Yup. I can. I have around 1/20 of a Bitcoin, so the amount I have should be worth about $3,000 USD (unless the price has crashed since I started writing this post. 😈)
Cashing it in would make me feel dirty. It’s basically just handing the bag to the next bagholder. (Though, I’m not really a baholder per se. I’m not really invested to speak of. The only investment I made to get this Bitcoin is to leave my computer on for like a month or less.) Feeding the ponzi monster, as it were.
But then again, it’s $3,000.
As much as I hate myself for admitting it, the possibility that the price will climb a little higher is probably part of why I didn’t trade it for real money back in late 2021 when the price of a Bitcoin was so high.
But, yeah, you’re probably right I should just sell it. Maybe I’ll just make whoever I sell it to promise they’re not giving me next month’s rent or their kids’ college fund. Lol.
Edit: Ok. You’ve inspired me to make a post asking other crypto-skeptics what I should do with it.
Why drugs? VPSes, domains and gift cards are the legal things I can think of. Monero has been massively helpful to me with those while I cannot use my card)

If it’s any consolation, I just use bitcoin to convert to Monero to buy drugs. So in a way there is an actual use for it 😊
