Topic: Biggest personal bitcoin loss - page 13. (Read 8770 times)
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...
Probably only $15 spread out across a bunch of scamcoins, of which I 'invested' into and subsequently pulled out of too soon - or held too long & left with nothing 
9 bitcoin on JD and 12 bitcoins on various other gambling sites. Luckily I got rid off the gambling addiction for 1 year now. I'm actually making money now
I loss 0.05BTC on Primedice.
I used martingale and I did 0.2 bitcoin from 0.05.But I played until I lost them all
Play only what you can afford to lose

I lost somewhere around BTC30 with LTC-GLOBAL (BTCT.co) in 2013, which constituted some 60% of all my BTC holdings at that point of time. I am still cursing my decision to invest my coins in LTCGLOBAL.... Perhaps I got too greedy back then. Anyway... the lesson learnt the hard way. I am not going to invest again in any other investment scheme.
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
My biggest Bitcoin loss was 0.12 BTC some month ago by sending them to a wrong address 
very fortunate for those who have the address haha, 
0.12 btc is not such a huge price anyway. Once, a person transferred 2 btc and I thought those were my payments for my services regarding some company I was working for, but long story short, they weren't. I invested all of it on further investments and didn't stop counting money ever since, now the interests seem to drift from money, its all about being yourself and what you do.

I am not sure if I am putting this in the right section.
Anyway, what are some of your guys biggest bitcoin losses? Did many people here loss everything with Mtcox? For me it is online casinos. I do have a moderate gambling habit so it was bound to happen.

I lost bitcoin trying to earn some. Concretely I paid some bitcoin to buy hash power in a cloud mining site. I had earnings for two weeks and then bought again hash power (big error because I must earn firstly the bitcoin that has spent) and that week the cloud mining site was hacked (that's the story the owners told) and all my bitcoin get lost.
Everytime we discuss losing bitcoins and scamming is in the conversation, I always hear cloudmining way too often. The cloud mining industry fucked things up for bitcoin so bad, even affecting the minds and believe of bitcoin users when they invest their btc into a cloud mining product and end up getting scammed so badly, most of them losing half of their total savings. That's why I keep my personal money different.

I lost .1 BTC on BTCArbs when that was active.
For me it was the online casinos. I don't play so much anymore but last year I was going crazy on primedice; I can see how it can become an addiction for some people. I won a few times and thought I could always win. Lost over 1 BTC playing dice.
oops. Yes, gambling is pretty attractive if you don't treat it with a little strictness. Do not feel too disheartened, always feel that one day you will get that money back the next time you gamble, and gamble the money you can afford to lose. Gambling isn't as bad as it seems, its just not that good either. As much as anything involve money

never lost a BTC but spent them
what did you spend them on? Anything significantly costlier/bigger? I have often overspent my btc, on the most unrequired things in the life of a common man. But then again, bitcoin isn't as widely acceptable anyway. The only reason I spend bitcoins are the things I don't want anybody to know it belongs to mine, so my identity too remains anonymous with btc.
-0.1 BTC on bitoomba scam site
