But my fear of government intervention cost me the opportunity to achieve wealth beyond my wildest dreams. I see things differently now. I take risks.
You learnt from your experience the costly nature of unnecessary disbelief, something that could have easily been settled with a little interest and research. I think for most persons who refused believing in Bitcoin and cryptocurrency did not believe mostly because a part of them mostly did not want to accept the new technology.
Individuals with an open mind towards new technology even though they do not have proper information about bitcoins have openly accepted this new innovation with the mindsets to find out exactly what it is. That is the kind of mindset to have.
Some individuals were able to develop that sort of mindset and it was new technology as celebrating their courage today in profits.
