Earli adopters are the bigest winners in Bitcoin story. At least I think so.

How many of the early adopters held on through thick and thin? And how many bought at $10 and then sold at $200 thinking, wow I've made a 20-fold return?

Most of the people who own bitcoin now bought AFTER the 2013/14 bubble. The early adopter people (apart from Satoshi) cashed out long ago.

Ealier adopters are the luckiest because the price right now is very good. Bitcoin price back at 2011 is just $1 a piece. My goodness! Thats so much profit on that. Well, they took the risk. They took the reward. Im just frustrated because bitcoin is just introduce to me way back at 2015. I didnt know that this will happen to bitcoin. The price that time is just $200-$300.

There is no doubt that the early adopters are enjoying their lives right now, since the bitcoin price has gone up really high from what it used to be back when it started, but there is no way we could be sure that those who adopted the bitcoin were sure that it will become this huge or they have even saved every single bitcoin they had and haven’t spent it anything from it.

Every time bitcoin goes on a bull run the bitcoin forums and Reddit go bonkers with memes and pumpers, but i really think that the excitement is legitimate, we early adopters can see how important and beneficial bitcoin can be to the internet and so get excited about it. To me bitcoin is just so obviously the future, but when i like tell friends and family they are just like..... yeah ok. Cheesy

I have refrained from encouraging them to buy some as i know how volatile bitcoin can be, and at the minute i dont think its good to buy on a run but i really think that so many people are going to wish they had listened in 5-10 years from now.

I wish i was an early adopter too. Sad

I could have bought a few bitcoins when the price was $300 back in 2015 and sell them now. Undecided

I didn`t have any money to buy btc before 2015.

The excitement is definitely real, and it's palpable. That phrase "early adopters" is sort of misleading though. I think all of us who own bitcoin now are pretty much early adopters. The people who were in it before 2013 are the reeeally early ones. But think of how many people have never owned any coin. Most of the world has not--so we're still in it pretty early.

It's a very cool vibe right now.

I agree, i think i remember Andreas Antonopoulos saying anyone in from 2014 were early adopters and anyone in before that were the lunatic fringe, lol Shocked

I also think that its a matter of perspective, in 2030 if bitcoin is worth $100,000 and used by most people world wide then i think we will all have a different view on who was an early adopter. Tongue

I face the same response when I tell people about bitcoin, they just think yeah whatever enjoy your little hobby. It is not the easiest thing to explain to somebody without getting too enthusiastic.

At this moment it's still good to listen what this people have to say cause they know the best.

As an early Bitcoin adopter I say the game has just begun, and I say also 33/33/33 diversification needs to be done between BTC/ETH/XMR Wink

But unfortunately this excitement is exclusive of bitcoiners. Perhaps we could see the bitcoin price achieving a historic level of $10,000 tomorrow but ordinary people still would remain indifferent to this event.

To be honest, I am not seeing a consistent and gradual adoption as I have been expecting for some years, although it is undoubted that there are some new bitcoiners every day, but very far from a massive adoption.

What i really do hate is when you encourage them to used bitcoin they act like ah ok then when they so how much you were earning and how you do use it for an ease purchases they then started to get interested and expect that they could also easily earn amounts but whe you do teach them ways to earn they go back to ah ok lol

It is incredibly likely that either Bitcoin or some technology related to it is going to be the future, what matters now is whether or not we're able to figure out how to get it to that point and actually have people using it for most of what they do.

Buying now likely isn't a bad idea, but again, it all comes down to the numbers game and how the markets will react to it all.

My first time buying bitcoin was last 2014, bitcoin was one fourths or 25% of the current price right now. But after buying I was nervous to lost my investment after earning 10$ i cashed out all of my bitcoins. It was a pity that right now its x4 of the price I bought before, if I only hold my bitcoins then I have harvested a larger amount by now.

The newcomers and early adopters are welcome to bitcoin, its not too late to purchase any amount that fits their wallet. Bitcoin will still go up and they will still enjoy the benefits sooner or later.

Wish i was one of those guys who bought coins for 10$. But barely got into this 2 months ago. I remember reading about BTC in 2013 it was already over 1000$ and it took my atention but then the price went down and I thought it was all over

It is the same with me as I can't just tell others to buy in fear if they ever lost their funds but when I see the price going up I regret that why didn't I my self put more money to buy more cheap bitcoins.
And you know that when we are talking about good profit you'll going to need at least a couple hundreds of bitcoins so when trading after $200 rise you could actually say that you really got a nice profit.

Massive price drop coming...

I think is never too late to buy bitcoins, even for anybody that miss the boat in the early day of bitcoin history. For sure, I will be excited if I was the men who bought the pizza for 10000 bitcoins and I hold them right now.

The brain get excited to see the number claim, claim Wink

Yeah bitcoin still not too late for early adopters that i think bitcoin is still in the beginning and i think the price right now is not a good iea to buy right now because the price is too high and i think we will still seen that the price will decrease after this year.. this is just my thought so for those who are early adopters still not too late and wait to see for low price before you buy..

Nobody can predict 100% what can happen in the future and nobody predicted that bitcoin could reach until this point,it is not too late now to buy bitcoin, bitcoin still on the top, but i must admit if I joined bitcoin earlier and save more coin, I will see more money to my account now, but bitcoin and crypto currencies still have a long journey and it is still a bright future to invest in bitcoin and other crypto

After early adopters the masses come along so it is still time to buy and profit.

Ahah, why should think of how gains obtained by those who buy first appeared when the bitcoin..?? . I've heard and saw that most of that has its beginnings bitcoin turns even lost most of the bitcoin later due to some causes of erratic. Although we can still get a good profit in the future, since the changes in prices that are truly unique and bitcoin is very fun.And in the future I have confidence that growth will progressively improved and bitcoin gives the best thing in our lives
