At this moment no, but I had it for some time last year, when the price was 400-500$ (maximum I had ~1.3 BTC)

I never quite understood threads such as this bragging about how many BTC you have.

I would change it to something like "How did you get your first bitcoin".  Then it is a interesting story not just yea I have X BTC.

I think people find it reassuring to know that the majority have modest amounts. The real swinging dicks are wise enough to keep their mouths shut.

laugh

yep the real "swinging dicks" would be chuckling at the discussion of putting 1 BTC in cold storage.  I hope one day it is worth that effort for just one bitclam

no i didn't invest anything i used the money earned there to buy more mining equipment(actually i rent mining with miningrigrental) and that's it, my profit was growing every day

then you could use bigger mining connected to more account to earn more, with a g-blade it was possible to mine with 16 account without the need of 160 euro

To make it simple you had money and then you gave it to someone for hardware (or hosted hardware, it doesn't matter). This means at that given moment your coins were in someone else's possession and you were given a piece of hardware that was supposed to bring you profit and it did, but there was a chance it would not. Even if you used the coins earned on that site you were reinvesting your previous profits, the money you could as well cash out and buy something else.

no man i didn't invest like i've said, i started with one gpu in their site, then with that i made profit, which i used to buy more HW then again the profit raised and i used those to expand the mining, in the end i turned few euro in 10k or more

there was no risk because you were payed daily, if they sjut down one day i'll lose only the electricity of that day, would have been an insignificant loss...
You made profit that you could've cashed out, but instead used the money to buy more, which means you reinvested the profits. If somebody gives you money and you decide to buy mining shares it's still an investment, even if you got the money from thin air.
It's a common misconception. If you lend money to someone in hope of profit and he ends up returning it without interest you actually lose money even though you have exactly the same amount, because you lost time and your money didn't bring you profit in that given time. Time is money! Wink

i never said that i could not cash out, where did you read this? i could in fact withdraw everything at any time, but i used to gain more plain and simple, also investing money out of thin air, isn't the same as investing your own money that you acquired through hard work you know

yeah, nobody is going to reveal their real bitcoin stash amount for a random question on a forum!

if it were some kind of study , and wanted to prove anything with showing results to the public i am sure many of them would come forward and participate but nobody likes to answer a random question with no additional information.

It is impressive how many people here are into bitcoin but don't have 1.

I want to make three comments:

  • The beginning is hard for everyone.
  • If you can't hold your bitcoins it's not a bitcoin problem, it's a problem with your lack of financial education.
  • Casinos are a guaranteed way to lose money.

Anyone else has at least 1 bitcoin?

Thank you for the answers so far!

yes a little more 1 btc, 10% of my income each month goes into BTC. Investing long term (years) instead of short term (months). I'm pretty certain it will out perform my traditional retirement account.

You joined this site in 2012. Is your response for real or a joke to make fun of poor people?

Maybe he spent his coins along the way to help it become what it is today. Being around for a long time is no guarantee of being loaded. Lots of people sold up early or got scammed too. Others just use it purely as a currency and never hold.

I do have quite a few bitcoins, but I suck badly as a trader - and the number of BTC is decreasing steadily. Even if I'm aware of this, just owning coins is boring if you have it as somewhat of a hobby. I'm pretty sure I will eventually go BTC broke due to this.

amatuers.

I have 1 bitcoin on a paper wallet printed direct from my local ATM. Is this safe?

Take a picture of the QR code or private key and post it on here so we can check  Grin.

Seriously, I'd check the balance to see if it still there but I'd personally move it to a safe wallet as soon as I received it just incase.
