You did not keep some money in Bitcoin because you have no money.. the money you had was meant for your study.

Anyone would have actually been rich if they bought Bitcoin then.

It doesn't matter now. Let me ask you this question, are you actually accumulating now? What steps are you taking to make sure you dont regret later in the future?

Good question for the OP to answer, and it's fair to correct what they wrote above. The OP only wrote an if, but you've already explained the process and it's clearly impossible.

I see EQ present in the OP's mind when he writes this, and we can conclude that his EQ has dominated his IQ, meaning he has a desire and hope to invest in BTC. Anyone can and has a place here as long as they believe this asset has the potential to continue investing in the future.

I think the reason why you didn't keep some money in bitcoin is because you didn't know the value of bitcoin by then because if you know that bitcoin will become something valuable and very important you will have keep money and buy bitcoin and become rich today, it is not your fault and you don't need to blame anyone for what has happened because it was destined that you won't have it. Everything happens for a reason, and no matter how brilliant you are, if you are not destined to do or have something, it will never happen.

There are many people who are regretting their actions today as a result of their actions towards bitcoin; some people have known about bitcoin since day one, but they see it as something that has no value, it is a lesson for those who do not trust what they are doing, it is not too late to buy Bitcoin, if you have the money, you can buy Bitcoin and hold it for a long time because no one knows what the future holds.

There is no point in regretting the time that has passed. Those who learn from the mistakes of the past and can use that learning in the present will benefit the most. Who still invest in Bitcoin will also remain in the first stage. Because the number of investors in Bitcoin is very less compared to the total population of the world. Whatever the current price of Bitcoin is, if you can hold Bitcoin as much as you can without giving importance to that price, then you can keep yourself away from regretting in the future.

You are not alone in this regrets my brother. Yours is even better, you tried to mine, even as a student with little resources. What about someone like me that had the money but still missed out painfully?

I'm sure that you would give it a better try if you had the opportunity, and you could be one of the Bitcoin champions today. So don't regret it much, and always use the constraints to console yourself. For me, the mining efforts with just a tiny $0.50 is no encouragement as well, so blame yourself less.

It is very hopeful message, and it is true that there is no need to feel bad because no one is not late to Bitcoin ride. Just like price target of 100k being reached, new targets of 200k and 250k are where everyone thinks price will go, meaning even small investment today has huge chance. Most best way is to stop looking back and start Dollar-Cost Averaging which involves purchasing small amounts at regular time, even when price goes down, to get most amount of Bitcoin when price finally rises to those high goals.

You forgot about it simply because it was worthless at then based on your own story. I believe you wouldn't have forgotten about it if you had spend huge amount of money and time to mined it. Look, it's natural to feel regret in a situation like this but you should view it from another angle. You're only regretting now because the Bitcoin price skyrocket all this while. You'll be excited for not saving your money on it if it were to be like altcoins eg Luna. The table could turn and you might be one of the poorest people today. It's a two edge sword with pros and cons. The good thing now is you know about it value now and you can invest in henceforth.
