bitcoin is getting into me.. and i don't have a clue about how it has happened. BTC

Back in 2014, I was working in a PTC (Paid to click) site, who was pay via bitcoin, so for getting paid from that site, I had needed an wallet because the required a BTC wallet, I didn't know what is bitcoin and how to create a bitcoin wallet, I searched about bitcoin on google, and then a deep deep and big world's open in front of me.. A bitcoin world.

I was looking for a way to enable international payments an easy way for some of my online projects and PayPal, Moneybookers and such did not filled the role, too complicated, fees too high.

my story also simple,first heard about bitcoin on website post,and interesting to collect free bitcoin to make sure that bitcoin not gonna scam me,and first time i got it is from faucet,and than doing task on website,click come ads on website paided wth bitcoin.

I read an article about the block chain technology that banks will use in the future. The bitcoin is using it already.

My friend told be about it, he earns much from it.

I took the bait and here i am!

I got into Bitcoins after I saw a Show : "Inside Money" on Nat Geo where they gave a brief description about this cryptocurrency. Although it has a re-telecast but then I created my First wallet in Nov. 2015

A relative of mine introduce me to it. He invested a single coin or two and had raised it into 45 BTC through casino gambling. Wish that I am an skilled gambler as he is.

Cheers 

a year ago! my frnd told me about bitcoins... i was noob... he told me evrything now here i am in formum to earn bitcoins ty

I get into bitcoin from my new classmate. He recommend me to invest some money into it. He also tell me that bitcoin is a very good investment. So I just traded away some $400 two day ago and now I have a profit of $40. I am scared that the price will come down later. What should i do?

i have heard about bitcoin the first time from a friend of mine who was mining bitcoin at the time. but i got into bitcoin a year or so later by reading about it again in a forum post someplace else and then i found bitcointalk by searching about google and reading more about it

I got into bitcoin because I found it very interesting and thrilling. I just joined it for time pas but now I am making a solid income with it.

I saw one of my friend is using bitcoins and was trading online the same time, I reached his home so he informed me about the bitcoins world and the uses of bitcoins. I found it very interesting to earn money online and really its fascinating.

The concept was fascinating when I first heard about it, so after some research I bought into it and have played around ever since

I found out about Bitcoin on another forum. I didn't know exactly what it was at first, but I played around with it and eventually liked the uses of Bitcoin.

I get into bitcoin first time because i'm searching google how to make online money free. and from that search i know about bitcoin. and now i can earn bitcoin on this forum.

This is really terrible when I think about it, 3 years ago I made a promise to my mom I would exclude myself from The Atlantic City Casinos (where Im from) for a year, after a failed attempt to sneak into Caesars, and with pokerstars and fulltilt not taking US players, i found Bitzino.com. 


Just since Im on the topic I have to vent,  obviously I understand that I allowed a decade of gambling to ruin my life, but what bothers me is that I almost feel that the "Gaming Industry" is looked upon in a positive fashion.  And I think the state government is as addicted to it as I am.  In New Jersey, there is a state wide law, that no one is allowed to smoke cigarettes within 25 feet of any public door, BUT theres one place that just said "No We will allow people to smoke in our facilities"  Atlantic City!!  Why is that OK?

At 25 years old I was taking out $5,000 markers (Loans) at 0% interest with a credit score of about 610.  Drugs and alcohol=Bad    Gambling and Casinos= Fun, Friday night party!!

Thats the impression I get when I accidently go to a casino on a Friday or Saturday night. 


I'm sorry to anyone who had to just read my sob story, Im usually not that whiny but I am just looking for someone to blame other than myself for the problems I've gotten myself into.

I've always been a bit of a 'techie' and I had heard about Bitcoin, but decided to take the plunge in Jan 2014, after reaching ATH.

My friend introduced me to bitcoins and said that you can make a descent amount with it on weekly basis by working on signature campaigns and I started to work on it.

Well I started bitcoin because of deepweb and notice the currency used there and I started searching for it and earning those...
