I first got into Bitcoin in 2016 started to learn as much as I could before setting up my Coinbase account late Autumn.
Bought LTC first then my first piece of Bitcoin early 2017 .
Have diversified since made some money not life changing but am here for the long haul 😊
Topic: At What Age You Got into Bitcoin and also Trading? - page 2. (Read 478 times)
First I started trading on financial markets and the story behind it is just like the story you see in many other people, When I was 20y old I had a trader friend who started trading on Forex years ago but when I saw him after years he told me about how trading help him with his life so I became motivated and then started learning about trading on financial markets but I failed. After years when I was 25y old for my birthday, my girldfielnt gave me a special gift, she gave me a letter with some words about bitcoin and recovery seeds to a bitcoin wallet, then I started trading cryptocurrencies and bitcoin after that they but I mostly prefer holding and doing long term investments.
I cannot say about myself, but I have mentored someone who really got into Bitcoins when he was 15-16 years old. I remembered when he needed some money for his needs(for his personal needs) and his parents didn’t give money for it. So he decided to go online and learn how to make money. I introduced him with Bitcoins at around 2015 or 2016. Instead of trading or investing he joined gambling and did some freelancing. The work he was doing made him collect Bitcoins and using that he used to Gamble or just save. Currently I don’t have any contact with him, but I came to know that he bought the thing that he wanted with the help of Bitcoins.
What you did must be much appreciated by him because when he was new he didn't know how to earn and you showed him a way. Like you, not everyone wants to guide each other or do good to each other. You did a great job there by helping him even if you are not currently in contact. We often forget that those who stand by us in times of danger are not in touch with us when times are good, or we are far away from them. We often forget those people who stood by us in times of trouble and helped us in the past, These have become a bit of a norm these days that we often don't think about. Right now the fact is that he is now financially very prosperous because Bitcoin is holding of your advice but has forgotten you. Again there are many people who may or may not remember you but due to busyness or different work, they can't contact you although this changes with time.
According to me mostly people that came in crypto are mostly young aged people that range from 15 to 30 years.
Nah. I was 75 years old when I got came into crypto.
I even got to know bitcoin and this forum when I was 19 years old, maybe relatively young when I graduated from high school. Took me 1 year to study this forum and bitcoin.
You probably already have lots of grandchildren who know about bitcoin and understand what their grandfathers did with this forum.
And I have seen fewer old people that first got into crypto.
Perhaps that's because you know a lot of young people, and you don't know a lot of old people?
Should we be doing a poll to find out the ages of the bitcointalk forum users and how many boys and girls are here?
Or if there has been a poll about the age of users and the number of genders in this forum, let me know.

I heard about Bitcoin in 2016. I didn't think much about Bitcoin at first. Later, my friend bought a little bit and sold it after Bitcoin rose. He explained to me that it was an investment to speculate. I started to study Bitcoin. Later I classified Bitcoin as a store of value like gold. Bitcoin is worth more than its price.
Although some older people are reluctant to accept the new, that does not mean that cryptocurrencies are only for young people like you. You are underestimating the elderly, as long as they have a passion for finance, a passion for technology, anyone can participate in cryptocurrencies. Our world is colorful, don't think so simple.
I am a middle aged person, and the people I know are investing in bitcoin even bigger than me. Most people I know who are investing in bitcoin have no one under the age of 35.

I know bitcoin if I'm not mistaken at the age of 22 years. but I started trading and investing in bitcoin recently, and I can say that I don't have much experience with bitcoin and crypto. that's why I joined this forum to add to my insight about bitcoin. in my opinion there are many people who know bitcoin, old people and young people too.
If we talk about the age of people who first got into bitcoin around 2009, it would be teens or people between the ages of 20 and 30 because they were mostly on the internet at the time and definitely discovered it, but as the years passed, a lot of older people got into bitcoin and also became experts. I don't know the age of the folks here in the forum, but based on their knowledge, I am sure that they have been into bitcoin for a long time, and the way they explain things is like those old people who are very detailed.
This question should be treated flexibly, because everyone has different ways of receiving education. At the same time, some people are still confused at the age of 15, but some people can already develop products.
How do we know that Satoshi Nakamoto is not a 15-year-old kid or an 80-year-old grandpa?

