Topic: How did you know about Crypto? - page 2. (Read 405 times)
i learned cryptocurrency way back 2015. A friend of mine introduced bitcoin to me and how can i earn big money out of it. The value of bitcoinwas too low but we just spent it in games and gambling. how i wish i could turn back time and waited till 2017 where the value reached a million dollar!
I got to know about Bitcoin a couple of years back after malware attack in one of the MNCs when it was demanding for Bitcoins to clean the systems. 
I have known about Crypto from my colleaugue. And you, bros?
I, like many others, laughed at first when I was offered to invest in bitcoin. We are children of 90th especially in Ukraine, we perceive this as another MMM. For the first time I heard about bitcoin in March 2017 and only after half a year began to delve into.
I heard about bitcoin first in 2013 from a friends friend who had a few bitcoins. he told that somebody send it to him in 2011 or 2012? for free because he wants to try this thing out. he got it from a forum maybe from a member bitkointalk. At this time I don't really understand what he was talking about. And I thought Internetmoney it couldn't work because you can copy everything an a computer so also Bitcoins. I wish I had an interest at that time to understand Blockchain.
The second time I heard from it was mid 2017 from other friends who have already been invested in it.

I saw a friend who often open this web forum, then I was curious and asked, my friend immediately explained in a real way. And I am interested and feel that I also have enough criteria to join this forum. So I studied more crypto in the forum
I first learnt about Bitcoin after a friend told me it existed and I even read a book about how it worked. I wish I had put more energy into it at the moment I would be rich now 
Then some time ago another friend of mine got into cryptos and almost forced me to join

I heard about btc on news last summer and when i checked the price i was shocked. Because in 2012 i have heard about it and though it was not worth to waste my time
I guess that was one of the your biggest regrets, ignoring bitcoin but I just like what you have said, If I were that same situation like you I will ignored it also without even realizing that bitcoin will be valuable just like today. One of my friends just tell me about bitcoin, and then I started with my own research about it.
I know and know the encrypted currency through my friends. Now I'm glad I got to know it. I fell in love with it. Because it can bring me extra wealth. At the same time, I also help more people to know the encryptioncurrency, because it also makes me happy.There is also a sense of achievement.

From friends first and inevitably through all the news on crypto we are seeing these days
My first introduction with cryptocurrency is actually a bad story to tell as a "Newbie" on this forum. In my defense, it was a long time ago and i was still irresponsible! 
So i wanted to buy some drugs from the internet (yeap here we go). Buying on this specific website was only possible trough Bitcoin (like the well known SilkRoad). So i learned how to buy Bitcoins and spend them, using Blockchain wallet. After a very long time i logged into Blockchain again for some reason and when looking at my transaction history i could see the value of the Bitcoins then and now. Seeing this massive increase caught my attention and from that point i started reading about bitcoin, learning about hardforks that were going on at that moment, understanding altcoins and ICO's.
And now i am here, hooked to my computer, crypto everywhere
And by the way, not buying drugs with my coins!! I SWEAR!!

Oh wow that is way too cool .
well my churchmates introduce Bitcoin with me, they were talking and I feel Isolated thats hy I ask them about it and know this is our mostly topic when we gather around.
I found out kinda late... Stumbled upon Cointelegraph youtube channel, watched videos, it was really funny but I didn't really understand what exactly they were talking about lol so it motivated me to research more
From work. Our lead developer was and is a nut about it. Actually a lot of the other IT guys teased him about it then one day we all started jumping in on the band wagon. Thankfully he shares his knowledge with us.
I've actually known crypto from my co-worker, he invites me to register in bitcoin and I have also read it online.
from my brother, who knew from his friend))
I've seen a lot of articles online, and then my friend convinced me to try it.
friend guide me step by step to bitcoin years ago then i started to learn by using bitcointalk . org .reading is important to update gained knowledge .
I know about crypto to my friends. Then i see some youtube video, read some blog and news.
I saw my friends earning some good bucks thru this cypto or virtual moneys and so i ask them but its sad to say that you could really see in there eyes and notice from what they're talking that they dont wanna share how they earn it so i tried to do some research about it and ended up being here. Oh btw! I just figured out that they're doing a signature campaign
I heard about bitcoin a long time ago because one of my classmate is using this but I didn't bother. I didn't know it will be a big deal like now.
