I don't mean to poo poo too much, even though I do...

To me, it seems quite unrealistic (and fantasylandia) and not very representative of what might happen to some normie on the street to consider being in a place to be able to buy $600 worth of bitcoin in mid-2010 (instead of an Iphone 4).. I bought an Iphone 3, Iphone 4s and Iphone 5s.. . .I am not sure of the dates.. and surely there are some guys who figured out ways to get bitcoin prior to the beginning of 2012..  

I did a quickie search and I see that bought an Iphone 4s (maybe right around $400 - with 64GB I think) and an Ipad 2 (around $900 - I think that was 64 GB too).. around April 2011.

I am pretty sure that that my Phone 5s (also 64GB) purchase was around late 2014.. so I was already in bitcoin by that time, and I think I paid around $500 for that one.

For the purposes of proclaiming how richie a person could have had been or even comparing the buying of bitcoin to other assets or comparing to consumption that could have had happened, starting out in bitcoin at or around January 1, 2012 could have had gotten you right around 120 BTC with $600-ish... That 120 BTC seems enough to prove the point... and perhaps a wee bit more realistic in terms of having a reasonable starting base that might have been somewhat possible for someone to enter into bitcoin .. even though surely it still may well have been quite difficult to get bitcoin, even in 2012.. . .and gosh even when I got into bitcoin in late 2013, there were a lot of difficulties... depending on what country a person might be in.. even though Local Bitcoins was becoming more widespread in those times.. even though I imagine in remote locations it would be quite difficult to find someone to transact with directly..  .

By the way, I do recognize and appreciate that arguably, bitcoin experienced one of its most meaningful first price runs in mid-2011 (June-ish) up to $32. .and sure that might have had been a sign of an expanding recognition of bitcoin needing to have some kind of a price. so sure some of the price moves prior to 2012 count in regards to people finding out more and more and more about bitcoin.


Oh Fuck me. I have to repost.. the above response to d_eddie and add the intended link, since I had thought that I had posted thea "very, very good" link.. but I had not put the actual link in theremy responsive post, and so this is the best link that I could find in my attempts to research into the "very, very good" matter... .It is's a classic (and perhaps iconic) Saturday Night Live sketch of Garrett Morris acting the part (comedically) asof baseball player Chico Escuela.
