Not your fault, I expected the prices to increase by more than 40k mid year but Elon bought 1.5 billion worth of bitcoin and here we are, in a hindsight you could have hodl but there is no point in regretting it too much, you didn't know that the prices will go up real fast and you are already earning in DeFi, we always magnify our failures when there is a lot of things that we achieved and we don't appreciate them.

Your mistake was entering a very risky and shady investment with all the bitcoin you had. You could have just tested the waters using a smaller amount such as 0.1 instead of 1 bitcoin.

Your other mistake is that when you saw the useless token was dumping and bitcoin was rising you still didn't do anything about it for over a month. The correct move would have been to cut your losses early, dumped that token and came back to bitcoin again.

Your other mistake is "investing" in shitcoins instead of trading them. Basically any method that involves you locking some money in an altcoin for any long period of time (yield farming, staking, or any other buzzword the shitcoins use) is a terrible idea. Altcoins are only good for short term trading.

You did not imagine that with the inflation of DeFi projects and of total supply, circulating supply for each DeFi project, price of token will be damaged dramatically. It is the fact and you can not avoid it.

You entered with high price, and get loss now. I don't know the % or times of loss you have currently with DeFi but if it is in % (less than 50%) you can think of exit when they bounce back. If the loss is in times, sure you have only one choice, hold.

Holding them can cause you more loss if current loss is < 50%. More tokens in circulating supply, more loss for you because more sellers will dump their tokens.

I believe that experience matters here mate , Value your experience and don't feel that much because Bitcoin will climb up more and more so there is never too late , Just think that you have spare some time in market.
and also you should be thankful that you still have your funds and not totally Gone.
we commit mistakes specially in this market so yeah check it back and enter bitcoin , as 50,000 is on the way now.

I AM HODLING

After you've done about your mistakes by convert your Bitcoin to DEFI token, do you still earn profit? I hope you still get some profit instead of loss.

Well... I believe many peoples are doing similar mistake like yours, they sell too quick or convert to stable coin before the price at the peak. But well, we can't know when the market will reach the ATH and when the market will crash. So I think you don't need to regret from your mistake, take it as a lesson.

At least you got an experience of how things changes quickly on the market. Next time you will be more wise and invest only a part of your savings or will be more not receptive to selling and buying other new altcoins.

You should not worry much about missing opportunity of holding and increasing the cost of your portfolio. Because could have easily sold your Bitcoin at the price of $47k, when in next few days it would jump to $50-60k.

I don't think there is anything wrong, man, trying new experiences is normal and you want to know how much you earn from farms, but at the same time bitcoin has risen sharply so it makes you feel like someone who has a big mistake in choosing one action that causes big losses
from here you can find out what is the best right? HOLD with existing coins is the most important thing

you are not the only one with this regret.
every year when there is a new altcoin related hype a lot of newcomers fall for that hype and end up losing a lot of money after a while. your losses took place in a much smaller timeframe but it usually is longer. then they eventually give up bag holding altcoins and make a complete migration back to bitcoin.
this is why we always see massive altcoin dumps whenever bitcoin price rises.

Don't feel bad. I have done a lot worse.
These days I HODL some BTC regardless of price and have a fund for trading on which I lose about as equally as I gain.
