We live in the world of billionaires bitcoiners-where mega corporations and sovereign governments pile up the set, and the hyper-capitalized prophilation firms divided the difference.
It is easy, then, feeling small in bitcoin location. But for every story about Gigachads like Michael Sayler, there are countless untold stories about regular people that have touched the world through bitcoin.
Today’s legend is an incarnation of Isaac Miller, Bitcoin Event. A living reminiscent is that bitcoin is the first and most important for the person; It all comes down how you exploit it.
Bitcoin legends – Isaac Miller
You probably know Isaac from his famous video: I reacted to bitcoins to break $ 100 in 2013.
Miller said in April that year, “This is here, seeing history. Bitcoin is now up to $ 111. It is an all -time high, and it continues,” Miller said in April of that year, talking directly with the camera in his hand.
“I have seen that it has broken three times today, it has gone up to $ 110, and it is most that it is.” Miller roamed around his chair to fit his PC screen into the shot.
“It’s ridiculous. Final trade: 189 bitcoin for $ 111. It’s amazing for me. Just look at this graph, you look at this graph, it’s the last three hours.”
Miller road The years ago started for tech and bitcoin. He grew up in a small field in the northern Michigan built by his great grandfather, where he learned to help even while feeding the goats.

Miller was home school and included his extra energy into entrepreneurship. At the age of eight, he pulled a car – “Isaac’s lunch wagon” – around the city, selling lunch in local businesses, supported by every mother’s cooking.
This drive turns into learning to code as a teenager, making Miller launched a digital media project from his bedroom.
His growing portfolio of web experience played him a role as a county coordinator for Ron Paul’s Presidential campaign in 2008 – “Creating websites and designing graphics, organizing debate and directing television advertisements, streaming to interact on private jets from campaign bus!”
Suddenly, Miller looked deeply into liberal circles and formed relations in international technology. This was when a friend introduced him to bitcoin, shortly before the beginning of 2011, when BTC did not reach the dollar equality for the first time.
Miller clearly did not buy any bitcoin at that point. He showed BitcointockTwo years later, ready to make a splash with a thread: “$ 20,000 in the bank, should I invest?”
“I have more than $ 20,000 sitting in just one account. Is it a good idea to invest something or everyone in bitcoin? I am somehow looking to stick it to the central banking system, and if I can make it a few rupees by doing it, all are better.”
A user asked intelligent questions: How much will you be affected by losing $ 20,000, and how much will you affect yourself to start BTC with you?
Miller replied: “I currently have no bitcoin, I have actually started looking into bitcoin a few days ago. I am not thinking $ 20,000 to start, but I am ready to invest a part of how it works.”
“It makes me feel as if I am already a tade if I was in the most profit, but I am still optimistic about where Bitcoin is going. I am only 21 so $ 20,0000 is enough in my mind, I am working on changing it.”
Miller finished the option to start with just $ 2,000 and created an account with Mount Goks in March 2013 – it would collapse about 10 months ago – when Bitcoin changed her hand to about $ 90.
He would never have publicly talked about whether he used to sting Mount Goks Debacle. But the $ 2,000 of the bitcoin purchased around the time of that thread was converted into 22.22 BTC – currently a price of about $ 2.5 million.
And this was only 10% of Fiat which Miller wanted to deploy as a central bank opposition.

Last year, Miller rebuilt his famous 2013 video for an advertising campaign with the coinbase. Here they are shoulder to shoulder.
In the next nine years, Miller will not post Bitcoin. His YouTube feed mostly performed his music – until February 2021, when bitcoin was first in the middle of a demon rally for $ 60,000.
One in Video Topic: “Did I hodal? Questions on everyone’s mind,“Miller set the record directly:
“What kind of question is?
“And I keep buying more. I buy bitcoin every week. I buy Uniswap every one week. I bought Uniswap at $ 2 and it’s at $ 20 like three months.
For that more, Miller would be a bitcoin legend forever. Stay to see Isaac Supply shock podcast Soon!
