Bitcoin has been a much more massive success than I had envisioned in 2009 when I heard about it. Sure do wish I would have "wasted a few dollars on the fad." (Fun fact: I turned around and spent what SHOULD have been Bitcoin money on Magic: The Gathering Cards...Guess which one is worth more 8 years later.)
It sure does seem to me that the Bears are all past the age of 45. I don't mean to be an "Ageist" or any of that nonsense, but in my experience, most people who make derogatory statements have been long entrenched in the World of Banks.
