A Missed Opportunity with Bitcoin

[POPOLUV]

I still remember the year 2015, during my National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in the east part of the country. One of my fellow corps members caught up in the craze of the Ponzi scheme era, sold all his Bitcoin just to invest in one of those schemes. I recall him even offering to sell me some of his Bitcoin in exchange for cash but I refused.
Looking back now the past is truly behind us. We should have invested in Bitcoin instead of falling for Ponzi schemes. The value we overlooked then has now become a lesson for the future.

This is the exact thing that can eventually happen to anyone that doesn't know the truth value of Bitcoin because of lack of knowledge on how Bitcoin actually works and the benefits he could have gotten from 2015 till update, shall most of people have such experience in the past selling their Bitcoin just to invest in Ponzi scheme just because of making a quick profit without knowing that they are selling life future investment that would have been very helpful in the future to comes, but i believe now if you eventually have such opportunities now, you will rush to grab it without having two thought in mind because i know that you have the full knowledge on how Bitcoin works and the profit you can get over years.

This is why it is good to identify good assis instead chasing unrealistic goals, you know what, the year you mentioned was full of Ponzi scheme which manay people was victim to those waste, I could remember mmm shit that.messedany people up then, even since them til now, the negative effect of that Ponzi scheme called MMM is still their in most victims minds, it is very unfortunate that some person have to seel their precious investment to investment in something that has no direction, although ignorance is disease that eat up peoples minds without mercy that's if they fail to retrace fast, the did has already been done but we have e to face the fact now, the opportunity is still here, so it is better not to see anything as an obstacle again if you can invest at ease with the amount you can adapt to.

This is the line that most people would relate with if we are talking of Bitcoin and its history from the start when it was less than a dollar. Regrets won't make us better, we should learn to move on. Laszlo Hanyecz has surely moved on and likewise many of us who have had such times we could have invested in bitcoin. But the good story is that Bitcoin is still with us and is never going to disappear, which means the opportunities missed in the past can also be regained if we have the balls to hodl Bitcoin longer. Bitcoin is a volatile asset that you can hodl for bull season to catch up with it. So if we think the price is high now that we are thinking it has exhausted it ATH for this season then we can wait for bear season to buy and hodl for bull to arrive again.

Lesson not to forget, each time you look at the Bitcoin price, of what price it was many years ago around 2015, and the price it is currently.

Many of us don being miss such opportunities, some didn't even know what Bitcoin was in 2015 or have a friend wey get Bitcoin, wey wan sell bitcoin to them.

Na of recently wey many of us begin to find Bitcoin interesting because of wetin we don hear about am, and see wetin em done do to people's wealth, by changing their financial status to be good. That come make us anticipating to know about am, to even have it as our store of value for the future.

Since then, I don't think there are any of us wey don regretted the step they take to be investing in Bitcoin through a DCA means.

Whaooo, this sounds funny, in the year 2016 during my school university days there is this ponzi scheme that nearly destroyed people's life so if you tell people about Bitcoin they will tell you nah the same people. Though me I won't lie to you that particular scenario really changed my mindset about Bitcoin but it was recently I came to release that Bitcoin is real and I will advice people to forget about the past and key into Bitcoin. The future is bright.

Just like your friend and many others myself included, you had no idea that bitcoin will be this big today as of that time. I remember back then when Ponzi schemes were the talk of town in the country, many people were assuming bitcoin to be one of those Ponzi schemes and they were hoping that it will fall. But many years down the line bitcoin is still growing stronger. We all missed opportunities, but let us focus on the future and let go of the past. The past will only drain us.

An opportunity that's lost cannot be regained but there's always other things you can take advantage of. A lot of us slept on Bitcoin way back and probably got involved in ponzi schemes because we just wanted to make quick money but we learn from experiences and that's how we grow in life. Thinking about what could have have been isn't really going to change anything instead what you can do now is to make research about what you want to invest in and take it seriously. The future belongs to people that takes advantage of the present and start investing from now, if you don't do that you will still end up regretting again in the future

I have learned more from my past mistakes than from any success because that is what life is a journey of growth through lessons.

Yeah, you know back then in 2015 alot of guys didn't figure out the potential of bitcoin which is why they did all of that and sure alot of guys sold thier bitcoin investment just to participate in those ponzi scheme while others were gambling with thier bitcoin though I could imagine how difficult it is to hold a coin that you don't even know if it has a good potential in the future or not, because alot of people were also holding coins that seems to be very promising in the future but they left without fulfilling the promises they made so crypto investment is a risky game because those who are able to HODL thier bitcoin in the long run when the potential is yet to be reviewed took a very big risk because had it mean the potential return was not actually what they were expecting we wouldn't have been blaming those that sold their bitcoin investment in the middle or half of thier journey.

Many people then came to know Bitcoin through Ponzi Scheme and I'm wondering what Ponzi Scheme your friend participated in when actually MMM was the first one but came around 2016. Anyway, I'm not doubting you but your friend was smart enough to have known Bitcoin so early but no nothing about how it would be today. If I can say, many people had used their Bitcoin careless from the pass and regretting today because of lack of knowledge, lack of patient and incompetent behavior.

I have learned more from my past mistakes than from any success because that is what life is a journey of growth through lessons.

Anyway, it's part of the lesson learnt but we can't keep on learning lesson and not correcting them, how many have accumulated so far after learning your lessons?

Knowledge makes people aware and powerful. If we try to learn about the history of Bitcoin, we will see that there was a time when Bitcoin could be earned very easily, and it did not require a large amount of money. Those who patiently saved in Bitcoin have achieved complete success today.
They earned Bitcoin in 2015 but did not keep it thinking about the future and they are regretting it. They have nothing to do but regret it. This is a life lesson. If you do not understand the potential in time, you will regret it at a great cost in the future. Opportunities do not come again and again. Those who can use them properly achieve something good in this life and succeed.

It was only haters who saw bitcoin as a ponzi scheme,  those who were investing their money on ponxi scheme never invested in bitcoin , they never had interest in bitcoin because bitcoin they felt bitcoin was slow to give profit and ponzi scheme seems so fast that is why people invested in ponzi scheme more.

Even them those who were investing in bitcoin sold out their bitcoin to invest in ponzi scheme and they all crashed. The funny thong about these ponzi scheme after one crash,  their will be new project and people lose their money in the previous scheme that was crashed still invest on the new ponzi scheme.
