 I'm the first Bitcoin boom. I got robbed, but I kind of deserved it. The retail price of 1070s and 1080s were $300 to $400 back then. But they were selling for like $800 to $1,000 because people wanted them to mine Bitcoin. I had notifications set up on my phone for when websites would restock so I could get one every once in a while. When I did, I would sell them immediately on Craigslist. And then one day a guy hit me up to meet him in his apartment to sell him one for $700. I was fine with it because my rule was there's two places you do a deal. A safe place or their space. Because no one's gonna scam you at their house because then you would know where they live. So I drive up to this guy's apartment and he walks out into the parking lot. I go, hey, are you devious? He had a giant puffer jacket on and so he pointed his pocket at me and then said, give me the box. It took me two seconds to realize what he meant and my stomach just sank. Even though I probably deserved it, I still can't help but wonder if someone was actually willing to shoot me over what is now a $100 graphics card. Anyways, I built a PC.
