How, and how much did you manage to lose?

first time i lost my wallet's id and recovery codes and i had around 0,03 bitcoin there so i was pretty sad even if it's price was low then, maybe around 7$ only but i was still sad

and other time i lost more bitcoins, 0,12 i think when i wanted to send them to my friend but i did 2 letters mistake when i typed address and turns out that it was real address so i lost money

A small amount so far .045 BTC with Cryptsy, unfortunately Sad

. I wonder if it will ever be recoverable, not that it's much.

I have made bad alt investments and lost BTC. I have also stupidly not backed up my wallet.dat in the early days and had a stolen laptop, great feeling knowing the earner the buyer of the laptop got if he understood BTC, it was 3.5btc. I guess there are many who have lost much more so I feel for them.

in fact I never lost bitcoin because I have not a single one. then how can I. but to me I lost a lot of bitcoin perhaps I join the bitcoin in 2005 or 2006 now I will have thousands of bitcoin but I missed. that is what I lost in last few years.

Joining Bitcoin in 2005 seems a bit difficult to me..

Considering it hadn't even started it's life me too Roll Eyes

While exchanging or trading, there are several users who keep losing their bitcoins as they get scammed. I myself lost 0.15 BTC due to a fraudster and 0.03 BTC for a task that I completed in December. I fortunately never invested in ay project/hyip/gambling website to lose more coins.

It's been exciting & sad to read some of the stories here. I expect people to have lost some minimal bitcoins, but some of the values I'm seeing here is just unbelievable!

Hopefully everyone that did lose coins, managed to recover from it.

I never heard about case when someone lost bitcoin (for example by sending it to the wrong address) and then managed to receive it back.
Cases like these simply aren't happening. If you mean someone - managed to recover bitcoin - there is only one solution - he earned bitcoin again - no received it back.

Yes one day I lost some amount of bitcoin while dealing with a person, he scammed me but after that I found his other accounts also and I sent the list of his account to him and he immediately gave me my dues.

most of the bitcoin users have already lost at least some amount of bitcoin to gambling since it is a big service and it is getting more and more popular. and i am no different because i have lost bitcoin to gambling. but at least i am glad that i have not yet lost anything to scams.

Irrational questions, many people have a various reason to lose their bitcoin. I'm certain; Many people are all ready to manage their Bitcoin as good as possible. Not want to lose it. it was just an accident or not their luck.

I was traded bitcoin to skrill USD on this forum and i sent 1.19 BTC for first, he did'nt sent his skrill until now. But i never give up. I am still learning about bitcoin on this forum.

That's pretty shitty man, I hope you reported that guy so he cannot scam more people on here. Also you should always look for reputable members with impeccable feedback scores when trading big amounts. If there is no one around just head over to LocalBitcoins, there are plenty of 1000+ traders (even a few 10,000+) who offer Skrill.

I've lost a ton of bitcoins on gambling, around 3 BTC in total. But now I don't gamble anymore. I only go for the promotions that sites give out which are pretty much guarantee wins.

I've also lost a private key that contained around 0.05 BTC in it... It was a paper wallet, probably threw it out as trash some day, lol.

It depends on what you mean by lost. I've never been hacked and I've never lost Bitcoins by forgetting the passwords to my accounts/wallets. But I've lost a good amount by investing in altcoins and projects that turned out to be scams. That was a couple of years ago though, I not losing Bitcoins these days, lesson learned
