Topic: My Bitcoin introductory history (Read 207 times)

It reminds me of the old days when I try to explain it to people they hear to me, but they weren't able to accept it. Majority of the people state its virtual presence as the reason, how could a number be valued same as the currency. Now those people could've come to realisation about the technology and how value have evolved out of it. As most users stated, even now in the name of cryptocurrency more scams were happening around. This too a reason why people doesn't have the interest as well as tries to stay away from it.

Calling bitcoin a joke reminds me of years back when I didn't know about bitcoin. I keep asking questions and doubts on how will someone be able to make money out of something he or she can't feel or see. It takes a whole lot of convincing and the help of the forum members posts helps to change my reasoning of calling bitcoin a joke to become a crypto believer.

Each time I hear someone else calling bitcoin a joke, I laugh out loud at that because the person hasn't learned about bitcoin in the right way. He or she is just been blind from the truth, and I don't blame them. I blame the government and the media for projecting bitcoin to be bad for people. Those people who are less exposed to bitcoin, now capitalize on that without researching on their own about bitcoin

It's just like myself; I actually became more interested in Bitcoin after attending a Bitcoin seminar back in school, and today I am very glad that I got into the space because I can say I have archived some good stuff because of Bitcoin or getting into the crypto space generally. Welcome to the space OP. I hope you are aware that your privacy and security should be taken very seriously if you don't want to lose your asset to a scammer. Don't trust anyone with your secret phrase, and also keep it in a very safe place.

That’s how it sounded to almost everyone when they first heard about bitcoin, no one could believe bitcoin was real and for the potentials people claim it had sounded like a scam. People who don’t truly understand the concept of bitcoin will always think it is fake. Few months before the introduction of bitcoin there was a Ponzi scheme that was introduced in my country and it scammed a lot of people that time, so when bitcoin was introduced people didn’t want to believe in it, they all assumed it was also a ponzi scam because they don’t want to scammed again not knowing they are missing out on a golden opportunity at that time.

Everybody has a story about how they first learned about bitcoin, and while it was difficult for most of us, God made it easier in the end. We are all grateful to have found this forum, which has made it much easier for us to fully understand bitcoin. You will benefit from becoming a member of our community and reach your goal (that is if you have one), you are in the correct spot to completely understand the bitcoin concept. I simply hope you are not one of the many newcomers that come here every day saying they want to learn about bitcoin but then eventually vanish. Just find your around and read through threads you will learn so many things and i hope you are already familiar with the forum rules so you don’t end being banned like other newbies.

Glad to hear your story and to know that you got converted. You’re one of the early birds because trust me, Bitcoin’s story and history has only begun; a lot is yet to happen. I wish you the best around this sphere.

Bitcoin cryptocurrency is bad? He never stated that all cryptocurrencies are bitcoin. His statement only shows how Bitcoin is only but a cryptocurrency, understanding that there are so many cryptocurrencies out there.

Let's be honest... the merits will come if you change the "speech", even if your story is real, in fact it probably is, but generally it reads like "templates", yeah, I think all of them in some way more or less words They go on that story route. In any case, welcome to the forum, in a time of pre-halving.

I would advise you to go to the help section and deepen your reading regarding bitcoin, since its context shows "weaknesses", perhaps intentional, but with bitcoin there is always something to learn every day, even with posts like this and that pompous title: My Bitcoin introductory history.

Finally, the passion for bitcoin is reflected more in what we do individually, and it is very easy, buy, sell, hodl, write here on BTT, and in general stay away from scams, oh, and reading and learning every day.

I love sweet stories of people investing in Bitcoin. You know, whenever these stories are told, we often forget that it wasn't a straight path. One of the best things that has ever happened to the world is Bitcoin, and it is easy to see because at first, they ignored it; then it started to get more support, and then they tried to shut it down. All other strategies have failed, and we are right now in the phase where they are trying to indirectly own and control it through their Bitcoin ETFs. And this is what makes it all the more exciting.

Investing in Bitcoin is one thing; investing in learning about how to secure your bitcoins is another thing that you must take seriously because people lose their bitcoins more to the loss of their keys than to scammers and hackers.

Many people including me thought that Bitcoin was a scam. The first time I heard about Bitcoin I never had an interest in it because there was a high rate of scams through crypto and Ponzi schemes. I picked much interest in the coin when I was introduced to the forum and I got more understanding when I began to do more research.

