The first time I had bitcoin was around 2013, I had my first job I bought a little. I remember being too excited about it, I watch the market price most of the time and watch my investment go up and down. It's a mixed emotion since I know little about bitcoin during that time and I had to do my own research since I don't know anyone who knows about bitcoin during that time. As time goes by I found a group of people who shares the same interest and that group led me to this forum. Now I share my knowledge about cryptocurrency to those who are interested in it and those who are asking me questions about it.
First time I had Bitcoin that was almost 5 years ago. My mean 2017. At that time I have heard from Google blog. And than at that times I was working on YouTube. And that. When I started Digging Btc than it caught my attention and finally in 2017 I had bought BTC And till now it has changed my life very well.

For you how was your own reaction/expression in your first time of purchasing and owning bitcoins, was it so different? I would love to know!
I started with shitcoins and saw hell before eventually buying bitcoins. If I remember correctly, it wasn't a feeling of excitement I had but that of relief. Relief that I had escape shitcoin hell. The excitement that I had was in seeing my investment 2x at that time and taking profits. The excitement was also in using  the profits in getting a laptop computer and some of the other fine things of life.
I can relate to that worst first experience with shitcoin many of us started on that not even though we were well knowledge about Bitcoin and it decentralization, my experience of owning bitcoin came early as adoptor of Bitcoin but then along the way, the worst happen.

We went all in to altcoin after the etheruem blockchain came onboard and that mark the beginning of my confusion and losing of my entire portfolio, But then after realizing that altcoin were just a total time waiting I redirected my.focus back to Bitcoin and I am doing good now.
The idea I guess behind investors not buying Bitcoin on their first investment is its price which might be intimidating. If you're a small investor ofcourse you won't be ablr to buy 1BTC in an instant and it would be more welcoming on your eyes to buy coins with low market value and being to have a decent amount of it not knowing that a small amount of Bitcoin is the same with buying a quantity of small tokens ( except for the idea of higher tendency to earn profit; that would depend on the demand of the token). Bitcoin among ither cryptos would put you in a safer place if you've chosen long term investment. But for short term, altcoins would be more profitable (if you would be able to invest on profitable ones).

First reactions can vary, and unless a person has a recording or a diary entry of it, we can remember it wrong and say something that isn't how it actually happened. I don't have a diary or a recording, so I can't be sure, but I think my reaction was being inquisitive but somewhat sceptical. My first BTC was through a signature campaign, and I didn't understand how the numbers on the screen can really be worth something if you can't have a physical version of them and if tons of people would not accept this as payment. I was wondering why some people do value it and are willing to spend actual money or exchange actual goods for it. I don't think I was excited, but I was perplexed and perhaps amused.

After every process and the said amount of bitcoin was purchased successfully into her account, immediately there was this expression of the feeling of joy the lady expressed with a wide smiles that seem unending and I was amazed at such level of excitement she showed.
The excitement she showed is similar to the excitement that comes with achievements or achieving something that you have planned. We all express our excitements differently, so while some people may have been composed and not have shown any emotion after their first successful purchase of bitcoin, some others are unable to contain and hide their joy.

For you how was your own reaction/expression in your first time of purchasing and owning bitcoins, was it so different? I would love to know!
The first time I purchased bitcoins was on a Ponzi scheme, I didn't know what it was exactly, but the intention of Ponzi was to make money, so I felt happy that I was making moves. My joy however changed in a few days after all my bitcoins including what I had gotten via crowd funding was gone. The second time I got bitcoins after my first experience, I was happier knowing that I knew better now and my bitcoins were safer.

What I remember was the first time I bought bitcoin in a not too large amount because I didn't fully understand it and I also felt normal, because there weren't many of them.
So I don't really care about that either.
and after a few weeks the price of bitcoin went up and this is where I was happy and also surprised when I saw the bitcoin that I had when I clicked my money balance increased 5x and this is the first time this has happened and makes me even more excited to increase my knowledge about bitcoin and also buy it back when the price goes down, and at that time i only know buy low and sell high and over time i know everything about bitcoin and others thoroughly.

When I first bought and owned bitcoin, my reaction was normal and nothing different. What's different is that at that time, I dared to buy bitcoin with my own money while people didn't know what bitcoin was. There was no extraordinary feeling then because, maybe at that time, the price of bitcoin was not as high as it is now.

But when the bitcoin price increased, and I looked at my bitcoin value then, I was very surprised because I never imagined that the bitcoin price could soar. That's one of the things that made me stick with bitcoin as my main investment.

Me too, I remember the first time I bought bitcoin, and the price of bitcoin was around $300. It wasn't a high price, and I didn't feel special until my bitcoins suddenly almost doubled in value in just a few months. I was really surprised and happy, the feeling at that time was indescribable.
Before coming to crypto, I also invest in stocks as well as forex, so I find it quite normal. But until I make a profit, because finding double profits in the stock market is almost very difficult and takes a long time to achieve.

