Imagine yourself at the Bitcoin 2013 conference in San Jose (California)— the year when the price of Bitcoin was just under $100! A small room, an audience of no more than 1000 people, and an atmosphere filled with curiosity and excitement. While Andreas Antonopoulos gave a deep lecture on the future of the decentralized financial system in front of a nearly empty hall, everyone was scrambling to hear from Gavin Andresen, the man who was then seen as the successor to "Satoshi Nakamoto".
⏳ At that time, no one knew that these moments would be immortalized in the annals of digital history. Most attendees came for a free shirt or just out of curiosity… only a few truly understood that what was in their hands was not just a "digital currency", but the beginning of an economic revolution that would reshape the financial world!
⚡ Would you have bought a few units of Bitcoin? Or would you have laughed at the idea and gone home believing it was "just another bubble"? Today, over a decade later, everyone who bought Bitcoin back then is seen as having envisioned the future.
The lesson? Historical opportunities come quietly… those who recognize them don’t need the noise of the crowd to make an impact.
⁉️ So, would you have bought… or settled for the free shirt?
#Bitcoin — between a simple past and a revolutionary future.
🚀 Don’t underestimate small beginnings.
