I Bought Bitcoin(Again)...

The first time "I tried" to buy Bitcoin was back in September 2017, and at that time (early September), during the China ban crash, it was valued at $3,000 per unit...

Yeah, it was that low...And I did not manage to buy any because of some "mishandlings" using my bank account for doing that. Ever since, though, I have always owned some sort of cryptocurrencies, and a few months after that I created my Hive account and started earning tokens on a daily basis.

I kind of managed to make a living off of that for a couple of years or so, but that would probably be impossible at the moment due to the severe devaluation of altcoins against the dollar, and BTC...

I am still a crypto believer (mostly BTC), and I have not completely disappeared from Hive. Hence, I felt like sharing with you guys that I bought some BTC today. I got some cash back from the Austrian IRS from the taxes I paid on my income in 2025 and decided to put some of that into BTC.

I only bought something like 0.0034 BTC which was worth 260 euros at the moment of purchase, and hopefully I will be able to buy more in the years to come. The direction of the traditional cash is pretty clear.

We can see it being devalued basically on a yearly basis since covid through all sorts of manufactured crises, and although BTC is more volatile than the dollar or euro, in the long run it's a better option imo. Bitcoin is non-governable money and that will be a vital attribute to appreciate in the future as programmable money will be ushered into our society.

The path is clear and it was pretty much accurately described by quite a few long before the early signs were here. Will I regret buying BTC at $70,000 if it goes as low as$30,000 in the following months or years? No... I will just buy more and HODL.

I don't keep coins on exchanges and never will. I also don't plan on selling the BTC I own any time soon, no matter the valuation. Its purpose, to me, is beyond dollar valuation... So, that was about it from my side for now, after quite a long break from Hive. I hope everyone is fine and catch up with you all next time.

Thanks for your attention,
Adrian
