ah, yes! I was thinking to do this for a long while but as you explained, I didn't.

In the past, I was also afraid of people laughing or not taking me seirous if I mention bitcoin. But now I don't care anymore. We will see who is laughing at the end haha

sometimes (at least for me), choosing to do something even if you're unsure if it will make a difference requires a lot of mental effort (work).  perhaps, props to you for taking the initiative would have been more accurate :)
