Following the messages related to a topic about BTC purchases, I noticed that many users were hodlers and had never bought anything in BTC, but perhaps early adopters regret their past purchases? In the case of Laszlo Hanyecz (purchase of two pizzas for 10,000 bts in 2010), he said he had no regrets because it helped raise awareness of Bitcoin and promote its use as a currency.
What about you? Do you regret past purchases?
Why regret events that happened in the past if it can't be changed? Regret about the past will only "poison" the present.
You ask this question to understand whether
BTC-users have a syndrome of missed opportunity? Because bitcoin in the past and now has a completely different value. If I were in Laszlo's place and bought 2 pizzas for 10,000
BTC (which would make me a millionaire now), I still would not regret it at the moment. Since there is no direct financial damage. At the time of purchasing these pizzas, these 10,000
BTC were worth ridiculous money. And it is not a fact that these 10,000
BTC could be saved to this day.
Lack of financial success is not a loss, and lost profits only mean that you are left with what you have.
Interesting perspective — I agree that regret over "missed" opportunities can be a trap, especially in something as unpredictable as crypto. The Laszlo example is a great reminder that context matters: 10,000 BTC back then really was just a fun experiment.
As for BTC hitting $150,000 in 2025 — who knows? It's possible, especially if institutional adoption continues, ETF flows increase, and macro conditions (like inflation or fiat instability) push more people toward alternative assets. But just like in the past, timing the top is nearly impossible.
What matters more is the mindset: are we here just to chase numbers, or to be part of a long-term shift in how value is stored and moved?
Curious to hear what others think — is $150K just hopium, or a realistic next step?
