When it survived 2018, then 2020 crash, then China bans, then FTX and just kept coming back stronger. That’s when I knew.

Mine was actually during that whole China mining ban thing back in 2021. Everyone was freaking out about hashrate dropping and saying this was finally it, Bitcoin was done for. I remember checking the charts every day thinking maybe this time they were right
But then watching the network just… adapt? Miners moving operations, difficulty adjusting, everything rebalancing itself without any central authority stepping in to fix it. That’s when it clicked for me that this thing really is antifragile like people kept saying. Made me realize all those “Bitcoin is dead” headlines I’d been reading for years were missing the point completely
The price stuff is just noise compared to watching the actual network prove it can handle whatever gets thrown at it
