ATH achieved!
Jay was wrong and I was right,
But we're all winners!
Hahahahaha
Nice humor.
I like this, but I don't like it.
Let me see if I can reiterate an angle of the right wrong matter.
Right around the first week of May, someone said.. cough cough cough AlcoHoDL, that there was 99% or was it 100% chance? that BTC would break above the ATH, which was $109,356-ish.. and I said that I would take the otherside of that bet as long as I got 99% odds in terms of the amount of money (aka bitcoin) that I would be putting up. Sure, the amount on my end would hav had been small relative to the other side (somewhere in the ball park of 1/100th the size, and someone did not take the other side of such bet.. which means that such someone did not really believe the odds were 99%-ish or greater... otherwise such person would have had taken the other side of such sure bet... From the perspective of this here cat, 99% is a pretty high level of confidence.. if someone were to actually have that high of a level of confidence.. which no such person took the other side of the bet.. I proposed that I would have had taken the side of the bet in which I would put up 1/100th the amount.. which might have had been in the $10 arena (even though our terms were in bitcoin) while the other side of the bet would have had been around $1k.. and so I would have had lost $10 at the risk of potentially winning $1k.. I will take 1/100 odd bets any day, especially when the real odds were potentially somewhere in the 60% to 70% arena at the time of the proposal. .and even though at this time, the happening is at 100%, since it is now in the past and it already happened, as we all know..
I'll keep the part that you like. 🧡
Semantics are trees,
In an infinite forest.
Counting is futile!
#tl;dr:haikuYes, dreams do come true.
A genie in a bottle.
The keys to your coins!
Maybe some of us feel guilt about the whole path of bitcoin? It is not like we knew, which may be the reason that some of us invested in the ballpark of 13.5% of our quasi-liquid investment portfolio instead of a higher amount.. and also maybe a reason why some of us (such as yours truly) started shaving off extra trimmings starting at $250-ish.. and still, its amazing that the value has largely been compounding upon itself in terms of our having had around 9 doublings since $250. (
See list of the doublings, and see that the 9th doubling since $250 will be completed at $128k).

You are not alone. I didn't know either. Do I regret hesitating? Yes! But I'm happy to be where I am. It's a positive feedback loop. Once you see the forest, you'll never care about counting trees.
Doubt. Hesitation.
Knowledge. Accumulation.
Now, feel the
thunder!
