lol, im talking about before the ath btc had.. there were many experts all saying how BTC was shit etc
if only u hedged when i told u about eth and my plans in january...eth was under $0.80 , if u spent even 1btc u wouldve been on 15+ today ...soon ETH will cross $20, then $50 and even $100 and hopefully at some point your attitutde towards ETH will change and u buy some..before it hits $1k+ lol
anyway, im not arguing with u, u my m8
Ok.. fair enough.. and yeah, you have been consistently pumping ETH, but past performance and extrapolating possible future performance does not justify getting in at this particular price point.
The fact of the matter remains that there are several very significant problems with the centralized control of ETH.. and sure, it could get pumped another 10x or more, but that doesn't make it a good investment given the considerable (and seemingly greater downside risk in having your fate controlled by various ETH manipulators and hype machines).
Yeah, could have made a killing in price, but I don't really have any regrets about not getting into scammy ETH (and I am not denying that it can contribute a variety of technical innovations and even other social and economic innovations). I feel good with my BTC investment and keeping track of the so many things happening with BTC, whether it balloons from this price or not.. I don't really give a shit. I am not in this for gambling or short term profits, even though profits can be nice and even icing on the cake that makes me excited about being here and getting paid while I would have been here whether it was as profitable or not as profitable....
For example, I would have continued to stay with BTC, even if my portfolio had stayed about 50% in the red. Anyhow, the icing on the cake is that it became a lot more profitable than my relatively conservative projections and did more than a 3x price increase from it's floating in the $230s. Anyhow, my conservative scenario also still has accounted for various seemingly pie in the sky bullish price scenarios. But bitcoin is not merely about price, but it remains about decentralized, immutable and permissionless system that has a considerable momentum at the moment, even if prices gets stuck in some kind of $400 to $700 price territory for a few years. (but I doubt it is going to play out like that).
