My friend told me about Btc when it was less that $90 per coin. It was in it's infancy and it was pretty much unknown. I was nervous about putting my hard earned cash in to it so shied away. Boy has it haunted me LOL

Anyone else have this non buyers remorse ?

I understand you pretty well. I had the chance to buy BTC when it was 300, and look at it now   Undecided Undecided But I think BTC has still place to grow, and maybe I should give it another shot  Undecided

Wow, that sucks. At least I heard about it when it was at around $800 and I already thought that was too high for me to buy any (I don't live in the US). I only managed to save a few bits and held on to them. It would be around a year now and boy the price has grown more than 10x (in my currency).

I can understand how you feel as I was in your shoes 3 years back. I was new to Bitcoin and was finding ways to earn Bitcoins.
The price of Bitcoin those days was fluctuating around $250 and I was afraid of investing any money in it since I didn't have any money then.
I wish I could have bought some BTC in those days I would have been a millionaire by now. Even though the regret is still there, I do find myself halfway through the boat as BTC is still in its early stages and we could buy it now than to regret 5 years later.

Even if you had bought back then, when the price was $90, you probably would have cashed out sometime before $10K anyway. The number of people who had bought bitcoin when the price was really low, and then hodl'd religiously until now (or simply forgot that they had bought bitcoin) is really really small. So I wouldn't feel bad if I were you.

Indeed back then the price of Bitcoin is too low compared today so if you invest or buy a Bitcoin the day it was low in price you are a very fortunate person as of today. But considering the possibility that its price today may increase more in the future we must not hesitate to buy or invest to Bitcoin.

Very bad thing to post...but sorry...

Dont let the past haunt you, and something bad happens... Try to jump on the boat right now, and HODL as much as you can, things of the past stay in the past, and you cant change nothing anymore. Just start jumping on the boat right now, buy piece by piece if you can, or mine, and you will be happy later. No need to have huge remorse, or feel bad why you didn't invest in given time. Just go on with it, and you will feel much better  Smiley Smiley

Bought $25 worth when it was around 80 cents. Had no idea what I was doing; just supporting my libertarian brethren. Sadly and painfully that wallet is long lost. Didn't think about bitcoin for a few years and then got in knowing what I was doing this time. It was in low hundreds by then. Bought and sold a lot since then.

i think it happened to nearly everyone and it will continue to happen. but i think it is time for us to think about things that are more than just some monetary gain because of the price rise.

bitcoin is a great technology, it is not perfect by any means but it still offers a lot and it is a great thing to use as a decentralized currency and benefit from all the things it offers.
and of course with bitcoin comes a long list of altcoins many of which have some pretty cool innovations that is worth looking into at least.

There is a FOMO brewing...

I always wonder why people bought such small amounts when the price was so low. You would think it would be better to buy $100 worth or something.

It all depends on what way you look at it if you see the boat as when bitcoin was virtually worthless or even a couple of years ago when it was under 300. If it continues to grow as it has we are all on the boat.

It is normal feeling. I heard and read 3-4 articles about BTC in 2011... And told about it to my friends but we did nothing. The price was very funny and a lost my chance at that time.

I missed opportunity to buy around 10 bitcoin when it was trading at $300 per coin, could have make above $100k right now with just $3k initial investment 2 and half years back. I am still regretting for not having that much gut to put $3k in bitcoin at that time.

Also I also regret for selling more than 5 bitcoin at less than $1k per coin before.

Yup, I did too but there's still a lot of room in the boat. I am just glad I hop in this year.

Except those who purchased over 1k coins when it was just less than a dollar worth , everyone missed the boat !
Every one lacked faith , futuristic look and courage to invest in such an invention that was just a blurry idea at that time for any one who tried to get involved with it . People were afraid to what might happen to their hard earned cash and didn't simply believe in the true potential of this coin ! And it's really more a matter of luck than of perspective because no one knew that bitcoin will make such huge achievements in such a short period of time .

Bitcoin is now considered as one of the top leading currencies and everyone is talking about how they missed it or how did they loose wallets or hard discs that contained thousand of bitcoins , and just imagining what would their lives be like if they didn't do the mistake in not believing in that invention , and lacked the sight to realize that it was the future !

Bitcoin was a one life time opportunity , and still is , and i don't think that it is too late to invest in it since lots of people think that it's got a long way ahead of it and it won't stop amazing the whole world or breaking new records !

Honestly, even if your friend had bought at $90 he wouldn't had kept it till today, probably would had sold it at $200 or at best when price had rose to $1000. The bitcoin boat is probably never ending(atleast so far) there is a chance you might still profit same amount that people who bought at $100 are profiting today, if you buy now.

for what's ?
regret will never solve the problem
better chase him from now on
because bitcoin will keep increasing its price to the end of the limit and that's when we should start thinking about altcoin to be invested
