Looking as bitcoin crossed the $50k mark earlier today I was increasingly motivated to find my old stash of bitcoins back from 2012 when few people had even heard this was a thing. I recall it was the time where Mt Gox was the only real exchange around and we crowded on IRC channels as well as bitcointalk.org. In 2012 I cashed out 120 bitcoins for a grand total of 1.6k usd - which will remain the worst 'investment' ever for the remainder of my life time.

On another note, today I was scanning all my old wallet backups and found 0.04 bitcoin, worth about 2k USD!!!

No, Bitcoin is not controlled by a small group of investors and miners (A rebuttal to the TechSpot article)

Day 9: I will post this guide regularly until available solutions like SegWit, order batching, and Lightning payment channels are mass adopted, the mempool is empty once again, and tx fees are low. Have you done your part?
