I'm not a /biz/ oldfag, but I am a crypto oldfag. Before 2017, I hung out on darknet market forums, which was pretty cool because most people weren't looking to good rich, but rather figure out how to utilize crypto to transact drugs (or worse) without getting caught. Since most of those got shut down 2-3 years ago, /biz/ is the most similar place I have found to the OG darknet communities.

I dunno probably 300-400k. contrary to popular belief, most oldfags didn't get rich off BTC. the 2014-2015 bear market basically wiped crypto off map for a couple years and everyone either sold at a loss or held massive bags. the only people who got rich were the dumb or lucky ones.

I do have like 350 ETH though so I'm fairly happy with it. could always use more though.

there wasn't a /biz/ before crypto. back then we were on /g/ but the nerdy faggots complained to moot and he created /biz/ as a containment board for crypto. there was a period during the 2014-2015 bear market through when crypto was basically dead, and the board was basically the same threads every day.

in 2016 /biz/ was hands down the best place on the net to get the inside scope on which coins to buy. the retarded shillers hadn't moved in yet and basically every coin would mega pump as soon as it was listed on bittrex or poloneix. but then the discord channels and mega-high-supply shitcoins started to move in, and all the fun and profits went away. only presale buyers make money off the coins with 100billion circulating supply.

the people like me who made it through the bear market knew what we were doing so we didn't fall for the scams, and we bought up ETH while it was still in the $10-50 range. ETH gets shit on by corecucks now just as much as it did then.

technology wise it's a joke because the oracle problem is unsolvable, an external source can never bring trusted data into a closed system. also it's literally a handful of people led by sir gay vs. actual, professional teams. but /biz/'s shilling has managed to make it one of the best trading markets out there, even having a USDT market on binance so it's a staple and there will always be good liquidity.

Someone on biz sent me like 50 ethereum (i think) and I sent 10 to someone else in the thread immediately to pass it on and I lost the wallet because you know when you leave the browser tab open too long and you return to it and it refreshes? Yeah that happened and I lost the wallet because I didn't save the pv key and skipped the keystore. I have tried endlessly to search for the actual thread with no luck
Then after I lost it I posted in the thread about it and everyone called me a retard and then the guy I sent 10 to sent 5 back
Pretty sure I still have that wallet written down in a journal somewhere but it's in my parents attic and I cba getting it. Might even be more in the wallet Idk but I'm kind of leaving it just in case

Bought btc in 2011 when people on /b/ used to give it away for source on pics etc

Wish I could find the thread just for the nostalgia but I think it's totally lost forever, tried so many keywords

I remember looking at Eth at 1 to 13 dollars and saying "too late, it's already mooned" etc etc

MOONcoin was my first moon mission shitcoin on that dodgy exchange... what was it called? bleu trade I believe... if so they must have had a makeover. I still remember the days when they had a simple layout with a fucking pie chart.

For all you newfags listen up because this is how easy it used to be to make money in those days. MOONcoin literally went from 2 sats to I believe 11 or so? Anyway /biz/ gave everyone the heads up @ 2, 3 sats and the smart ones dumped @ 10, 11 sats for the normies to soak up our bags.
This sort of thing happened every week.
