I first heard about bitcoin early in 2013, an online friend was promoting it and I asked him about it a little, did not seriously consider it or buy in at the time and was merely a "small talk", Heard about it again in 2016 rise and this time I joined in, Missed allot of profit for not getting in when it was VERY cheap by today's standards.
Same is the case with me. I have noticed that in most of case, our friends are those who tells us about bitcoin. May be because friends discuss about making money with each other and make plans together of being rich.
Since I am a student, I was studying. My friend told me about the bitcoin. At first I thought he was joking when he told me that you can be a millionaire with a bitcoin. I didn't take it seriously. After some times had I had enough money, I just mustered up the courage and made a mind of gambling and taking the risk.
I invested in bitcoin, held it for 4 years . Recently I sold the bitcoin to a trader for the three times to which I have bought. I earned a lot. Now I want to risk more just because of the profit I got from this.
