Raise a glass for those of us who:
Participated in the early days of spreading information to those who didn't understand Bitcoin
Donated some crypto to someone who you wanted to share your excitement with during the nascent years
Helped advise on fascinating projects in the early days when it was all relatively new for most people
Invested in Bitcoin start-ups while helping to further expand the eco-system
Bought something for you or gifted something to someone using bitcoin
Just fucking held your bitcoin with a massive jawline
Sold your bitcoin early and have some regrets
Had Bitcoin change your and the lives of those around you
For those of us who have seen the rise of this fun experiment turn into an actual asset class and the backbone of some really cool things, cheers to what is hopefully the next bull run.
See you in 4 years
It's undoubtedly been one hell of a ride. I remember the days when Bitcoin was just becoming popular. I used to claim small amounts of satoshis from faucets back in the day because I was interested in it. Its price was very low but still higher than any currency in the world, which fascinated me. I might not have been a member of this forum back then, but I was around when Bitcoin was priced less than $1,000. Unfortunately, I wasn't well-off back then and couldn't buy any, so I aimed to earn some, which I eventually did.
The regret of selling my Bitcoin early will always remain with me, like most of us because we are still here, and we can see where it has reached today. Thinking how much profit we could have if we had held on to all our assets makes us feel bad, but it is what it is. This regret teaches me patience, however, I'm satisfied with the fact that the money I got in early days from Bitcoin were used for good causes in my life.
Cheers to all of us who are still around and enjoying this wonderful innovation.
