Bitcoin. I knew about it from the very beginning.

Bitcoin. I knew about it from the very beginning.
- paulgb 4y agoIf it's any consolation, you probably would have lost it all in Mt. Gox's blowup anyway. (At least that's what I tell myself :))
- OscarDC 4y agoHa! I tell myself exactly the same thing, I even registered to Mt Gox (which I think - my memory is not to clear - included sending some identification papers) to finally just chickening out when it was time to put my money by instead asking my non-tech family what I should do - which of course was not to put money in that weird thing. Now, I half have a large regret and half tell myself that I would have lost it all anyway.
- controversial97 4y agoThe price of bitcoin went up so much after mtgox went bankrupt that the bitcoin the bankrupcy trustee has found is currently worth about $2.8 billion. At some point in the next year or two, up to 90% of that will be returned to the 25,000 creditors who filled in the paperwork to make a claim years ago.
- waterlaw 4y agoHaha. I lost all my bitcoin stored on a personal wallet. Doesn't even have to be Mt. Gox
- matsemann 4y agoMeh, would probably have sold once my $10 investment reached $1000 or $10,000 or so anyways, no way most people would've kept their head cold (and _gambled_) on it going even further.
- Kiro 4y agoI sold at $100. Thought it was a massive overpriced bubble and insane that it was worth $100. No regrets.
- camjohnson26 4y agoI sold 8 Ethereum at $50 each, up from $18. Still think it was the right decision though, nobody can predict the future. Did keep a couple as a hedge fortunately.
- xupybd 4y agoHa! A bit coin miner was almost my honours project. I console myself in the fact that I would have sold any Bitcoin I might have mined well before the price really took off.
- easymac 4y agoI regret often all of the shopping I did on darknet markets (drugs) in the mid 2010s ... an outright waste of money & potential on two levels.
