    Super early on I mined probably 500+ bitcoin.

    And later in life sold them all at various points for maybe a total sum of $8k.

    So, yeah.

      This is what investing is though. No sane person would have bought Microsoft for peanuts in the early days and waited until today to have sold their first share. That’s when people get greedy and lose everything.

      Bitcoin is very high risk, so your probably $7.8k profit should be seen as a huge win, regardless of what could have been.

      I’ve only had a few go through my hands but I definitely bought drugs with them.

      … No regrets that was some fantastic ketamine.
