Ya gotta understand... when I was on BTC, I bought on Coinbase. At the time because everything was so new and volatile, Coinbase had a 7 day hold period, so you buy, you can't sell for a week. I was young and took a big gamble with my family's money, so I panicked when the price skyrocketed then started tanking. I also had some holdings on BTC-e that were seized by the government. This was also around the time Mt Gox had a big scandal with tons of BTC stolen. I almost bought a Bitcoin miner at the time from a company that ended up stealing everyone's money.

Bitcoin was not for the faint of heart 7 years ago. It's a bytch to see the price where it is, but in retrospect, I don't have the conviction of @heisenburrr so it's not like I would still be holding onto it today if I would have seen it thousands higher.

:mjcry:

As an aside, I spoke with the CEO of Coinbase and almost took a job there when it was maybe 5 to 10 people. That would have been worth much more.

:mjcry:

This was tough to read man. Sheesh

40k when is the dip I want IN :damn::damn::damn:

Dollar cost average your self in. Stop waiting for big plays. Nobody can time the market 100%. Just make small weekly purchases and stop worrying about the price. Here are some sites that show you what you would have made if you just invest weekly/biweekly/monthly even with the dips.

In June 2020, popular hardware wallet maker Ledger experienced a data breach of their e-commerce and marketing databases. The company initially announced that 1 million email addresses were leaked along with the personal details and contact information of 9,500 customers. In the months since, it has come to light that 272,000+ customers had their names, physical addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers leaked.

This CryptoCast episode covers the Ledger leak, self-custody options that crypto holders have, and risk mitigation approaches to protect yourself and your crypto holdings from theft and scams like SIM swapping.

I heard Coldcard is good but it's type pricey
