Could've buy 8 for 800 dollars and later ended up buying 1 for 5k. Still hodling it 🤷‍♂️

[–]YousufAman[S] 48 points49 points  (2 children)

At least up are up 45 k

[–]Good_Extension_9642 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Could have been up 395k 🤪

[–]TheCyclist92 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I bought around £12 and sold around £80 when I was a student, good times!

But got back in properly 2018 and not been looking back with any regrets since

you got in at a good time

I remember talking of it hitting dollar parity and the buzz around that lol

[–]DexM23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats nice. Bought 6 at about $10 in 2011 wanted to sell some 2013 at 1k but the side input them was hacked. So anyway i would never ever had still 6 now

[–]Zackadeez 179 points180 points  (49 children)

$4000. But I only spent $400 😭

[–]YousufAman[S] 25 points26 points  (10 children)

Did you sell?

[–]Zackadeez 33 points34 points  (8 children)

Nope. It’s been sitting as emergency money. I have other coins I’m contemplating converting when/if the price dips on btc. I imagine if that happens then those of her ones will dip as well so it probably makes no difference

[–]RichAd6604 72 points73 points  (5 children)

Ah timing the market, surefire way to wealth

[–]Spartacus_Nakamoto 11 points12 points  (4 children)

I should really quit my job and start day trading...

[–]MKTekke 12 points13 points  (2 children)

Everyone that I met that become day trader had their up’s and down and eventually quit. You just can’t time the market and win always.

[–]Spartacus_Nakamoto 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Supposed to be a joke, but landed flat. I know better and buy and hold. If you think you can time the market you’d be a day trader and quit your job. Only 0.1% of people can pull it off. Don’t bother trying to time the market or market psychology will most likely fool you and rob you. Time in the market is how to win.

Sold a bit I took a 20k loan out a year ago on 20k btc I've and not I'm up 50k paid loan back.and kept .25 btc and rest alts just today

[–]SerenityCerulean 11 points12 points  (11 children)

Why cry now? Buy more.

[–]Zackadeez 5 points6 points  (10 children)

Oh I will. Fat tax return coming soon.

[–]SerenityCerulean 1 point2 points  (8 children)

Do you high income? I don’t see an issue to invest bitcoin at any time, whenever tax return is near or not.

[–]boweslightyear 6 points7 points  (2 children)

I’ve been DCA since August. Pretty late comparatively, but still. As soon as it all clicked as to what Bitcoin is, it became crystal clear to me why there is no other option but to buy every damn day.

[–]SerenityCerulean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the answer!

[–]ExcelMandarin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every damn hour.

[–]MeetingBrilliant 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Do u high income? Why the hell u think must of us stack at a break neck pace to aquire 0.25...0.33..0.75...hell no is probably the answer...bur this is money for the smart .rich or poor...as long as ur a low time preference individual...you'll be good stacking what ever u can, in relation to a melting ice cube. But some will always prefer the ice cube..it's the mindset that unites us...who gives a shit if he high incomes..or whatever

[–]silvano13 4 points5 points  (7 children)

mined 3 back in the early 2000s, have .02 left....sold the 3 at $200 because there was no way it was going higher....

[–]Wesinator2000 4 points5 points  (2 children)

I was in college when I gathered up my first few just before the first wave of legitimacy. There was this Grubhub-esque app, don’t remember the name exactly, like foodler or something, that took Bitcoin for payment. Probably had like 15-20 whole coins then, spent maybe $200 in total to get them, and they were then worth like cool grand. Thought I already won Bitcoin and was buying pizzas and gambling on satoshi dice until I kinda burned through them all. I’m now at a solid .2… which hurts so damn much. 20 BTC woulda been a cool mil today.

[–]Playful_Stand6721 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    So relatable I was sitting on 15k an only invest 1k was wanting to get a car around the same time smh😭

    [–]superomnia 6 points7 points  (7 children)

    Can’t really blame you. Cars are great ways to invest

    [–]Railionn 6 points7 points  (5 children)

    hmm? cars are one of the worse investments moneywise lol.

    [–]kdawgnmann 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    Yup I was a recent college grad in early 2017 and had no money. Dabbled in crypto but couldn't spend serious money on it.

    Upped my investing as time went on but the price wasn't nearly as good still. Still have seen huge growth on it but I often wish I'd graduated like a year earlier and had the bit of extra capital to spend when I got into crypto...

    [–]chrislee5150 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    My coworker dropped his entire savings in it. 75k at $3900. I remember the day. He sold up 900k on the last run up. Unreal

    [–]Rydog_78 3 points4 points  (1 child)

    So you basically bought .1BTC. If BTC reaches say 1 million, you would’ve made 100K on your $400 investment. A pretty incredible return.

    [–]Kushie1 29 points30 points  (9 children)

    It's still buyable, DCA

    [–]Mr_MatF 1 point2 points  (8 children)

    still broke, not super, but not 50k buyable XD

    [–]ruach137 18 points19 points  (6 children)

    You don’t have to buy a whole coin. You can buy $5 if you want

    [–]Mr_MatF 2 points3 points  (4 children)

    that I did, yet I was thinking about some serious investment

    [–]TMI-nternets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    If you want to own 50k worth of bitcoin, buying $5 it many times over is better than buying $50k of bitcoin all at once.

    DCA weekly, monthly or whatever. Anything else is excuses.

    [–]Limp-Efficiency-159 4 points5 points  (1 child)

    [–]catinterpreter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

    I vaguely remember it seemingly being impossible to buy here in Australia very early on, and repeatedly gave up on the idea.

