Lol, makes you feel like an OG when seeing other people's reactions to being in Bitcoin prior. I did CPU mining then GPU mining around \~2011-12. I can still remember the various commands that was needed or could be used to take advantage of MMX or even later SSE instructions. Then GPU mining hit, another game changer. One could easily make several BTC a week and or even sometimes get rewarded for a full block during that time if mining for a time. When the difficulty increased was time to stop mining as it was too costly. One could transfer them to Mtgox via Dwolla or do meetup via Localbitcoins for gain.
Yeah the only anxiety is that I didn't buy more. In june - august 2022 I sold 1/3rd of my stocks in SSE and Shell to buy Bitcoin. The price of those stocks is now lower than when I sold them. Should've sold them all. Whenever I buy Bitcoin I always feel better. Like an "ahhhh", that's better.
