I'd send a note to myself on the day before bitcoin was announced to build a mining machine, invest $100 in coin, and wait until it peaks at $20,000, after starting out at fifty cents, then cash out. That would be many tens of millions of dollars that would come in handy in the future. Too bad hindsight is 20/20 and my time machine is broken.

    Bitcoin took quite a while to increase in value from fifty cents to one dollar. Having a week's lead time to build my machine should be adequte. A year is too long, and unnecessary in this case.

    Speaking of which, I send a note to you to look in to quantum resistant cryptocurrency, because I'm almost positive that if cryptocurrency still has interest in a few years, quantum resistance ones will be the only ones people will be able to use, because quantum computers will be able to crack the private keys of the vulnerable ones ones (over 99% of cryptocurrencies now).
