Bitcoin Forum

Made this little app for the dreamer traders out there :)
whatifbitcoin.com (http://whatifbitcoin.com)

I really appreciate what you do, it is very sad because sometimes I remember the past and regret why I do not invest in bitcoin.
Overall I like the coding you make, it's entertaining for me.  ;D

We all have choices we didnt take and regrets in life, but it is how life working out there  ;D
If i knew colonel sanders or investing in microsoft in 90s will make lots of money, I will take the risks before they even become as big as now
However, sometimes it was nice to have a dream about the past  ;D ;D

Thanks for that app you do made and just like what have been said above Its really sad to think of on the past that we didnt jump in on the bitcoin boat and now it leaves us regrets that we might be millionaires as of now but well thats life if things arent for you it wont really be done after all. I have heard about bitcoin on those years but i just said to my mind that it might be an another scam on the internet.

Great app, now I feel more regrets haha.
It's all in the past now, we only need to move forward.

Well, we all have that one past we'd like to change.
It's all about our choises actually, I've heard about bitcoin years ago, but...  :'(

Yest, I think most of us know that feeling. The good news, or at least I hope that, is that the BTC will continue to rise a lot, so we will still be happy we are holding some now, and probably a lot of users will be in the situation we are now, but maybe for them it will be to late.

Hahaha, I like your post. I earned 2.28272409 BTC in bitlanders sometime in 2013 and deposited it a local Bitcoin exchange afterward, Bitcoin price then is around $47 more or less. By February 2014, Bitcoin price rose a peak of $717 more or less, I was thinking of withdrawing it but did not. In early days of January 2015, the price of Bitcoin drops to a $275 but it's gaining momentum again little by little until it reaches $726 in November 2016. Outright, I withdrew more than 90% of it. By January 3, 2017, Bitcoin registered an outstanding $1020.47 price mark, :'( :'( :'( ...and for the first time Bitcoin breaks $1000 in 3 years.  :(  :(

There is no need to become sad because this is not the end of Bitcoin story. Start investing now in a small amount and hold on to it. After few years you can still get a chance to become rich but if you don't invest now by thinking of the very high price of Bitcoin then after few years you may be in a today situation and will regrate again for not investing now.

It was almost impossible to buy bitcoins in 2011

hahaha... yeah nice app. now I can weep in the corner
first time I knew bitcoin was thru faucet and the price was around $100 per btc
I got my fraction of bitcoin (0.0015) from faucet by supplying mobile phone number, I think bitcoin.st or something like that
now I beg you please invent a time travel capsule, so I can go back and buy shitload of bitcoins

Yeah I also regret the time that the bitcoin is still has low value. That time I have no care to the bitcoin and that is one of the worst decision that I made. Now I caring my bitcoins like a treasure and for me Bitcoin is Life.

HAHA maybe it wasn't a good idea to post it here if everyone got sad :), don't worry about it people opportunities come and go :), some people think bitcoin will go to 1mill in 2025 so there are still lots of opportunities hopefully ;)

Certainly there is no regret because very few actually know that bitcoin would come such a long way and can still go a long way now. Its the anticipation and forecasting which would have helped if you know the technology right in the start and its future prospect would have certainly helped you to made a millionaire within few years.

Now its the time to make investment in some of the good altcoin which will make you millionaire in coming years.

Dam I just got 53% of profit from your app if I would have invested back in 2012. Haha. Really nice app and you have made it for fun I guess. It's cool to remind those dats when bitcoin was just nothing but piece of junk and no body was interested in it.

I'm sure everyone those knew bitcoin since 2012 and did not invested money into bitcoin must be regretting at this point in their life. Sad but true.

Hm, fun app really. I'm trying through all the timelines and couldn't stop calculating the profits. Over the long term investment we could have earned back lot of money but as if now the price is too high for bitcoin and not worth buying it. But it also feels that (from your app) that what if same situation happens in the future and bitcoin at then becomes more than 5000 dollars or something, it is risk but it's worth it.

there are a lot of "what ifs" in reality that makes your head spin. my favorite one is claiming bitcoin faucets back in the early years or just receiving 100BTC or something like that as a giveaway from someone trying to introduce you to bitcoin :)

and i am very happy that i am now a part of one of those "what ifs". the what if saying "what if you bought bitcoin when it was $200" and i did do that and now that $200 is worth $2700 and heading for more.

WOW what a big big profit.If in 2011 theres a bitcoin already.So many bitcoiners now are millionaire and others are earning.Because I prove that it is true.My sister now is rich because in less than two years she earn already of 20000 pesos.

Why there is no scenario for late-2009 and 2010? At least one Bitcoin exchange was operational by the second half of 2009 (New Liberty Standard) and it was possible to purchase BTC for PayPal or Visa. The exchange rate was around BTC1,000 for 1 USD.

