ancient people even buy a pizza with hundreds of bitcoin. if it is seen now, the act was the stupidest action. however it was the past, look at that in the future will continue to grow bitcoin than today. we will be part of the future.
the guy who did that has stated that he doesn't regret it. he's a better man than me.
It was the first ever bitcoin transaction and if it hadn't happened then maybe the future would've been different.
I've never sold or traded, only accumulated and spent. all the junk I bought when it was in the 200s will no doubt haunt me in the future but it was cool to do at the time.
He made the first tx that legitimized Bitcoin. Without that transaction, who knows if we would have grown so much by now. Most of the people here today would not even be here if that pizza was never bought and Bitcoin believed to have a value. I would argue that it was a benevolent investment that he probably profited heavily from (later) assuming he had (likely) many other coins than the 10k spent.
@OP and thread;
Never dwell on bad choices! It's those choices that shape who we become, and it will drive you crazy if you can't let it go.
I must've passed out hundreds of BTC in tips in 2011 and 12. No regrets since it wasn't worth much back then. I don't even care now. Especially as a trader, if you are worth more now than before, you win. It doesn't matter if you cut too early, you profited. Most traders will lose far more than they win. Be happy you didn't get too deep with loans or some stupid shit and now owe money for coins you lost or spent.
