Haha OP, if had, known that you going to start a topic then maybe maybe i would be able to create this one before you (joke).

Well OP forgets about what if, If this, and if that all this is just shit quotes and life never stops for someone. So keep moving forget what you missed buy what you can in the present.
You can't make your future bright if you don't focus on your Present. Also, you can't focus on your Present if you stay in your past mistakes.

I was introduced to Bitcoin talk org six years ago but I never took it serious because I feel digital money is not real. My non willingness to learn, has cost me a life changing opportunity but now, I know better😀.
I really don't get to think much on lost chances nor do I blame people about it. Even if the time were to be reversed, the chances are that you might have made the same exact choice as, you still won't have known better and the elements to thwart your decisions would still be there and very much active too.

When it comes to bitcoin or cryptocurrencies in general, some of the questions has been to how real it is and it is sad really. That people seem to center their believes or ideas of what is real with something tangible. You know  forgetting that there are context to things and on the part of digitalised nature of things, bitcoin or cryptocurrencies is as real as it gets.

Ideas have been a distinctive factor between investors and the many struggling today. Of course finance can play a role but mainly, your ideas and that could be more of the reason why you @OP didn't take the leap. The goodnews is, its not late now.

I wonder how the the hacks and prising does happen then.
Of course if your careless with your security or chose to save your coin on centralised exchanges in contrats to non custodial wallets, you might have some dark clouds gathering right above you, waiting to rain heavy.

 Bitcoin is real money and is used around the world.

No one can censor bitcoin transactions because it is using computational algorithm called proof of work.

It is very accessible, fast and easy to use.

Well, you can only blame yourself for your stuborness in not seeing the obvious. This is pretty much what my friends are now telling me... If only they have listened, they would not be sorry nowadays. Your worst attitude was to noy even give a chance to Bitcoin. You simply took it as digital money which you did not believe, but bitcoin is so much more than that. Next time u better do your homework

Most of us thought Bitcoin wasn't real money at first. But we gradually learned what Bitcoin is all about. I believe that 6 years is an excessive amount of time to learn and reach a conclusion. You missed a lot of things here, and you were probably too lazy to research. However, thank God you now understand what Bitcoin is. You still have a lot of things to learn. Spend more time on the forum reading than writing. You aren't yet mature for cryptocurrency.

1- Bitcoin is real money and is used around the world.
2- No one can steal your bitcoin.

1- Bitcoin is a virtual or digital currency, and it is real money from a technical point of view and is intangible by hand, just like a version of cash on the Internet, so you can send bitcoins to anyone around the world only this person to whom you want to transfer bitcoins must have a bitcoin wallet, and the transaction takes place without the intervention of a third party or Central bank control.

2- This is wrong, stealing your bitcoins depends on how you protect your wallet and the security of your device and phone, so anyone can steal your bitcoins if he accesses your private key or recovery phrases, or if your computer or phone is under his control after it has been hacked, so I advise you to use a cold wallet, it is safer because it is not connected to the Internet, and everything will be fine.

It's a good lesson. About the part where you didn't try to jump in when it was introduced to you. Remember if it will not hurt you emotionally or financially then do check it first. It's just a simple data consumption in your monthly internet when you google it. Is that much to lose?
But I don't blame you, that had been the case on that era where scams are all over the internet. Bitcoin was a victim of those accusation even though it's just a currency. It doesn't even decide on itself, it's not human. Scammers are human beings and not discoveries.

It's never late, there's no late in Bitcoin. There's still the possibility it's value will go up. Honestly, I extremely believe that it will happen. Time will tell.

It's never too late for anyone to join bitcointalk, you, me and all of us who are here both new and old members are of course still in a learning capacity so that they can further increase our knowledge about the world of blockchain, cryptocurrency or bitcoin, in my personal opinion we all just being able to use bitcoin as an investment asset, while for use as real money, of course, it has not been fully realized because there are indeed many countries that still refuse to use bitcoin as a means of transaction even though so far bitcoin has speed and convenience in transactions, when it comes to security, maybe I don't agree with you saying bitcoin can't be stolen, because in fact we have found many cases of bitcoin exchangers or someone personal wallet losing due to being hacked by hackers.

