I have a friend who got to have 3 bitcoins in shitcoins, I told him in 2017, man change it for Bitcoin, he did not do it, and when he changed it after the down cycle its value was 0.8 bitcoins.

After that he started to do DCAs and move on a bit from shitcoins.

Now he tells me he wants to sell to get a return.

He's a smart guy, but he hasn't learned shit for all these years, he continues to see Bitcoin as an investment and shitcoins as a possibility.

It hasn't helped him, I hope this sad story will help someone of you.

It makes me want to crucify him.

Newbie here. So you're suggesting that one do what with btc? To get as much as possible and what? To start buying and in general dealing with it?

Bitcoin has been the best store of value known to mankind for 15 years.

It is a very short time yes, but if it has managed to be the best store of value in just 15 years it is because it is very powerful.

Just keep the surplus of your work, i.e. your savings in Bitcoin and only use it when you need it, as simple as that.

Understood. And when it comes to a wallet which is recommended for a mobile device? I've seen too many around claiming that their the best...

Green Wallet, for several reasons:

- It is the blockstream wallet, founded by Adam Back, one of the original cypherpunks.

- It supports Bitcoin, Liquid and Lightning.

- The multi-signature 2fa features it has are fantastic for a mobile wallet.

I think this is a problem of perspective, they're not dreaming big enough. Stuck with a short sighted fiat mindset.

Buy it, hodl, do everything you can to never let go of it. Maybe one day you have to... but know that this will be robbing your future self and heirs

Very frustrating. This is years of conditioning that needs to be undone.
