RE: An Open Letter Of Thanks To Ross Ulbricht
Ha! Great story, @choogirl. And what a bright young boy. I'd be curious to see what kinds of things he's into now... at the ripe age of 18. He was forward-seeing at 13, and probably continues to be.
I've got major regret for not having held any of the BTC I bought back then.
When I tried to explain to my friends what I was doing, I compared the process to taking your fiat dollar to an arcade, loading it into a machine, and getting "tokens" dispensed back to you so you could play the games. (The arcade was SR, the games were each vendor.) But, yeah... $3K tokens! #hindsight
He's about to finish school in December and when I asked my friend what he wants to do next year she said his response to that question is "I don't know so I'll probably just do accounting". I told her she needs to tell him to chase his dreams before he ends up being an auditor at KPMG.
Yeah, we all wish we'd bought bitcoins back then. Oh well, live and learn.
