I'm not sure if this counts but I once bought an ounce of weed for 25 BTC. It was a good deal at the time.

Posted here before, today has been the worst trading day I've had in my life. Lost around 80k to TGT & COST puts, I was sure they were both gonna hit home runs with their earnings call and fully aped in. Worst was the TGT, since I got greedy and paid dearly for it (mooned and then it crashed like the fucking challenger)

Eh personally I wouldn't count it... If I counted all the BTC I spent on weed back in the day I think I'd be a millionaire. There's 0% chance I would've held it till today.

I was gifted 10 dollars worth of BTC from some dude on /b/ and I threw away the laptop without even thinking about it.

That was when BTC was .008c per coin.
