Other people's experiences will be an early warning that we need to evaluate so that we don't make the same mistakes.

To turn back time and go back to the time when Bitcoin was not yet in great demand, it would be everyone's desire and then buy a lot.
Yes, but that will only be a fantasy, will never happen.

What needs to be fixed without the need for a time machine is how we understand trading well, understand cryptocurrency so that any current opportunity can take advantage of it to benefit. All will have the same opportunity, depending on how we will start.

Sometimes the past should stay in the past. Maybe this is the best. I don't want to go back and say things like I would buy x bitcoins. I don't want to fantasize about the past and get stuck. I try to live our day the way we deserve. I am striving for my future. Thinking too much about impossible things is stealing time from our future.

What we need to do now is to think and invest in the next 5-10 years. For the previous years, we wish we had bought bitcoin. Why not buy now?

In learning things and acquiring experience through others, it is not necessary to have the same feeling as the person.  It is a matter of the cost and effect things and not the dramatic feeling the subject is going through.  Honestly, we can tell them (feelings) since we have a grasp of how emotion is formed.

Time will never come back so this discussion is a bit in vain but one thing we can do is just learn from the past experience and use it to leverage our advantage in the present and future tense of our Bitcoin journey.

That is mostly true and I see it the same way, but the huge difference between back then and now is the significantly increased downside risk and the decreased upside potential. Nobody could have ever truly known how far Bitcoin will go, but when you consider its total supply and you would have decided to buy 10,000 Bitcoin for $45, you would have owned a significant share that either goes to 0 one day and you would be $45 poorer or you would hold a relatively significant share in something you think is interesting and somewhat different from other potential assets in a very tempting way.

This does not mean that Bitcoin can't outperform other assets anymore. It would probably will for quite some time, but if I am not mistaken, nothing has ever performed like Bitcoin I believe. The psychological effect on getting in when you know you have missed the train for over a decade is rooted in the accounting you do in your head. You think about the 10000x that it has done already and then you have doubts whether it can do it again and whether there is something else that could do this. Ultimately, you do know that it had never been easier to get rich and this has certainly become true for some of the earliest buyers.

It is said that seed investors take the biggest risk because they finance a start-up or product that is still in its infancy. In the case of Bitcoin there wasn't really any risk if you only look at the numbers. Throw 50 bucks at it and let it go. Couldn't have invested 50 bucks in Facebook or Amazon and also became as rich.

The present is still a very good opportunity to buy bitcoin but many people do not dare to buy and dream about the past, which is really ridiculous. I also think that even if they go back to the past and do not know the future, they will never dare to buy bitcoin. Because right now, we all know that bitcoin will hit $100k, but still not too many people dare to buy.

This is what I want to say, why don't we buy bitcoin now and hold until 15 years later? We don't have to reminisce about the past and get stuck with it, it doesn't make us any better either. It is never too late to invest in bitcoin, and I think now is the perfect time to invest in bitcoin. If I had to choose, I would rather buy bitcoin now than in the past because the future of bitcoin is more certain than ever. The risk of buying bitcoin in the early days is much higher than buying bitcoin from now on.

I have held alts until they turned to dust. I don't ask much from time-machine, I'd just convert these alts at their highs to Bitcoin and put it into a cold wallet. Compared to responses here talking of thousands, even with time-machine I'd only have two digits of btc at max, yet it'd be enough somehow.

We'll see that in the next upcoming years. We want to see that happen that price of Bitcoin is higher than in those years but inflation would also be high by that time. We don't know what's with the future and how it's going to look like but we've seen this in the past that nobody believed Bitcoin but only a few folks that the society thought they're geek and weird people but look where they are right now. Those that have held and believed on it are wealthier than those that have mocked them.

Wow! Learned something new today. Tough luck for those guys. Honestly at that point you just have to realize that you were never destined to be a stinking crazy rich person. Maybe gonna have to lower that bar homie and just settle for becoming a modest millionaire after spending one's whole life working your ass off and amassing it all by the time you're too old and can't enjoy it anymore, just like the rest of us hahahahah jk 😉

Of course I will change my decision of selling my Bitcoin at a low value, now that I know the price will skyrocket. But we can't turn back time, it's all in the past that we should not dwell. Back then, who would have thought that Bitcoin is a gem? I admire the early investors who managed to hold their Bitcoin for years and able to witness the bullrun.

Anyway, it happened already so instead of looking back on the mistakes you committed, much better to look forward on what the future holds. Because it's not late to hold some Bitcoin if you don't want to have regrets once again.
