I think, like many people, would buy a bitcoin, and now would not work Cool

Not so many who where there at the beginning of bitcoin who bought Bitcoin at a cheap rate are. Retired right now, we still have some Bitcoin OG who is still very much active with the present economic situation and still work from 8-5 pm every day.

So most time retiring early doesn't have to do with individuals' financial state because some are lucky to have gained financial freedom at an early stage of their lives through taking calculated risks.

We have several such Bitcoin old OG here in the forum and they are still very much active here and it makes, .. so old investors have the chance to make any change in their life whether to be active to keep themselves busy, but saying they won't work at all for the rest of the life on bitcoin investment.

So if you have the strength even after making all the money you desired to leave a life of activities vs retirements.

It is impossible to purchase Bitcoin even if one were to travel through a time machine. While time travel may allow for the observation of past events, it is unlikely that any alterations can be made since one is traveling alone rather than affecting the entire world. However, this scenario is merely a dream and is unlikely to ever occur. Personally, if given the opportunity to change something from the past, I would choose not to have been born, rendering the acquisition of Bitcoin or any actions in this world unnecessary. Money plays a significant role in our lives, and it is often our primary focus. Life can seem meaningless without it.

Bitcoin is such an uncertain future currency that no one can say for sure what will happen in the future. Hundreds of predictions are constantly being made around Bitcoin. Predictions were made about this valuable currency in the past as well but some have gone down in history by selling this precious currency at a low price.