There is no point beating yourself about the past or what you have missed what really makes the difference is what are you doing about changing the situation in which I believe everyone who have found his/her way into bitcoin at any point in time has realized that. Even me, I wished I had been here very much earlier than when I joined but I still have the consolation that I am earlier than someone who joined today and it goes on and on. The future is what everyone should focus on now.

If i really had any clue that the price of bitcoin could spiral like this i would have purchased a hell lot of coins,i initially though about its uses and did not understand how this will make an impact but like everybody i was wrong,the pick up and adaptation was really fast and even if you got those coins for one dollar you would have sold everything when it hit $50. :D

Wow 944k$ from 100$. Missed my chance to be a millionaire ;D I still think that even now if you invest your money, you will gain a good profit in some years. Maybe not that big but deffinetly you will quadruple your money.

Nothing positive would come out of regret amd that is already way past us now. I don't think anyone expected btc to go this way in a a few years. If you've invested in 2011 and saw your investments grow to like 50%, i think you won't think of holdinbon for a few more years. Few people may have stuck it out with btc and have been richer now because if it but we can't turn back time right? So we have to look to the future.

Absolutely!!! You don't need to be sad, If you would only just stick around sucking your finger remembering the past and keep on regretting you still can't change what has done. So it is better to move on and start to change your plans for the better you, the chance is still there, you only need to have courage in yourself and do it while you still can.

Never look back to bypassed opportunities. You can still invest to gain good profits in future.

Mostly of us doesn't know bitcoins for that year and to lucky for those guys who give a shit with this coin before since most provably they earn bunches of money todays, but its not the end of the profits time since bitcoins are still existing and we can earn huge money with it if we stake,invest and be wise on all things upon putting some decision interms of btc spending.

People here in forum keeps on thinking about on how much they had actually earned if they were able to invest or buy bitcoin before.

Go move on guys, we are in the new time of crypto currency start working harder today.

Opportunities are still there.

Some of the other guy just mesmerizing the past and make it as their basis upon believing that they can earn some money by staking for this days. But for me I don't think its a good decision since unlike before theirs more opportunity opened up that can make us earn more rather than staking our coins to our wallet.

Analysis the past should not make us blame ourselves for indecision but to take action now and make another 930k few years to come. I think we should invest now as bitcoin has a great potential for growth in future.

It is good app and i submit in it $110 and i have missed this chance to make millionaire.
It is my bad luck. But instead of it i came in bitcoin field not too much late.
Because when i came in bitcoin then bitcoin price was $300 and now you look bitcoin give me triple profit and it is enough and good for me, because i am not greedy person.

Many of us missed that chance for becoming a millionaire. I think its not too late thou, there are other coins that will make this rise in next 7 years. But which ones? 110$ invested in couple good and new altcoins can bring a fortune in next 5-10 years.
In 2011 I wasn`t here, but I`m now and i have some picks, I save in bitcoins now so anything can happen. This application is nice for dreamers and people who are not in bitcoins yet, in this way they can see how big opportunity they are missing for not being active here.

Well if that's the case, they had to move on. They don't need to be chasing the past they had to focus on the present and the things to come in the future and move positive so that their expectations will be reached soon.

I had a feeling like this before but we can't go back the time and regret always come out at the end.

Of course eventhough that there have been missed opportunity in the past, we still can invest in bitcoin and possible be a millionaire in the future. That is why bitcoin saving is really worth but you need to have a good patience in order to enjoy profit later. I'm still trying hard to earn at least 1 bitcoin in my wallet and will not touch it whatever happens.

t's not too late to buy bitcoins now)

Never too late, just buy now and hold. What you think if invest $100 in 2017 you will have 930k in 2025?

Cute app :) How about a more positive side of things and create a similar what ifs for coins that are dead today? Hint hint ponzi coins and hint hint yesteryear ICOs. Just need to ground the dreamers with a glimpse of the nightmares they avoided!

Hmm good but they need a heart as well because they seems too be lazy and you know that lazy person cannot become a investor or rich he always got dumped in fake things so I woud like to say that it is an opportunity by bitcoin that it is still on $2800 USD which is still little amount for people who are having money go and buy some of bitcoin to have a good future.

because we cannot go back to year 2011 so i think this application is good for fun only or at least we know how much profit would they got for those who holding bitcoin since 2011 indeed 933,233% profit is fantastic and i think they deserve to get that

933,233% rate of interest seems like an insanely high one considering the time value of money. Nobody would've ever saw this coming not even Satoshi himself. One can only visit the site and sadden himself as to how he didn't invest in Bitcoin back then.

