When did you make your first buy after years questioning and a year wishing it would just go?

That’s impressive especially having spent time thinking about it. I finally bought after a few months watching end of 17. I had completely missed it twice in ‘10 and’12. I’d never have held anyway as the whole thing went over my head completely back then. ‘10 was a science piece on Laszlo bringing a value to bitcoin. Literally thought magic Internet money tech nonsense. Doh ! 😂

Yeah I was discussing it in college and I graduated in 2011. I have a stem/econ background so it fit right in . I wasn’t really thinking about investing back then tho I was more worried about getting a real job/starting my career

I’m from the Ron Paul 08/12 class . I’m just glad I never bought gold lol. That’s what they were all pushing as sound money

Respect ! Hat tip 🫡

It took me a while to get over the regret of listening to the idiots in the early years and learn to trust myself. But alas this is a very common story. I’m just happy I figured it out when I did and was right lol . I have never discussed btc irl once where there was any signal at all. It was always just fud and moronic comments. Like the ops still make

I think I might have ended up in a ditch if I was that early lol I wasn’t ready

It’s virtually impossible talking about it irl

It’s so bad. So much information asymmetry left . But now the Wall Street machine is behind us and they have infinite money for marketing

The only narrative though is buy ETF. No one understands or cares about the ethos behind bitcoin

It doesn’t matter. Number go up is the only narrative that matters

Kinda true, but ideally not to have your sats confiscated helps too

It’s not something the etf buyers will even have to worry about other than the fantasy op fud . But regardless I’m still holding my keys

Same. I only came for NGU, now it’s more about the paradigm shift
