Would it have been easy like today to have purchased like maybe 12 or 1300 usd worth of bitcoin before july 2010 on early exchanges online?
But if i wanted to buy this much bitcoin back it wouldnt have been simple enough to simply go to new liberty standard and buy it via paypal then?No, it wasn’t easy. Before July 2010, buying Bitcoin required technical know-how, using forums, and arranging peer-to-peer trades, early exchanges were limited or just launching.
More complex but how if someone simply wanted to buy?No, nowadays you can buy crypto with an average credit card.
Back in 2010, it was a more complex process, but even with mining or free faucets you could have made a good money with such huge valuation in fifteen years.
Early exchanges were few and not user-friendly. You also needed some tech knowledge and trust in something barely known. So while Bitcoin was cheap, actually buying it wasn’t as easy as today.
