Those who invested in bitcoin way back 2009 had not experienced any bull run before nor have much knowledge about the blockchain technology, yet they took the risk to invest. You and I have witnessed a bull run and heard about the numerous potentials of crypto so why do we still have to feel reluctant to invest in bitcoin. Let's be optimistic about our digital assets because its all we have.
Yes, those who invest earlier, around 2009, may still have little experience and knowledge at that time but the price of bitcoin at that time was still relatively cheap. And for us, especially for those who are new to crypto, to start investing in bitcoin will certainly require greater capital and that is a factor that might burden them. Cheaper alts at the moment can be picked as an alternative instead of investing in bitcoin.