Bitcoin is an investment tool, many people can change their lives thanks to it, but there are also many people who lose money due to investing in the wrong way with it.

You are not alone in this forum because I bet there's somebody out there too who wasted some of their precious time neglecting bitcoin despite the fact that it was already introduced to them few years ago. Even me, I only started working and knowing more about this crypto stuff more than 3 years after it was introduced to me and believe me, I understand the feeling.

Although, the last line is a bust because believing that no one can steal your bitcoin is totally false and actually, you could lose it all in just a blink of an eye if you're not that careful. I guess OP should know more about the security stuff and how to make your coins much safer.

Have you learned about security because from your post you said non can stole your bitcoin. I must say without appropriate security measures your bitcoin could get likely taken away from you. I believe there are lots of things you really needs to learn just that you are claiming to know it all. Well the best is, just humble yourself and read lot of post to study and know more history about bitcoin.
Security is very important key aspect of bitcoin.

Bitcoin is a life changer.
Not really...
Why not? Whether it's going to succeed or not, bitcoin already changed the life of a lot of people, just think about the early adopters, many of them were just kids when bitcoin came out, those who had the ability to understand it and some bravery to actually buy it (even if it was worth a few dollars) now probably are in a way better situation than the 99.9% of their friends and family. Is it a life changer for everyone? Of course not, is it for some? Yes!

I'm afraid there's a lot of things you still don't know about Bitcoin. But you'll learn on the way, so don't stop on studying and earning Bitcoin. Though, you could have earned a lot already in those years if you didn't doubt Bitcoin in the first place, especially there's no risk at all in engaging this forum. I've learned a lot already since I started here, but I still have a long way to go.

I'm proud to say that Bitcoin helps me to change my life up 'till now and in the future. It's better than fiat, that's for sure.
Aren't we all? I mean, from being here for years already, I am aware that there's lot more to learn in this technology. Also even if Bitcoin has advantages over fiat, the other way around still is there; widely accepted and has a more stable value which makes it more convenient to use on a daily basis, without regrets or worrying from doing such thing. Pitential of this technology is well known but but why is it that this blockchain is not being used on a regular basis for daily purchases? 'coz people who owns an amount are more expecting profit from it than as a usual digital currency. And for now, that is simply how this technology would work. But progressive development continues so maybe in the future issues would be aided.

Looks like your knowledge of bitcoin is pretty good,
but I don't understand when you say that bitcoin cannot be stolen, what is your reason, I want to hear it, I hope it is useful for me,,
that's why bitcoins can't be stolen? Surely you wouldn't say that if you didn't know why?
Maybe what the OP meant was what was explained on this site zipmex.com. Because on the site it is explained that what has been hacked is a wallet containing Bitcoin and on average these wallets are software wallets so the OP assumes that Bitcoin itself has never been hacked before as long as it is stored in a wallet that is completely safe and maybe an explanation in the article it can enlighten you a little about what the OP wrote.

It is still not late to hop in Bitcoin bandwagon.  Bitcoin is still on its baby step so there are still lots of opportunities and profits to make.  There are still life changer opportunities offered by industry, you just need to find them.  Regardless, I am glad you are able to come into conclusion and despite of the regrets you face Bitcoin with an enthusiastic character.  This is a good character to start your venture into Bitcoin ecosystem.  I hope you are able to maximize the benefits in engaging in Bitcoin industry.  Don't make haste and make sure you have all the knowledge needed in making your Bitcoin venture a success.

Amen.

OP you need to understand that time doesn't make any difference for a determined person. A lot of people in the market are losing their bitcoin on daily basis because they're not determined to hodl their coins. I'd say that your stay here in few months would erased all the blames you have on yourself. The forum will level up your thoughts, through the numerous information provided here, to purchase more bitcoin even while thinking you're late. Everyone who didn't get bitcoin for free 13 years ago can consider themselves late comers, but that doesn't mean that people who joined last year haven't made more profits too. Imaging a person who bought 2 bitcoin at 16k each has made over 10k profits within a small period. Like everyone has said, no such thing as "had I known" in the community or market. Ok, now you've known start doing something from there.

