Then it creeped back up to almost what I paid for it...

Ay yi yi.  I am beginning to think this is all just a grand conspiracy to screw with me.


You bought an asset/currency/instrument that has a very clear history of such volatility.  Why are you so surprised and taking it personally?   This is what you signed up for.

The fact that it recovered to almost $1000 WITHOUT the massive chinese support in about a month should really say something about bitcoin's growth and stability though.  China made up a huge portion of the bitcoin population/ecosystem and was largely responsible for bitcoin's explosive growth in November, but now we see that the void is getting filled up at a good pace and will continue to expand worldwide.

In late 2011 I was down over 90% on the first bitcoins I bought. You can guess my ROI now.

If you haven't been down >75% for some period in your bitcoin holding, consider yourself lucky.

You failed by not buying more at a low an thus averaging your holding entry point. You could be sitting in profit right now if you had doubled your fit investment whilst at the bottom.

$2000 = 2btc @ $1000/btc
$2000 = 4BTC @ $500/btc

total = near $6000 right now with a cost of $4000

We all say that at the price point we bought in at. It takes a full year or more to get a great ROI if you bought at a peak. While it's lower is a good time to buy a little more to hedge. Usually it's best to buy with cost averaging.

Don't worry about it.

I know that doesn't help, but it is surprisingly sound advice.
