I watched it a few months back when you have posted it. I don't remember if it was a dedicated post or a comment on one of my posts. I don't know if I can call you lucky, but being in crypto for that long is really something. Will reblog it to get it as much exposure as I can. Have you uploaded it on the blockchain in case vimeo goes down?

I'm sure there were so many people saying, "It's too late, I missed it."  After BTC got over $100.  They missed it alright.

Thats an amazing video. I still remember when btc was around 600 USD. At that time, I just knew that there is a currency which has value. I was a kid back then and watched BTC go up and up. 
I was introduced to steemit by a friend and then I came to know about crypto and everything in it. 
Unfortunately, I also left both steem and hive just like your kids but I am back at Leofinance with some motivation. 
Thanks @onealfa.leo for your support and services to the leo community.

GET YOUR BUTTS IN HERE AND BUY, ENGAGE and INVEST!

Anyways right on. I remember back in those 2013 days myself when I was still trying to figure out what the heck exactly bitcoin was. Then buying Ethereum at $13 a pop when all that existed for the most part was Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin.

I feel that's an important part many forget about from 2017 rally to the rally we have today. There were very limited choices and other blockchains were small with their own issues. 

2021 however we have side blockchains that help Ethereum and Bitcoin which goes to show you once we start fixing the lag in transactions and super high costs this thing is primed to take off! DeFi is still ground floor it's only become known over the last 6-9 months and heavily used I'd say in the last 4 months. 

Lots of room to grow and invest.

That is awesome that your family used to be so involved with the blockchain.  Even if it was only for a short time.  They at lest got their feet wet with it which is more than you can say for a lot of people.  I am guessing even though they may not be active on here, they are probably still pretty heavily invested in blockchain though right?  Man, I wish I could have that time back and purchased at $150!

At the time I was completely unaware of everything and therefore even back in time, I could not buy Bitcoin at that price.

Today, however, I have the opportunity to redeem us with HIVE, LEO, CUB. In 10 years I will see the results (I hope much sooner: P)

Really, really good!  It IS still possible to jump in.  There's a long way to go yet.  As low as the price was back then, this train is still truly just getting started.  Can't wait to see what happens and evolves over the next 7 and 1/2 years.  Thanks for sharing!

Its amazing to watch something you did years ago and see how good your thinking was. 
Quite a visionary video :)

This video flashed me back to those early days of bitcoin. One of my friend who is now a multimillionaire persuaded me to buy btc telling me of its future potential as at 2014. I bought about 0.6btc and later sold it the next month. Who will ever know that btc could spark up with the speed of light as is it today. Now I'm regretting that i sold the 0.6btc so soon, never knowing that 1btc will one day hit over $50k.

Now today getting 0.6btc is extremely difficult for me as i can't afford such an amount. 

> No matter how little you can hold today, please do. 0.001btc can turn up to be $50k in years to come, but it takes a very great deal of discipline, patient and persistence to breakthrough in the crypto world of bitcoin.

Thank you for the charge @onealfa

Now I agree with the fact that we see things differently and patience always pays. When you believe in what you are give it time and see how it goes..

for you

You are definitely the real 'OG' @onealfa. It was an amazing video and the fact that you made it long back with your daughter. Just saw your beautiful picture with your family and it's so cool that you have Twin Daughters.
Reminds me of Winklevoss twins who are so enthusiastic about bitcoin, blockchain & other cryptocurrencies. 

All those statements are still valid and the transactions are free, if not on Bitcoin Network then at least on Hive.

Would love to see such a video made for Hive. By the way, did you do the voiceover yourself in this one? If yes, then you did a great job on that as well. Nailed it!

How amazing it must be to practically be involved in crypto since its inception! If I'm not wrong, I believe I read you discovered bitcoin and stuck with it since 2011.

I loved both the video and the dinner table!

well i am here, and will continuing, sorry for your childdren, some times we believe that they continued with our legacy but it is to dificult,
well i review the video you should try to she will writes about hive, 
it is so dificult when you invited people and they do not feel good and do not share our convictions, i invited a friends and parners, but they write a little, and then they think well i am not sure about this and retorn to their normal network that do not paid nothing for their time.

I don't remember when BTC was 133 but i do remember when it was 3000 and i would consider that as a really good price too. I did invested at that price and do not regret that. Any profit - small of larger is a profit.

Sorry to hear you to daughters @iveta and @ligit have abandoned Steem and Hive, but we cannot expect the youth of today to be as wise as @onealfa.

That video is like an einstien, nostradamus or even better a Hawkens video, amazing predictions, but it is sad to see that the original BTC didn't continue on this path  for whatever reason.

I love all crypto, especially those I can earn from, Hive Leo, POB and of course Bitcoin Cash and Ethereum.

but of all these "BCH" Bitcoin cash is my first love, Why? you may ask because this is the first digital currency that has made a real improvement in my life and continues to do so, it is everything BTC was ment to be a P2P currency that can make real change in the ordinary lives of individuals. with fast transactions and the lowest gas or transaction fees

I don't normally talk or write with such emotion, but your article has been so inspiring that I felt you deserve a meaningful response, thank you for sharing and God bless your children, so that they may one day understand the importance of what you have tried to meaningfully teach them.

