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.
If I had a time machine maybe I would think of using it to go back in time when Bitcoin was small and buy as much as I could. But on the other hand, I will lose many precious moments that I have lived and maybe it won't happen again. I personally won't use it and let my life be as it is now and move on with a better life, learning from the past instead of having to go back to the past. Maybe we can have a lot of Bitcoin by going back in time but who knows it might actually change something that is actually more valuable than that. So, forget about past regrets why you didn't know or buy Bitcoin from the past. It's better to focus on what we can do now and so on

I haven't even tried to get into this fantasy but, I find so many or something critically wrong about it.

I don't know how this fantasy might go,
Either you get to take yourself alone to the times past or you take other ls as well but, either way it comes, there is always goi g to be a balance offset
I can tell you certainly that, every moned coin is owned by someone. Either bought by an investor or it stays hodl away by miners.
There isn't going to be any supernatural mining to fill your desire and investors of time past aren't going to stop investing either. Perhaps there would be a price jump as to more demands to get your chance. Either way, you might not buy enough or perhaps, your future self won't be so convincing of your past self.

It's true they say time flies when you are having a good time, and crawls when you are having a bad time, so what I will simply do is fast forward the time when am having a bad time so the pains, the stress and the rest will go away fast, then when am having a good time I will slow the time in other the enjoy myself to the fullest, if there is anything to achieve that have not achieved I will pause the time and achieve it first before going forward 😂

Being in reality is good than assuming of the time machine. Myself will go back to the days where I spend my holdings on different needs. I'll take back the spending and this will make my portfolio stronger. Probably that is more than enough for me to have a successful living. People always look for a way to make money, and myself too does the same but in a different manner.

Will this happen in reality as that of the movies on time machine that takes people to the past.

Honestly bitcoin wouldn't be the first thing in my mind at all. Sure, it would be great if I bought some more, but I wouldn't buy like a million of it for two main reasons; first of all it would mean that people wouldn't get much and I would be getting it all and people would lose interest to it if I am the only owner and I can destroy it with one sell button, secondly it would be hard to safely store it and cash it out, how could you sell a million bitcoins without crashing the market hard.

I would do things differently in my own life though, I know what I like doing now, which is writing, so I would focus on that a lot earlier age when I can actually be better.

I believe that time does not exist, we just travel through billions of parallel universes in one second to produce the so-called time, so I don't need a time machine, I need to take my present seriously and make good assets of the present Configure, learn more encryption knowledge, and practice yourself.

Lol! I love such kind of theories! They are hilarious! Conspiracy theorists have super rich imagination so I believe they must try to write fiction which will have the potential to become bestsellers.

But I agree with one point. We all need to make our present useful and more streamlined. Rather than chasing wild goose, it will be great to learn more financial knowledge and implement them in real life to make the most out of it.

We can't say in the future if someone really can invent this or if we found a technology to do this. Though let's just like think like we are 9 years and be kid again for just few minutes for sure you'll be happy then after let's get back to reality and face it . As always we want to buy bitcoin in its earliest phase but that is really in the past so we should buy now if we don't want to be doing our mistakes again the same with before.

It's said time machines would be harmful to our timeline's sequence of events. What we change in the past would completely change the present and the future. Anyway, it would be tempting to go back in time, in the early years of bitcoin, and start using the first faucets available, while storing the income made for the future. I heard the first or one of the first faucets gave 5 BTC per claim, so we can have a good notion of how profitable it should have been to have claimed from that faucet thinking on long term. That is the perfect solution for everyone, since not all of us would have money back then to invest in bitcoin. We would have to earn it doing tasks and faucets were the key.

It wouldn't be surprising if someone said here that they would buy bitcoin when it was cheap and sell it when it was at its peak, who would miss that opportunity. the thing is, when we go back in time, would bitcoin be the only thing we would care about? i think i would take a different path. I'd want to fix the relationships I didn't do when I had the chance but thought I needed to fix when I lost them, and I'd want to spend more time with the people I was going to lose early. of course, I'd save bitcoin while I was doing it, and I'd get a foothold in the industry by learning all this bitcoin technology at the very beginning, which I'm sure would have made me more money.