So at that, I will take that statement of only young people getting involved in cryptocurrency as just ab assumption because not far from the fact
I came across with this technology when I was 15, that I think was way back 2013, but I did not put that much attention into it. It was in 2016 where my interest towards this industry grew; made some cents out of faucets and in 2017 with airdrops. Then afterwards signature campaigns and trading. As far as I remember, I've learned trading "late" 'coz it is a bit complex and even at this point I am still not that 'good' into it. Sinply proves that there are no easy ways to earn profit in this industry in contrast with the impression created towards it by some non-crypto users. In my general experience, I'd say this technology really helped me a lot with finances and as a curious individual. Some people might have regrets of not investing early, but I think it is just the same thing; knowing it on its early years won't mean that you'd invest right away.

You're right, I'm on this range when I've first known about bitcoin and started to trade. Yeah, I started to trade first with bitcoin/crypto rather than with the stocks.Those were the good old days and it's fun to think on where bitcoin is right now. Too many good times to remember when a lot of people will just say no when you're about to introduce bitcoin.
And people that have listened or have opened their minds about bitcoin are now reaping the benefits from it.
I was about the same age as the OP when I heard about bitcoin. I didn't invest in it then because I was too young and naive. Since I was a college student then, I thought I was going to be distracted by it. I just wanted to focus on my studies, get good grades and graduate. It wasn't until 5 years later that I took it seriously having lost money in some shit coin project which some of my buddies had encouraged me to invest in. In my country, young people are more receptive to bitcoin than the older generations. Maybe this is because they understand it better or they see it as a way to escape the rat-race and oppressive government.
I was my self Wondering that there a re a lot of people who gotten in crypto makret in how much age?
As for as I am concerned I was only 17 years old in 2017 when I got some news about Bitcoin and It took me almost 3 years to learn and do something good for me and also my future.

This does not matter that much do not you think? Now it is true that a younger person will have a longer time on average than an older person to invest in bitcoin and to enjoy its benefits, but this is true for any other investment and not only bitcoin, what matters is that you recognize in bitcoin an alternative to the fiat system or at least realize it is a good investment and then you take the necessary steps to invest in it, and anyone can do that regardless of their age.As for as I am concerned I was only 17 years old in 2017 when I got some news about Bitcoin and It took me almost 3 years to learn and do something good for me and also my future.

Older people have the capacity to invest in Bitcoin. They are just quiet and do their thing silently while younger people tend to be noisy and publish all their crypto activity on social media. They are also very active in participating in surveys while older people are bz analyzing the market and researching good bitcoin start-ups to invest in. I do think that there are more older people who are actively participating in the Bitcoin market than what the survey says so saying mostly the 15-30 age bracket is the majority of the crypto population is somehow refutable, especially the 15 -18 years old bracket.
The older people, OP, are not in high numbers because they've embraced the traditional finance system, and are not deeply into new technologies like bitcoin. A major number of older persons still find it difficult to use some social media apps, introducing them into bitcoin would be a hassle and they'll make lots of mistakes. The few of them in this market are tech savvy and understands the goal of bitcoin. Additionally, old people shouldn't go into a risky investment like bitcoin; life savings is what most of them got left after retirement. Throwing them in bitcoin is not a good decision. On the contrary, younger persons are in the era of bitcoin and digital currencies, so their numbers are expected to be higher than older people. And the young investors see many reasons to join bitcoin and understands them easily. However given a little time, the young people of today would be older and such disadvantages won't exist anymore.

been spending up your time on engaging on something which is unpredictable then you would really be able to have a good grasps to it.Trading isnt something that you could handle it out on a short time, you would be experiencing lots of trials and errors along the way before you could really be having a good grasps to it.People should really be removing into their minds that engaging or dealing up with this market is easy.
You would soon realize it on the time that you would be making out some mistakes and errors which is something that inevitable and this is why you should really be that realizing off these things.

I never got into trading. Was in my early 30s when I bought my first bitcoin and became a part of the community. I wish it was a bit earlier as I'd love to be one of those 2011-12 early adopters who could mine on their PCs, but that's life. I could also buy Tesla stock 10 years ago and be a millionaire and my parents would say they wish they bought Microsoft in the 90s 
You're never too late to invest. You may be too late for one thing but another one pops up in its place. Even IBM who most old timers consider a failure of the computer industry because it lost 2/3 of its value in the early 90s made people 5x in the end. If you were patient with it and didn't sell you made money on it.
The most important things when you invest are avoid scams and have patience.
