The one memory that forever stays in my mind is I had said "It went up to $3,200, there's no way it's going ever more than that"

I actually mined BTC in 2010 on my gaming computer. I was a teen trying to make money online so I could pay for the video games I was playing. I wasn't very successful, idk if I mined anything - and the HDD got broken soon thereafter.

And now we are here :) life writes the best stories.

I am a bit jealous of people saying they mined as early as 2010. I don't even know when I heard the first time about bitcoin. I think it must have been not long before I bought some (2017).

I also remember how I wanted to go to a talk about bitcoin but none of my friends were interested so I didn't go, either.
