2008

I remember at a family Christmas gathering in either 2008 or 2009 my cousin who was big into computers was telling me about this “digital money” called Bitcoin and how he mined it, how it’s going to take over, etc. I was 19 or 20 years old at the time and told him how dumb it was and that it was a waste of time. Jump forward to last weekend at my grandpas 85th birthday party I see him for the first time in probably 5 years. I asked if he remembered about our bitcoin convo that Christmas and I asked him how much it went for back then. He got a big smile and said oh 30 or 40 cents. Oh how wish I would have asked him how to but $20 worth
