Was reading about how Bitcoin first came into existence and people's first experiences with Bitcoin, cryptocurrency, etc on Reddit. I want to know how your guy's first experiences was with Bitcoin, and if you ever had any regrets or wins throughout the years. Also, would be cool to know how people first actually got Bitcoin back nearly a decade ago when it wasn't as easy as buying some from a local Bitcoin ATM near you.
I've known Bitcoin since 2008 through a friend. Her husband is into mining at that time but I am one of those people who ignored its existence and importance so I focused on work and real-life solutions on financial problems. Then another friend of mine got herself into crypto around 2014, but then we're still clueless about its potential, the exchange was around $800 at that time. I can say that I 50% ignored all about it since I don't have $800 for one BTC. After a few months passed, BOOM! BTC went sky high to something I can't really afford so I only bought what my extra money could take. Then it went to its ATH after that last 2017 which I know a lot of people here know about it.
If you invested in BTC since the beginning or probably not later than 2015, you are still in profit even if we considered how much the rate BTC holds now. It was really a missed opportunity for HODLers like me at that time.
