Ragret. I learned about BTC when it was under $100. Around roughly 2011-2012. But I didn’t understand it and shrugged it off. 
learned about it when a pair of SF tech bros came in to my old company wanting to open an account.
kind of wonder now how they’re doing.

I told this story before but when BTC was young a co worker wanted to give me some BTC and I said no. He ended up getting arrested for a BTC Ponzi scheme. https://www.wsj.com/articles/trendon...ase-1469141141
