At the beginning of the Bitcoin I got 2 or 3 of them from some faucet.. Yeah.. My old PC with my wallet on it is crushed in a dump for years now, and OFC since BTC was really not a thing back then I did not save my passphrase anywhere.
I think about it everyday.. Fml.

Also Osiris, when the person buys when the price is at 1-X, and after 6 months the price is at 2-X, everybody sells to make a profit and avoid losing everything.

Anyone can have any reason to them that is valid to ctb as it is their life and their opinion.

If my life was fine I personally wouldn't ctb over missing an investment opportunity.

But then again. My life has never been fine so I long for it to be normal and fine. Not ridden with severe anxiety and depression that causes me to be crippled.

I don't mean to sound insensitive but I don't understand worrying over this. There are a million things you or I could have invested in over the years and gotten money from. But we didn't and that's just how it is. And it's not like it's all over? If this kind of thing interests you then why not look at what you have now and start researching and making investments. Money hasn't stopped and it won't - you can start now?

Are you talking about bitcoin or stocks? Sry don't really understand what you mean.

Oh and I forgot about altcoins. If we bought the right altcoin just at the beginning of 2020, we'd be rich man by now.

you would've sold it waaaay before 2021. hell, even before 2017, it's literally impossible to predict these surges in price. not to mention that there are many other expenses or luxuries that would've drained your wallet.

Don't beat yourself over it, it's like seeing a winning lottery number and saying, damn, if I had purchased a lottery ticked with this exact number at this exact time I would be rich by now.

You're right. Though this one makes me feel fairly dumb. It was obvious when it fell low in March this year that it would shoot back up. It feels sort of self destructive that I didn't do so. Also I guess it's slightly painful to see how little meritocracy means anything.

It all looks so easy in hindsight, but you try making the decision to sell at the right time when you've actually got money invested. Just going to cause more stress than its worth.

I have done some trading in the past - it did not go well. And that was when I was pretty level headed and analytical about things.

i only really started looking into crypto/stocks this august when a friend told me about chainlink, prior to that i didnt think much of it because.... well, i didnt even have any money up until 2019. if i had put a good sum of money into bitcoin in august i'd have tripled it which would be nice but by no means would i be rich or even well off. im doing alright with ethereum right now but im only up a few hundred dollars. what you have to realize is that the vast majority of people have made the same "mistake" of not buying certain stocks or crypto in mass. a lot of people are totally oblivious to what it all is, and of the people aware, most didnt buy enough or sold too early/late for it to make a significant impact. none of us know exactly whats going to happen, regardless of some going in blind and others being more educated. hell, bitcoin could skyrocket to over 100 thousand and people who sold now will feel stupid. or it could crash and people who held will want to lose their minds. i get beating yourself up over it but to me its not something worth wanting to die over, especially when there will be more opportunities for it in the future. for me, my life cant be fixed with money so its not something that keeps me up at night.

Remind that you'll pay taxes for investing, this or next year, the IRS will demand a disclosure of investment in cryptocurrency.

Crypto investment is bound for a downturn.

Wait until you see the CTB after the next time it crashes. On every run up there are always people who take on debt and CTB after. In the late 2017 run up there were even tales of people taking multiple years of student loans and putting them into it.

BTC is a volatile financial asset that mostly derives its value from the fact that people , particularly Chinese , need to launder money into the west. It's also being propped up because it's one of the few assets left that the big banks can easily manipulate and sucker people into. They love stuff like this because they can sucker in the retail traders and force them out of their positions through market manipulation

I think the appeal of bitcoin in particular is the fantasy of becoming rich without having to do anything at all and getting the feeling of being the luckiest winner on earth. Conventional investments have no romanticism to them.

Well, I don't see it as a legitimate reason, as much as I try being understanding of others. There are other ways to get rich out there, counting on such effortless method as Bitcoin is just delusional.

Invest in GameStop now :blarg:

To be more serious, of course it is sad knowing what one could have earned through Bitcoins. But no one has a crystal ball to see the future. One can smart invest in things today and be a millionaire in a few years, so I don't quite get the point to kill yourself over Bitcoins now either.

Knowing you have a wallet with coin in that you've lost access too is genuinely bad.
Having £600 of coin stolen from you in 2013 is even worse knowing some scumbags are millionaires because of you.

Who am I now if I have done everything right? In reality it's much easier to get everything wrong.
Knowing you have a wallet with coin in that you've lost access too is genuinely bad.
Having £600 of coin stolen from you in 2013 is even worse knowing some scumbags are millionaires because of you.
What's the chance of still keeping bitcoins from 2013 that have not been stolen or lost because of fraud and bankruptcy?
you would've sold it waaaay before 2021. hell, even before 2017, it's literally impossible to predict these surges in price. not to mention that there are many other expenses or luxuries that would've drained your wallet.

Don't beat yourself over it, it's like seeing a winning lottery number and saying, damn, if I had purchased a lottery ticked with this exact number at this exact time I would be rich by now.
I probably would have should them at $2000, which is about the time bitcoins became mainstream and people said it's price was already too high.

I knew of someone who supposedly had experienced a similar situation to your second point. Except it was much worse because I think the story went..they had purchased the same number every time and then switched it up on the last time (or it was that they had the numbers written down but did not get to the shop where they usually bought them) so the lottery numbers ended up matching what would be their usual ticket and they lost out.
Apparently it's caused bitterness and misery ever since..the person always ends up remembering what they lost by a fluke.

Cryptocurrencies are still falling and mining them now is not cost effective, as it used to because the surge in energy prices.
The fall in cryptocurrencies values is one of the reasons now, that there is an over supply of graphics cards because the demand to use them to mine cryptocurrencies, just isn't there anymore.
I wouldn't touch Telsa shares with a ten foot pole as their highly speculative, and are losing dominance in the electric car market fast to competitors.
Telsa is also losing billions through their factories not being productive enough, due to shortages in materials and components from supply chain disruptions in China.
