Back in 2013, my friend Jake was an early adopter of Bitcoin. He'd excitedly talk about how it was going to revolutionize finance while I would just nod along, clueless. One day, he convinced me to buy a pizza using 10 Bitcoins. At the time, it seemed like a fun, harmless experiment. Fast forward to 2021, and those 10 Bitcoins would have been worth over half a million dollars! Jake's investment turned him into a minor crypto celebrity, and he even started a blog advising newcomers. As for me, I still kick myself whenever I eat pizza, but hey, at least it’s a tasty reminder of how unpredictable this world can be!
