I was born in 2004. A few days ago, I happened to know about bitcoin. In fact, the concept of cryptocurrency existed even before bitcoin came out. But now bitcoin has become the king of cryptocurrency. Which means investing in cryptocurrency is no longer an early investor. Now I can't buy even 0.1 bitcoins for $100, but in the past someone bought a few hundred bitcoins for $100. This makes me very hopeless. In the past, when bitcoin was $1,100x means a hundred dollars for bitcoin, but it's hard to imagine a 100x from current price. it's very depressing because I think it's too late to invest in a great invention that comes out maybe once in a thousand years.
OP, this is a discouraging statement, you don't have to think that way, bitcoin investment is a continues process so no one is a late comer in the business, the analysis you made if you had money then would you have buy bitcoin, may be you would have been discouraged too as you are now, the encouragement I have for you is that, if you think that you are ready to invest in bitcoin do it now, don't see the present price as a setback, just embrace the opportunity you never can tell you might be one of those who may benefit in the future like those people who invested earlier, your time is now, make it count don't let this opportunity be a waste.