I am at that point now where I am trying to convince my children in a similar fashion, but find myself also loosing this battle, God give me the strength to ensure I work hard and do not loose the War for I could not bare to watch them struggle as I have have too in order to achieve some measure of success by today's term.

I hope you realize just how valuable these posts are? not only to Noobs but to others that have struggled in the fight for a long, long long and sometimes everlasting time.

Thank you for sharing and god bless your girls, I hope they soon learn from @onealfa s hard learned lessons, sometimes your old work can be the best, I would love nothing more to to be in a position to onboard 6 users at the dinning table.

Amazing stuff, you just cannot help but love it, Thank you for sharing...

Nice video. Its sure is neat way to look at BTC and I definitely think it will be worth much more in the future. The crypto space is still in the development stage and we have a lot of progress/price increase to go.

Wow I enjoyed watching the video,I believe been an early adopter of a cryptocurrency have so much benefits....@onealfa

> When Bitcoin was struggling to reach $150 USD. Ethereum was still not even invented...

I remember when they gave it away for free to promote it. In 2010 in Dusseldorf at a conference they gave us 50 each. What times those, it was still possible to mine at home.

>I will appreciate your comments on this our old work.

The video is very good, especially to be made by someone who was just starting out. I am a video editor and animator and the only thing I hope is that she is dedicated to making videos today. She showed talent in editing.

>Today some our early day statements sound funny, naïve and even wrong (free TX?)
But in those days it was all true. 

In those days the idea was to promote the idea of BTC and cryptocurrencies in general as much as possible. I wish many more had made videos with "little mistakes" like yours. It would have given cryptocurrencies more visibility earlier.

>Remember that game "Satoshi Dice"? Were you could send BTC transactions every few seconds, for a tiny fee, a fraction of one US cent?

I still have my account for the FreeBitco.in page 😅😂

'Gold on sterioids '


Heheh actually it is surprisingly accurate, but then again..the whitepaper disnt change. This seems like light years ago though!

This is my second bullrun and I am already experiencing it so different compared to the first one , but you here mister dinosaurus (no offense!!) Must see it whole different. So much has changed, and then again..jt hasn't!

Ha ha, fees are much higher now for the 'greatest invention since writing' :D

The 'once in a lifetime opp' thing was spot on - maybe the other 5 'steemians' around that table got themselves some BTC at least lol.. altho' I'm sure PapaAlfa would've put some aside for them!

Would I have been convinced/inspired if I had seen your vid around then? Well I came into crypto Jan 2018, had heard of BTC vaguely here and there before that, but without much context or detail. If I'd come across something like this - with a personal/amateur feel but well made and with funky videography/music and clear script (narrated in a soft, monotone and *exotic* accent :) - it would likely have made me *notice* BTC and consider it. 

....and mebbe I'd have become alfaKrunk if I had seen your vid in 2014/15/16 😂... but frankly bro, my head and heart were in shreds at the time and my attention was on the *inside* (actually, it was MY opportunity of a lifetime, for I came out of it fresh).

Also to remark is the relevance of the video to today, and that's pretty impressive for something so 'old' in a fast-paced world. It's still early days in terms of crypto adoption, but not *quite* as EARLY.

##### *How indeed can one know what one doesn't already know?*

Nice!

Also, since yours is a widely read blog, here - for anyone - are two BTC related vids that I found interesting. I had wanted to make a post about them but haven't got round to it yet. Apologies for dirtying this page with PooTube links :|

Hi @onealfa, you were just shared some LUV thanks to @eii. Holding 10 LUV in your wallet enables you to give up to 3 LUV per day, for free. See the LUV in your wallet at https://hive-engine.com or learn about LUV at https://peakd.com/@luvshares https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmUptF5k64xBvsQ9B6MjZo1dc2JwvXTWjWJAnyMCtWZxqM

Such a creative and motivational video that illustrate the purpose of bitcoins to mankind. If you permit I would like to share this video with my friends on WhatsApp, most just don’t seem to get the idea of cryptocurrency. 

I am sure this video will shed some light 💡 on why they can always trust crypto.

Is iveta still into video making?

Posted Using [LeoFinance <sup>Beta</sup>](https://leofinance.io/@mistakili/re-onealfa-4ijxah)

Oh, man @onealfa, I've just watched the video. I think your voice would remain a nightmare to the people who watched it way back in 2013 but didn't heed your advice. That point where you said 'Once in a lifetime chance' and had it echoing, I bet those who watched it especially the organizers of the competition who did not heed your advice would be hearing that voice and the echo in their dreams for years to come 😂😂😂

Truly, I pity them.

You guys did a great job, and you were able to create the mood with your voice and narration. But I'm happy I didn't get to watch this video in 2013, I'm almost sure I wouldn't have heeded your advice because I'm stubborn and by now I would have been haunted probably to insanity 😂😂
