of course we get information about bitcoin from some friends who started the investment, then I myself tried to trace it on the internet to get detailed information about the performance of bitcoin for a relatively long period of time, so we must be very careful if we want to start a business before we are able to study it carefully, because this will have a bad impact on our investment in the future

How did you first hear about Bitcoin?
I first heard about bitcoin through the news media on the playstore, where several countries started reporting about bitcoin and there it was written that bitcoin could be used for payment media. I was curious and found out what bitcoin is and until now I use bitcoin.

 Cheesy

in my case in 2016 none of my friends and I dare say that maybe not even 1% of people in my country did not know about bitcoin, I knew bitcoin by coincidence in an ad on a PTC website, I did a lot of research and I confess that not even with the research i didn't understand anything and i made many mistakes mainly i was tricked and stolen bitcoins with scammers from this forum, i also lost btcoins with that disgusting scheme that some scammers use where the person copies an address to send bitcoin but the bitcoin is sent to another address

The first time I heard about Bitcoin was 2012, when my brother was trying gist my sister how a colleague of his made a sum of money online.

wow you are old and got to know bitcoin at a time when the price was very low

I first heard Bitcoin when it was worth $40. I didn't know what it was. I should have held on 1 Bitcoin for fun.

don't blame yourself because when i met bitcoin the price was $400  Cheesy

The first time I heard about Bitcoin was 2012, when my brother was trying gist my sister how a colleague of his made a sum of money online..trust me I didn't believe and I'm sure she didn't too. We both thought it was a scam and that it wouldn't last because it was online.
 Not until 2019 when my friends started trading and they really started talking about the whole thing. It didn't take me much proof of it's genuinity before I joined the train.

When I just heard first time form my friend about Bitcoin. I just asked him what is bitcoin he told me that it is a crypto currency, asked again I don’t know what is crypto currency he told me that crypto currency is the virtual currency conducted by internet and digital wallet. Then I just start to investigate in online what is it and how it works and what are the advantages of it. After a certain period of time deserve most of the things concerning the issue.

I first came to know of bitcoin from a friend. He is a chatterbox and wouldn't stop talking about bitcoin. I didn't fully understood what he was talking about so I made excuses not to buy. After some months I decided to give this bitcoin thing a try. I created my first bitcoin wallet and bought my very first bitcoins

When I first heard about Bitcoin, I didn't understand it, I didn't believe it could protect our privacy. I wonder why it can be anonymous, what technology it uses to protect our information, and why everyone invests in Bitcoin.
Later, after slowly learning about Bitcoin, I think Bitcoin is a fascinating currency, and that Bitcoin is really a great technology.
Now I would also like to recommend Bitcoin to my friends.

Motivating someone who is drowning in a pandemic is really needed, especially for those who have been removed from work or for entrepreneurs who have gone bankrupt due to the pandemic. giving motivation is the same as awakening the soul, so it gives hope that there is another way to get out of this situation

One day, a friend said that he was cheated by a mining team. They raised funds and said they wanted to mine Bitcoin. After the funds are in place, they said they will establish a separate mine. Unfortunately, they have never appeared since then.

At first I thought Bitcoin was a scam, but as more and more people talked about it in my life, I started to pay attention and gradually changed from the impression of a scam.

I first became aware of Bitcoin in early 2017 when a neighbor of mine invested in it and discussed with me its future prospects. Since most of the people in our country were not aware of Bitcoin at that time, I had no idea about it. On the other hand, since my neighbor is not engaged in any other profession, I am interested to know about it by looking at his way of lifestyle. Gradually through him, I started to learn and understand Bitcoin, and later on, I invested in it. This was really a  life-changing concept considering professional earning in my life.

Sometimes I wonder whether criminals have established their own specific cryptocurrencies, because even criminals need to trade favors for favours.

But then again, using bitcoin or any crypto would be pretty dumb as a criminal, since with the wrong leak could trace you to everything that you've done with time stamps and possibly even locations. And you'd never know what was a honeypot, especially because you'd be dealing with criminals (and probably dumb ones).

The openness of bitcoin may actually help lower criminality over time because of these features, and make politicians more accountable to their people in more than one way.

Will politicians be responsible for the people? Will politicians accept Bitcoin and continue to make Bitcoin more secure and free of criminal activity?

I am full of doubts. First of all, Bitcoin is decentralized. Criminal activities are not the first of Bitcoin. Criminal activities are more convenient and rampant in the world of legal currency. If politicians or even countries participate in Bitcoin governance, will Bitcoin lose its centrality? Bitcoin is Bitcoin, I hope to become more mature, and everyone should not give it too much social responsibility.

I heard about Bitcoin for the first time. My friend said that he bought a few computers to mine. I was surprised, don’t all the ore use large machinery? I gradually learned about Bitcoin. I also mentioned my understanding of Bitcoin in my first post: A ledger that can be unconditionally trusted, universally used in the world.

I know Bitcoin from a car sticker that says "I bought this car with Bitcoin", I who know little about Bitcoin because it went viral about 5 years ago trying to start understanding Bitcoin as a whole.
Yes, there are many ways to get money from Bitcoin so that someone can easily get a big profit to buy a car unit with the profit made from Bitcoin.

From there, I became more and more intense in studying Bitcoin to gain knowledge and make this an opportunity to earn money.



I first heard from my boyfriend he is talking about Bitcoin and told me that he invested in some and he gain profit also. He wanted me to take interest in Bitcoin and and also introduce Bitcoin and I was also curious that time to know more about Bitcoin. 🙂

So what have you gained from Bitcoin since getting to know Bitcoin?

I first heard about bitcoin, I didn't believe in bitcoin, I didn't think it was possible for the price of bitcoin to be this expensive but after learning I just believed that bitcoin could change the economy.
it's not just you who don't believe me, I'm sure everyone on this forum definitely doesn't believe in bitcoin, because at the beginning of the emergence of bitcoin, many people thought that bitcoin was a scam, at the beginning of the appearance of bitcoin the price of bitcoin was very low, but as time went on, more and more people held onto it. bitcoin, and invest in bitcoin, the price of bitcoin began to rise, good luck there are friends who never get tired of convincing me to enter the world of bitcoin..

I first heard of Bitcoin in 2016 as college undergraduate. Someone had been invited (not by the schools' authorities) to speak to the students about it. Then, It was never of any concern to me. I just wanted to study and make good grades. To make a long story short, I picked up interest in it 2years ago when it felt like I was missing out. So I became curious. I'd surf the internet to get information on it even though I didn't understand the technical terms. I'd listen as my friends would talk about Bitcoin. I remember I had a friend who at that point got people to invest in Bitcoin and after sometime they'll get a certain percentage (this business crashed and he was almost sent to jail).

My friend introduces this strange name bitcoin to me when we were in college too, undergraduated and at that time we started our journey in cryptocurrency as a bounty campaigners and also an active member here in forum. At first it was strange but being a member of this forum for a long time it made me realize how blessed I am that i've knew this bitcoin and cryptocurrency thing. And now all I can say is it totally change my life and it taught me how to follow the trend of investment.

Hearing and seeing my fiery friend tell me about btc got me interested and find out what btc is. The first time I found out about the crypto world I was interested in continuing to learn about it, lots of questions arose when I saw it. How the profit can be obtained, how the risk will be obtained and also how the btc will grow. All of that came to my mind and made me interested in learning more. After I learned more I felt that I was on the right track with learning the crypto world. Investing in btc is a good and profitable thing but we also have to be careful and vigilant so that we don't experience big losses.
