The year is 2011.
February.
10 years ago.
Drama.
You have some money in the bank and say to yourself:
I want to throw $10, or 0,1% of my revenue away. I can afford it. I’m going to invest in something and forget for four years.
You start to browse and the first thing you see is a post about this crypto-currency that paired with dollars. 1 BTC was valued $1.
You do your search, multiple tabs on the browser…
Some hours later, you buy ten.
Obviously you don’t forget, keep track and see the potential it has.
Four years later (2014), 1 BTC was valued around $500.
You didn’t need that money. You keep it there, as you already made many other $10 “throw-aways”/investments and most hold.
Three years later (2017) it went crazy. It went from around $1.000 to $19.000 for 1 BTC.
That $10 investment turned into 190.000. You decide to take half of it.
You have 5 BTC left.
Four years later, it’s valued around $50.000.
That 2011 can be today. Don’t hold back to the past.
What’s 2031 holding for us? Ten years can pass at the blink of an eye.
Do your research. Spend money you can afford. Decentralize some.
It’s a way to start.
Keep safe, you all. Peace.
