Since we are talking about an impossible thing, knowing too well that back then I have no idea of what BTC is and what it will be worth as of today, I will still prefer to go for 100 BTC back in 2015, with the belief that there is no way I will spend that I will not think of saving a few out of that 100 till date or till last ATH, which could have also been worth something. 
 
The more the BTC I hold from that 2015 will start adding value, the more I will likely start paying attention to it, as learning about it and how interesting the project will be to me will determine if I will still have some of that 100 BTC left with me till now or if I will sell it all off or even end up losing access to the wallet as some other old holders have.

In 2015 Bitcoin's price at the end of the year was $430, thus 100 BTC will be worth 43,000. I am not sure I would have ever held those coins to date. Considering my age, priorities and level of financial education in 2015, I would have sold all of them and spent them on something else. It will be better for me to own one Bitcoin now because, with the level of financial enlightenment I have gathered, it will be better managed. The price of Bitcoin will keep appreciating, so no need to regret the past.  I usually see early adopters of Bitcoin as superhuman. It will take bravery and deep understanding to keep a strange currency for a long time believing that the price will keep appreciating.

Interesting! But it seems 1 BTC versus 100 BTC 9 years ago isn't fair. Everybody might risk going back to 2015 for a hundred coins if it's only a single coin that you will get today. So, for me, I'd also risk going back to 2015 to have 100 BTC rather than be guaranteed of only a single BTC now.

I think it's in 2017 when my BTC was already in double digits. Save for some spare change, everything's gone now. I started having some in 2016. So if I were to have 100 BTC in 2015, perhaps I'd be left with at least 5 BTC today.

[GreatArkansas]

I think it's a very obvious answer, I'll go back in time to 2015 for me and have 100 BTC. You will just do nothing, just hold, or just buy more. You have the advantage.
This is the reason why time is very important especially in Bitcoin, no one is expecting what will happen in the future so right now are just regretting and having delusions to go back from the past.

[Apocollapse]

1 BTC now.

People who said to go back 2015 and have 100 BTC are people who not trust the process.

We all are still trust in Bitcoin because we've learn Bitcoin for many years and already have a good financial knowledge, that's why we always try to accumulate Bitcoin as much as we can. Having 100 BTC in 2015 would make people to sold all the coins and do what they like, if they get asked about Bitcoin, I believe they will answer with the same thing, they will regret for not hold it.

How to make money and how to grow money are two different thing.

Have 1 BTC now?

The catch? If you go back to 2015 you have no knowledge of the future.

I will take the 1 BTC now. I dont want to take the risk and live based on assumptions in 2015. Knowing full well I may not be in the right position or area that the knowledge of Bitcoin will be given to me. I may be tempted to sell my Bitcoin. I may be around friends who dont know the value of it and sell the all of. When you reason everything you will understand that we may end up t 2024 and not even 1 BTC will be left in our hand.

Right now if you give me the 1 BTC  i will surely grow them up and increase the accumulation. I know i will be rich and not poor anymore.

going back to 2015 with zero knowledge of what the future holds is definitely a difficult spot to be. the possibility of holding Bitcoin from that point to now is almost slim and who knows if things will eventually fall out the way it has become at this point? I will rather have 1 BTC now than in the past.

The value of 1 BTC is enough to change my life forever if I decide to hold it or diversify it into whatever I choose to.  With the information I now have, I'm better positioned to hold BTC knowing that I understand what's going on in the market and that I know what might likely play out in the coming years. Those kind of things are not all that predictable 9 years ago which makes it more likely to sell your Bitcoin at that time compaired to now. 1 BTC is better than owning 100 BTC in the last 9 years.

Normally, 100k btc in 2015 would go a long way over time despite the fact that I wasn't very familiar with Bitcoin as at then and even though i am forced to sell, I think I'll still have some Bitcoin from the initial 100 Bitcoins I got back then left in my portfolio cause along the line I would've gathered some knowledge from maybe a Crypto expert or so concerning Bitcoin but let's be realistic 2015 is my past and I won't even want to go past to the past for even 100 BTC I'll rather focus on my future cause it's unachievable to even go back to my past, why can't I just grab the 1 BTC now and use it for the betterment of my future, I believe that what must be would be and since 100 BTC wasn't achievable by me back then since I got no knowledge about it, then it wasn't meant to be, the goal is to achieve 1 BTC and beyond now that the knowledge is there. So OP, bring the 1 BTC right now I'll really appreciate it, ain't going back to my past.

Having no knowledge about the future will make it a very difficult decision and if i was to go back in time and have 100 btc without having knowledge of the future i don’t think it will change anything and i must have sold them off after experiencing the earliest bull run and taken my profit. I don’t have an idea about what bitcoin will turn into in  future so i am likely to sell them so i will rather have 1 BTC now than go back to 2015 and own 100 BTC.

