I can't remember date but I was meet with bitcoin when price was $800 to $900. But I had not bother to use it or buy/hodl it. Mostly time I was use perfect money as online payments received or send. You will laugh if you know why I had not use bitcoin because I laugh when I remember my paste thought.
Once I sold perfect money to my local reseller, they were asked my why you don't use btc. Because btc demand is high on my native country although illegal. My answer was, bitcoin is too volatility that's why I am using perfect money

. To be honest that time I had not enough knowledge about bitcoin. However, when I understand the game of bitcoin then it was already $1600 to $1800. And I didn't late anymore, just convert my all fund (virtual fund) into bitcoin. And I wondered, why I had not meet before with bitcoin.
To be honest lot of people's are avoiding bitcoin just due to lack of proper knowledge same like me.
Intention of this post is, we should share knowledge even on real life about bitcoin as much as possible. So you friends/ neighbor will not regret like me.
Even though it is hard to understand most of what you are trying to say I feel you bruh. We all make mistakes, and those mistakes teach us lessons for us to be better once again. Now if you did not encounter such mistakes you wouldn't be here at all, it is destined and you should be grateful that you and I are one of chosen few who might be having good profits later on. You can still call us early adopters, there are more years to come and all of those regrets before should just be forgotten and move on. Buy what you can now, that will make most of the gaps you haven't filled. Even me thought that what if I have been a pioneer investors? Would I be rich by now? I guess not or I guess yes, we clearly don't know the future.