For sure many people in this industry would say that they will buy Bitcoin when its market price is still low. But that's a time machine, I'd probably go to a bigger 'stage' such as buying a huge lot back in the 80's to put apartments on it. Why? It is a more assured asset I guess, given the scenario. Investing on this technology at the early rate won't remove the risk that volatility may create changes on its pattern unlike with real estate investments such as land ownership, it would be yours forever which makes me think it would be a better invesment if we'd have a chance to do so. But since that is a bit impossible at this century, a more secured asset would be more of a better option.

I would do much more effective things if I had a time machine Smiley I understand your regret about not buying more btc when it was low but it's important to focus on the present and make the most of it as you said.

In the current market, it's really a great opportunity to consider investing in crypto especially if you believe in its long-term potential. I always think of it as if I used a time machine that is capable of going back to the start of 2023 (now) from 2028 or whatever.  Grin

So anyway, I applied as a merit source :)
I would not change a thing.

This is because every bad experience comes with a lesson and that lesson sticks in your head like it's made of superglue, making you careful in future decision making. That is how life has to be, you win some you lose some and then your try again.

When I look back at my past, I feel happy to have made some mistakes because now I know how to prevent them.

The point it never to feel regret about your past, embrace it and accept that it made you what you are today. If you try to make yourself Mr. Perfect via a time machine you will end up creating a disaster.

People who enter the market because of altcoins wouldn't touch Bitcoin,
Not really, I entered the market for the first time and invested in altcoins instead of bitcoin, partly due to a lack of knowledge, and partly due to the temptation of profits that altcoins offer. But during the bear season in 2018, all my altcoins disappeared, and I almost lost everything then I started to realize bitcoin is the safest investment in this market. Many crypto market participants are tempted by altcoins, but after losing, they realize that only bitcoin is worth investing in.


this mean either there's an altcoins hype or not, Bitcoin market is still same.

The same is not true, if bitcoin really became independent and had no connection to altcoins, then when Luna or FTX collapsed, the bitcoin price wouldn't plummet as quickly. All are related to each other.

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. 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


[Note: Not your financial adviser, Do Your Own Research]

Be sure to let us know what you think about this!

If there is a time machine, I don't want to go back to the past, because my financial situation was very bad at that time. If I have to choose, I want to look at the future and make investment preparations in advance.

If you did, I'm sure the market wouldn't be as developed as it is today, and bitcoin wouldn't be as popular as we're seeing. Without altcoins, there would be no hype in the market, and people wouldn't enter the market, bitcoin would also get boring. What is attracting new investors to the market is shitcoins for their hype and returns, not only bitcoin. Bitcoin alone is not enough to create a cryptocurrency market and without volatility, bitcoin would never be popular.
People who enter the market because of altcoins wouldn't touch Bitcoin, this mean either there's an altcoins hype or not, Bitcoin market is still same. The reason why people are interested with shitcoins is they're want to get instant profit by pump and dump market, that's the reason why we're see so many bad news on cryptocurrency that lead new people think Bitcoin is scam.

Actually Bitcoin has huge volatility and high risk too, but since the use case is clear, the security is really high and 100% decentralized, it make the Bitcoin market always survive during bear market.

I have already taken the advice from my future self, and I know for sure that I will be in regrets if I do not follow the advice I have gotten to never quit getting bitcoins in any amount that I can get. I think my future self will be disappointed if I do not follow the advice and will most likely get depressed thinking about what could have been knowing that bitcoins will have a bigger status then than it has now. I want to be patient with bitcoins, and I urge every newbie who just started recently getting bitcoins not to get discouraged, bitcoins will do better, you will regret it in the future if you stop buying. Make it into a plan this new year, little amounts in purchase monthly will mean a lot in the years to come.

I would obviously try to go back in time and do a friendship with Satoshi. Be on his colleague list and work on blockchain technology. Make myself his best buddy and get Cool share of bitcoins.

Once I’m in, from there onwards I would also keep myself anonymous, and watch the peeps discussing about who Satoshi was. I would laugh privately reading all those threads about Satoshi and where he might be. Being one of the colleague, I think would still be with him on our private island, away from the world and partying hard around the clock.
Wow your plan is very nice  Cheesy
I appreciate your plan I pray you get a time machine and be friends with Satoshi Wink don't forget me mate. Gave me some bitcoins by creating bitcoins together with Satoshi he he he