It is really not an easy choice but i just know i would be careless with 100 BTC and the possibility of them surviving till now is slim but if i have an  idea about what the price of bitcoin will be in future then it would be an easy pick.

With the habit that I have where I always don't want to spend everything I have. And I always keep a few things that I can use as memories. And that's why I would probably prefer to choose to have 100 BTC in 2015. And maybe I would spend most of those bitcoins. but I'm sure I will leave a minimum of 1 to 5 BTC. Because that has become my habit even in other things.

Unfortunately I didn't know much about bitcoin and crypto in those years. I'm just a little boy who still loves playing and doing assignments from school. I'm probably the biggest latecomer to Bitcoin out of everyone here. but I have a big desire to collect bitcoins for the long term. I don't do it on a large scale but I try to be consistent by collecting little by little. And honestly I don't know when I will reach 1 btc. Because I can't collect quickly.

[ethereumhunter]

Since we can not back to 2015, I prefer to have 1 BTC now and waiting for the new ATH to sell at that price. I don't want to imagine how if I can go back to that year because that will be impossible. I still have time to accumulate until I have 1 BTC or more so I prefer to do that although that will not easy for me. But I am sure that I can have that time because I still prepare some money to buy Bitcoin using DCA.

But if I can go back to 2015 using time machine () I don't mind if I don't have knowledge of the future because that is the risks for me. So rather than go back to 2015, it is better we keep trying to accumulate more and more Bitcoin, even if that is slowly to have 1 BTC.

[prp-e]

Well, the first time I personally have heard of bitcoin, was from a documentary about money and wealth, from BBC (in our native language) and it was around 2012 I guess.
Back then, I think bitcoin wasn't the future of wealth in public opinion, I remember that 16 years old me tried to mine some, but failed miserably 😂 but if I get back to past or find an easy-to-mine coin, I would be happy to mine as much as I can.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

I will rather go back to 2015 and grab the 100 BTC and simply wait till 2024 before selling it. The reason is because am already aware what the price of Bitcoin will be in the future, so I can go back to 2015.

That’s quite the catch. I basically need to trust my 2015 self to be smart and know better. But I would still choose to have 100 btc back then. Even if I don’t hold it 9 years later, I’m pretty sure I would still be able to make profits which could help me with any challenges that may come my way. Specifically with the pandemic. I think or at least hope that all the hardships are now past me and my life would be on a upward trajectory from now on. So I’d probably need the bitcoin the most back then.

I will rather hold 1 BTC today than 100 BTC in 2015 or anytime near the early years of it's creation, this is because in those days Bitcoin has not gained the reputation that it has today. In 2015 people were still still skeptical about it, not knowing whether it will survive in the future and increase in value. We have heard the story of one of the early holders of Bitcoin who bought pizzas with 10,000 Bitcoin, that story still amazes people because of what the value of Bitcoin is today. The reason why people hodl Bitcoin today is because of the increase in price that always reaches new ATH but in those days they didn't know about it's price will continue to increase.

even if I have no knowledge in 2015?yet that is 100 bitcoin and for me to hold it for sure I will never regret waiting for 9 years now.
though having 1 bitcoin now with this complete knowledge for sure I will have a best use for this amount .

I will rather go back to 2015 and grab the 100 BTC and simply wait till 2024 before selling it. The reason is because am already aware what the price of Bitcoin will be in the future, so I can go back to 2015.

looks like we have the same thoughts now and this is the best way to deal in this kind of question .

I choose now with 1 bitcoin,at least i know how to manage it.

[WovenStrands]

Going back in time is a way many people spend their present time. They do so in searching for the decisions and reasons that certain stories from the past hinged on.  In my gross assessment of such things.

There are no regrets for me, those died as the exponential growth happened in the various systems of money surrounding the bitcoin space.  If I continued to look into the ways any certain exchange or trade would improve my holdings in the present at least, my despair and/or sense of timing would be stuck there at least to speak or relate to me. 

The future is full of hope, just as it always has been, and especially now that we have the ability to create and exchange values in the way crypto currencies offer us.     

1 BTC NOW

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

I choose now with 1 bitcoin,at least i know how to manage it.

Despite that you know how to manage it now, you will either have to invest the Bitcoin into some other assets or keep holding it for more years so that the value will keep increasing. Let's say you accepts 1 Bitcoin and you decided to spend the money wisely, what other asset can you invest the money into and get up to 100 Bitcoin before 10 years interval is over?

Currently, the value of 1 Bitcoin is at $68k as of now and if you have this 1 Bitcoin now and invest it into another asset, can your profit in 10 years amount to 100 BTC? I doubt, but if you go back to 2015 to grab 100 BTC, you will only have to wait for 10 years to allow the value of each BTC grow to $68k each or even more.
