I just realized that my 50 BTC donation to the forum is now worth $2.9 million. Wow! Never in my life have I expected it to be that big.

This is the most obvious 'bitcoin pizza' moment for me. What's your bitcoin pizza moment? Anything crazy you want to share?

Here's to another 10 years of HODL'ing

Do you know people from the beginning like you, who just HODLed Bitcoin and have never sold a single coin since the moment they started accumulating it? Where are they today? What are their plans for their wealth?

If he got that much and donated 50 BTC, he could have more still today. Like him, he hodled as well like the rest of us who got a ton of eth while it was just $3.

My pizza moment was when put a sell order of more than 600+ Waves on cryptopia. Now can only laugh histerically with only 30+ waves.

You guys are assuming the account is in the possession of the original owner, and I see no reason to do this. Even if it was the original owner, they're kind of glossing over how they came to possess that kind of BTC in the first place.

Quote

In a phone interview with Australia’s AM radio show Tradefortress responded to challenges that the theft was ‘an inside job’, though he insisted that he wouldn’t be reporting the theft to the police because the bitcoins are untraceable and it would be impossible to track the culprit.

...

Tradefortresses’ public identity still remains unknown, however his reputation on Bitcointalk seems to be questionable, with at least two members claiming to have been scammed by him for failing to deliver on coding projects he had already been paid for. He has said that he wishes to retain his anonymity as he now fears for his safety in light of this recent heist.

At best this is some stab to regain reputation; whether for the account or the individual is beyond me.

Good to see some early adopter members of this market had given out some words about those pizza moment which is indeed a very sad situation where it do leave some regret feeling that we shouldnt
have spent those coins but well, who had actually anticipated for this thing to go that high? Even that pizza guy might still have that nightmare until this very moment on why he had
spent out much bitcoin for some slice of pizza but well we cant turn back into the past, whats done is done. On my part about those pizza moment is on when i do waste up on spending my coins
since from 2016 and hadnt save up that much.I would have been rich if i do able to do so.

I had almost no such experience, but it was my friends and I who decided to argue with each other. And the person who loses this discussion is holding a lottery for 1 eth, then it was about $98. But now... Now we see for ourselves that at the moment it was $4.5k

My bitcoin pizza moment was trusting the wrong person by investing more than 12 BTC in a platform called coinlenders that then run away with the coin.

Oh wait, that was you...

As long as you got the money for the sold Waves it is all not that bad. Cryptopia shut its doors with some of my coins on their exchange, but I didn't even know in detail anymore what was there and in which amounts. The procedure to resolve the issue was way too complicated.

That's such a huge amount of BTC but you have nothing to regret about since that amount has helped lots of people already since you mentioned that you donated it. My pizza moment was when I sold an altcoin which I thought was a shitcoin not knowing that it could reach $1 this year. I was regretful but that's part of our growing process in crypto.

SmartFi - EARN, LEND & TRADE

All of this is a reference to the regret in the past about something we have sold. If I talk about my "Bitcoin Pizza moment", I probably regret a lot of things. I used to own hundreds of Bitcoins and then sold them because I was a trader. I owned tens of millions of DOGE coins in 2015 and I gambled all the DOGE I had. There are dozens of cryptocurrencies that I sold out before they reached their maximum value. Because of these events, I have shifted from trading to holding crypto.

This happened to me just recently in the month of December 2020 when my wife wanted a gold chain and I was telling her to wait for some time. But she was adamant to get it ASAP. So with no other option, I sold half ETH for just 300$ which is now nearly 2000$ and I could have bought her a diamond necklace with that. Roll Eyes

I don't regret it as I have lots of ups and downs in my crypto journey, this is my Pizza moment I guess.

Looking back now there are so many things I didn't know then that I know now and would have done things differently if I had any slightest idea about them back then, I made some silly investments then didn't end nicely, if I hard just put all that money on btc and relax I would be much happier by now, but then they are part of my experience.

When I was introduced to cryptocurrency, it was all about Bitcoin. So I only bought little amounts of Bitcoin. When I had extra money, I sometimes preferred that it would be converted to Bitcoin. It was only Bitcoin. And then I started to get introduced to other cryptocurrencies. I learned it a little later that there are so many other cryptocurrencies aside from Bitcoin. It was then when I started to divert savings to them, even buying them using my Bitcoin. Later on I realized they all grew in value but only because Bitcoin was rising fast. It would have been higher if I stuck to Bitcoin.

It is sad to know that I have not had a bitcoin pizza moment and that situation in itself is the piece of pizza that corresponds to me. Although I have had satoshi moments.
When it's a triangle or a slice of pizza, I'll be able to count it.

We should update the story at least "Satoshi Pizza Moment" 1E¹² sat.

The Standard Protocol - Solving Inflation

Unfortunately, I don't have a very surprising memory. but I can talk about something I regret. I had sold 0.6BTC and 2 ETH that I had saved 2 years ago. back then I needed money and had to sell it. I wish I could hold. I regret too much. I would now have maybe 10 times the money I got back then. but here we have to evaluate everything according to that time. I'm even sorry for your 50 btc donation right now. Cheesy

You own the pen

That's a lot of money out there but those things help a lot in order to achieve what we are having right now. You guys are one of the reasons we became successful today. those early investors help a lot to achieve our goals today. My pizza moment was when I invested big in the cloud mining investment platform where I thought it was the only way how we can invest in bitcoins back in late 2015. The bad news is, when the time I fully maximized my earnings, I didn't get anything cause it turns out to be scammed and all of our investment was stolen. I think if I calculated the amount that I lost to the current price, it was worth about 10,000 - 20,000 dollars.
