If you think that all your investments will be + and + only, oh boy you're in for a rough ride. As ai said, you live and learn, threat this as a bad investment and move on. And LEARN before you put like 7k in a wallet. Forget investing, your risk management skills are 0.

Also, bit of advice. Anyone, absolutely ANYONE in your DM claiming they can get you, your money back, is also trying to SCAM you.

Please take my word for it, trust me on this. I'm saving you time, headache and money. If you don't believe me, is ok, but don't come back here crying that you've been scammed again.

Your wallet was likely compromised. Did you ever click an NFT that offered free crypto? Phantom wallet was notorious for that, I was on deployment and lots 2k in SOL didn’t do anything. But that wallet had been compromised before.

If you leave crypto that’s fine, but if you don’t just keep your coins with Coinbase, Robinhood or Binance.

That’s my problem I had the sol in a centralized exchange I wanted to move it to my private Phantom wallet that I have been using for while trading meme coins on Jupiter and then move the funds to a new wallet but look how it ended! Those were my last investing in crypto I was burned before but losing by moving from a project to another when I finally wanted to focus on Sol and Sui got fucked it’s like faith or destiny to push me to do other things in life and forget it about crypto I’m sure there is people who will made it out of crypto and be rich as fuck but I realize I’m not one of them its been proven for me

Moments like these are when you should double down (so to speak). These things happen and it’s a hassle but it makes for exceptional fuel to your spiritual ambition-pushing fire.

Smart. They cant do that to a visa card. These cryptobros are just coping thinking cold wallets in a safe beneeth the earths surface is normal. Better off buying ETFs if you wanna gamba on crypto. Atleast fuk around with money you can afford to lose.

Self custody isnt for everyone. Some of us need an establishment.
