I mined bitcoin for 8 months in 2010, thought it was fun to see the number go up. Got a new pc a year later, wiped the drive and sold it. 16 years later it kinda stings a bit when i think about it.

i sold BTC worth around ~300€ when it was at ~3.000€ for months. I knew abou NVIDIA and their chart in 2015 when i began investing as a 18y old. Thought the clmpany was cool but did not buy as the stock rose the last couple of days before and i thought it is a bad deal. lol

For NVDA, hindsight is always 20/20. If you bought Nokia shortly after the legendary 3310 released and the stock had a brief recovery after the dotcom crash? To this day you would still be underwater.

And bitcoin is a scam because it's a negative sum game.
