I think not really that bad because he had been collecting bitcoin from 2015 when we know that bitcoin that time is cheaper than today's market. So I guess that even during the halving when sell the btc still that was a big profit for him. However, he still regret it because of the halving where he had been luckier if he sell the btc he had during the bullish trend especially at the current market for bitcoin and other cryptocurrency.
life there is no satisfaction, does it look human?
You are right that I was very lucky, moreover I got it without spending a penny.
history remains history, it will be a beautiful story for the rest of my life. dreams come true, it really does exist.
Again, IMHO, there is a 'chance' that we are still in the early adoption stage. Say someone sells the crap out of the 'attic' on eBay or 'attic mining' and gets as much
frigging dust as they can at this point in time of 2020. Say they manage through garage sales/estate sales/selling crap they otherwise will die with. Doing such, for
fun, like mining in a bit by bit manner, could really pay off yet. I mean what if the pundits and bulls of Bitcoin are correct and in say 5 years you are looking
at $500,000.00 per Bitcoin. It is not like Bitcoin in the past depending on 'adoption' has not gone up 5x,8x,16x before.
at that price your $10,000.00 investment at say an average cost of $20,000.00 would be about 1/2 a Bitcoin. or $250,000.00 if you went into HODL mode.
So we may have been lucky and myself in at 2013....but there is only so much 'virtual land' to go around to base worth on into the blockchain, so it could
happen. so again, I should do this, newbies should do this, etc. Worse that happens is you have a bit of light fun dumping stuff for BTC dust on eBay and
get rid of the clutter... In the long term though you could maybe be still as lucky as someone like me that got into BTC/Crypto in 2013.
The main thing is to accumulate and HODL for next 5-10 years or so. In 'whatever' the manner, just in case the above is true.
