To be fair I started late 2017. "I can afford to lose a couple hundred bucks". And didn't study enough for about 2 years. Then the bull hit and I went crazy.

Found my way back on the path though.

I shitcoined hard in 2017 πŸ˜…

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ 🀘🏻

You too, ralf?

Haha, omg!

Funcking ICOs…

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚i was shitcoinning in 2018 a lot, lost a lot ... too 😬

2018 was my first time witnessing destruction of such proportions.

I just kept watching my shitcoins go down and down and down

It taught me so much…

same here, 2018 was the year i became a btcmaxi

We are survivors πŸ’ͺ

One good thing is that, at least, I never believed the Bitcoin killer narratives.

Remember Nano?

yess πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ but the good thing about shitcoinery in 17/18: the absolut losses were smaller than the would be now πŸ™ˆ

True!

🀣

Collect them all πŸ˜‚

That was the motto, get into as many of these as possible 😭

Once you let go of the "get rich" mindset and actually see it for what it is... it becomes so much more than de gainz.

Yet the get rich part may actually be feasible.

To me, it's the portability. Try carrying large amounts of cash across a border, or even through airports within a country. No more expensive and complicated wire transfer requests, no more trying to hide cash in your baggage and praying that some TSA agent will steal it while your baggage is out of your sight (even as carry ons). I'm surprised that cash businesses (think casinos, especially) don't have some kind of BTC->Fiat "ATM" right in the casino. At least until they just take BTC for wagering, which may or may not be popular as most large gamblers prefer to remain as anonymous as possible.

Portability also ranks very high for me

That's portability meah.

i was living in warsaw and always travelling with my ledger back and forth from germany ... what a feeling crossing borders 🧑🧑🧑

It’s exciting!

How long you think until they start asking questions about that when crossing borders?

it's legally impossible to stop this as my bitcoins are on the chain, not in my pocket

I know that it would do nothing, but it would not surprise me if they some day added hardware wallets to some kind of no-fly objects list.

Didn’t we all…

Oh no, you too?

😭😭😭

Dude, I worked for a shitcoin app company for a whole year in 2019. I knew it was never going to make it, but I needed the paycheck after getting rekt on ICOs in 2018. At least I got paid in dollars and saved some of it in bitcoin.

That’s quite a story!

2018 was a grim year… that bear market beat my ass repeatedly.

We all do what we have to at the time πŸ˜‚