What’s the main reason why you purchased your Bitcoin? Most people usually feels excited because of the possible profit for the future price. I didn’t undergo on this stage because I get my first Bitcoin through faucets and campaigns here. I just have the experience on buying Bitcoin when the P2P on exchange using our local wallet is already available but I’m surprise that you are not excited by the time you are making a not so typical investment of your life.

I believe if I manage to experience purchasing Bitcoin by the time it was not popular. I will be more excited on my first purchase rather than when the price pump because I’m expecting already that the price will grow in the future that’s why I’m investing on it.

Mine was never forgotten because the first few bitcoins I had back then were from faucets and it was hard-earned because I gathered them slowly for about a week. I used them to try trading for the first time and it was an amazing experience that I never forget until now. But the bad thing I did was I migrated the investment to cloud mining and added some money from my pocket which turned out to be the worse experience I had with bitcoins because it became a scam after a few weeks of inputting my money there. Back then I never knew the two were completely different from each other until I learned all the necessary information right here in this community.

There are different feelings when you hold your bitcoins for the first time like some people are happy they have invested in it and will get returns in the future but for some it's financial freedom breaking the central chain of authority and they can spend their funds where it is accepted and can make inter transfer from their wallets to anyone without any third party software.So for me it was mix feeling of happy,joy and excitement and it is still the same now.

Mine was more of excitement as it meant something special to me because it came as a reward for my passion of writing. I did some write up for this site and they could only pay with US account, PayPal or Bitcoin. I didn't have the first two but already knew about Bitcoin so I setup my wallet, got my address and sent it to them. I got my reward with in minutes and it was awesome.

I didn't hold the Bitcoin for long though as I was short on cash and that was the reason behind me enrolling in that particular side hustle. The story would be different today as I'm not selling any Bitcoin that enters my account. I'll be hodling until we get to a new all time high, $100k is my spelling target for some profit.

I am glad that you are starting to profit from your investment in bitcoin. It is really hard to make money from shitcoins since they have no value at all. I would suggest that you try to reinvest your profit in bitcoin since you could earn more profit from it. Though your choice is to buy laptop accessories, it is not necessary right now. Instead, think more about how you can invest more in bitcoin so that your profit will be doubled. It is also good to buy it again now that the price is so low.

Are you asking how my first bitcoin purchase came about? At that moment, it seemed to me that I would definitely make a mistake at one of the stages and lose my money, although the amount was quite insignificant. Smiley Losing even this I would take as a disaster, but fortunately, everything went well and I received some part of btc on my wallet. The first thing I experienced was a kind of delight that everything worked out and I was able to touch this technology. By the way, this feeling lasted for several days for sure. Now everything is perceived as easy and simple, but for the first time the sensations move from distrust, fear to admiration and delight, and also, the first purchase of bitcoin seems to be something incredibly difficult.

It is better to try once than to regret a hundred times that you didn't do it because of fear. Everything will work out. There are a lot of guides on this topic on the internet.

Anyone that buys a thing of value is always filled with excitement. The lectures or talk you gave to her made her like bitcoin and she saw it as a golden opportunity to be part of this innovation. It could also be possible that she is happy because she is expecting a great return from her investment.

I got my first bitcoin this year and I felt freedom and security. My greatest attraction to Bitcoin is the opportunity that gives me to control, conceal and secure my financial transactions.

It is natural as human that when we have achieved something of great value, we become happy and feel relieved. When I bought my first btc, I was so excited that I went about telling my friends and even showing them the btc in my wallet for them to see. Though,I have known little about bitcoin then.

Three weeks later, I lost my phone in a taxi and it was like am in hell because I was scared that I will no longer have access to my investment and that whoever sees my phone might be able to have access to my wallet, I remained sober throughout that day but trying every possibility to get in touch with whoever saw my phone by calling my phone number. At night,I tried the number again and this time a lady picked the call and directed me to her location. I went to see her the next day and she gave me my phone,I was so relieved and happy,immediately I checked my wallet and saw all my btc was intact.

I didn't buy my first sats as it was given to me as my job fee. It was explained only that it was the future of money and blockchain.info wallet was used. I only want to make money at that time but was given me more than enough.

Somehow I also told my sister that BTC is the future of money. And by the time I gave her some BTC, she offer to buy more from me as if her future life depends on it. I eventually told her he can do it on exchanges herself. So far she now blames me for not reminding her to sell when BTC price was higher.

Buying btc is great and buying now that the price is so cheap is the wisest choice, it is a good thing she decided to buy btc during the bear market because most newbies who bought btc during ath are mostly the ones frecking out and panic selling during this period. I would say the best time to talk new people into buying btc is when the price is relatively down. Not everyone can handle such a huge drop in price.
OP always keep in touch with her and discuss the btc circles (bull and bear market) so she can be prepared for both period to avoid panic selling. I wish her good success.
