If the cryptomonas today have the wind in their sails, it is in large part thanks to the Bitcoin. When it was launched, many of us could have invested when it was not very expensive. Those who took the risk, and who have continued to believe in it, are today very happy. This is the case of Erik Finman.
Erik Finman had made a bet with his parents. If he became a millionaire before he was 18, they were no longer forced to go to school. Fortunately, the Bitcoin is now at its highest, at around $ 2,700. The 403 Bitcoins of his wallet are worth a whopping $ 1.09 million!
It was in 2011 that Erik Finman began to invest, while the Bitcoin cost only $ 12. He knew that, as with all currencies, the value would fluctuate, but he always kept confidence: "Personally, I think the Bitcoin will be worth several hundred thousand or even a million dollars," he told CNBC. Some experts predict a value of $ 100,000 within ten years.
Erik Finman was only 12 years old in May 2011 when he invested $ 1,000 as a gift from his grandmother and his brother Scott. In 2013, he sold everything, the Bitcoin was worth $ 1,200. With this $ 100,000 in his pocket, he then launches an online education company called Botangle before selling it to an investor. The man offered him $ 100,000 or 300 Bitcoins at the time when the cryptomonnaie was worth only $ 200.
Convinced that the Bitcoin will win in the near future, Erik Finman opts for the Bitcoins rather than the dollars. Successful bet. His Bitcoins wallet is worth more than $ 1 million! Not bad is not it ?