    [–]Plane-Chard-6043 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    No one believed in it in the past, and now they can't afford it if they want to.

    [–]guanacooo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    BTC is always buyable, think of it in terms of how the dollars that you convert to BTC will be worth more in the future vs not buying the BTC. It's not about buying .05BTC or 10BTC its about moving fiat to BTC for future wealth.

    [–]Mediocre_Horror_194 5 points6 points  (3 children)

    Re-testing those numbers with all the institutional money flowing in just seems absurd imo. I think we need a massive economic crash otherwise it’s tough

    [–]End_of_capitalism 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    Won’t be long before the next crash. Seems to happen every decade or two. Probably will be more prevalent as the US and the rest of the western world continue to lose their global standing. Roughly 20% of the US GDP is from Fire (finance, insurance, real estate, rental, leasing). Meaning that 20% of our GDP is based on speculation lmao.

    [–]Mediocre_Horror_194 4 points5 points  (1 child)

    It’s difficult to predict. A lot of currencies are built on the back of the usd. Going to be tough to crack.

    [–]raindownthunda 6 points7 points  (0 children)

    I bought at 17k and sold it all at 11k. Tax write offs on losses for a few years to remind me how dumb I was.

    [–]4sh2Me0wth 9 points10 points  (0 children)

    I still have bitcoin from 2012 because Holland wasn’t gonna ship LSD and DMT to the US. When the price went from 150-850 i knew it was best forgotten about. Almost sold when it was at 12k. Forgot about it for several more years. I bet holland will ship them thangs now

    [–]ExcitementThen8060 6 points7 points  (0 children)

    ....? At 7k, 9k, 10k, 12k, 15k, 20k, 22k, 32k, and most recently at 70k (CAD).

    I don't give a flying duck what BTC hits this cycle, or next cycle. I am curious how worthless fiat will be by 2040 though.

    [–]swaggercatr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    I bought in last bull cycle and after that I have been DCA since last year. So in almost about 50% profit.

    [–]BeneficialTie1367 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    That's gonna be me after I buy it when it reaches 25k again.

    [–]konkord36 0 points1 point  (4 children)

    No guarantees, but it definitely could one day. We did see 14k from a 60k peak. We also saw btc go from 30k to 3k. It’s all possible, but doesn’t necessarily mean it’ll happen. Continue to DCA

    [–]Lowmax2 2 points3 points  (2 children)

    One thing I've learned in 2022 is that it can always go lower than you think.

    [–]konkord36 2 points3 points  (1 child)

    Absolutely, as history has shown many times. But one thing I’ve learned to live by is is that nothing is guaranteed. Are pull backs guaranteed? Yes. Will it meet your expectations of pull back? Maybe. If not, you risk waiting and missing the train, so DCA is your guarantee to being in.

    [–]Artorias_the_hollow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Personally, I think that the volatility of Bitcoin will only diminish as it gets more and more mainstream. The days of 10x gains and 90x losses could soon be gone forever.

    I bought at 3k 6k 10k 15k 20k 25k 30k 40k. Haven’t bought higher then 40k yet but key word is yet. Bitcoin is not for people without patience and want to get rich quick

    I give you permission to do it when it reaches 500k

    [–]Archiive 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    The dumbest money i ever spent was when the market crashed at the start of 2020.

    I was on my way home from work and decided to check the price of Bitcoin, turns out it dropped below 4k. It literally lasted for less than a few min, and then it was back to almost 5k again. But at the time, all i saw was Bitcoin taking a nose dive. I never spent that much money that quickly before, didn't even think about it, which was incredibly fucking idiotic, it could have kept going to zero and I would have thrown away all the money I had at the time. Dumbest fucking money I ever spent. It turned out to be the best investment I ever made, though.

    Still have it, and i will until the day i pay for rent with it.

    Nailed it. Well done lads, but 50k is small time, 1 sat = 1 dollar, that’s what I’m waiting for. I’ve already seen it in a vision, I’m in my 60s I’ve long forgotten about my target of 1 sat = 1 dollar, my life has been full of experiences price targets are something I no longer think about.

    And there it is, a notification on my apple implant, across my retina I see, 1 sat = 1 bitcoin! I remember my juvenile price target and laugh.

    [–]ClimbingInternet 4 points5 points  (5 children)

        Bought at 20K and I’ve DCA’d all the way up. I’ve been slowing down now though

        [–]legixs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Feels like I actually bought that fucking bottom. 15347 $ could be considered actual bottom...

        Thats like a stock going from $15 to $52. Not life changing.

        [–]yourfavoritepenguin7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Yeah that’s cool but you can also now buy at 50K before the price reaches 500K…

        Now buying at 50K seems kinda nice doesn’t it?

        Once you understand Bitcoin it won't matter your entry point

        [–]WebIcy6156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Everyone shits on YouTubers but they were all the ones I follow said to buy sub 20k.

        [–]ladder2thesun01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        It was at $9k when I used my $100 birthday card money to buy it.

        [–]Expectations1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        I redrew my mortgage to buy some more bitcoin at 16k

        [–]BlazingCrypto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Still buying at 50k

        [–]Inevitable_Silver_13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        I bought at like 38k and I still feel this way.

        [–]Ktime2022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        This is me lol 😂 4btc for 64k

        [–]Mother_Effect420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        I wonder what's the percentage of people who bought when jt was down to 30 last time because most probably could only afford to have 400 -2k usd worth and so the profit isn't enough to want to brag on reddit or anything so what's the hype about?
