i did worse. i did invest in it in 2012. then sold it for a loss a few days later. few months later i hear its 10x its value, i buy it, i sell it for a loss again a few days later. year or two later its 10x its value again. i do it again. and you think 3 times was bad? 3 years later i see its like 10,000, i buy, sell for loss. right after it hits its 2017 all time high of 21,000, i buy the top, it crashes to 3,000.

then we have this bull market of 2020-2021 and...i didnt buy in at all because i thought i was gonna do it again! i am one of the most retarded people alive and i cant seem to learn.

This is why I stopped letting my ego get the better of me. I am not smart, i am not better. I'm just one of a billion, with a chance at making some money if I would be open minded.

and when i first bought bitcoin it was like...$14. i bought then sold for $11. i calculated it out and if i had just kept all money i ever put in it in it i would have over $4,000,000

I'm not a cynical hyper-skeptical contrarian faggot so I was able pay attention long enough to read about what it actually was, let the believers make their case and why it was a disruptive tech. Now I'm a millionaire.
