I bought BTC in 2011, but the price had risen to $6.50 when I made my purchase. So the number really stuck out when I read Uno's original note. It was an easy mistake to make, especially if you were relying on ChatGPT. It's basically the correct number, but it's missing three zeros.

I have gone round and round with myself about not knowing about Bitcoin in those early days. It was so much harder to self-custody back then, and my life was tumultuous at the time, I just know I would have either lost it or the bitch I was married to would have stolen it. I tip my hat to you sir. Buying when you did and not losing it is a tremendous accomplishment. 🫡

I was active in the #bitcoin-otc IRC channel, which was where all the serious bitcoiners hung out. It was all p2p trades using the IRC channel as a way to establish trust. It was like a secret club back then. I'm glad I took the chance and got in back then because it's changed my life.