Do you mean to imply that your failure to join bitcointalk.org six years ago reduced your chances of learning more about bitcoin? It may be true that it cost you a chance to change your life, but there are no guarantees. I used to know a lot of people who were also amazed by bitcoin, especially by its lack of censorship. But during the big pump in 2017, the majority of them sold their bitcoins. They made a lot of money, but the point is that most people cannot hold on for long and will be tempted if the price suddenly goes up.

To be clear, Bitcointalk is our forum while Bitcoin is the cryptocurrency that you are talking about. You can still change your life without knowing the forum but you knew to invest in Bitcoin because I'm a Bitcoin investor already before I join the forum. Actually, I joined the forum because I want to discuss and learn more about my investment. There's no such thing as late on Bitcoin investment because any price is the perfect opportunity to join this legendary community that will change the future of the financial world.

You should study more instead on giving your own opinion since you have a lot to learn here.

No one can steal your bitcoin.




Anyone can steal your bitcoins if you don't know how to keep them safe. Bitcoin is safe because when you own bitcoin, you are your bank, your assets are not controlled by 3rd parties. But it's also extremely risky if you don't know how to store them safely. What you describe about bitcoin shows that you need to have more knowledge about it before thinking of further investment in bitcoin.

If you had evaluated this bitcoin 6 years ago you would probably have a better position on this forum today. And it's because of that underestimation that you realize how much you've lost. So I would say nothing should be underestimated in life.

Bitcoin is a life changer.

No one can steal your bitcoin.
Of course Bitcoin can change people's lives a lot. Many people have earned billions by working on this bitcoin forum. Again many people are managing their lives beautifully by working on this bitcoin forum. And many unemployed young men and women are changing lives by working on bitcoin forums.

Keeping Bitcoins in hardware wallet is unlikely to get stolen. However, there is a possibility of theft if Bitcoin is kept in a software wallet. Bitcoins can be stolen especially due to customer carelessness.

You walk by life changing opportunities every day without knowing. Even if you simply play the lottery you have every day the chance to change your life, but it is still unlikely.
If I was you I would not feels regret about it, because it take more than to know about bitcoin to get rich from it.

Many people have missed opportunities in the past, like OP, and I believe that if you or any of us knew about bitcoin at the time, we would also choose to ignore it. OP feels regret because he has now seen its success, not because he didn't learn about it, it was just an argument to deny his mistake. I missed the opportunity by not investing in bitcoin in 2014, it was because I didn't trust bitcoin enough. But I have never regretted that no one knows the future.

The fact is that currently many people have lost their bitcoins due to hacking cases, but I am not saying that this loss is caused by the security flaws offered by bitcoin but by individual negligence when holding bitcoins, to avoid this it is highly recommended that we always store bitcoins in a cold wallet because With this wallet, we don't need to always be connected to the internet, so that makes the security higher than the security of hot wallets, which are vulnerable to being hacked.

If you had said "decentralized" money is not real money, that would have made some sense but digital money is what we all use a lot in our daily lives. Fiat currencies that we use changed form to digital a long time ago, unless you are a rare case who has always used hard cash which is unlikely!

No one can steal your bitcoin.
Anyone that sees and knows your seed phrase or private key can steal your coins. Anyone that is able to compromise your device and transfer your coins successfully just stole it too, be careful of both online and offline attacks. Be careful of malware.

I don't know, but your topic contains a lot of errors and lacks accuracy, and it also misses many important features of Bitcoin.

First, Bitcoin can be stolen in many ways if you do not have sufficient knowledge to secure Bitcoin by keeping it in a secure wallet and not storing it in central platforms, also choosing the type of wallet and the method of preserving private keys, there are many important things that must be taken into account, otherwise you will lose your Bitcoin.

Also, you did not mention the most important things about Bitcoin, such as decentralization, maintaining privacy, and not needing third party services because it is a peer-to-peer payment method, also that it is out of control and many other important features.

