The Unlucky Adventures of Lucky: Episode 8 — Riding the Bitcoin Rollercoaster
Just when Lucky thought he had mastered crypto, Bitcoin decided to play games.
You see, it all started on a bright Monday morning. Lucky was scrolling through X (formerly Twitter), sipping garri and groundnut, when he saw a post:
“Bitcoin heading for $120k. This is your last chance! 🚀🚀”
Lucky didn’t want to be left behind. After all, everyone seemed to be getting rich but him. So he did what any beginner would do, he logged into Zabira, swapped some USDT for Bitcoin, and waited to cash out big.
What goes up… must confuse Lucky
At first, things were sweet. The price jumped a little, Lucky smiled and imagined his name on Forbes.
But two days later, Bitcoin dipped.
Then it dipped again.
Then it somersaulted and landed with a thud.
Panic entered his bones.
He opened his app every 5 minutes, refreshing like prayer.
The emotional loop of a first-time trader
Lucky started sweating at night. He wondered:
“Should I sell now and cut my loss? Or should I wait? What if it goes lower? What if it goes back up after I sell?!”
He joined Telegram groups, watched 9 YouTube videos, and even asked his cousin in Canada (who doesn’t even do crypto).
Everyone had different advice. No one gave him peace.
The lesson Lucky never knew he needed
He realized:
- He didn’t set a clear goal before buying.
- He didn’t plan for risk, just picturing his profits.
- He bought because of FOMO, not research.
- He didn’t understand market corrections.
Lucky needed structure, not pressure.
So what should a Beginner Trader do when the Crypto Market is Volatile?
Here’s what Lucky wishes he knew:
1. Always DYOR (Do Your Own Research)
Don’t rely on one tweet. Check charts, read news, learn from platforms like Zabira Blog News.
2. Set a Budget
Only invest what you can afford to lose, not your rent money.
3. Understand Volatility
Crypto is like Lagos weather. It changes fast. Be ready.
4. Use the Right Tools
Apps like Zabira let you track your assets easily, convert them fast, and even cash out to naira without wahala.
5. Be Patient
Long-term thinking beats panic trading any day.
Lucky’s final thoughts (and yours too)
Crypto is a journey. One tweet shouldn’t be your GPS.
So next time Bitcoin decides to try breakdance moves, Lucky will be ready, with knowledge, strategy, and Zabira in his pocket.
Because in crypto, the only thing worse than a dip… is being unprepared for it. Join Zabira Now and win up to 150,000 naira bonus on your first crypto trade.
