Lost quite a bit in the early days when trying to exchange Bitcoins for either a Ukash or Paysafecard voucher.

because i lost in autobet feature in freebitcoin when i used faucet about 5 months ago. Luckly i never get scammed until today.If youre talking about faucet money then its free money to lose already, so technically you had no loss in the end lol.
But, these stories above me like mine are personal funds. Although you point out not being scammed, theres multiple scenarios that someone can lose bitcoins even if its not scams. Like not having a strong passphrase, to importing a old address, etc.
Its still a loss for the individual despite if he got free money or not.
Its the feeling of the loss and despite the amount may not be as big, it could of been a .1 btc or something that could of been grown further.

I sold a bunch of gold at the top in late 2013 (when btc was over 1k), and it got stuck in escrow while the price crashed. That equaled probably a $2,000 loss
by any chance did you use the btc to buy the gold 1st? or was it gold that you already had?
that 2k loss is huge.. thats a ton of money like 2 months of rent money.. i feell for you.
I did not use btc to buy it originally. I was trying to move from gold -> btc by just selling on cryptothrift. I (like a lot of people) got caught up in the dramatic rise occurring. Someone ended up buying everything I had for sale when the price was up over 1k. By the time it was delivered AND escrow was released price had already dropped significantly. Thats when I decided to keep holding (and thus furthered my losses to around 2k).
Investing in marscoin @ 1200 sat, now @ 150 sat...
i think you got the metrics wrong.. if its 0.001200? that isnt much. and it doesnt form a $2 mark value.
Unless you mean 1.200 btc then yeah its reasonable loss.

i lose more than 2BTC some one hack my email
i lose more than 2BTC some one hack my email
was it in the form of malware?
My only btc loss was from luckybit and even though I was winning the btc fees of sending to luckybit adds up, leaving me a lower balance. Its actually ridiculous, cause if I remember correctly I paid like .2 in btc fees.

about three years ago i decided to experiment a bit with bitcoin. I was keeping 1BTC but price was low for quite a long time. At the beginning it was complicated for me but perspective of such innovative currency was interesting. unfortunetly about the 'boom time' i found that i have lost my private key...
thats really sucks.
And its a shame you werent able to use it for anything, and something that most people overlook is the passphrase to their wallets as well or knowing to back up the btc wallet file.
I personally lost some bitcoin based on some bad deals by buying hardware from BFL when everything was overhyped.
Recently i lost more than 6 Btc on luckybit because of my bad habit of gambling so that is biggest lose in a day ever i made, it is hard for me to stop me from gambling
Gambling is hard to get rid offf... it takes a lot of time to get over it!
I agree, and to add, I think it's even harder to get rid of when you are gambling with Bitcoin. I mean it's so easy to gamble by using bitcoins nowadays. No registration, limits, nothing. There are some gambling sites where you don't even have to open an account (I am not gonna mention the names) you just send an amount to the certain address and if you win, your winnings are automatically transfered to the address of your choice.
I was amazed when I learnt all of that and this ease of use won't help gambling addictions at all!
I mean we can shrug it off still since the value is moderately low.
But if bitcoin was like 1,000 per coin, then Id say wow. But still a loss and its painful. I can only imagine if the value stayed at 1,000 that 6 btc would be a 6,000 loss..
the most I lost was like 2.4 btc on 1 roll on primedice and that felt gutted out losing it like less then 1 second.
If someone bought two very expensive pizza, Could be it a loss?
The I better don't tell here how much I paid to a couple of programmers who accepted Bitcoin... and I shouldn't mention all the wallets from the past of which I forgot the password. And I shouldn't talk about the harddrives which crashed and which I couldn't reconstruct....

my biggest loss comes for the accumulation of 2 years of gambling off and on primedice.
2.8 btc loss which could of been sitting in my wallet the entire time.
all the loss was from doing 90% bets thinking you can scalp .1 btc a week or something viable.
