Sometimes looking at the Bitcoin candlestick chart, I really get lost in a time fantasy. If I could travel back to 2012, I wouldn't care about anything else—riding horses, driving cars, even climbing—just to crawl from the other side of the Earth to that Bitcoin booth, grab 100 coins in one go, then hold on tightly with all my might.
And now? I can only pat my thigh while watching the trend chart, feeling like my guts are regretfully green. From Bitcoin being worthless at the beginning to its current price, the story behind it is enough to make people reevaluate their decisions countless times. Maybe this is the charm of the market—every historical trend tests people's vision and determination.
But to put it another way, whether it's 2012 or now, the cryptocurrency market always offers opportunities. Instead of dwelling on past regrets, it's better to shift focus to the possibilities of the future. After all, every market fluctuation could be the starting point of the next story.

Oh no, that was a brilliant move. This is our daily routine—regretting every day for not going all in in 2012.

nah this "time travel to 2012" cope hits different tbh... everyone's got the hindsight narrative, but let's be real—most would've panic sold at $100 anyway lol

Really, every time I look at the 12-year market trend, I just want to smash my phone. Now it's all too late to say anything.

What's the point of slapping your thigh? You should have gone all in when it was time. Now, even if you regret it, you can't buy back the time.

The group of people from 2012 really made a killing. What's the use of talking about this now? Better to think about whether there will be opportunities next year.

Oh no, that was so heartbreaking. Who the hell knew back in 2012? It's too late to regret now.
Really, Bitcoin is just a psychological game; it's not about vision but about mindset.
That said, what’s missed is missed. There are still opportunities now; it all depends on whether you can hold out through the next wave.
