Late Adopter

[herpaderpdurr]

Well, today it's crashing, it might be the time to buy in a few hours, we're at 900 USD/BTC and going lower on Mt. Gox
I belive we're still early adopters

I'm a newbie, came across a few articles relating to BTC over the last couple of years, but didn't really think about looking too deeply at it, now that it's "out" and some are a bit more aware of it in the public domain, I thought I would have a proper look.

As others have said, it's still a bit high at the moment, and will probably drop back a bit, I will probably buy some at that point.

It's interesting that we might still be at the start, I think a lot of people like myself have thought "hang on I've missed the boat", but maybe not.

I have read a few article and so I am currently looking at Altcoins. I have started mining a very small amount of LTC using GUIminer, but anything is good for me really, as it's not the be-all-and-end-all not getting loads at the moment.

It's obvious there are potential risks, as with anything, but trying to run before you can walk it probably the downfall of most.

Cheers,

Neil

I would have gotten into BTC earlier but felt the process of getting setup wasn't going to be worth it. Now I see how high it went and I've been booting myself for weeks. Now I'll be stuck playing with other alt currencies

yep and you are killing yourself for being too lazy to seize the opportunity. i knew about bitcoin since 2011 and didn't get in until this year.. i missed a few other opportunities too, mainly with LTC.. i told myself "might as well put $100 into this.. it's only 6 cents per coin." i got too lazy and didnt' want to sign up at btc-e and totally lost out. a $100 investment would have turned into 30k by this time.

Yes.. it seems like we all have our regrets :b

Only if we had foreseen things like these

Hey folks,

When Bitcoin was at 273$ i figured that this train has left and it was pointless investing.

Lo and behold, not too long after it stands proud at its current value. Was curious as to whether how other late adopters like myself are planning to manage their crypto funds? I believe its set to climb much higher.. what do you think?

Any pearls of wisdom that you share will be much appreciated...trying to hold back from pooling in a good portion of my life savings in to it.

Your still not "late" Also I think that its not going to stand at a 1000 for too long, but I could be completely wrong. Be ready for the worst and hope for the best.

No need to kick ourselves. Let's just figure out how to make money as is right now :-)

Define late. Almost everyone i know does not even know what a bitcoin is, let alone altcoins. I think we are still early. If this thing really gets big, which it will probably, we can all get rich sooner or later!
