Considering BTC was at around 10c in 2010 and you have many of them...

You must have some of the steeliest nerves and self control the world has ever seen.

At what point does a 46.19 MILLION per cent gain become insufficient?

You should also add on the forked coins' values that tamimio owns.

Good point, but arent there only like 2 forked coins with any value? BCH and bitcoin gold? I think thats it.

Even Bitcoin SV is at $90 per coin, for a 90 thousand percent gain.

$1,111 of Bitcoin in 2010, would net you $1M today in Bitcoin SV alone, even if you gave away your Bitcoin, Bitcoin Gold, and Bitcoin Cash.

I like your vibe but basically no one bought bitcoin back in 2010

There was a wallet came alive a few weeks ago that had been dormant since 2010 and moved $125m out. I'd love to know the story.

The problem with HN folks is they think it's all about the gains.

Many hold ethereum and bitcoin because of the utility. It's a permissionless and portable store of value that you can 100% be in control of and not have to worry about your account being locked, funds being frozen, asset seizure, operational hours, etc.
