A few years ago, a friend visited from Australia (mid-2018) and I was showing him what I was doing on Steem and in crypto in general and suggesting he look into it. He told me about another friend of ours (a nerd) who invested into Atlassian early and made a fortune - the friend had said "crypto is a scam" and that was the end of it. I am not an IT nerd and IT nerds know all there is to know about crypto.

What he missed was, our mutual friend, someone we grew up with, went to school with, and got drunk with on the weekends for years - failed to mention the opportunity at all. And, for him to make a fortune at that point, he had to have gone into some kind of very early round of investment, before listing.

Atlassian has done well. but the friend who visited didn't have any, because he didn't know about the opportunity prior and it was "high" already.

BTC was coming of its 20K and was sitting around 6000 when I was talking with him and dropped to 3500 a couple months later. I wonder if he has some Bitcoin yet.

My friend is in corporate finance.

They'll all buy something eventually.
