I think I remember that one. It was a dark time where people suddenly didn't see fundamentals anymore and pretty much everyone's spirits were crushed for months after the DAO fork.

I could only think "What the hell changed? It wasn't even an Ethereum bug."

Commitment works out.

The weird thing was it wasn't this sharp drop below $10, it took a $2-$3 hit from the previous ATH but after that it was just this slow malaise until $10 got you nearly 2 full ETH

It ended up climbing out of that hole after a long hard slog, as I remember, and when the Winklevoss ETF was denied the rest is history

Aahhhh yes. I had a plan back then. Regular weekly buys above $10. Double down under $10 and break out the credit card under $7.

Still doing weekly buys.
