Please forgive my cynicism.
I was offered bitcoins in I think 2010 when they were 50p each.
I was tempted to buy £200 worth but had been just lost £200 to a ponzi money scheme so decided against it!
I have seem recent reports saying they are now worth £2,500
Are these the same Bitcoins?
So would I be able to actually sell for cash or money in the bank?
Sorry to ask, but I see lots of people saying they are millionaires but don't think I have seen anyone with the actual money banked.
I mean, my 400 bitcoins would now be worth £1,000,000 and I could actually sell them for £1Million less commissions?
You gotta see I'm sceptical.
Please tell me I haven't made the biggest mistake of my life?
Once a coin is made, it will always remain that coin. So the Bitcoins from 2010 are the same coins as the Bitcoins today. Only thing that has changed is the fact that more coins have been mined into existence, and some have been seized by governments.
So yeah, you messed up big time. But who cares, there is literally nothing at all you can do about that past moment. NOTHING. So why tear yourself up about.
Get yourself some alt coins that are dirt cheap today and in 5 years come back and read this silly post.
