 People who didn't accept a free gift of "$25 USD worth" of bitcoin a couple of years ago...

...are not having a good week.

Sorry friends, but I did try. 🤷🏻 
 I tried to get people in at 16K end of’22 🤷‍♂️ 
 Gave my dad $100 worth back when it was about 16k. Told him to write down the seed phrase. Don't think he did.  
 I offered the same to people. No one took me up on it.  
 I had 1 but he still listens to Schiff about bitcoin, so he's like 'meh'. 
 Sad. 

Friend of mine had a little but then watched a documentary that "proved" it was basically a ponzi. Sold the little he had and now doesn't want to touch it.
I just said "hm, okay", because if he is not willing to do any further research beyond some obscure doc, nothing I say will really change his mind.  
 yep. many such cases.
