I've got some FOMO. As bitcoin becomes more mainstream, it may never go back down to that level.

I also think it is fairly likely that bitcoin falls out of favour to another crypto, at some point. I have always liked to invest is business which are dominant in the market. Companies which have a strangle hold for one reason or another. I don't see that bitcoin has that. Fickle investors won't have brand loyalty. Tech moves on quickly. But it has held strong this long, so who knows. All guess work.

From what I've read, Bitcoin does have the first adopter/mover advantage. ETH may get there but bets are its Bitcoin and Ethereum, the others are also rans right now.

China is creating its own digital currency so I can see that could be a player. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the bigger US companies create their own. But for now, it's those 2 from what I know.

But yeah, I'm optimistic in long term future just not sure if the market is stable enough right now for an investor (vs trader).
