Member-only story
I wish I had taken Bitcoin seriously the first time I heard about it almost six years ago.
And I wish I had researched where to get it back then. At its really cheap price of about $1000 back then, I would have made a killing when it hit its $69,000 peak during the pandemic.
I imagine the crypto industry was super super small back then and crypto news was too sensationalised to allow any randomly interested party to give it a good thought. Only those that got curious enough benefited.
When Binance founder and CEO CZ was told about Bitcoin during a poker game, he sold his Hong Kong residence for $1 million and put all that money into Bitcoin. At the time, Bitcoin was trading at $600. When the price hit $69,000 during the pandemic, his investment had multiplied 1000x plus.
Even with the $24,000 current price, CZ is still profitable.
Back in 2015 when be bought in, information about Bitcoin was not as widely spread.
But things are much better now.
Information on where to get Bitcoin is now readily available. With crypto regulations getting stronger globally…
