The only difference between then and now is the price because back then the price was very much cheap, and if it were nowadays almost every investors would have own a bitcoin those capable ones would have own like 10btc in their portfolios, but it was  quite unfortunate that most of us couldn't figure out the good potential of bitcoin back then. But I think is still very early for us to correct our mistakes by accumulating as much as we can, because the Market is becoming unpredictable no one knows what will happen in the near future.
