“如果当初，我买了一枚比特币……”相信许多人此刻都在这么想。看着它的价格高歌猛进，更悲伤的是那些本可以暴富的人。
“If I had bought a bitcoin,” I'm sure many people are thinking about it right now. The saddest thing about it is those who could have been rich.
而每当人们说起比特币，总绕不开“48万哥”——百度“比特币”吧中的一位传奇人物的故事。
And whenever people talk about Bitcoin, they can't get around the story of one of the legends of the “480,000” — the 100-degree “bitcoin” bar.
比特币吧是中国最大的比特币交流社区，得益于百度搜索提供的流量，比特币吧的帖子阅读量能达到数万甚至十万以上，比目前国内任何一个行业性比特币社区的流量都要大得多。
Bitcoin is the largest Bitcoin exchange community in China, and thanks to the traffic provided by a 100-degree search, bitcoin posts can be read in tens of thousands or more, much more than any industry in the country today.
比特币吧以讨论比特币行情涨跌与比特币本身是好是坏为主，偶尔也会有几篇技术性分析的文章，但很多都夹着私货。
Bitcoin, which focuses on discussing whether bitcoin is going up or down and bitcoin is itself good or bad, occasionally has several articles of technical analysis, many of which are private.
“48万哥”的称号就是来自这里。他在2014年1月28日开了一个帖，称将全家存了七八年的48万元房款用来买了100个比特币。
This is where the title of "480,000 " came from. On 28 January 2014, he made an announcement stating that 480,000 yuan had been deposited in the family for 788 years to buy 100 bitcoins.
他在贴中志得意满地说，“期待大赚一番，买房直接全款，运气好把我的车也换了。”
He was admiringly saying, "Looking forward to making a fortune, buying a full house, lucky enough to change my car."
看来这位老哥和大伙一样饱含着投资挣钱的伟大理想！ 假设这位老哥坚持到了现在一定是腰缠万贯了！
It looks like this old man is as full of the great idea of investing and earning money as everyone else!
另一个让老哥投入重金的导火索
Another trigger to get my brother into heavy gold.
然后就像所有玩币的兄弟一样，这老哥开始为价格波动操心。
And then, like all the money-playing brothers, the old man started to worry about price fluctuations.
看下老哥的决心！ 看来是准备打一场持久战了！（注意看评论！）
Look at my brother's determination!
没过几天，接连不断的负面消息爆出，先后几个国家不承认比特币的货币价值，甚至有比特币交易平台关闭、老板跑路的新闻。
A few days later, successive negative news broke out that several countries did not recognize the monetary value of Bitcoin or even the closure of the Bitcoin trading platform and the running of the boss.
一时间人心惶惶，比特币的价值一落千丈，从8000元暴跌到2000多元，低位浮动。
At a time of panic, the value of Bitcoin fell sharply, falling from 8,000 dollars to 2,000 grand, floating low.
这时候，贴吧里的人像打了鸡血一样，疯狂攻击、挖苦那个男人。
At that point, the man in the bar was madly attacking and sarcasming the man, like he had beaten chicken blood.
“傻逼了吧！哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈”
“早就说不能这么玩儿，我看你还怎么结婚！”
“哈哈哈哈哈哈就等着这一天呢！”
“楼主你出来啊，出来走两步啊！”
“兄弟你还活着吗？”
那时候还没开始流行“打脸”这个词。每个人都像疯了一样，面容扭曲地嘲笑这个男人，隔着屏幕都能看到他们兴奋又惊恐的惨笑着的脸。
The word "face" was not used yet. Everyone laughed at the man with a twisted face as crazy as they were, and there was an exhilarating, horrifying, grinning face on the screen.
圈内网友大部分不看好，纷纷表示“学费很贵”，劝他“少投一点”。他却坚信比特币的前景一片光明。
Most of the network’s users were unwelcome, saying that “fee fees are expensive” and urging him to “take less” – but he was convinced that Bitcoin’s prospects were bright.
对于冷嘲热讽的无视！（是不是像极了投资的你）
For sarcastic disregard!
看来老哥心态有些失衡了
Looks like I'm having a bit of an imbalance.
因为瞒着亲人把家当全都扔进了比特币市场，那哥们儿天天在帖子下面更新币值状态，分享心情。
Because his family threw everything into the Bitcoin market without knowing his family, the man updated his currency at the post every day to share his feelings.
帖子也聚集了越来越多的人气，大家都在帮他排疑解惑，给他打气。
The post also gathers more and more people, and everybody's trying to help him out and cheer him up.
又过了几天，男人更新的次数越来越少，但只要他一说话，底下就是骂他、嘲笑他的人，楼主心态有点崩。
Over the next few days, the number of updates by men has become less frequent, but as long as he speaks, he is being scolded and mocked, and the owner of the building is having a bit of a breakdown.
选择了半回避
I've chosen to avoid it.
