Wonder working God
When I first head about bitcoin it was in the year 2017 but I never knew what it was like untill when I fine out that is an interesting platform were we can make investment,were we can invest money in and make either profit or lost but still I have never been thought how this was been carried out so I back off.but I guess with the time machine I will like to go back and start making investment and get to know more about it well.

What will you think if you had on in your house?
To me it will look so grate and it make me if possible to go back to all my lost and make amend of all my lost.

Because I cannot undo the past, let's let the present set the stage for the future. If I were to reflect on the past, I would continue to regret not investing in Bitcoin at an earlier time I was aware it existence. But if we examine what has occurred since the beginning of Bitcoin, we can see that the price has been rising, thus with this, I still think there is a chance to accumulate Bitcoin for the future benefit like what have being happening continually. I want to hold onto my Bitcoin for a good 15 years as continue to they accumulate till them; who knows what might happen then? There is a proverb that says opportunities present themselves all at once. Simply said, it means that the past cannot be changed. So let's seize this chance right away and gather Bitcoin.

I also don't like talking about the past or the things we'll never be able to do. Don't try to remember what we missed in the past, that only makes us more regretful, but instead, if we know the potential of bitcoin, we should take advantage and hold bitcoin now. Because history will always repeat in different ways, bitcoin fell but will rise later and create future ATH. It's almost 99% going to happen, we've missed it in the past, so don't let the future regret it again.

I don't know if you are very serious in your life you are were not went through from the childhood lol. I know your point, we cant undo it and make us regretful but again that pain of regrets makes us learn a valuable reason and able to reflect that we didn't invest on that  so would you do that same mistake again? By looking the past you can easily react on your things to do right now such us investing to bitcoin , if you feel the same emotion before that you will not invest because the price wont be going up then the probability that you will do it again if you don't reflect from your mistakes in the past is still the same or much higher.

Don't get me wrong: don't look to the past means you shouldn't think about it too much and don't just live your days in regret. And as you say: take the past as a lesson and don't let mistakes happen again. I've regretted missing out on bitcoin in the past, and I don't want to sit back and remember that mistake every day, instead get up and do whatever it takes to prevent it from happening again in the future. I'm very realistic, don't like daydreaming or paranoia, and never wish to go back to the past, what I hope is the past will repeat itself, and I will find a way to fix it.

Why do you all want to go to past instead of future? Why do you want to live same life period again? Not a single person that wants to explore future. If you all are into earning money because you want to buy cheap, why not go to future then and inspect what will cost millions in future? Who knows what it is going to be? Maybe Terra Luna will cost thousands in 2030 Cheesy

if there would be a time machine, I would like go to 2017, it is my darkest year and I would like to correct many wrong things that I have maid during that time, I will also think for other way so that I will not go with bad decisions in life that time. all in all, it's okay if there's no time machine, you can still have that tomorrow to change things and to hope that it will not happen again.

I would go back in time to mine bitcoin on its first year. That way, I would be able to amass a high number of coins and would lock tehm on a wallet back in time to access it in the future.  Moreover, I would contribute like one of the early adopters and become known throughout history.

You do not need to go back to the past, instead, you can try to think of the future.  Just like what @OP is trying to say, we can assume that the current year is the past year and the future of 12 years from now is the present.  This mean, we do not need to have a time machine but instead, we can just start accumulating Bitcoin at the current price and wait until 3 halvings had passed and see for ourselves that we had made the right decision of accumulating Bitcoin 12 years ago(present year).
^ I would still love to go back fast if there is a chance, to be a part of the history probably. Being a Hal Fenny? a Pizza man? What else?
And ACCUMULATE since back then it is very cheap, I can probably hold 100 BTC or thousand of it as I want. But now, yes you can still accumulate but it needs also a big amount before you have a whole number of BTC, it is totally different.
However, we don't have that machine, so let us accept the fact that we are here now, all we have to do is just accumulate even though a small fraction so that we a gain rewards in the future.

It didn't matter if they wanted to reminisce about it, but the problem was only memories.
We can never repeat the past, but we have the opportunity to change it for the better in the future and everyone has that opportunity in their hand. Not all of us can get better, some will get worse for whatever reason. So whatever happens, keep trying your best.

If it's all just about bitcoin, then I think it would be good if they started to look at the market which started to recover since early January this year.

IMO, if investment companies started to see Bitcoin as valuable asset, they would try as much as they can to throw the crowd out and control it. We started to see that from the previous cycle which was a bit different from the casual Bitcoin cycle.
This is a great thing to bring up right now. Are we really going to be in control if the big company tries to take over the BTC? Well BCT is free and not controlled by anyone, and what will happen if someone does so?
Being decentralized is the key factor for people to accept BTC. What if we lose the sole purpose of it. It's terrifying just to imagine what could happen.
Let me know what you think will happen.

Considering our present as our past, put yourself in the future and think about what your future self would advise you right now.  In this bear market, the price is low. Not as low as in 2008, but it is low now. What are you going to do? Ignore this now and in the future tell yourself when Bitcoin crosses its ATH again that, "if only I had a time machine now"
Well, a bear market is not a thing to be panicked about. It's an opportunity to fill our bags. Hold it for the future, as if your future self told you to do so. Every pro-crypto owners know this. Time to learn for yourself.

