  I’d even say, im hindsight it was a mistake not to buy bitcoin back then.

    I strongly considered buying a single bitcoin for $700. I was irrational with money bit it seemed like a good idea. I decided I was being dumb with my money again and didnt go through with it.

    It would have been worth it. Even at $700 it would have been worth it.

      I went through the same thing, but I think it was multiple for 50. Total.

      However, it was college loan money and I thought that would be too irresponsible to spend 50 on something like that.

      Shit

      I was going to buy $100.00 worth back when it was 36 cents. I couldn’t figure out how to buy it and then my car broke down and that was that.

      People eventually buy Bitcoin at the price they deserve, they say

        I think that kind of goes for anything in a market economy. Client wants item that vendor has for sale, vendor and client negotiate a price.

    It was $2 because most people didn’t know what it was yet.

      It was even lower than 2€ earlier

  $2? I’d go back to 2012 or whatever and mine it using free electricity in grad school. Hell I’d use their cluster, call the slurm job something like “orbital_freq_prime_factors”

  And I’d break up with my college girlfriend

  And I’d bring my doctoral dissertation back in time so I didn’t have to write it

  Even if the bitcoins didn’t work out, maybe I could buy Pokémon cards for cheap and sell them
