oh i most certainly give him a LOT of credit. sensing a collapsing economy and taking steps to remain as wealthy or more wealthy is a really impressive thing.
ive talked a few times about how i think cyptos could bail out some people from failing economies, and the general crypto users would love a bump in demand. it just becomes a bank run situation at some point and people who get in later see a depleted value for their currency until eventually it's not demanded on a global scale.
I know someone who's a very wealthy man from bitcoins because he was in early. He had to because he had almost no money.
His logic was essentially that his country's money and the price of living was nothing and even if bitcoin and altcoins never popped off it'll still be at a speculative range higher than the value of his currency just off the back of anarchos and crypto enthusiasts. For him it was a win or a WIN.
If only I had met him way earlier and he would've convinced me, but I couldn't... I met him through gaming and we could've only met from 2013 and beyond because that's when he cashed in a few and he bought a gaming rig.
He was your average balkan hero playing early 2000s game because of his dinosaur of a computer. Bitcoin changed all that, he essentially told me that for the first 2 years he played all the games he couldn't for over a decade.
Steam was his best friend
