I originally found blockchain through my technology research. This led me to Bitcoin. I was interested in the tech more than the money aspect to start.

Found Bitcoin in 2011 or 2012, invested in 2016/2017.

Wow. That was a long time and it took you long to research before investing. I'm only a year and months here and crypto really made sense to me this year.

Yeah. Well I wasnt looking at it from the #crypto angle. Besides, back then the industry was almost non-existent. You had Bitcoin and maybe litecoin although I didnt know about the latter.

When I found bitcoin I thought it is shit. Why do we need virtual money which is worth nothing. 2nd time I came in contact with btc / crypto / crypto games and did my research, I totally changed my mind. Little did I know back then.

Why do we need virtual money which is worth nothing.

What makes money worth something?

This is one of the most misunderstood concepts.

Yeah... I've read a few books about fiat money. The Silver Conspiracy was an eye-opener for me. Then Bitcoin Standard and a few others. The latest book I bought but didn't read yet is 'MIeses Geld' (Bad Money). No wonder Bitcoiners say BTC is healthy money.

And they are wrong. None of them know what gives money value. If their theories were true why were Roman coins more valued than neighboring empires who had more metallic content?
