Probably doesn't feel as stupid as someone like me that sold hundreds in the 5-10 range.
I sold plenty of coin below today's price. Feel like a boss--I made money. Our friend, the intrepid investor, lost it. Though technically, the money wasn't lost--it simply went to those who happened to be smarter than JayJuanGee.
In his case, @$1200, that meant "everyone."
You gotta work on your reading skills NOT Not pork. Yes I believe I bought 1.24 BTC at $1,200. So the fuck what.
Took one for the team. Good on you, bro!
I did NOT take any for the team. I had been intending to look at bitcoin in October and November 2013, and I did NOT get around to it until mid to late November. By the time I figured out how to invest and to get started, I went through Local Bitcoins for my first purchase. I realized that prices had been going up, so I decided to invest $30k into bitcoin over the first 6 months, and to start out with a $1,500 purchase. I had seen that bitcoin prices had gone up by 8x in the previous month and I had seen that BTC prices had gone up by more than 20x over the previous year, so I was fairly skeptical of its ability to continue to go up from $1200; however, I wanted to have a little bit of skin in the game, just in case BTC prices went up further.. which was NOT out of the question. Accordingly, I figured that I could continue to study bitcoin while I had some skin in the game.
Please, for the love of God... please tell me you haven't invested $30k+ starting from $1200. I might actually die of laughter.