I hope you have graduated from school and can secure a job now. My advice is that you shouldn't see Bitcoin as a full-time job because you need money to invest in it and you can engage in it as a passive endeavor. So go get a job and invest gradually from your earnings using the DCA strategy. The Bitcoin journey is a lifelong experience that is fruitful if you keep learning.

Congratulations that you know how BTC function to humanity and, I believe it will help you grow to some stage that will make you to invest big money on BTC without the fear of scam coin. Many people has made a lot of money from digital currency which you can be part of them if you can develop more skills on decentralized currency which is the easiest way many citizens are making money from BTC and crypto investment in their various society.

BTC is the best coin anyone can invest when the price is low and, it will not make you to have some fear of investing in a wrong coin like the way some people invested in some new projects that is not well popular in the market and, it can bring disappointment at the end to make their customers to regret.

I agree with what @OP said about something good can always come from the unusual. That's true. Before we got to know bitcoin, we never imagined that there would be crypto that could help us get benefits. But after we know that there is a cryptocurrency/bitcoin that can help us make money in the future by using it, it really opens up our horizons that we can make a profit from bitcoin.
And if @OP now realizes the potential benefits he can get from investing in bitcoin, he should start to focus more on investing in bitcoin. Right now, he still has the opportunity to do so, especially since the price of bitcoin can still rise again, so he still has time to buy more bitcoin.

It is normal that many doubted about bitcoin when it was still new, this is just because people no nothing about it. One of the things I observed when bitcoin was still new people never hyped it the way other new projects were hyped and promoted but with time it was get more  recognition. Most early beginners of bitcoin had  a little doubt in bitcoin and I don't think anyone needs to be blame for this . I think when it is best to embrace things that are new it is  when their is a good understanding about. When the proper knowledge is their toward new innovations their won't be any regret going into it, it is good for people to accept and get engaged with bitcoin at the right time when their is good understanding about it.

Every user who joins here has a different story about starting their journey when they first heard the word BITCOIN. Now that you have found a way that can increase your determination in investing in Bitcoin, joining this forum is the best step for you to learn everything related to Bitcoin.
Believe me, your Bitcoin is growing and will continue to spread throughout the world. Never hesitate to invest in Bitcoin because its history has proven that it can survive for more than a decade even though there are many negative issues spread by people who oppose the presence of Bitcoin.

This same experience has happened to many before in the past, they got misled by the people around them all because they were not being told about a positive thing concerning bitcoin and that was the only reason that they missed out the opportunity for making an investment in it and are regretting such loss of privilege already


It's never too late to begin somewhere and have a new start, just always have it in mind that you will need to hold as to be able to make something tangible out of it.

Op could be right at his post while i just tried to view his profile and he seems to be a Fellow Nigerian. Lemme break it down for you, at earlier 2019 there was no effect of Covid-19 in my country there were free movement and face to face talk and discussion while op progress, we have been hearing this lockdown rumor from China and other countries how so many dead case were recorded. So, late 2019 around December the rumor gets to our country Nigeria were they started recording some cases in ABJ and LAG, then early 2020 between February A first lockdown (Seat at home was introduced) in fact to crown it all, the year 2020 was almost spent in Lockdown due to covid-19 then people were just praying for life to leave.

Then back to op, i know it's risky not to take risk why because when the world bitcoin first came to your knowledge you thought it was scammer but then you never knew anything about it maybe you never did any research before jumping into conclusion to classify it as scam or something else but thanks to those who came to your school to advance you people on how bitcoin works and how one can be financially free. I believe it was from this class you pick the courage to delve into bitcoin to discover and unveiled things you never knew before, and lastly you belong to the place where people talks about only bitcoin and I believe you still have long passage to walk through to be fully guided in terms of security and how you could make a successful investments without falling into scam. SquirrelJulietGarden did share some links to you please kindly make reference to those links and educate yourself the more, also do not forget to ask question whenever you seems to be lost or confused about some things though the forum is very large and i expected you to read widely without getting tired.

Can I believe that there is a Bitcoin support group that goes around several organizations to advertise Bitcoin because in 2019 many countries in the world have implemented lockdowns and there are no crowd activities. All types of activities are carried out without face to face.

The Bitcoin support group which makes efforts to promote Bitcoin and even holds seminars for me is an extraordinary initiative as long as what is being promoted is about Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is different from crypto in general on the market. Bitcoin is limited, crypto is not.

After you become part of Bitcoin because of an incident that you have described above, you must learn how to use Bitcoin properly and learn how to store Bitcoin correctly.
This is not a sermon from the pulpit in church.
