How much convinction did getting into Bitcoin in 2011 and holding until now take?

Or 2012? 2013? 2014?

Those in the early stages were wrought with peril. However, the payout to those who are still holding is huge. They might not have put that much money into it yet whatever they had, even a dozen Bitcoin, is life changing money to most people.

It is amazing how one's financial life could be completely reworked in under a decade.
