I knew about Bitcoin since 2011 and started getting really involved in late 2013.

I was convinced that I was a late adopter. Even though the mood in the forums was mostly optimistic in 2014, I felt sad knowing that I knew about Bitcoin back when it was in the single digits and didn't act on it.

I forgot about Bitcoin in 2015 as college studies got in the way. But those coins... I still kept them. I also had quite a few in alts too which I never sold.

Now I'm selling 2/3rds of my entire stash and will be buying a house (fully paid, no mortgage) thanks to Bitcoin.

And of course, I will be putting the money that would otherwise go into rent payments back into Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.

Because Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are the future of money. It is truly a technology that will span generations.

Thank you Bitcoin.