Martti Malmi sold 5050 bitcoins for $5 at a rate of just $0.00099 in 2009, setting the record for the lowest bitcoin sale in history.

~~~

If you could travel back in time today, what would you do?

Everyone will answer corny - I would buy bitcoin cheaper.
For example, one hundred dollars when it cost so much in the last months of 2013. (In fact, I then bought a tenth of bitcoin, but a month later I spent it - I needed money).
Or everyone will start arguing that they would have bought it for at least $ 1,000. But the fact is that time machines that move you back in time will never be invented, because then we would have met travelers from the future for a long time. But there are none.

Nevertheless, experience and strategy can easily make a profit, and there is no need to move in time. It's enough just to make the right predictions.

If I have a time machine that could travel back in time, I won't be too greedy going back to early years of Bitcoin. I am fine going back to the year 2016 when the signature campaign pays more than 0.04 BTC per week. I wouldn't aim for the BTC that I have not accumulated but the one that I earned instead. My plan is just to save the BTC I acquired, hodl it and wait for the price to trend according to the history. Then sell half of it on the BTC market peak of 2021.

If only I had a 20 minute future time trouble machine I could be a billionaire in no time trading futures. Because here you can get leverage up to 125x for Bitcoin. It is possible to earn huge amounts if the future is known for a short period of time. I think if anyone got this machine they would all think so. Because crypto is one thing, if you take the right entry, you can earn huge profits in a short time. And can make a person rich overnight

If there was a time machine these people you mentioned would have turned back the hand of time and sold in 2021 when there was ATH. Though this only exists in movies and if this was possible I doubt if Bitcoin recognition will be as this and also the value also might even be lesser than what those people sold it for.

Laszlo Hanycez made history by being the first person to buy a product at the lowest price in exchange for Bitcoin. He made history on May 22, 2010 by selling 10,000 Bitcoins for just $40-$45.

Our forum admin sir has sold his 160 bitcoins at a rate of only $0.003 on exchange for $0.48.

Not only here but also in the past hundreds of Bitcoins have been traded which is amazing to see today. Those who traded Bitcoin at that time are now only regretting it and those who bought and held Bitcoin at that time, it is amazing to think how much their fortunes have changed today.

If you could travel back in time today, what would you do?

Well, that is expected but I believed that what happened has its own reasons and those were not really a waste because that was one of the reasons why bitcoin became more known and be the bitcoin that we have these days as those trades and sold(s) were like a stepping-stone so that bitcoin will evolve into a much-needed asset.

The same with what everybody is saying, accumulate as many bitcoins as possible and hold it for decades.

Every now and then someone asks a similar question and each time I ask why don't people just buy bitcoin right now. It is not like we've reached the maximum price possible! Funny thing is that if you check the price at that time against current price you can see what those who didn't buy then, have already missed out.

For example you can see in this topic some people say "they would have bought $X worth of bitcoins". Price that month dropped as low as $6k and today it is 5x higher! Do you think any of those guys bought bitcoin then instead of wishing they had a time machine?

Who knows, maybe in a couple of years from now I find this topic and post it as an example for someone else who will have asked this question again Roll Eyes

I guess people will just have the same answer, to buy bitcoin while it’s still very cheap and affordable and hold them for years, and just sell them when bitcoin price reaches its highest peak price and gain maximum profits. But if this thread will still be asked years from now, probably people will still regret why they keep on missing opportunities, wishing they could have been billionaires in the present time.

If I had a time machine that I could use only once, I would probably travel back to when I quit study and I would not quit, would keep studying, and when 2008 comes, I would definitely be paying attention to economic crysis and educate myself about that, and in the next year, I would probably be aware of what Bitcoin could become in the future and I would onboard since the beginning!

dont be greedy

The most common answer to the hypothetical question of time travel is that if someone were to acquire a time machine, they would buy as much Bitcoin as possible in 2009, or when Bitcoin was first released. However, if time machines were available to everyone worldwide, the demand for Bitcoin upon its release would be exceedingly high. In fact, the price of Bitcoin would undoubtedly be at today's levels, not merely valued at one cent. In reality, Bitcoin's future prospects remain uncertain, as human greed may lead to its downfall, but it could also reach new heights if demand remains strong.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody

I don't think I'd try to make money by investing in bitcoin if I had a time machine. I'd probably go back in time to give myself a few tips, make sure I choose the right path in life, something different than what I'm doing now. I'd probably tell myself to buy some bitcoin, but being able to go back in time would allow you to make money from a number of sources.
To invest you first need money. How would you make money out of nothing? Probably by gambling. Knowing what I know, for instance which guys became boxing or mma champions, I could make money out of nothing. I could then put that money into Tesla or Amazon stock and be rich without ever touching bitcoin.

People back then for sure wouldn't even regret about their decisions with BTC current value before. Of course most common expectation if we got asked what we would do if there's a time machine is to buy a lot of BTC. But back then, I don't even have idea what is crypto I'm just a student who thought by studying well would get me rich. So for sure studying crypto would come first so when I got some funds for investment I could also ride the pump since there's no late comers in this industry.

If there is a time travelling machine, I believe that we won't learn from our mistakes and become great later in life. Because we can easily turn back the hands of time and correct them without learning or having an experience from the situation. There will be no bull run and bear run in bitcoin life cycle because those factors that contributed to the bearish market will easily be changed.

FTX will not crash and fiat currency will still be strong. So many things will be put back in shape instantly, which will discomfort the benefactor from benefits. Imagine I sold during the bear and you bought my coin,I will take back my coin and give you your funds if there was a time travelling machine.

I won't decide to go back in time just because I want to own a lot of bitcoins.
I prefer to stay in the present and continue what I started because changing the past means changing the present and it doesn't mean we can get where we want.
Maybe we think that by going back to the past, we can collect lots of bitcoins or buy them at cheap prices, but are we the only ones who will do this? Certainly not.
There must be other people who have the same desire because they already know the present events, which will make the bitcoin journey different from what it is now.
And maybe things will not be as we see now, where we can still try to get bitcoins and have that opportunity.
But that's up to each person because we all have different goals.

The absence of a time machine makes the world more exciting to live in. If such resources had been available, many things wouldn't have turned out the way they did. I don't believe that having such in place would have made the world a better place. More boring people than intelligent ones will be produced by our breeding program. No one will want to work again if they know they'll accomplish this in a few years or if, despite years of arduous effort, they will never be able to realize their ultimate goal.

If I had a time machine, I might use it to predict who I will be in ten years. Without considering anything else, I will be thrilled if it goes in my favor and unhappy and upset if it doesn't. Even the prospect of that will makes me want to end myself before my time. Those who sold bitcoin for a very low price are now regretting their decision, but perhaps what they did at the time increased the popularity of bitcoin to be adopted and has helped in making it becoming a reality today.

Obviously all of us will answer buy more if we only knew it since 2009 that the price of BTC will moon this high. There are OGs that still kept the old wallets untouched which they really have a ton of BTC. They must have been the true believers of BTC since time.

There are also ETH beleivers who are doing the same. I personally worked with someone who has more than 13K Eth back 2016. That guy must have seen the repeat of history.

If I can travel time, I'd offer Lazlo more than just 2 pizzas Cheesy

Question is would you be having the capital to invest by that time? Some would say yes and some for sure would say no. Not to break the idea but the only reason why we regret not investing earlier is because we failed to do so and happened to witness how beneficial doing so. But if we would recall by that time most of the people did not invest because of doubts and lack of courage to do so. Rather than wondering what could have happen if you do this, things could still be done at the present with proper entry and exit points. The market would either go up or down and if you have the will to still invest, it will never be too late. Just do not be too greedy of profit 'coz you cannot have all the profit in this industry.

Imagine zipping back in time, McFly-style, DeLorean and all, to score some serious Bitcoin loot. I'd snap up every last smidgen of Bitcoin in its infancy, back when it was just a baby buck.

But wait, it gets wilder. I wouldn't halt there. Nuh-uh. I'd blaze back to the future, peddle my crypto fortune to myself, and spawn an unending whirl of Bitcoin riches that'd make even Elon Musk's noggin twirl.

Sure, we might tear the space-time fabric or trigger a global financial meltdown, but, hey, you can't whip up a wicked soufflé without smashing some shells, right?

So, if a DeLorean-riding oddball offers you future Bitcoin, keep calm, and remember: it's all part of the master plan. Tongue