To OP, nice little site you've created which can make people laugh and cry (mostly the latter)

So sad in my part because I remember how regretful it was that I did not buy this bitcoin when I first encounter this bitcoin. Sadly but that this is the fact that people is experiencing because no one knew that bitcoin will grow this far even its developer. But now I lessen my regret because I know it is not yet too late to invest on because we are still growing, its users and investors is getting high. That is how I comfort myself then.

its been fun to play with our dream like that site show to us. unfortunately, i know bitcoin in last 2015 so in that year, bitcoin price is around $200-$3xx. and in that year, i don't have much money to invested in bitcoin so i only use faucet to earn bitcoin. the concept is good for remembering us in which year we've been know bitcoin and made investment in bitcoin.

Yeah, no need to worry, but it's not like any of us will every make this kind of profit. If you buy bitcoin at the price of $3000 now for $100 you will have 0.3 bitcoins. You will proudly hold it for ten years when bitcoin hits enormous price of $100000 per coin! You sell your bitcoins and you get 3000 dollars. It's not like it's some bad money, but waiting 10 years to make $3000 out of your $100? There won't be any more "random millionairs" like they are now when all you had to do was to buy this some funny new internet coin few years ago, forget about it and wake up in 2017 when it's now worth really much. There will be people who get rich by trading and investing in altcoins that are now for few cents and if they get big you can talk about someone who bought $100 random altcoin and got rich in few years of holding it. But holding bitcoin won't make you a millionaire any more.

but only few people that could hold until ten years except that person is no need money to fill his life and considering to make bitcoin as long term investment. but if he don't have much of money, then he can not stay until ten years and maybe he will sell his bitcoin before a years. but if we buy bitcoin when the price is down like yesterday which reach $22xx, then I think it could makes us to have money after one years.

I am also going for this kind of calculation time to time so that I am getting myself encouraged to go for bitcoin earning like trading and freelancing.

Indeed those who are believing in to bitcoin and holding it for years must be deserving that much profits. I guess we can also make similar profits if we start saving bitcoins at least from today. Bitcoin prices are already starting it's another wave toward $4000/$5000 levels, I guess this August month is going to surprise all of us.

Passive investing or buy-and-hold is like investing money in bitcoin, buy Bitcoin when the price is low then hold it for a long time. Investing money always seek for a big profit so if you are passive investors, you can make your money grow.

... And if you buy today, by 2022, you'd be 7k richer.

We'll never really know for sure but things are looking good and probably we'll come to a point in the future when we'll thank our past selves for saving up a lot of btcs :D

You did nice application mate, I like the interface you made, it was pity and regrettable during the time that I ignored bitcoin when it was 100$. But its already done and we cannot turn it back, but still not too late to buy bitcoin now, we do still have a chance to save some of it.

 ;D if u invest 100$ in 2011 u lost all in mtgox!
if u invest 100$ in 2017 u lost all in btc-e
life doesn't ez for everyone

I've heard about bitcoin since 2010 but I'm to naive to purchase them and make an investment.
And it's my biggest regret until now

Well we should move on , we can't turn back time. Atleast now we have a chance to use it and make the moat out of it. It's never too late . We should work hard now,that it's already proven that we can do earn through it.

Even if i invest $100 back in 2011, i can't still think that i will get that huge profit because i am not patient in terms of investing and i am more like a trader and i think if the price will go up to $500 then i will sell my bitcoins and forget and i am regretting now but we should just focus on what we have right now and make sure that the opportunities that we have right now should not be wasted.

 ;D I have 138 btc in 2011 and lost all when mtgox get hack  :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

I think still there are chance to invest $100 to become $930.000, we can invest in altcoins that has good potential in the future to become expensive, we must choose the altcoins that the price under $1/ coins or we invest in ICOs, they have big chance to make big profit in the future than we make investment in bitcoins.

The app says "If you invested $4,000 in BITCOIN on 2011-01-01
You would have made 1,433,233% ROI, that's $57,329,333 in profit"

Well done you have cheer me up :D , bitcoin now is so powerful.
Cannot believe if i invested that much money back in 2011 , i am a millionaire now with 4 wife beside me  ;D .

Nice app. But don't forget that you can never know what future will bring. So to say "if you have" is a little pathetic. Would you have invested $100 in 2009 in a new geek stuff currency noone believes in? When I heard of Bitcoin first I thought that it will disappear one day and it is just an technical experiment. Who would invest in such stuff. Today we are smarter but now it's too late. So only the guys who gambled with their money in the early years and hodled at least 7 years are rich now.

I have been investing in BTC 2 years ago. I wish I could know to the bitcoin sooner. I will invested all my assets with BTC. maybe now I have become a billionaire

The app in a way will make people understand why being a part of bitcoin at this early stage is worth it. It may seem like it does not really feel good now, but time definitely will tell. However, there is no need to regret since we can not turn back the hands of time or do a time travel.
We are here now and this should make everyone believe that we are just starting.