男人还在时不时更新帖子，大多是在描述自己的生活状态，比如该怎么撒谎骗过未婚妻和父母、找谁去借钱补齐那几十万元的损失。
Men are also updating the post from time to time, mostly to describe their state of life, such as how to lie to their fiancée and parents, and to find someone to borrow money to make up for the hundreds of thousands of dollars lost.
看来老哥已经准备放弃了！
Looks like my brother's ready to give up!
山穷水尽疑无路，柳暗花明又一村？
There's no way out, willows and the village?
中间，行情一度回暖，涨回了3600元，许多网友为他高兴，但他仍坚持比特币能再到4800元，一个都不抛。2014年底是最灰暗的日子，他的账户跌到只剩19万。“挺住，别想不开啊。”有好心网友安慰他。
In the middle, it warmed back for a while, went back to $3,600, and many of his friends were happy for him, but he insisted that Bitcoin could reach another $4,800, and none of it. The end of 2014 was the darkest day, and his account fell to only 190,000. “Hold on, don't let it go.” Good friends comfort him.
老哥依然在坚持！
My brother's still holding on!
爆照准备长期更新 但这是老哥2014年的最后一次出现
It's a long-term update, but this is the last time my brother showed up in 2014.
转眼一年过去了到了 公元2016年的6月份！ 老哥又出现了
A year has passed since June 2016, when my brother showed up again.
2016年初，比特币再度回暖，到了3000元左右，坚持了两年的他终于按捺不住，割肉了。
At the beginning of 2016, Bitcoin warmed up again, reaching around $3,000, and for two years he finally lost his grip and cut his meat.
“币抛了，买房了。”，他在帖子中淡淡地回复道，在币市沉浮两年，48万变成30万后，这个ID从此再未露面。
“The currency dropped and the house was bought.” He replied lightly in the post that the ID had never appeared again after two years and 480,000 became 300,000 after the currency had sunk for two years.
楼主三个月前的更新，说换车了，吧友回复：“坚持住不卖可以换卡宴了”
The owner of the building updated three months ago, said it was a change of car, and my friend replied, "You can change the card dinner if you don't sell it."
如今，这个帖子的跟帖已有9000多，俨然成为贴吧一道风景，每天都有人光顾，为他而惋惜——坚守了两年，经历几轮涨跌，却还是错失了2017年的大牛市。
Now that the post has been followed by more than 9,000, it has become a good sight, and it has been visited every day, lamented and held for him — two years, several rounds of up and down, but still missing the Cattle City of 2017.
历史无法回头，世上没有如果和后悔药。安啦安啦，暴富靠命。
History can't go back. There's no medicine to regret. Calm down, the rich depend on their lives.
有人还以“48万哥”为原型写了小说。
Some also wrote novels for the prototype of “480,000”.
现在“48万哥”的示例也频繁出现在各财经频道关于比特币的文章里。但是人们都不愿相信，自己会像他一样不走运。
Now the example of "480,000" is also frequently found in the financial channels' articles about Bitcoin. But people don't want to believe that they're as bad as he is.
所以如果当初买了一枚比特币，今天真的能实现财务自由吗？
So if we had bought a bitcoin, would we really be free today?
你只看到了2017年比特币一帆风顺，一路飙升了翻了20倍，突破一币十万。
You've only seen a 20-fold jump in 2017 in bitcoin and a 100,000-dollar break.
但是
But...
你没看到2016年，世界最大交易所Bitfinex的12万比特币被盗空，多少人被杠杆逼得跳楼自杀？
You don't see how many of the 120,000 bitcoins of the world's largest exchange, Bitfinex, were stolen in 2016, and how many people were leveraged to commit suicide?
你没看到2015年，比特币大跌200美元后，多少比特币的爱好者们在深夜在家里默默吃煮挂面。
You don't see how many bitcoin fans at home at night at night eat and cook face after a 200-dollar drop in bitcoin in 2015.
你没看到2014年，贴吧老哥顶着巨大压力卖房48万炒币，苦撑5个月，最终割肉18万惨痛离场。
You didn't see 2014. My brother sold 480,000 quid for five months under heavy pressure, and eventually cut 180,000 pieces of meat and left.
你没看到2013年，12月份比特币高歌猛进，而中国比特币因为一纸禁令暴跌40%的一片哀嚎？
Didn't you see that December 2013 when Bitcoin sang up and that Chinese bitcoin fell 40% of the wailing over a ban?
假如你2013年入了比特币，99.99%的概率都没撑到2017年就已经在“深夜被痛苦折磨得无法入睡了“。
If you had entered bitcoin in 2013, 99.99 percent of the probability had not reached 2017, you would have been "sleep-in-sleep in the middle of the night."
但事实是...你避开了这些上述所有的风险，而且你还开心地玩了游戏，吃了比萨，买了iPhone X，岂不美哉？
But the truth is... you're avoiding all these risks, and you're having fun playing games, eating pizza, buying iPhone X, isn't it beautiful?
