Nope this is not all we have because aside from digital assets we have other physical assets such as house and cars ,but you are right about us being witness to the progress of cryptocurrency not like those who invest and trust crypto specially bitcoin wayback 10 years ago

This is what we all need now,being a supporter and bitcoin holder let us boost each other to continue help the crypto community to progress and stop spreading Fud and Lies about this digital currency

It's an one-sided version of the story and doesn't really reflect on what the community thinks. What made you think that the people who had invested back in 2009, don't have any technical knowledge?? I would rather say, those people were actually more knowledgeable about blockchain than all newbies combined here! They are the ones who actually believed in the technology and not though much about the pricing of it.

Rather, those who have invested in 2017, a majority of them are speculators who don't have any technical knowledge. Majority of them had invested in bitcoin because they wanted to make money and didn't care much about the technology.

Personally, I got involved after I heard about Bitcoin's bull run. I knew about it but I was afraid to get into because It was something unknown to me in terms of how it works.
After I heard about it, I managed to find a job in the cryptocurrency industry remotely. So this is the main reason to prompt me stay.

Despite making so many mistakes because I really believe in this technology and decentralized money and how it can really help people, I have decided to not give up on doing well with Bitcoin and crypto in general as I want to be a role model for future generations and my family to learn more and more about it. I am going to open today two eth wallets for my sister and for my son and going to show my sister how to earn an extra income trading crypto. Although I have kind of been a failure the mistakes I have made I can at least teach others not to make the same ones. This way if others benefit from not making the same mistakes I made on my crypto and Bitcoin journey so far, I will feel vindicated that my suffering wasn't for nothing.

Im not sure people in 2009 thought of Bitcoin as an "investment"
rather they say the technology for what it was and what it was
designed to do, a peer-to-peer payment system independent of
banks or governments and controlled by no central authority.

They didn't see it as a risk, they saw the potential and benefits
a lot of them would have conversed with Satoshi on this forum
and others so they had first hand insights into the technology,
they got involved by building the tech, mining and using BTC

Many people in the last 2 to 3 years have taken the risk of treating
bitcoin as an investment and not everyone has the same mindset
because a lot of people "invested" at the wrong time:
November 2017 - January 2018.

Quote
Let's be optimistic about our digital assets because its all we have.

well yes in a way optimism in crypto is really all we have because
we cannot read the future but we can stay positive, keep backing
the technology and support each other as this forum does.

I have a lot of reason to stay here at cryptocurrency and I don't think any reason to leave loke what other see so they already leave crypto. I stay here because I want to still earn money because I still see any chance the market will recover and become better compared to the last few years. But people choice if they are going to stay or to  leave here in cryptocurrency.

Yes, I have reasons to stay and invest in bitcoin when its price has dropped. Now we have a good opportunity to replenish stocks, since there will be a general adoption of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general, in the near future and most of the world's population will use them. In the meantime, I want to be at the origin of development and be a direct participant in history.

No one could actually invest (fiat) in BTC back in 2009 because there is no trading in that time and price of 1 BTC was 0$. Next year (2010) highest price of BTC was only 0.39$, so anyone who invest 100$ can buy 256 BTC worth today 870 000$, and more then a year ago they are worth 5 120 000$.

First investment in BTC have actually been through mining, people have invested the power of their computers and some electricity, and for that they were rewarded with 50 BTC per block. So we can say they did not invest big money, but mostly their time, knowledge and enthusiasm to create new technology.

There is no doubt that for some of them this technology also brought great wealth, but they are the first involved, and they are the reason we have BTC today.

My main reason why I need to stay in bitcoin is I want to become millionaire or to have a lot of money. That's only reason why I am still here and I hold most of my bitcoin because I know somewhere in this year or maybe next year the price of bitcoin will rise again up to $20000.

Suppose, you should include your purpose why you need to become a millionaire. Maybe it can inspired others who will read your post.  Smiley

I stay here because I have a dream to create a foundation for unfortunate children most specially the orphans. I am wishing before and now that one day cryptocurrency can make my dream come true. I will remain hopeful despite of insufficient budget.

It cuts both ways

I mean we saw bull runs but we also experienced bear rushes too, and right now we are following one of those. As they say, once bitten twice shy. Apart from that, you can't actually say that the early adopters had taken really great risks. Yes, they had patience to wait (I refer to those who actually managed to wait that long, at least till 2017 tops), but their financial involvement in Bitcoin was not great as they received most of their stashes basically for free (e.g. via CPU or GPU mining)

I'll stay because I have some goals and I believe in bitcoin, many of us thinks that bitcoin can't overcome some problems when it comes to its price but despite of it I know bitcoin can still recover. I lose some money in bitcoin but it won't stop me because I want to achieve that specific goal.

The reason why I need to stay in bitcoin cause I want to give a brighter future for my family, bitcoin give me opportunity to earned that's why I workhard even I know the value now is dip, I believe in bitcoin that one day it will increase and give me brighter future for my family.

Remember that bitcoin already stand still over 9 years and no one ever expect bitcoin able survive until now.

So how it still survive ?

I have plenty of reasons why i still believe in bitcoin but one of them is i could believe someday downtrend will change turn back to uptrend but indeed we need more patient to see it but i will always be looking forward to see further movement whether it will be good or even bad but i will accept to myself whatever the results of bitcoin development

Currently, is surest coin in market is bitcoin and Ripple. I should have amass bitcoin even while it was tanking rather than buying some useless ICO and altcoins that would later become a walking corpse like their father "Fiat". I have a high hope about the future of bitcoin. I encourage whosoever has money to buy bitcoin and hold, for now, am building my offline business.

Probably most people do not want to accept Bitcoin, they are afraid. The risk is great and they are worried about its future. But those who are willing to take risks can make profit. When the price was 20k, everyone was displeased that why they could not invest when price was cheaper. So? I guess it is time to cling more tightly, not to stay.

The big guys in this market still decides to sell coins that's one hell of a bummer but then a good reason so stay too because if one day they suddenly think of stopping to sell then the price might just go up as quick as possible. You would have top be here when that happen. But another good reason is that BTC is cheaper than last year so you can afford to buy now than buying while the price is $19k.

The reason why I'm still here is, even now I can still get a few $ from bitcoin, even though it is far from expectations and goals last year, and this is all I can do to spare my time. And also, while im staying, it keeps me to be informed about blockchain and crypto
