I sold most of the bitcoin I got from mining as soon as I got it. I got multiple coins a day and some them for between 5-10$ each.

I saved 80 coins and basically forgot about them. I kept the wallet password on my desktop like a moron and my ex wife deleted it when she decided to tidy up the computer. I read a story that bitcoin was up to like 10k and remembered I had those coins. I was fucking elated...until I tried to locate the wallet passcode. The data had been overwritten too many times to recover on my own and a 3rd party company was unable to recover it.

It keeps me up some nights. I wish I would have kept physical and digital backups. I just didn't expect bitcoin to be worth thousands.

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

My worst bitcoin decision was when I entered into here in this forum and then the rate of  btc was as low as some of the altcoins today. It was then I did not trust the concept of bitcoin and considered it all as a fake. i had an opinion that bitcoin had no backing and if any loss happens to us in the crypto market there is no prospect or scope for recovery. So never did i trust on the concept of the bitcoin. At that time I  had ample funds and i wasted all my funds into stock market. that was the worst decision of my life and i regret that decision until now.
