If we'd bought ETH at $10 when Steem started... we'd be pretty happy today, if we still had it.
With my disappointment of the HIVE/STEEM fork my tokens were powered down and shifted to ETH, hoping that they may do a better job with the PoS fork they were talking about at the time.
Those grubbies mentioned should be thanked for motivating my powering down. By early July of this year (about 4 years later) those same ETH had 10X'ed. They were cashed out just before ETH's moderate crash against BTC this year. The funds were taken to purchase a 36' blue water Cabot-36 Cutter in Toronto, ON. It was then sailed through Lake Ontario, the Thousand Islands, the Saint Lawrence Seaway, to Montreal, Quebec and down the Saint Lawrence River to the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, then to Prince Edward Island and at last, 6 or so weeks later, returning to the province where my journey started; Nova Scotia.
Hell yeah it feels pretty happy to me. 🏴☠️
That's pretty awesome how the journey turned out for you! It's always good to hear that crypto "worked out" for someone.
Nice boat!
Only about 22 hours out of Halifax NS, in a small town called Port Hawkesbury, awaiting winds to cool down to finish the trip home. All thanks to HIVE/STEEM in a convoluted way.
