Yeah, get into Bitcoin at the peak investment age of ten.

Edit: JFC y'all, I'm middle-aged.

Have you tried being older? Bitcoin would be a 21+ problem for me!

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

I'm already older, I was talking to that guy

If your family had a PC at that time absolutely. Just wait for the first inklings and start mining. It was way easier at the start. You'd be able to get several thousands pretty easy. Maybe you get some visa gift cards as a kid for Christmas, dump em in there. Or even just go to any store and use your allowance to buy one. Then sell at the peak. EZPZ

Yeah, you can do that. Bitcoin is anonymous and you could earn it relatively easy when it first came out. If you want to get real fucked up with it you could make even more by appealing to those early black markets and use your age as a cover, but that's risk.

You generally need a credit card to do that.

At the start all you needed was access to any computer. Mine for an hour and come out with some bitcoin

[-] psud@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

At ten you might have a computer that can mine a couple of hundred bit coin

Were there any DOS programs for mining Bitcoin a couple decades before Bitcoin even existed?

[-] psud@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago

You were the one positing the idea of Bitcoin at age 10. A 10 year old in 2010 would likely have a suitable computer

Where is your initial capital coming from. Less than 100,000 will not get you to 10 mil, even mining at an early age requires either wealthy parents or venture capital.

Running a digital farm takes money. Something you clearly haven't thought out.

Early mining required a mid-tier gaming PC, the kind you could finance with a paper route
