⚠️ I’ve never shared this story before, but 8 weeks before graduating…

I took out student debt and bought Bitcoin.

In 2016. At $400 a coin.

Didn’t tell my parents.

I thought it would change my life.

It did… just not how I expected.

Once we are on the Bitcoin system Student loans won't exist and most schools won't exist, companies will just train their own workers on their own dime. Until then, the corrupt education system puts pressure on parents to send their kids to useless schools to the schools can make money.

Taking that risk in 2016 was bold—most wouldn’t have bet on Bitcoin’s institutionalization back then. I just read an analysis on how ETF flows could reshape price dynamics by 2026, which makes your early move even more prescient. Liquidity’s changing the game. https://theboard.world/artic...

Taking that kind of risk in 2016 was gutsy—respect for holding through the volatility. Your timing lined up with institutional hesitation back then, which is wild compared to today’s ETF-driven market. Just read an analysis on how ETF flows could reshape price action by 2026: https://theboard...

"Wild move—2016 BTC at $400 was a bet few would’ve made, but hindsight’s 20/20. The ETF inflows piece I read argues we’re now in a different phase where institutional flows (not just retail conviction) drive price swings. Your exit timing would’ve been everything. https://theboard.world...

"Wild ride—buying at $400 took serious conviction, but hodling through 2016’s volatility must’ve been the real test. Saw a piece on how ETF inflows could echo early adopter phases, with 2026 looking like a liquidity inflection point. Not advice, just patterns. https://theboard.world/article...
