Good read. I only began the journey back in Nov. - Dec. 2022. I really had no clue - knowledge about bitcoin other than a word and some kind of strange "thing" people on the internet talked about. So, I first began reading, reading, reading. Educating myself. Then, I decided to make my first purchase. $100! I figured what better way to try it out. Even if I lost it all I'd be pissed but not the end of the world. Right after that first purchase I bought a Trezor. Since making my first purchase I've continued on each month - stacking. Big problem now days is buying bitcoin. I prefer to use ACH transactions as they are low cost in my experience. I used Swan until they had to stop ACH in Texas. I've tried to use other companies such as River, Strike, etc. etc. None can accept ACH any longer in Texas. It seems now I'm stuck with Coinbase, but I still can use ACH with them. I suspect that will be stopped by the government any day. IDK. Too bad I can't buy direct from the miners. I'm learning more each day. I asked a guy that runs Bitcoin University on Youtube and he said for me to buy and ASIC. How dumb of a response that was.
