What did it feel like buying your first BTC?

I finally took the plunge and bought my first BTC. Only $100 worth but it feels important.

I was always a sceptic of the whole cryptocurrency movement and for most coins, still am. I dismissed Bitcoin for having no intrinsic value etc. But after reading and learning more about what it stands for and especially in an age of increasing surveillance I realised that BTC does not derive its value from any intrinsic value but rather the price and ability to step out of the centralised currency system, which is becoming more difficult each day.

What did it feel like buying your first BTC and why did you do it?
