I got it free in 2009/10 don't remember exactly. Bought maybe $10 worth, but it was free, so wasn't a need. I'm not new and not against Bitcoin. I think it's the most beautiful tech of of century. It's freedom tech. I had high hopes for it and still think it will be a standard layer under many daily transactional layers in the future. It's just very disappointing to see the new class of the last few years be so closed minded, controlling, refusing innovation, salty and petty about new iterations, experiments and free markets. It's boomercoin now, stagnant with gatekeepers and a community that worships figureheads and slogans. Just sad man.
