The first time I knew Bitcoin was around 3 years ago, I was playing on some HYIP website with my friends and needed internet currency. We were given choice of currency to deposit on the HYIP, there were perfect money, bitcoin and I can't remember anymore. I went to an exchanger online and exchanged for perfect money as it was the same rate with USD, on the exchange price chart I saw Bitcoin which was around $400 for 1 bitcoin but I didn't even think about it as I was only exchanging $100 and it would be 0.25 bitcoin which was weird for me. So that was the first time I encountered bitcoin, $400/btc.
Last year my friend brought up bitcoin when we were eating and we talked a little bit about it, I remembered the price as $400 (although it should be around $800 that time) from my last encounter and said "forget it, the price is $400 now, it's way too high, how nice would it be if we bought it at first when it doesn't have any value". Last 2 weeks I learned about blockchain and steemit from one of my subscribed youtube channel Coldfusion and got interested, so I researched more and realized the chances I missed before on bitcoin. It's pointless to regret it, so I decided to start investing at that moment. I looked for ways to buy some bitcoin and after a few days looked for trading platform for cryptocurrencies, then learning how to mine and here I am starting my little journey in this huge blockchain potential. I admit I do have the feeling that now $4000 is already too high and it's too late already to join, but that was also my feeling 1 year ago, let's hope I am wrong like I was 1 year ago.
Wish me luck
Thanks for reading
I hope it's not to late as well. More into Ethereum and other altcoins but am accumulating Bitcoin on selloffs. I started a few months ago.
Good Luck!
Good luck to you too @mikeflow !!
Hi @derp91 - meet someone of a similar frame! - had a peek at your blog and will make time to look at some of the interesting topics you have touched so far.
I may be a little further down the road too are on - in fact much closer to the end of it than I would like to be - and have had my share of hard falls and serious downs. But heck, we are living in an exciting phase of human evolution right now, with huge transformations due - and it is a privilege to be be in the company of guys like you!
I have not posted much yet, but should you be interested, you may get a gist of what I am on about now in my blog.
Have a nice day!
