I have been reading Bitcoin Billionaires by former Domain Conference keynote speaker Ben Mezrich . It’s 100% slanted towards hating Mark Zuckerberg and promoting Bitcoin and the Winklevoss Twins but I trust Ben’s opinion more than the average person’s. He puts in the work to get the details behind the story. Of course he is a story teller so I imagine like all authors he leaves or adds what is necessary to tell a good story.
I wish I would have read the preview copy someone sent me because I would have certainly bought bitcoin after reading it. It’s that persuasive. And I would have almost tripled my money if I had. I only hope that he bought some while writing it because in my opinion, it’s not a coincidence that the price has gone up with release of the book. I can see how the Winklevoss twins fascinated him. Their story is as good as any you could make up. And their “all in” with bitcoin is the stuff of legends. 10 million to 10 billion dollars is just crazy and like everything bitcoin makes you want to go back in time. I know many will say “its not too late” but the 100 times return is over. It IS too late. Don’t get me wrong, I believe in bitcoin. Just not as investment. I have plenty of investments. I believe in it is as a secure, quick, form of payment. Once the price stabilizes it will serve that purpose better.
And the book. The book is a must read

I know everyone has heard bitcoin stories before. Well, I bought about $9,000 worth of Ethereum when it was $8-9 each. In total I had just over 1,000 Ethereum. I needed money and sold it when it hit $20, not thinking it would go up much more. In hindsight, I should have just sold off some of it and recouped a good chunk of the initial investment and let the rest ride. Less than 9 months after initially purchasing the 1,000+ Ethereum it went up to have an all time high of $1,389. I know for sure I never expected it to reach that high, but it’s tough to think that I could have become a millionaire in less than a year had I just held onto it.
While I’m a big fan of BTC, I’m much more of a fan in Ethereum (even though it’s relatively underperformed lately).
You may not may 100x as a return on either going forward, but if you have a 2-3 year time horizon – which domainers necessarily all have – you won’t be sorry jumping in now. Guarantee that both BTC and ETH dramatically outperform stocks, bonds, and precious metals over that time frame.
I’m a much bigger fan than EOS over Ethereum myself. I know I wrote about selling all my ETH way too early, but I did net around a 20k gain off of EOS as well.
Tom,
Thanks for sharing. That’s all I think of when I see bitcoin is how often I bought and sold and never held. That’s part of the reason
I haven’t sold my best names until I get the price I want. So in some ways our not getting our millions in bitcoin could lead to getting our millions in domains
Your right on. It’s over at 100-1 you can’t get the returns. At best case 5 to 1 your looking at 50000 price in 5 years. To much $ to put out for the risk and time imo. I would rather buy 5 domains at 10k each. They will hold value regardless of what happens.
