[Asia Economy Reporter Sumi Hwang] Recently, as Bitcoin has experienced multiple sharp declines and cryptocurrency prices have fluctuated wildly, investors' worries are increasing. Amid this, on the 29th (local time), foreign media reported on the recent status of a Chilean man who entered the cryptocurrency market early and is enjoying a luxurious lifestyle.

According to the report, Da Vinci Jeremy, a Chilean entrepreneur who started investing in cryptocurrencies eight years ago, is living a lavish life despite the recent significant drop in prices of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. Reflecting on when he first invested in cryptocurrencies, he said, "At first, people around me discouraged me," and "People laughed at me back then, but in the end, I became a millionaire."

Jeremy stated on his social media (SNS) regarding the recent downturn, "There is nothing to worry about. It's a temporary decline," and "We will recover the money we lost."

Eight years ago, in May 2013, he uploaded a video titled "Please buy even $1 worth of Bitcoin" on his YouTube channel.

At that time, Jeremy was ridiculed for emphasizing Bitcoin investment, but he still did not hesitate to give Bitcoin-related advice to his channel subscribers. In the video, Jeremy said, "Please buy Bitcoin with the money you would spend on the lottery. In 10 years, you will be a millionaire," and "Stop living in fear. Invest even $1. Who cares if you lose that?" He also confidently stated, "In 10 years, you will definitely thank me."

Jeremy, who was once an ordinary developer, is known to have made a large fortune thanks to his early investment in Bitcoin. According to local media reports, he is estimated to have joined the millionaire ranks about 4 to 5 years ago. Although Bitcoin prices have been on a downward trend since May, Jeremy has consistently shared on social media his luxurious daily life visiting various tourist spots aboard his private jet and yacht.

When the cryptocurrency market was shaken by Tesla CEO Elon Musk's statement about "stopping Bitcoin payments," Jeremy also said, "Never be shaken." Furthermore, regarding the recent volatile fluctuations in cryptocurrencies, he advised, "Do not be swayed by the ups and downs. You will never build wealth like Musk if you do."
