I knew about bitcoin when it first came out and I'm still poor. People were talking about it on Ron Paul Forums. I just assumed it would fail somehow.

>> No.50389905

Stefan Molyneux relentlessly shilled Bitcoin in the very early days when it was <$10 and I just ignored it assuming it was something he was doing to make money on the side. I didn't even understand what it actually was.

I dont remember Stefan Molyneux ever explaining Bitcoin, he just more so focused on WHY you should have it, not HOW it actually works, if he actually explained the technology I would have bought it, but instead he just focused on WHY (government bad, money printer bad, etc)

Same, I knew about it when you could mine 1 BTC in 3 days in a mining pool, but I was scared that my GPU would die and just forgot about it. Feels really bad in hindsight of course lel

Checked btw.

yep so basically Im a morn and did everything wrong. I have like 1 BTC left and buy tiny amounts now weekly trying to get up to 1.5 at least. back in 2017 I was giving shit away, like I gifted my little niece bitcoin that would be worth thousands of dollars now. I still have an old coinfolio account with all the shitcoins its probably worth hundreds of thousands now had I just held on to what I had. but I just couldnt stomache the volatility and put too much money in
tl;dr dont be me
