1) Conbase was never a bitcoin company. They'll sell you whatever will make them a profit. 2) Bcash is a centralized scam, designed to overtake success of Bitcoin by using propaganda to confuse newcomers. Decentralization matter. Avoid both.

I entered bitcoin in 2010 and left my daily job in 2011. But I was forced to sell most of my coins in dip @ 2USD/BTC to pay for servers and keep @slush_pool running. 300USD was a lot of money for many people back then and thinking that everybody must be filthy rich is dangerous.
Andreas is one of the most eloquent speakers on the topic of Bitcoin, but if he had invested even $300 in bitcoin back in 2012, he’d be a millionaire today.