I am confused with your point but i think that if you found Bitcointalk.org earlier meaning you invest earlier in bitcoin it is lot changing. This was very famous on those person whos supposed to be know bitcoin but again people dont invest on it as they dont trust it but again there is no late meaning you can still buy bitcoin and gain profit. I know your regrets but again dont do again your mistake, invest now and earn profit

Good for you! Unfortunatelly there are still many people who think digital money isn't real and that Bitcoin is a big ponzi scheme, without any intrinsic value, so they insist in wasting time and also money, because they prefer to let it in fiat stored in saving accounts which generate interest below the inflation. You took 6 years to wake up, while others are still sleeping after 14 years and wishing Bitcoin dies, so they can finally say: "I knew it! I told you all the time!". Now make sure you don't waste any more time, invest in BTC while it's not too expensive. We never know when the next bull run is going to start.

We should thank those who have resisted and distrusted bitcoin for the past 14 years instead of blaming them. In a sense, it is as if success or wealth are not for the masses. Let's try to accumulate as much bitcoin as possible when many people still do not believe in it, its price is still very low, they are giving us a chance, and we should thank them. When they started believing in bitcoin, we were on a new level, successful people always have their way, and that's why I always ignore the Fuds around.

Digital money is not physical, so it's very hard to understand. After all, Bitcoin is based on code and is only existing in the digital world.
Bitcoin is also based on trust and when Satoshi started it, he wasn't sure if it was going to be successful. He said something like that: "In a few years we'll see either no transactions at all or a lot of transactions". What implied, that Bitcoin needed to be supported by enough people.
And Bitcoin had / has enough support to survive that critical early phase.

A much bigger step than simply surviving from a technological perspective will be acceptance:
After all, money is what people are willing to accept. And if Bitcoin, a digital good / asset (we could argue here about a better description), is accepted by many people it can become some sort of money as well.

A couple of notes, though.

1. Bitcoin is indeed censorship-resistant. There's no authority that can ban, restrict, or censor an address or a transaction in the network. So whether you're a communist, a terrorist, a criminal, a weirdo, an anarchist, or whatever, you're allowed to make Bitcoin transactions. However, this is all betrayed by centralized exchanges and other centralized platforms. These platforms blacklist, restrict, and censor addresses and people because they have tainted Bitcoin, used gambling sites, a resident of Russia, and so on.

2. Indeed, no one can steal your Bitcoin. But only if you keep it safe. By keeping it safe, I mean you store it offline where you alone have the control and possession of your private keys. Keeping the private keys is another thing. You cannot keep them online or in whatever device that you connect online. And, again, your Bitcoin could be stolen once you keep it in centralized exchanges. Not only could your coins be stolen, they could also be frozen for whatever reason.

At least you know about it now and as long as you learn from your mistake, everything is good. It's never too late. If you have some money lying around, invest in bitcoin and keep holding. If you don't, six years later, when you look at the price, you are going to make the same post and start regretting once again. Not a financial advice though. Do your own research. After six years, the price might skyrocket, might be the same or might go down much more than it is now.

Bitcoin is a virtual currency, not physically real but provides real benefits. For now, it's more widely used as a speculative asset around the world if you look at global regulations.

That varies from person to person, so I'm not sure. Device, infrastructure, and environment dependent.

I still feel like you're missing a lot of the features of Bitcoin which gives it a lot of promise. For example, removing the need for third parties, such as banks. That should probably be one of the major factors for everyone, and I believe was the main motivation for creating Bitcoin. The other one being; counterfeiting, i.e Bitcoin can't be faked, and every transaction is verified. As well as transactions can't be faked if they've been confirmed.

It's nice to see someone who's relatively new not focus on the price aspect, and how it swings from there to here. You're at least focusing on the more important aspects which drive those swings.

I was introduced to Bitcoin talk org six years ago but I never took it serious because I feel digital money is not real. My non willingness to learn, has cost me a life changing opportunity but now, I know better😀.

In case you are just like me, let me give  you a brief run down of what i have learnt so far about bitcoin and its benefits

 Bitcoin is real money and is used around the world.

No one can censor bitcoin transactions because it is using computational algorithm called proof of work.

It is very accessible, fast and easy to use.

Bitcoin is a life changer.
It is true that it's a life changer. Many of us here have a life changing opportunity because of bitcoin and not just that, it has taught a lot of things not just about itself but also about the markets and economics that you'll get to learn when you're too curious about it.

