I think we all probably have a sob story. I was too broke to buy any when all the pickup artists on the forum I was on were buying a shit ton of it. So now all of those dick heads are living my dream of being rich and smashing tons of roastie.

When you really think about it being drug money is kind of why it succeeded in such a big way. It was one of the few currencies outside of physical money that could move a product and at the same time proved it could do so discretely.
The fact it paid for drugs was proof of concept that it could pay for anything.

Found bitcoin when it was just new people were buying pizzas and shit for 20,000 bitcoin. and filling up gas for 100,000 bitcoin.

I was in highschool so no way to buy, no credit card no debit card. i should have bought visa gift cards and traded them for bitcoin.

I had about 6000$ savings and my parents forced me to waste it all in community college where my dumbass professors made me waste money buying books we never fucking used.
if i put that in bitcoin at the time i could have retired early.

Would've had 9 figures if I sold the top...whups.

In the meantime I ignored ponzicurrency all together since the first reddit silkroad pump to 10 and missed eth, and only bought link at a dca of over a dollar. Fuck my dumbass life.
