If anyone has seen my recent thread, I've been previously trying to recover a friend's account on Coinbase, in which he had a tiny bit of money a few years ago. After recovering the account, the total balance was approximately €200 worth of Bitcoin, which had been bought/sent, doesn't matter, in 2017, for €2, that's approximately a 9900% increase! These are the times we wish we had spent €10 or €20, and now we would have a semi-decent amount of money, not to mention what the results would be with larger amounts of money >€200.
I did some research a long time ago and I wasn't too surprised to discover that bitcoin is one of the most successful asset created by man thanks to Satoshi. I've seen multiple posts in the wall observer topic where the WO guys confessed they bought 2k or 1k's worth back then. The thing is many never saw the light in bitcoin till adoption gradually grew and price did likewise.
Many persons who bought bitcoin when it was just a few dollars or a few cents and kept them there till date were mostly lucky ones. Only a handful predicted this turnout.
