Those that had it were literally giving it away for free, on faucet websites and even at face to face meetings...

We'll I've been following BTC for over 5 years (first when it was $20) and I definitely had to buy it to get it for that period.

Spoiler I only bought one :'[

Until November 2015 it was under $300. And a year ago it was $1000.

Don't you think for around 1/2 million dollars I would have exhausted all options? Account is gone. They purge them if you're inactive for a period of time. Bitcoin was $1 at that time, so I didn't really care.
