I think the only reason I made money was because I was leasing Scrypt rigs back when BTC was around $500 and everyone was rushing to mine the next new token.
I held my BTC through the crash and when I got busy and stopped leasing rigs, I forgot about my BTC wallets. I tracked them down years later and sold for a nice profit simply because of forgetfulness. !LOL
Sending you some Ecency love!

Hehehehe... I think that a lot of crypto millionaires became millionaires similarly... They forgot about it, and remembered on the next pump... 😃
I got into mining much later, in early 2017, with GPUs and ETH mining... If I didn't play around with altcoins and just HODL ETH, I suppose my current portfolio would be in a much better shape... 🤣
I wish I was a forgetful millionaire, but I made probably around $1000 and whatever profit after the leased rigs paid for themselves. At the very least it makes for fond memories and fun stories to share with my kids.
Now that you mention it, I think I wrapped things up when I saw the next wave of crypto was going to be mined with expensive graphics cards or dedicated high-end machines, and that's probably why I got out.
I only wish I found Hive earlier, but then maybe finding it later isn't bad. I'm less focused on the price and what has been and more on creating, building and what is yet to come.
