I would not have gotten back with my ex for the sake of the kids, that's what. That would have saved me over € 50.000 in debts and a lot of screaming and fights which did none of us good. That is what I would do if I could go back. And then ofcourse invest big on bitcoin Tongue

If I had a time-machine and only 1 chance to use it, I would pass it on to you bro. You would use it better then I would.

If I got back in early 2009, I would tell Satoshi how amazing he is, sell of my property and give the money to him, get his phone number, then like anyone else, I would buy and mine as many bitcoins as I can then finally in 2014 I would call-up Satoshi and give him 50% of my investment in his technology.

So you probably spend your days ass kissing Satoshi? I have to say that s a new solution nobody has come up with. Grin

Well, every little, helps Grin

You might scare him away and that would be the end of it. Satoshi is above such earthly things as ass kissing. Or if you did get Satoshi's phone number you might wind up in a shipping crate in Afghanistan listening to Barney the Dinosaur for 96 hours. We'll never know.

I m sure that at the point of creation of his life work, all Satoshi had in mind was some foreigner arriving to his place to share his ideas with.

I'd mine. Not so I could be super rich by now (although that might be nice), but to simply be more involved in the growth and future of bitcoin.

Just mining would have been a mistake. In 2009 the exchange rate was $1 = 1,309.03 BTC. Investing $1000 would give you 1 309 030. Technically you could buy up all the coins on the market for a small amount of money. Mining and buying at the same time would be the perfect target. You'd always have BTC to support your future investments.

i would buy the biggest and badasses farm that could ever exist, and take the control of at least 33% of the network, to this i might add more miners to take the control of 33% of every other algo, then i would donate 10% of my btc to poor or people with economic problem

so back then 20 PCs should be enough

Does anyone remember what was the hottest GPU at that time and what was the price? I had Nvidia at that time so that would not work.

I said realistic what if scenarios. Were you really able to buy that kind of farm in 2009? Did you funding for that at that point in time?

well yes, if i had started early, i would have acquired at least 100k bitcoin(maybe even more), even if we consider your amount only(7M) you can already build a very big farm

Unfortunately you are talking nonsense again. Where would you pull the funding from? You're participating in a signature campaign and doing a lot of posts so you probably need it.
Back in those days you needed a lot of CPUs, meaning a lot of full computers. Having quite a portion of the network did cost a lot even though there. That's not very realistic.

You would be probably better off buying as soon as someone offered Bitcoin at any rates back then. You could have easily acquired 100k Bitcoin. At least that's what I would do.

If anyone could get back in early 2009 & buy/mine a lot of bitcoin & altcoin
I bet the future of bitcoin would be worse than now, since someone could dump all his bitcoin at $1xxx

Personally, i hope i could get back to the past & find out who is Satoshi Nakamoto Grin

2009 is not enough for me... to really fix things up for myself I'd probably have to go back all the way to 1999. I would do a lot of things differently.

Easy question - pretty easy answer. Just buy a couple hundred thousand coins (considering 20K was worth a pizza, it would probably cost you a couple hundred bucks), store them away and remind myself to research all the tax laws later on. Then convert at any point over $100 (preferably back when it was worth $1K), pay whatever capital gains taxes and sit pretty with like 20 million dollars. Don't think I'd need much more - anymore would just be an ego boost to be honest.

I would buy as much bitcoin as possible and build a huge mining farm. I would focus on controlling the biggest mining farm with around 45-50% of the total hash rate. I would also invest in bitcoin related startups and businesses.

So, if you come back in 2009, how would you structure your BTC related investments. Please post only scenarios which are financially viable. For example, I would take my $7 mil and buy every BTC domain known to man is not going to work. Only stuff you were able to do at that point in time pls.

Let us hear how would you make your millions in case you had a time machine to come back to 2009. Grin

I'd buy all the major bitcoin domain step 1, wouldnt cost that much.

Step 2, Use all the rest of funds i had at that time to buy bitcoin.

Step 3, Convert all BTC to Litecoin when it started

Step 4, Convert all litecoin back to BTC when Litecoin hit $50

Be super rich.
