Topic: In 2010/2011 Bitcoin was really exciting! (Read 2034 times)
I have to admit that i am excited just like the people from the 2010/11 . I mean its amazing to think that such a coin exists! making our life way more easier (in my opinion of course).My friends look at me with a weird look whenever i try to talk to them about it!Everything is fine tho until they hear all those "complicated" things. Indeed it is in the beginning but when you get used to it everything is easy.
It was really exciting right before and after the rise to $1000/BTC, totally different 'vibe' in the community, but that might just be me who thinks that 
I have the feeling that it's going to gain momentum again, especially if the price keeps rising like it does now.
We could see more of these cycles around each reward halving.

yes of course it was but at that time we were not aware of it. i think in 2020 people will say that in 2016 bitcoin was really exciting. so i suggest that we should get binifit from the present condition.
People used to talk about "losing sleep thinking about BTC all the time", and it wasn't just about money.

If people were exited in 2010, then they have even more reason to be exited in 2016
6 whole years have passed and Bitcoin is still dominating conversation when it comes to the disruption of this archaic financial system that has literally turned "money" into debt.
6 years ago, if you were to mention anything Bitcoin related to anyone in the financial sector, you would have been ostracized and made the butt of everyone else's jokes. 6 years later Bitcoin is finally being taken seriously. Bank, after Bank has publicly expressed their concern that bitcoin may one day by the catalyst of the extinction of the current financial system.
Senators have come out and delivered hours of speech about bitcoin. George Osborne, Britain's Chancellor of the Exchequer publicly gave Bitcoin his vote of confidence by creating a £10m cryptocurrency research initiative in 2015
So i think bitcoin is far more exiting today than it ever was in 2010, because today in 2016 Bitcoin is not looked at as some co-op science project.. it's being looked at as the solution to the current issues that have been caused by the world's central banks
I'm not, because it's still very much in the same position it was in years ago.

It is not that bitcoin is not exiting anymore. It is still fresh, new technology with unknown future - and that is pretty exiting to me.We wanted to set people free.

We have to remember that things of the past seems usually better and brighter than they really were - that is how our memory works.
in december 2011, i guess all bitcoin is frustrated after get bubble in July 2011 the price touch $31 but in december 2011 the price down to $2.
I´m and will be excited ever with Bitcoin.Changed my vision of money.Thanks Bitcoin. 
Similar my case.In fact,its other way around for me.When it started back in the day,I never thought is going this far.I started learning about in for first few months ,purchased a couple coins and forgot about it.Its was only when the ending of 2013 I read an article about bitcoins in a magazine give me chills that its going way far and beyond that I had imaged a year back.

I think the excitement about Bitcoin came, when in 2013 it breached the $200 price for the first time and then again in 2014 when it went above $1000. People flocked to Bitcoin in droves and we had a real buzz going on in this forum. People were happy and fun projects were started and competitions launched and also some nice puzzles.
Since then, a lot of this excitement has died down and I get the feeling a lot of people are waiting for the price to increase to those levels again for them to sell out. If you entered the Bitcoin scene in 2014, when the price were above $1000, this ride must be pretty terrifying and boring. ^hmmmmm^

I will be more excited if/when certain BTC-related events come to pass, for example:
-- more merchants accepting BTC
-- easier & private ways of buying and selling BTC <--- Someone will crack this one sometime, and make a fortune.
-- price going up again...
-- more interesting BTC and blockchain uses (applications) arriving

At that time I still don't know about bitcoin, I knew it around 2015.

The present time is really exciting too. In 10 years, people will look back and say the same about people that is aware of Bitcoin 2016. "Omg it must have been great to buy bitcoin at 3 figures while it was being developed". We are all still early adopters.

Bitcoin is really exciting, i cant wait until i can either be paid in bitcoin or transfer my fiat wages to bitcoin and can then use them to pay my bills.
In 2010/2011 Bitcoin may be exciting but not as much as it is exciting now.
At the present bitcoin is at its bloom and moving towards its peak

In 2010 most BTC users used to think about it as something, that can change the future. It was completely new idea these days, that had been brought to life. With market value close to zero there was nothing more.
Nowadays, people are also excited, but IMO rather in terms of possible personal financial benefits.

The recent price stability of Bitcoin is really remarkable. This stability helps to open new opportunities as a currency.

I was excited because I was mining on my GPu's and it was fun and
affordable.
Before all the criminal bfl's of the world came into existence and with electricity
bills you cant mine anymore (at least around here)
