It was a fair day late november 2014.

Actually, for the last 3 years, i've surfed on most/lot of PTC websites and didn't even earned $1 Sad . One day i saw "bitcoins accepted" <- this on a PTC websites, it was quite new payment method i saw that time. So i started googl about bitcoin, then joined coinbase, then earned some dusts from faucets, then free LTC every hour from yobit.net (they stopped paying free LTC every hour). At last i came to know about bitcointalk.org and joined here. Then what? You know what will be happend Grin Grin

I heard about it in a newspaper article stating a guy by spending just $15 became a millionaire.
I was fascinated by reading the article and thought of using Bitcoin.

I'm not sure but some of my friends send me links about "earn free bitcoins by just registering" or something else.
It was coinpro or something like that I'm not sure.

Even my friend sent me the link to earn bitcoins for free by registering..at that stage I thought what the hell is this?? And he also asked me to watch a video on youtube called the rise and rise of a bitcoin before registering..I just ignored on that day..but one day when I was sitting idle I thought to watch that video, and it completely changed my perception towards bitcoins.

Are you a bitcoin fan?
Do you spend a lot of time on bitcoin? Reading news, trading, or even writing your own analysis.
But how did you first hear about bitcoin?
Is it some articles you read about? Or just from a friend who has traded bitcoin for a long time?

Share your experience with us. Grin
i found it by google results. Tongue i was searched about online payments. And surfed a lot pages and websites. Then i found this words "bitcoins accepted". So i just tried to google 'bitcoin' and then i'm in Wink

When it went over 1K dollars and surpassed gold for a while I think I saw it on some mainstream news like Fox news or something along the lines. A lot has changed since them. Back then I was desperate to own at least 1, now I got a couple. Yes im still poor, but I think im on the right track. Im wiser and im owning some.

a relative mentioned it to me, but explained it very poorly.  he told me that you could "mine" them using a computer, but made it sound like they were hidden around the internet for people to discover.  He also told me they could be used to buy "pizza & drugs".  I ignored him until I saw a "seeking alpha" article about them 6 months later.  THEN I took notice.

I first heard about bitcoin from a very wealthy client at work who kept advising me to invest for the future. In the after much deliberation I gave in & took his advice.

I invested & kept investing, I still am now Grin

I am under no illusion that we are in a long waiting game now until our investment (those of us who aren't uber early adopters) pays off big time. I predict about 10 years from now 1 bitcoin will be worth 10 times more than it is today, hopefully even more.

As far as my involvement in bitcoin goes I am a HODLER not a spender though I gamble with small amounts for fun. Mainly though I'm a long term HODLER.

A Friend asked me what's the bitcoin? And I didn't know what it was back then.
Then I look it up and learned what it is since I knew it, I'm using it.
