happen and that's just the name of the game.'

I've definitely been punched a ton in crypto. Every crypto investment I've made, I'm mad that I didn't sell at the right time, or held too long, or bought too late. But that's the nature of volatility. I figure I'm going to get a huge home run because I play this game and learn from my mistakes."
