How long have you been in crypto? A year? Two? Five? If it’s too long, you’ll recognise some of these warning signs.
- Checking the price of bitcoin is the first thing you do in the morning. Not grab a coffee. Not say ‘Good morning’ to your beloved. Not feed the cat. It’s grab your phone while you’re still half asleep and see which way BTC went in the night.
- Your thumb has RSI, from swiping down to refresh Blockfolio so many times.
- That’s Repetitive Strain Injury, by the way. If you read RSI and assumed it meant Relative Strength Index, you’re probably obsessed with chart indicators.
- You can’t look at a city skyline without seeing volume bars. You can’t look at a mountain range without seeing price spikes.
- Somehow, you got really good at mental math. You can do complicated sums in your head – but only if they involve exchange rates for bitcoin and altcoins.
- You feel an overwhelming urge to draw lines on things as a means of predicting the future. If you were in hospital, you’d probably be drawing support and resistance levels on your heart-rate monitor to figure out if you’ll survive.
- Your F5 key is blank. There’s a dip where it’s worn away from refreshing CoinMarketCap.
- You only have online friends. You stopped seeing half your real-world friends when they laughed at you for buying crypto. The other half stopped seeing you when it turned out you were right.
- You haven’t had 8 hours sleep since… well, since crypto.
- You’re still kicking yourself for buying that beer/mining rig/sunglasses for BTC back in 2015. It seemed so cool and smart at the time. Now it’s the most expensive thing you ever bought.
