Way back in the day a coworker and I were discussing various economic and political topics. He insisted both Tesla and Bitcoin were 100% hype and wouldn't be around long enough to justify investments. I insisted they would not only have persistence but they'd explode, too.

As I recall I also talked up graphene which (as far as I know) has yet to find its springboard commercial production process and/or application but if it does... I'll have hit the trifecta on valuation prognostications during that little chat.

It's just too bad I fucking suck as a capitalist and never bothered to take my own advice.

Last time I traded crypto was 2017.

Have sat on what I've had since then.

Not much BTC though... I'm more etherium or competing coin, most of which are surging.

I've got maybe a couple k's worth of BTC.
Blahhhhhh...

I still have video game tokens from Galaxy World.

Maybe Joe wants to buy them for his collection.

Well I'd like to get into bitcoin.
I just don't want to buy large sums of it with real money.

Seems the way to go is, acquire it through some means, like bartering, exchange or getting paid for a service.

Then if a person makes a pile, then cash it in for real assets.

But that's just a perception and I confess I know nothing about btc or crypto at all. Still I'd like to get into it - hopefully through no risk/low risk methods.

I think it's too late to get rich in it if a person didn't start long ago.

Still not sure where the money comes from.
I guess the multitude or numbers of users are its 'bank'

That the more money has been ivested or put into buying bitcoin with millions of buyers keeps this bank afloat.

I suppose the closest to what you're talking about are NFT's

Non fungible Tokens.

You can see it but ya still can't hold them.

And if you manage to find a buyer, they are transacted in ethereum

I'm talking about actual, real video game tokens from a big video game arcade called Galaxy World that existed back in the 1980s.

I think it's a bowling alley now.

So that'd be about $37.50 Canadian.

Actually avatar_Garraty_47 Garraty that is the essence of (capitalist) genius or any other for that matter. To take something from very little or nothing and create billions or trillions.

Think Henry Ford or Steve Jobs who started billion dollar companies in their garages or basements.

So not a genius mentality is to spend $100,000 per bitcoin cyz the horse has already left the gate

So the most logical way to obtain bitcoin now is to find ways try to get it for free or forget about & wait for the next pet rock to come along. Im more of both. Sink $20 or do in bitcoin & be on the lookout for something else

But i wouldnt bother to sink $100,000 into bitcoin at this point
