1,078,000,000% increase in 15 years back.
That is really crazy and it all happened in a blinking of an eye! It's as if it were yesterday that I found out about Bitcoin from a friend and got into it back in 2014 (a couple of years later). By that time price was around $400-$500. What I like about those times is that price kept going down (all the way to $150) and I never even blinked. I've always been interested in the technology and the financial sovereignty that Bitcoin offers more than anything else.

I've gone through a lot too in this long period too. Apart from that massive drop I mentioned, I watched so much FUD! I'd say one of the weirdest ones was from a bitcoin core developer called Mike Hearn who one day called bitcoin a failure and sold his coins and got out!!! And mainstream media went bananas over it, they had found the ultimate FUD and were running with it everywhere.
I don't think today anybody even remembers Hearn anymore and Bitcoin is still going strong...
