Yup. The only reason I hate cryptocurrencies is because I'm ashamed that I missed out on something everyone else presumed I would be early on.
Holy cow; this is so true. The good news is that recent events are exactly the times when you want to introspect.
It is still early on bitcoin, and this is an inflection point where technologists have an opportunity to self-correct.
Will we? Who knows, but I doubt it.
it could be worse. I got in at the very beginning where you got a free BTC for opening a wallet. I lost it without even caring because it was "worthless" at the moment.
