dont worry, these people probably sold out at the first little pump

I was in these threads and called these people faggots (which they were) for believing in magic internet money. I will tell myself that they sold off at the first pump because the alternative is too psychologically taxing to process.

I traded 1100 bitcoins for a sheet of acid on silk road once.

How do you even process that? I feel I would just kill myself in 2021 if I did that. I briefly looked at BTC in 2011 when there were constant threads about it on /b/ when it hit (I think) $20(?) and decided that it was retarded and didn't want any part in it. I feel like if I had bought and sold at $50 or something, I would have killed myself when it hit 50k in 2021.

oof, imagine mining a WHOLE bitcoin a day and thinking that was weak back then and being called a fool by everyone that knows you and a complete pariah and then, 10 years later, you would be a king if you had held the whole time. Crazy.

>>54762828
Lmao you are never going to make it with that attitude. Which explains why over a decade later and countless more opportunities you never did.
P.s. I didn't sell early faggot.

How much can you actually make off mining if electricity usage is a non-issue?

There were faucets as well, so you could even have a few BitCoin for FREE back then.

I want to go back. Not because of magic internet tokens, but because of prime pussy.

Missing out on SHIB hurts me far more than BTC. All I needed was $2 investment into it in late 2020, and my life would be in a completely different, better path now.

SHIB is the only absolute shitcoin that actually made it. Other than if you consider doge a shitcoin of course.

I did close to the same at under $3 per BTC.

Yeah, Coinbase gave away $10 btc to students when they launched. Would be worth like 4k or something now.

I vividly remember seeing threads like this on /b/ early 2011 when I was in college, actively ignoring them in search for asian girls thread to coom to.
It hurts, but not that much since I know I would have sold as soon as it'd 2x anyway.
