Yeah, it's crazy how things change, isn't it? I bet that person is kicking themselves now! It's a good reminder to keep an open mind and not dismiss new ideas too quickly.

It's wild to look back and see how far Bitcoin has come. I remember those early days too. It's inspiring to think about the potential for the future. Here's to hoping for continued growth and adoption!


You know I some point I wonder how some people come in to Bitcoin with short sighted and failing to see the true potentials that Bitcoin holds hence the reason to panic on seeing a decline  and sell too soon when they meant to be accumulating, anyone coming in to Bitcoin should look beyond present headlines perhaps Bitcoin has proven beyond every reasonable doubt that even when it declines it has the the potential recover and even go more higher than it's previous highs but yeah it all amount to how much we tend to believe and convinced enough personally and our risk tolerance level which differs different.
People do really love on laughing into those people or old timers do able to sell off their coins into those early years on which without even trying out to think or trying out to put up their shoes into those people
then there's no way that you cant be able to think that Bitcoin would really be able to last up this long or something that do talks about higher price. This is why its really that something laughable when you do
saw them having thousands of Bitcoin but able to sell into thousands bucks on just having that a dollar price or value of it. Even into those times or moment that you are on their foot then you will really be thinking on selling up your coins too on which we do secure our profits on which it will really be our main priority. This is why its not really that shocking that they will really be having those actions because they do really tend to secure on what needed up to be secure so that they wont regret on missing out those profits. Instead on being happy on where they do end up but come to think that these early adopters are ones of the reason on why this market did make out such recognition and adoption. Although not all factors will really be just that focusing into this one but at least we do really know that their existence are really that significant.

It's no time to laugh at people like these - it's time not to become like them and get more BTC, that's what I say and believe in  Tongue

If a person goes for BTC knowing well what it stands for and how it behaves during its cycles, that person will never have weak hands put onto BTC.
It's like an axiom that BTC will prevail, and it's a question of time when more people will understand it and become interested more and more in it.

This is just a picture and there is a high chance that this guy got into Bitcoin soon enough, maybe not during this tweet but even a year after this is tweet he got into Bitcoin and maintained consistency he would be good.

One thing I have come to discover and I want you to understand is that the next best time is now. Being skeptical about Bitcoin from the time you heard it isn't a bad thing, infact I encourage everyone not to go head first into something because many people are backing it especially in finance.
You could be right on this. It’s likely possible that the said user in Tweet did manage to get into Bitcoin. Haven’t to have discovered it at so early in time and followed up on the price or market movements simply means, the user had enough time to be skeptical on the idea and check his interest. His sure to have seen price pump after that dump to realize that, he could have had a much better entry when it dumped.

One thing is for sure here, Bitcoin was only beginning to develop a market structure and people were just getting to know and study it yet. Now, a lot of users have learnt from the mistakes of others while, getting to learn from personal experiences as well.

One of the things I love about bitcoin is how it proved most people around the world wrong
I came across this picture of someone who called Bitcoin a mess back in 2011, and it made me laugh
I really want to see his face now when he finds out that 1 of the mess is worth 80 thousand dollars
I'm really pained that I didn't invest in Bitcoin sooner, but I'm glad that I'm here now

Cheers to better days ahead for Bitcoin
And to prove more skeptic wrong
The thing is there a person's who are not patient enough when it comes to long term investment plan so as of then many people took Bitcoin as a joke and looked at it as one of those big talk that many companies will usually say and convince people to come and invest in their companies so only people who where futuristic enough to see the future and the potential that Bitcoin holds where able to invest in a long term project like Bitcoin so you see that man who posted this picture will be regretting big time by now and he will continue to complain as the price of Bitcoin is expected to surpass $100,000 by next year with the current upward movement of Bitcoin

I don’t blame people in this category during the early times, it’s more better you gain full knowledge about bitcoin then decide what’s next either invest or ignore. I’m not against other altcoins rather I only look forward to potential coins, looking down on bitcoin is not a new thing even in modern days so the person is free to say whatever they think. I will consider ignorance as the major hinderance because late adopters would have gotten much if they had the opportunity to buy bitcoin during the start. I love how bitcoin growth has come so far to an extend haters still don’t believe including business/investment influencers against bitcoin just imagine the fans reaction towards the market.

