I learned back around 2010 and 2011. I found out about Bitcoin through programming/coding forums. I actually ended up accumulating somewhere between 50 and 100 BTC from faucets alone. However, I never thought anything of it and didn't save the private keys when I recycled an old computer. At the peak of BTC, that was worth 500k to 1 million dollars. It's something I try not to think about too much these days. It's just as bad as the 10,000 BTC pizza guy.

I also remember the days back when Ethereum was trading around $3-$4 and I really wanted to buy some. However, I didn't due to my income situation. Another thing I kick myself for.

It was a couple years before I realized the true potential of blockchain technologies and began to invest money into it. Now, today, I focus a majority of my free time on the subject and love everything about it! I'm maintaining a blog where I write about cryptocurrencies and money, though I don't have much myself (yet, haha!), @ https://treepi.me/ . It is syndicated with my Steem account. I'm also working on some small Steem scripts and other little things for other chains. This is only the beginning and I believe we still have quite a long and bright future ahead! :D
