Enough of these articles. My story is similar and tragic and worst of all the only mistake I’ve regretted making.
I had the chance of buying bitcoin when it was just $2; a friend even gave me for free (the friend has over 20BTC now) but I passed up the opportunity.
A few years later (early 2016); I think bitcoin was playing between $500 to $700 I was willing to invest; a friend gave what he called “a well-informed advice” he said bitcoin is a child’s play and I took his words. Now I wish I can turn back the hands of time.
You too may have a story to tell; why not drop a comment below and let’s console us.
FYI; I’m investing aggressively in bitcoin now but at a greater cost.
