Hello,

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.

Does anyone have similar experiences?






Those 0.0021 BTC you recovered could potentially be worth €2000 or even €20 000 if left on Coinbase for another 10 years. But the truth is that you never know if you'll even be around that long. Personally, I’d rather risk regretting the missed gains than ignore my current needs. When BTC can help with real-life expenses now I believe it's worth using and forget about might be lost profit.