Must of people who criticized BTC in the past had already regretted their actions, and some of them buy Bitcoin when the price start to move because they will not stay to miss out better opportunities in the future because they criticized it and it keeps proving them wrong by moving further above their expectations.
They should regret it because when they criticized BTC in the past, they knew very well that the future of Bitcoin was definitely going to be good. They can then play Bitcoin after understanding everything nicely. I think it's their failure. I think it's natural to regret seeing the skyrocketing price of BTC now that they couldn't invest because of their failure.

But imagine those who invested in 2022 and 2023 when the price of Bitcoin fall, and now it's a good time to realize how far their investments have come from holding a Bitcoin trust. I think there is no point in criticizing critics seeing that those who are investing in Bitcoin and continue to invest will definitely get something out of it. Those who haven't invested in Bitcoin will have more regrets ahead than wait sees.

HODL - BTC

When I was introduced to Bitcoin, I didn't believe in it either. I thought it was already suspiciously expensive (when the price was in the range of hundreds of dollars), and I didn't believe something purely digital could be considered real money and have real value. And that was years later than the guy in the tweet. It's understandable that it was a different time when it wasn't easy to believe in something so different from the rest of money and the rest of the asset market as well. What's important is to learn from mistakes. Both our own and those of others.
That's how we regret what happened in the past... mistakes become valuable lessons for the future where we consider prices expensive at the time and see prices now that are too cheap...

We see that the price of $30K is already expensive sometimes even buying bitcoin is still with doubts, after a high surge in more than 1 year it was realized that bitcoin became a valuable asset than anything else... so now realize that digital currency is an important asset for us.

ETFs are still buying bitcoin every day, they don't seem to care about the price and they are buying billions of dollars of bitcoin.  Is it good advice to say that this is not the time to buy and to wait for the bear season to come? Does this cycle always repeat itself? What can we rely on to be sure of this? Instead, why not use the DCA strategy if we intend to invest in bitcoin for the long term?

Of course, anyone who sold bitcoin cheaply in the past would regret it and if we were in their shoes, we would regret it as much as they do now. I even believe you would have called bitcoin a scam if someone introduced bitcoin to you 10 years ago. Because you believe that the price of bitcoin can increase to hundreds of thousands of dollars in the future but you also dare not buy bitcoin at $80k, you certainly would never buy bitcoin if it was priced at $1 many years ago.
You are right if consider another scenario where the cycle won't repeat then not buying now can be a big mistake but to be honest do you think this scenario will take place? I don't think even if this time BTC made ATH before the halving and meme coin hype came before the ETH and ALT coin hype and things are not really following the pattern as they used to follow in the last 4 halvings. But that's a big if in my sight.

We can't just rely on these ETFs but there are whales too, some whales are more than 10 year old and now they are moving their BTC just to sell them this surely won't make a big dump like in past it used to but something big will happen that will dump the market.

For the long term like if you are making an investment for next halving then buying at CMP is not a bad idea as profit will be made at last.

The fact still remain that many people are still doubting bitcoin even as it may have reached 89k plus. We should understand that no matter how hard you try to convince most people to invest in bitcoin, they will still not take it seriously because they don't have thesame dream as you. No time is to late to invest in bitcoin. Even if you Start today, you don't have anything to regret because bitcoin will still touch more hight.

Cheers to better days ahead for Bitcoin
And to prove more skeptic wrong
You can only Cheer when you have enough stash in your portfolio. If you don't Invest in bitcoin you are almost thesame with those that are sceptical without investment.

These are not the people alone to be regretting not investing on bitcoin as at then, that is even if they were able to remember that they once said something like this, but if they actually do, it will be serious pain on them because they would have realized a lot of things they have already missed out, though coming in by now is never too late, but it will only take them the required time of doing so, now they are all seeing that bitcoin is more than their imaginations.

