Please forgive my cynicism.
I was offered bitcoins in I think 2010 when they were 50p each.
I was tempted to buy £200 worth but had been just lost £200 to a ponzi money scheme so decided against it!

I have seem recent reports saying they are now worth £2,500

Are these the same Bitcoins?
So would I be able to actually sell for cash or money in the bank?

Sorry to ask, but I see lots of people saying they are millionaires but don't think I have seen anyone with the actual money banked.

I mean, my 400 bitcoins would now be worth £1,000,000 and I could actually sell them for £1Million less commissions?

You gotta see I'm sceptical.
Please tell me I haven't made the biggest mistake of my life?

yeah lol did you read the pizza story guy? that is everyone dream, to have 10k bitcoin and hold them until now, but i think already everyone dumped at the 2013 ATH, it's very hard and very tempting to sell at those price when you have so many bitcoins, and it's easy now to say that if i would have hold i would have been rich, try to say this when the value is shit lol

I'm a bit confused.. so you're saying you regret not buying BTC when the price was low? Well, don't worry. You probably would've sold it anyways when it rose a few hundred. To get to here you would've either had to forget about them completely and just check now, or you would've made the decision NOT to sell like 10,000 times before it got here. And a bitcoin is a bitcoin.. regardless of where it's bought. Unless you buy from a scammer ;p

Yeah, they are the same bitcoins. The same ones you were offered 7 years ago  Wink
You can sell your bitcoins for cash money and transfer them to your bank (but why would you  Wink Wink).
Sadly, you have made a mistake but not the biggest. You still have time. Start investing on bitcoins Smiley

Your post isn't exactly clear. So do you actually have 200 bitcoins now or did you reject the offer and not buy any?

If you have 200 bitcoins now, congrats. You are made for life.

Yeah they should be same, and if you still have access to those BTC then well it's not difficult at all to sell it for a bank transfer. Best way of doing it would be selling it to someone trusted on localbitcoins. There are several other ways too for doing this which you can find easily with a google search. TBH I'm a little jealous that you have 400 BTC, you are really lucky if you still have access to them even after 7 years.

Yes, probably they were the same bitcoins and you would be rich by now. When someone has 200 bitcoins know, he is very, very rich. Even when money is not in the bank, they can be converted to cash in minutes...

But, how could you know? almost everybody would have sold them for a much lower profit.

That could be a lot of money make sure to used it properly. I myself was also too jealous of you luck really comes to a person once so better make used of it. I advice to sell it little by little or if you still belives that the price can go higher then  be more patient in waiting

Yes this is the same Bitcoin that you refused to invest in. You might actually regret not investing in Bitcoin back in 2010 for the rest of your life because when it goes higher, you will see that you could've been more than a potential millionaire.

You had missed the opportunity on being millionaire. As being said he refused on buying those bitcoin because he was being scammed by Ponzi which he decides not to buy those bitcoins. Yes, they are all the same on the coins have been offered on that year and they bitcoins as of now. You can easily cash-out those coins since there are lots of exchanges as of now and its not really a problem though. You just missed it.

You can sell your bitcoins for cash money and transfer them to your bank (but why would you  Wink Wink).
Sadly, you have made a mistake but not the biggest. You still have time. Start investing on bitcoins Smiley

He's right, you missed the biggest opportunity of your life, but don't make the same mistake twice, start buying some now.... When bitcoin is worth $100K in less than 10 years, you'll still be considered an early investor - just not as early as you could have been Wink

Why would you sell the BTC off for Dollar or say Euro?

Sounds like you didn't buy them, whoops!!
Well yeah,  you could've been a millionaire,  easily and I've no doubt that it was the one and
only bitcoin you were offered.   It sure as hell wasn't bitcoin cash or some other soundalike
altcoin, because I'm pretty sure altcoins were in their infancy back then.  Shoulda woulda coulda.
It's never too late to buy bitcoin, just fyi.  But watch out, as we're at its all time high and no one
knows where we're going...but a lot of us said the same thing last year when we were at $400.
Welcome back and sorry for your lost opportunity.   Not the end of the world though.

came in this thread expecting OP became a millionaire. Grin

Cheesy I think everyone would be a millionaire by now. I know many people who regret not getting in when price was extremely low but pizza guy story is probably one of the saddest.

Please, I am eager to read from you that you are lying. Please tell the world that you are lying but if you are not then it would be the biggest mistake of your life. Yes, Bitcoins are valuable now and you can actually sell it for cash or other things.

Nice tool to make you regret procrasting investing in BTC  Grin

http://whatifbitcoin.com/

However, there is still chance for you to correct your mistake. I won't force you to invest now but there are predictions from reputed sources that Bitcoin will hit $100,0000 in next few years so I would recommend you to spend more time and there is still a good opportunity.

Please forgive my cynicism.
I was offered bitcoins in I think 2010 when they were 50p each.
I was tempted to buy £200 worth but had been just lost £200 to a ponzi money scheme so decided against it!

I have seem recent reports saying they are now worth £2,500

Are these the same Bitcoins?
So would I be able to actually sell for cash or money in the bank?

Sorry to ask, but I see lots of people saying they are millionaires but don't think I have seen anyone with the actual money banked.

I mean, my 400 bitcoins would now be worth £1,000,000 and I could actually sell them for £1Million less commissions?

You gotta see I'm sceptical.
Please tell me I haven't made the biggest mistake of my life?

Yes, I believe so, because there is only one Bitcoin from 2010 until today. And BTC1 worth £2797 right now.
The question is, you don't have BTC400 right now? Then it is another yes, I am so sorry to tell you friend, but you have made the biggest mistake in your life. You should be a millionaire but you've threw away the opportunity long time ago.

Don't worry since many people missed the opportunity become rich people, mainly because they think bitcoin is scam, ponzi, will dead or simply didn't understand bitcoin. You made mistake, but bitcoin and few cryptocurrency have lots of potential and room to grow, so you shouldn't make same mistake again Cheesy
If you decide to invest in bitcoin or other cryptocurrency, don't forget to think about the risks such as volatile bitcoin price.

It's true, many other people have lost the opportunity as well and to complain about it now won't help anything. And besides those who rejected Bitcoin on that time there were many other people that didn't know about its existence and came only much time later to Crypto-Currency world. But it doesn't mean we can't make profit anymore, it's always time to start investing, better to buy Bitcoins now than regret about it in some years.
