Hello fellow plebs. What's your BTC noob story? Let me share mine first to kickstart it:

In 2013 I was in (local equivalent of middle/high) school and mined just out of curiosity ca 1.5btc on my (even then) prehistoric computer.

I deleted the wallet and everything else to have space on disk for Minecraft and League of Legends just a couple months after that.

Then I completely forgot about Bitcoin until 2017 when I was loudly arguing, that the price is just a bubble and I won't buy anything out of FOMO.

I felt incredibly vindicated and forgot about btc once again only to eventually learn more and finally give in in 2020.

Then due to financial troubles I had to sell most of it in 2022 close to the bottom below $20K.

Feel free to share your own royal fuckups to make me and others feel better.

Luckily, I haven't really fucked up yet. But I remember my first buy was in Ethereum, and I bought it to gamble (I thought it was investing 😂) with even more low-quality coins like Tron, OMG, and other coins I've already forgotten. I thought Bitcoin was outdated, slow, and whatnot.

It took several months to understand that Bitcoin should be part of a crypto portfolio. Luckily, I realized some time ago that I was wrong. There is no portfolio. It's only Bitcoin.

Not really a fuck-up, but I could have some more sats today if I had never bought any altcoins.
