There was an audience of thousands of people.
I told them to buy Bitcoin.
I think it was like $100 or $200 or something like that.
A lot of people didn't.
I saw people thanking me today for their retirement.
Wow.
That's incredible.
Well, yeah, I was in early.
So I was in Bitcoin in 2013.
And, you know, Bitcoin's changed over the years, to be fair.
So a lot of the ideals around Bitcoin in the beginning kind of changed.
I got into it because I saw it as a better way of making global payments.
Now it's got the whole store of value narrative.
You know, I think the departure of Bitcoin from the white paper has been good and bad.
It's now it's seen as a solar value.
So there's a lot of buy in from institutions and governments.
They're trying to make this what it is.
But there are scaling restrictions with Bitcoin.
So you can use it for a certain use case.
And so there are other cryptos out there.
