Today is the mindrust day. One year ago, on that evil day, mindrust panic sold all his 10BTC stash for $4000 - the average price he has bought his stash. He had twice that sum in fiat, but instead of buying at these incredibly cheap prices, he decided to buy USD, monero and other shitcoins. His ghost reportedly appears still on bitcointalk topics arguing that his decision was right. To him and others fallen comrades by the poison of Peter Schiff's kinda FUD, a minute of silence.

Happy mindrust day brethren! Hodl strong! Cool

I disagree with this way of thinking. All of us have to make our own financial decisions. Sure, his move was stupid but leave the poor guy alone. Everyone has the right to move on.

Yup, can relate to this. Once, in the beginning of my BTC journey, I was overtaken by 'the fear' depicted by price, sold it all at a low and felt relieved not to endure the uncertainty any longer and I decided then never to return. Thankfully after my emotional self had calmed, I bought back with everything at a loss and spent the next year re-accumulating that loss by buying, not trading.
Rarely in my life have I witnessed such fear and flight to safety. It was truly a invaluable learning experience which forged a much stronger HODL. I believe all bitcoiners pass though some personal version of this, especially early adopters. There is no shame for mindrust only a small missed opportunity. May he make his peace and feel welcomed to re-join the ranks.