And these days, it's normal to see someone regrets that he should have listened to his friends or relatives when they've been shared and introduced to bitcoin because look at how far it has went. It's not just only about the price that it has got during 2021's bull run but the technology and acknowledgement that it's getting these days. Not just from the people but also from big financial institutions and the governments.

No one can steal your bitcoin.
Only if you know how to keep your bitcoins safe but if you can't, you might fall for phishing/malware tactics.

It is still not late to hop in Bitcoin bandwagon.  Bitcoin is still on its baby step so there are still lots of opportunities and profits to make.  There are still life changer opportunities offered by industry, you just need to find them.  Regardless, I am glad you are able to come into conclusion and despite of the regrets you face Bitcoin with an enthusiastic character.  This is a good character to start your venture into Bitcoin ecosystem.  I hope you are able to maximize the benefits in engaging in Bitcoin industry.  Don't make haste and make sure you have all the knowledge needed in making your Bitcoin venture a success.

Bitcoin assets will not be safe if you don't neatly store the secret keys you have, show your assets to other people and where you keep them, don't easily trust people around you even if they are your relatives because with little chance a crime will occur
so what you say bitcoin assets will not be stolen by other people is nonsense

It's good you now know better. I can see your account just got registered today, so I welcome you to the forum. Often visit Beginners and help to learn more guids. Visit the meta board were discussion about the forum is done. I believe you have read the rules on the link provided in your second thread; if you have not, try and do so. 

Don't be so confident and comfortable that no one can steal your bitcoin because it is very possible that you can lose your bitcoin to theft. Take preventive measures to avoid losing your asset if you have already invested in Bitcoin or are planning to do so.

In the crypto space, protecting your assets should be your priority. There are a lot of scammers, like you mentioned in your second thread, so if you don't keep your private keys safe, you can lose everything. not your key, not your coin.

it's never too late in bitcoin, as long as you want to continue to know what bitcoin is and invest in it, because bitcoin changes that can't be fixed, always changes, so don't blame yourself in this




No one can steal your bitcoin.


who said you can't lose?
there are many people who have lost crypto assets intentionally or unintentionally
the crypto world has too many fraudsters and hackers, sometimes those of us who are careful can still lose what else is too much trust in other people

You don't have to blame yourself too much, six years ago is quite a long time, but then, you are better late than never , I won't talk about all that you said you've learned about bitcoin because some of the things you said are actually false, but I hope that now that you've realized your mistakes in not embracing bitcoin, as well as bitcointalk six years ago, you will settle down here and learn all that you have to learn about bitcoin.
Come to think that most of us does have that missed the train kind of story that we shouldnt have sold like this and like that or simply had those words that we should have accumulating when it is still cheap.
It cant really be avoided on having this kind of words but its true that we should really move on because if you wont really be doing so then you would just keep on coming back on thinking on this
ways which would really be resulting into that frustration and stress.Its true  that now that we are fully aware about its potential then its never too late for us to get in
considering that the market is  still existing even up to this moment and into more future years to come.

This is true for 99% of people. But... you're still early. Bitcoin is quite cheap right now, so I have to say you've seen the light at a very appropriate time. Buy now with all you have, go all in and you won't regret it.  Cool

Just to remind you, 6 years ago, in 2017 Bitcoin was $19k, currently it's $21k. So I haven't earned much with my stash for the last 6 years.

No one can steal your bitcoin.

Who told you no one can steal your bitcoin? I don't know if this is a grammatic error but what you just wrote above is not true. Guard your bitcoin as if you're gaurding your life or a king. Write your seed phrase or private pin on a piece of paper and keep it safe and never store it electronically.
Bitcoin is easy to be stolen through a number of ways but popular among them is hack, we have hard of exchanges and other platform or wallets holding large amount of bitcoin being hacked and coins stolen from them.
And secondly you an lose your coins if you are careless enough to expose your security keys and passwords to scammers who will at the end gain access to your wallet and make away with coins from them, so in conclusion,  bitcoin is consensus between users and the computing transaction bass on cryptography.

It's obvious you haven't learned anything yet, all of the above is not necessarily true, people can actually steal your coins if you are not careful enough to secure your funds, I will not discuss politics about how they can or can't refuse providing service to certain users.
Also it's not easy to use at all, 99% of people don't know how to use bitcoin.
