But, nowadays, to save, it could be really annoying, it can got to 10000, then to 3000, then to 7000 , and all this within a couple of days.
I sold it for less than $50, thinking I'd cash out with a very nice profit! Now I find myself wondering why I didn't just sell half to cover the original cost and hang onto the rest. But there's no point in playing regret with 20:20 hindsight - after all, who was to know? (In life I seem to have a habit of walking out on things just before they become really successful!)
Later on after I realised this bitcoin thing wasn't going away and did make a better profit. But it is basically gambling, so once the value went up again, I withdrew what I'd paid and gambled with the profit - that way I wouldn't really lose.
