One day, Ive sent all of my bitcoin in a wrong address.Im trying to find a way to recover my bitcoins but it simply cant. That is why i almost quit using bitcoin. Now im recovering my lost bitcoins. I didnt blame anyone because its my own fault . And I dont expect that i can recover my bitcoins cause it is a human error

Its hard to recover your coins now, but if you can find that person whom you have sent and request him to return you back then you can expect to recover your coins, but the chances are almost zero.

Only small amounts, and on rare occasions larger amounts. But if you have proper care, and follow the safety recommendations to prevent such things from happening, probably you will not have major problems with it.

The most important recommendation is to use a safe wallet and keep private key safe and hidden.
and one more thing is do not invest your bitcoins anywhere you see lots of profit. some time you see something but reality is actually different.
so never fall on these ponzi offers and you'll be safe.

Yeah if any sites is offering you unreal profits then you should be aware that something is wrong and it will be surely a ponzi scheme which will run away with your investments in future.

Bravity is beautiful.

Yes I lost bitcoin because I have been scammed before which is not a nice experience but it happened cause i was dumb.
It was an investment into something which basicly just ran away with the money afterwards and Ive never heard from it again.

Have you ever lost Bitcoin?

If that happened, why? Was it your own fault, or were you scammed?

Yeah I have lost Bitcoin in the past with gambling and just spending them in real life but I was never scammend or hacked.
I am sure that it can happen with Bitcoin but it did not happen to me.

Yes and if you are into gambling then loosing there is a common thing, as you cannot expect to win every time but I still feel that loosing in gambling is good instead of getting scammed.

"Your own fault" or "were yo scammed" are the same thing if you ask me , because if you get scammed then it was your fault for not using escrow in your transaction or trusting people just like that or simply using reversible payment methods . and no , I never lost any bitcoins and I'm not planning to start now . Grin

Using trusted escrows has been proven to not be always a guarantee for safety. In that case it is very difficult to avoid being scammed here on this forum, even while using trusted forum escrows. Regarding OP; I am happy to say that I have not lost any coins.

Just because Master-P scammed people doesn't mean all escrows are bad , but yes you got a point . Still , 99% of scam accusations on Bitcointalk are totally the fault of people who gets scammed .

I dont think there are allot of peopel lost their bitcoins and if they have lost their bitcoins i know for sure that there are many peopel who got rid of their coins not just loss they are stolen from them for sure!

I lost because of my own mistake bitcoin. I often lose bitcoin in gambling but it used to be when I do not have self-control. I also lost my first bitcoin on the use of trade and I think it's still reasonable.

I haven't lost coins from sending it to a wrong person, but yes I've lost some coins into scams. No problem, because I have learning from it. The last year, I haven't lost coins to scam websites and ponzi schemes.

If you will loose once you will not dare to repeat the same mistake again and that is the best way to move on, learn from mistakes but make sure that you don't repeat it again.

answer from me is, often. yes, I often lose bitcoin. I've lost bitcoin being fooled, my carelessness, and also lost a bitcoin for gambling

Everyone have lost their coins in the past and people who are active in gambling would be loosing on continuous basis, but now we need to make sure that we will avoid gambling to avoid loss.

When I am starting to earn bitcoin I dont know about being scam I only start earning bitcoin in faucet site and invest it so that my money grow not knowing that it is high risk or high to chance to be scam. Experience is your best teacher thats why from that mistake I learn from my mistake. And now totally improving in earning bitcoin. He he.

Have you ever lost Bitcoin?
my answer :
Yes, but my own fault
Yes, but I was scammed

maybe total of my lost arround 10btc

Lol I think most people lose money or bitcoin them because they make their own mistakes such as gambling or deliberately invest into Ponzi site and when the site was a scam they get losses can be significant amount. be careful with something risky

Unfortunately, Every newbie is susceptible to some scam

Correct, and I also assume that mostly of us do experience scam when we are still a newbie because of lack of knowledge int things especially to hyips and ponzi sites. Even some veterans do also be a victim but in rare cases only. As we learned from our experience we would not able to commit the same mistake again.

I think everybody has lost bitcoin at sometime in their bitcoin life. Cry

Even if they say they didn't they actually have and just don't want to admit it.
It is just a fact of life. Some of the good comes with some of the bad. Sad

Totally agree with you. Losing some satoshis is part of learning
