anyone who actually admits to owning millions in crypto in this thread can expect to spend the next couple of months getting spear phished

I am a theoretical Bitcoin millionaire, you know, had I not cashed out after the first rapid deflation.<p>How was I supposed to know that $1&#x2F;BTC was going to be looked back at as hilariously low? When they hit $40&#x2F;BTC I cashed out and made a whole bunch of money.<p>I don&#x27;t really want to think about how much money I would have if I waited until this week to cash out...

Bought eth, held for two years. Not much of an interesting story.<p>In the end, I mostly got lucky. I thought it was world changing tech, but I definitely didn&#x27;t see the ICO boom coming. I thought prediction markets and decentralized markets would drive the price up, but those never seemed to materialize. Which is a shame, because thats what I&#x27;d rather see. There&#x27;s still time, of course.<p>Its been an amazing ride, but also a huge kick in the balls making more money while you sleep than working your whole life. It certainly changes your view on things.
