Just have a few questions for those who bought/mined BTC early in the days when things weren't this crowded.
1. How long did it take for a transaction to be confirmed?
2. What were the other issues experienced apart from Hardware complications and energy requirements?
Transactions were more faster and got confirmed within minutes as there was no congestion in the network.
Another big issue was that Chinese dominated the bitcoin market and they manipulated the price easily as they wished.We all would keenly watch China's bitcoin market before taking any decisions of buying and selling bitcoins.They had such a huge influence over the bitcoin market.
