I stumbled across BTC in 2011 after listening to a podcast: https://omegataupodcast.net/59-bitcoin-a-digital-decentralized-currency/
I even installed bitcoin core on a Windows 2000 machine but didn't fully understand what I was doing, lol. After a week or so, I removed the btc core software, my biggest mistake not to dig deeper.
I eventually bought BTC at the ATH in 2021, it's never too late (I got the BTC for the price I deserve).
you know what ... it wasnt a mistake
Imagine hear abotu X in 2011 and u neglected it ... and then x disappeared and went to zero!
ur decision was rationale and logical back then :)

Very true. I probably would have lost my coins or, if I was lucky, got caught in the MtGox thing. At least then I would have been forced to hodl until I got my settlement.

Yep, this would have been the most likely scenario: coins lost on a faulty hdd ("no worries, it's worth nothing anyway") or sold early ...
