One side says "Bitcoin good!"
I assume they all still hold bitcoin or dream of doing so.
One side says "Bitcoin bad!"
I assume they don't hold bitcoin.
I think the idea is sexy, and it definitely harkens back to the earlier hacker/counterculture days of the interwebs.
But I guess I will just sit on the sidelines. I don't even lament selling bitcoin at $300 any more. :)
- skyyler 3y agoI sold a bunch of BTC for $1 and bought a car with it. I used to regret that, the most expensive Ford Escort ever purchased. But now I feel like I dodged a bullet, I could have been one of those zealots that spent all day every day thinking about crypto, and I'm very glad I'm not.
- quotz 3y agoZealot or not, it sucks to miss out on having a few dozen millions. My cofounder also sold very early and he refrains from talking about it
- skyyler 3y agoKnowing I wouldn't have to work if I just held on to it... It does sting. But I had to get a car to get to work back then. So there's not much to be mad about.
- imtringued 3y agoIt is ok to be mad about a "currency" that devalues human effort and rewards blind luck instead.
- sangnoir 3y agoThis is like regretting not playing the lottery after they publish the numbers as you now know the winning numbers, post facto. You make decisions with the information you have. No one had any way of predicting Bitcoin pricing (or the cheap money trend that juiced its price & crypto companies funding rounds).
