Topic: Are there anyone who's been in the market since 2014? (Read 235 times)
I'm only almost a year and a half. But I know about cryptocurrency since about 2014.. I would like also to know from people who were in hard times. Were there bounty hunters back then?
I think there are thousands of people from 2014, even I have seen someone from 2012 here who is still active. He had mined BTC at that time at a cost of $2 only and still he is holding those. If you visit the Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion, you will find a lot of users from 2012.
From what I have heard, back then it was much worse, as it lasted for almost 3 years. The prices dived by almost 85% (from $1230 per coin to $200 per coin). Hope this time it won't be that long.
well yes but i do not think that everything was that bad nd we will see a lot lf things in the future to compare them to past times I was wondering, are there people here who have been through the previous bear market? Would be nice to hear some stories about the general consensus back then.
Is it the same? Is it worse? Lots of panic?
i am not here since tayt gimes but i would really like to do that as i think it is cool to be here since the very heginning of this era Is it the same? Is it worse? Lots of panic?

everywhere the same, because the market is cyclical. you can see the same in the market of Internet companies formation.
I entered last year fully but had heard at least of bitcoin in 2014, at that time I found it to be something very complicated that only interested programmers, I regret it now because still at that time I could mine some good coins with the modest equipment that I still had.
I just found out about this direction a year ago, and I'm sorry, because I could make a lot of money, I saw it on YouTube, but didn’t pay attention to it. 
I think that there are a lot of persons that have been in the industry since 2014 and way before, and these people are the ones who have benefitted more from the maarket. It is a sad thing that I didn't get aware of the market in due time, by now, I would have been counting my millions in cryptocurrency.
I am new here, not very new. I am here from 2017 that only one year i am with you. from my joining i am studying a lot to know more and more about Cryptocurrency. This is a very potentials marketplace.
I am very sorry. I new here. I am here from 2017, just one and half year. If you have any need, I can help you.You can ask me. Thank you.
I don’t know enough information about this. Because I am new here. I am also searching this type of people. I have no enough experience.

I have been in the electronics market since 2014. At that time, investing in electronic money was very good. Campaigns pay very high, the participation time is also shorter. Money is paid very quickly. Now making money is hard, down the coin. Is it the same? Is it worse? Lots of panic?
I've been in crypto for approximately a year now, and there have been a few times even throughout that short period where people had professed the end of Bitcoin was near. This is just a bigger version of the common dip, when you look over a period of several years, the effects of this dip will be inconsequential.
The market is very though now compared to then, everything was quite easy and simple Then, I miss those days!

That is a very good question, most of the Legendary members were probably around, but if they had any luck they are all probably millionaires drinking Daiquiri in some sunny beach. I think that the panic is something that is increasing nowadays because many people are investing the money that they cannot afford to loose.
Yes, and just as many think now, that the markets will never recover and that this is the end of crypto.
Experiencing Bitcoin going from 1100-1200 USD to 200-250 USD was very disheartening, lost all hope in crypto's potential for a few months. Coming out of that bear period, while still being motivated by crypto, the hardcore enthusiast's became millionaires.
I'm still in crypto because of my love and passion for blockchain tech, and enjoy assisting/growing new coins with new entrepreneurs entering this field. But, greed and lack of knowledge reigns dominate in this climate, and it will only continue to get worse.

No, I haven't experienced it however. But I know I've been through the bull advertise of final year. Presently I am encountering the bear showcase this year. Perhaps typically the showcase.
My first contact with crypto was LTCgear scam in the end of 2014.
LTC was the first coin i bought to invest in that nicely built scam
and received for few months some nice BTC-s until it run dry.

Unfortunately, I was not in such a market, but my friend told me a lot about him. And he said that he was constantly panicking. Now he does not pay any attention to the bear market in general, because he is sure that the bull market will come.
Must have, but may not be able to see your message. If early participants insisted on investing in coins, I think they might not spend time on the forum, then they should be very rich. They are more willing to enjoy life.
For me, I have been in the space since July last year so, I went through the big China FUD and the December bull run. Other than that, I have no prior experience. We can read archives but that's not the same I guess. 
Same for me, came into the space at about the same time, around June ending. Experienced a lot within a short while and it was a new world to me altogether. I belong to some crypto groups on telegram and whatsapp and all the early adopters on those platforms tell is how much they regret the fact they didn't buy as much Bitcoin as they could at the time as they didn't know it would be something of much worth. As regards the similarities of the current market situation and that year, none of such info has come to the fore.
Infortunately, it is not me, in the another case I had invested so much money in crypto to become so rich person today 
Anyway, I am lookking forward that we are not least.

I want to believe there are such people in existent as there are so relaxed and calm investors even in this bearish state
But why do you need them ?
Maybe to get advises and insights ?
I guess I need that too
In 2014, people could not think that bitcoin would grow to 20,000 dollars. Then they thought only about how to make money on it. Nobody spoke about trends and like that.
I am in crypto since 2014 but i dont know anything about trading i just collect bitcoin in faucets so i cant really tell how was it back then, it was like 100 usd for 1 bitcoin so cheap but didnt have the chance to buy atleast 1 btc since i have no idea it will be valuable today. I am regretting for the rest of my life.
I have not experience this till now. The last year market is a bull market. This year market also seems to be good for me. This year bitcoin make this market stable. I feel that feeling that I am here for long time.
I remember correctly when bitcoin is still around $600 - $1000 (on mercatox), back then there's a rumor going round that bitcoin got hacked, many people selling their BTC and got dropped to $300. that's when stellar lumens is launched and giving coin for free.
I was there during the dotcom crash which was a lot worse, it took many years for the NASDAQ to recover from that horrific loss, I believe crypto will rebound much faster though.

Its not comparable thou way back 2014 is much smaller Market Cap much less coin or token listed and the BTC price is just 200 dollars no Ethereum and much smaller of people who use cryptocurrency. Is it the same? Is it worse? Lots of panic?
It is not me, I am not for so long here, since 2016 or something near about this. But I have learnt so much that I have a feeling that I am here for 10 years.

I haven't experienced it yet. But I know I've been through the bull market of last year. Now I am experiencing the bear market this year. Maybe this is the market. Maybe this is a samsara.
