Tyler Warner (Tyler Did It) convinced himself he was a rock star trader in the bull market but failed to hold on to his gains: NFT Collector.
Tyler Warner, aka Tyler Did It on X, has become one of the top content sources about whats happening in NFTs and crypto. He first dabbled in crypto in 2017, with the NFT mania of 20212022 capturing his imagination and sending his career in a new direction.
Tyler caught the Art Blocks wave, as well as Azukis, Moonbirds and Pudgy Penguins. At the top, his NFT portfolio was worth around 1,000 ETH, but like so many JPEG enthusiasts from this time, he handed back the majority of the paper wealth as NFTs hit a brutal bear market.
I round-tripped it all. I think I ran up to about 1,000 ETH, or about $3 million, at peak in August [2021]. I will admit I fell into a little bit of a rock star complex during that first full cycle, thinking Im the best trader out there, and Im so good at this. It truly was like everyones a genius in the bull market; it was easy to get caught up in a moment, says Tyler.
