I bought my first eth when it was $130 around mid 2017. I sold out back few months later. If someone had told me to keep it for 4 years...

I feel your pain! I can't imagine if I were to have the amount of ETH today that I did before when it was $20-$30 each. Would be nice...

As for my case should I say I was not that serious or know much about ETH like I do now. May be I would have bought some of it then and it would have been a very huge investment today. But I have other crypto coins I am managing though. I will work with these ones for now.

Honestly, but of course how were we to know. It happens, and this has actually been guiding me in other investments I've been making.

It wasn't that you were not serious, you just had no idea it will boom this way. No one did, but it's good you have invested in other coins.

I remember buying and selling ETH when it was $27/each. Hah, now look at it. :\
Are you being serious about that? $27 is a complete steal at what it's been sold now. It was around $200 that I got mine.

Yeah. I remember buying and selling them when I worked the night shift at the hospital. It was really boring at night so I had the time to trade back and forth. If only I knew then what I know now.

I think I purchased ETH when it was 500 USD. And now the price has gone out of control. I may purchase in near future but as of now I can't because the price is not something I can afford. I would instead buy BUSD or the Binances BNB. For now I feel like the other coins which has some growth are worth investing.

Just because the price is high doesn't mean you can't buy it. Using exchanges and other platforms will allow you to purchase fractions of it. Are you aware of that?

Yes but the amount I can think of is a bit small which would be affected by transaction fee. So I am holding off on that part. I may consider swapping my AMPL token to ETH in near future as that's something I have been thinking last few months. I mostly earn AMPL token for my content on one of the site so getting ETH that way is my current option.

A friend of mine convinced me to buy ethereum about 3years ago but I didn't invest on it as at that period. Presently, I am not holding the coin because I am afraid of the humongous gas fee attached.

I wonder when the gas fee will come down? At one point it was around $300+ USD just to make a transaction.

The gas fee is a major concern and it has made many choose other cryptocurrencies. Ethereum would have surged far more than what it was now if not for the high transactions charge.

I knew of Ethereum when it was just below a thousand dollars. Without money to buy a large sum, I decide to look for other low cap altcoins to buy, the profits of which I would use to accumulate Ethereum for long term.

I didn't buy Ethereum when the price was at $20. I bought it when it was above $2000. I missed the etherium when the market value was very low.

I did not directly purchased ETH due to gas fees problem, but I Purchased ERC token only to regret later. Last lowest price I remember was $400.

I bought the ethereum when it was $900 and it was indeed a very profitable move for me. I made a lot of profit from the investment.

You are still among the early birds in the adoption of ethereum but mine was a little late which but I still managed to garner some profit.