When I was watching the HBO documentary on bitcoin the other day, or whatever you want to call it, they were showing some times in the past where bitcoin has dropped and everyone was panicking or saying "see I told you so" and other things like that, just brought such a smile to my face as we currently sit here hovering around all time highs that are far more than any of them ever expected, or at least expected this early.

It was difficult to hold in the past, the majority were in a more emotional approach with Bitcoin because it is unknown where it was heading. I cannot blame those early adopters and then sold later because the majority of us in here could have done the same thing. How about laszlo? he has sold 10k Bitcoins for a pizza. But you see the contribution that he's done there, if it's not for him, then who could have done the same thing with courage to do that transaction?

I remember when I first got to know Bitcoin, I never made a negative comment but just pushed it aside, then a few years later I started to dig in.
Maybe the guy in the picture changed his mind later and got into it because the date is very old, it is very likely that he decided to buy Bitcoin after a few halvings.

The fact is that many of the early investors didn't hold onto the assets that they bought in the early days. So even though people who didn't buy Bitcoin and called it names would regret it, those who did repurchase Bitcoin then must have sold it way earlier than where we are today because we as humans can't have that much patience unless we are away from something. Then we remember later that we had it and we manage to recover it.

I can guarantee you that the people who got Bitcoin until today that they bought back in the day are those who either lost access to their wallets and recovered it later or those who bought some and abandoned it, never stayed active in the market and kept looking at the price, because if you keep looking at the price, it tends to tempt you to sell when you are getting good returns.

Someone spending $100 on Bitcoin and then realizes they are getting $2,000 for it would gladly take it without thinking about its future possibilities.

Nah I don't think that it would even change a thing, even if he does invest in Bitcoin at that time, I don't think that he could endure it or hold it till now, a price drop already proves that he couldn't hold it for long term.

Since it'll take time for bitcoin price to increase, you are right. Such people won't hold for that long, they'll probably not stand the multiple bearish seasons that it took Bitcoin to get here.

Added to the fact that he doesn't believe bitcoin's growth potentials to an extent of calling it a mess. His only disadvantage to the ecosystem would be the people who abided by his shady talks on the technology.

That guy should be the one in a mess now, because he didn't buy bitcoin then. In the beginning most people failed to take the risk on investing in bitcoin because they feel it wouldn't survive but bitcoin proved many of them wrong due to the problem it is solving in the world, which made people see its potentials and started adopting it making the price to increase in value.
I won't blame most of those who rejected buying bitcoin at that earliest stage for one reason or the other. As in if am ain't mistaking, this is the first time we are having something of this phenomenon proving itself to this height above all  discredited slams.  Sincerely, am not sure what decision I would have taken as at that time for what the future wasn't all that sure.

I think others that would also be having a messed up feeling right now are those who managed to buy bitcoin back then and could help to be patient enough to hold it till this day but decided to sell it all at the early period it started to gain value. Truthfully, bitcoin long term hodling isn't for the weak..

The fact is that, if you cannot beat them, you join them. Thi is why you see that even the people that have criticized bitcoin before has no option than to join the moving train because they don't want to be left out. Banks started failing and fiat depreciating, investors started diversifying their wealth into bitcoin to safe the value of their wealth and bitcoin didn't disappoint them. If you don't have any bitcoin investment yet, learn from that guy in the OP.
Nah I don't think that it would even change a thing, even if he does invest in Bitcoin at that time, I don't think that he could endure it or hold it till now, a price drop already proves that he couldn't hold it for long term.

Shaky hands, that's how he could have been called  Tongue
On the contrary, everybody who studied and learned about BTC does have diamond hands put on it.

Don't you worry about guys like that, because chances are that he bought much earlier than majority of us.

Another thing to consider is that just because someone bought at the very cheap price many years ago, doesn't mean that he is millionaire now, or that he is havibg a lot of bitcoins and its not easy at all to hold if for example you bought bitcoin when price was $50 and bitcoin reached $1k for the first time.

Yep.
Most would drop their bags much earlier than we are now.