This topic is for newbies who are thinking that BTC will fail and get vanished out of existence. Read this, and you will understand



To be honest I don't expect Bitcoin to rise in value for ever, every new asset has to go through stages of development, in the Bitcoin case it went through the hardest stages and managed to prove itself as an asset although many entities tried to stop it, you wasn't able to advice someone to invest in Bitcoin few years ago because it was representing much higher risk than now. Logically, there is still big possibility for Bitcoin to surpass the last ATH as the market cap looks small in comparison with other global assets, so the next cycle it should make new ATH, but we can't expect what happen next.

Ironic question right? Well, as a crypto lover/ investor or whatever, only one thing that comes to my mind. That is, to be honest, if I get a time machine now, I would probably travel to the past and advise myself to buy BTC when it was so low. In the past, I may not have had the cash to buy it, but somehow I would convince myself to gather some money to buy it. Or take something from today and give it to my past self.

This is just like a fantasy. A daydream that is impossible to do. But have you ever thought something out of the box? Like we are in 2022 soon to be in 2023 (Happy new year to all). As days pass by we are moving toward the future right? Thinking about it like this puts us in the past. Our future will become our present one day. So are you going to think the same thing about your future and just continue on living?

Bitcoin is here with us since 2008. We can't go to the past, can't change it.

After all this, you may be wondering what I am trying to tell here. Let me explain then.

Considering our present as our past, put yourself in the future and think about what your future self would advise you right now.  In this bear market, the price is low.

I think most us would simply buy BTC at cheap prices if we had access to a time machine. As for me, I'd just go back in time to prevent falling for many cloud mining scams and recover my losses. I'd also buy as many cheap DOGE as I can to sell it before Elon Musk started pumping its price back in 2021. The profits would've been used to buy more BTC and become a filthy rich person.

While BTC prices have declined massively these days, I still think we're early to the game. There's a lot more to crypto/Blockchain tech than meets the eye. Once renowned companies, mainstream governments, and banks begin to massively adopt this tech, BTC prices will never be this low again. We should start accumulating as much cheap coins as we can before the market starts pumping again. The future is widely unpredictable, so we can only hope for the best. Wink

If I be able to use time machine, I definitely not gonna aim to use to get rich. That is too petty imho. Money can be earned anytime if you are lucky or talented. Instead, I would have used time machine to meet people I miss, those who are no longer with us. And probably not to do all that bad things I've done and not to upset people I had upset.

I really feel bad about those who say that they wish they would have bought or mined bitcoin in 2011-2012. Easy money always spoil people. You would better work hard now to get rich and proud of yourself, instead of using time machine as a cheat.

You have a very different way of thinking, and I appreciate that. But I think since we are on an investment forum, people will only discuss what is involved. If we had a time machine and had time to decide what we would do with it, I believe many people would make the same choice as you, not bitcoin. You are right when many people are regretting their past, money or bitcoin are things that can be earned even now and in the future, as long as we work hard. It's not something that's so hard that it's impossible to do.

Actually, we are not on an investment forum, we are on cryptocurrency forum Cheesy But you my friend, has been hit by "money" plague. Where people see technology (Bitcoin for example), you see opportunity to earn.

I could have used time machine to go back in past and be the one who would be a Bitcoin creator (Erumotoshi). But I would not do that. The level of responsibility is too high. I would be number 1 victim for human hunters. I dont want to be surrounded by guards, I dont want to walk and always look around.

Sadly, nearly everyone wants to go past. No one wants to go to the future and see how the world would look like in 30 or 50 years. Probly balls are not heavy enough to accept the future Cheesy

The time machine is going back in time. But not for profit, but for family. I want to go back to the past countless times and spend more time with my family. Now think about how much money you have is not as good as having your family by your side. Sorry I might be digressing a bit. . . . Going back with memory, I definitely go back to when I first heard about Bitcoin. When I hear about it, I should study it, and don't let the news affect my thinking. And I will also share the matter of Bitcoin with my friends and family, so that they all know about cryptocurrencies.

Looking forward to 3 halving from now, it is really a good chance to pile up our stash with Bitcoin.  Looking back, we have seen how skeptical people failed to make a fortune when they doubt Bitcoin to be able to be successful in its adoption.  We already have a history that proves those who hesitate will never gain, so we should avoid repeating it again and we should be convinced by the history of Bitcoin market price.  Nothing much more to do but just pile up our stash with Bitcoin, buy when we have the extra fund, and stash it for a long time to have a significant gain.

yes exactly, I will pause time and go back to go mine bitcoin at it first year, not only that I will join this forum too just the very day it was created, coupled with learning some other skills I didn't learn when I was young enough, I will then bring out my talent in rap music and the whole world will be screaming my name. Some mistakes have done too will be corrected and some decisions I took will be improved.
But firstly I am take everything about bitcoin seriously because then they were doubting the acceptance of bitcoin and it discouraged most people from taking it seriously.
