Its summer 2010 and your best friend tells you about this bitcoin thing

You still made money. Don't be greedy or you'll lose it all.

Increases the scarcity which drives the price up, thanks for losing your passwords losers!

How could I be so dumb not buying btc and eth after.
I was "working for my career" and didn't care about crypto.

that's not the point user. The point is to not miss the golden opportunities that imaginary internet money presents.

I had the oppurtunity to mine it back in 2010 but I didn't feel like learning how to open cmd and run some scripts.. Biggest mistake I've ever done.

Just because it's expensive, doesn't mean it is not a scam

To be frank the money I would have saved by not taking drugs would have made me rich already. Im just an average 4chin degenerate.

$50? I was working and surprised when it hit $10. I had considered putting money into it, but FUD'd myself...

This. You probably would have bought heroin or some other drug with it. You'd be an addict or dead by now if you'd bought Bitcoin back then. Video games saved your life.

It doesn't matter, the only way you'd be rich off buying bitcoin 6-7 years ago would be if you had actually bought AND forgotten about them. It'd be crazy to not sell after 10x.

>It'd be crazy to not sell after 10x.
that's like what 90% of us - sad Jow Forumsposters did

And it was smart. No one knew how much money speculators would put into it at time.
A man should made cold, logical choices based on what he know, not what may happen.

Holding cryptos after they had already overvalued would be like buying the stocks of a almost bankrupt company that produce ping pong balls and hope that in 8 years everyone would ignore traditional sports and spend all they have on ping-pong related products.
Yeah, it may happen, but it's unlikely

Now we have chainlink so we actually won.

This. Early bitcoin users saw that shit go to $30 and crash back to $2. Nobody in their right mind would hold through that shit. Nobody with any sense thought it would be back.

Now that we understand crypto market cycles a little better, Linkies know that selling at any point in the future is absolutely retarded. It will keep pumping for 25 years at least.

WHY DIDNT I BUY A NVIDIA BROS

Bullshiieeeet
Plenty of people knew. Just read bitcointalk back then.
t. Hodler since $5 and through the crash from $30 and every crash since
I still don't understand why some people didn't get it. I think normies just love power structures and institutions

>I still don't understand why some people didn't get it
Because it didn't make sense. It's a internet coin without real value. 100% Speculation

>its summer 2010 and your best friend tells you about this bitcoin thing

Wish I had this friend lol. None of my friends even mentioned crypto ever lol. Two of them are software engineers, one is in finance now.

>I think normies just love power structures and institutions
this is why you need to be holding xrp and btc

>I think normies just love power structures and institutions
It's a instinct. Institutions make us feel safe, and for the few humans that don't care about safety, it's a good source of power

At least Brotherhood was a good sequel
Not worth $60 though

I had a friend tell me to buy in 2012 but he believed in David icke so I thought he was crazy.
Feels bad man

>tfw hamburgers are 100k now too

It could have happened, anything is possible. Some guy spent thousands of bitcoin on a pizza

>turns out no one was posting on Jow Forumsbuttcoin cause everything was mooing and they were only posting when it was dropping or failing

it burns my cousin so much that i got into bitcoin while he thought it was garbage and would die. funny thing is after years and plenty of boom and bust cycles he still has the exact same reactions. price is low = it’s a scam. price rises = he starts to get pissed off. price moons = he goes quiet. rinse and repeat. I know it stings him because i never talk crypto up with anyone unless they bring it up first.

If you had 5000 BTC how would you cash out without the bank blocking your account.

I obviously changed my mind concerning bitcoin, but now it is too late. i thought normies would never touch that cause of hacking and volatility etc and only nerds/ancaps were shilling for magic internet money

I also have found it that most buttcoiners are/were actually invested in crypto but still fud it there for the fun.

Everyday is suffering how much a stupid idiot I was.

I don't know if its love so much as being convinced of their permanence. Most seem to think the only way this can go is a continued consolidation of authority, either in megacorps or megagovernments. It's been relatively easy to ignore the shifty sand we've been standing on since the end of WW2, but we might be in for a rude awakening in the near future.

Unironically buy LINK. It's going to at least $10 by 2020.
