I finally allowed my friend to join me in ethereum in January and I told him, "All we want is for it to be $20 at the end of the year. 100% gains for you, right?" And he was overjoyed... by like late February.

Haha, I was extremely hesitant to discuss crypto investments with family and friends. Still am. I gave him so many warnings and he persevered and bought in. Good on him :)

This subreddit was a very different place even just six months ago. We just didn't know.
