A couple of weeks back i met a gentleman in an airplane and he is from US and he was checking everything about bitcoin and he was reading the news and he was sitting beside me,so i started the conversation and he said he made more than a couple of million dollars in the past one year and he started trading mid 2017,he even showed me his bittrex account holding around a million dollars worth of bitcoin and since the market started sliding it was below the million dollar mark. Many people made a good living with the help of crypto currency,you did not do any mistake because you never invested in it,so you never gain or lose from it .
