Do you think,new investor or everyone know it?I Think many people don't know about bitcoin journey. Because many investor and many people just think about bitcoin price.
When bitcoin emerged, it grabbed the attention of finance and tech industries. For while, people didnt seem to care,Untill it started to cost $17500+ apace back in 2017.This was perhaps the peak of the hype surrounding crypto-currencies, and suddenly people wanted to be on the trend.
Yeah, it did grab the attention to some hardcore fans only, not to wall streets or big investors.
And yes, some of them although bought bitcoin early, they sell it because they think it's a failed experience by Satoshi himself, so they sell and majority of them regretted their decision. We've seen a lot of social media posts about it, saying that they sold x amount in 2011 and have like x amount of bitcoin that time.
2017 was the year when everyone wanted to take a piece of it and obviously government and other regulatory bodies try to control, but so far no one is successful.
