I haven't really been keeping up, but I would say I'm down about 2000-2500 over the course of this year (in dollar value)
I still have some bitcoin, and some prevalent alts, but I honestly can't see any of it going anywhere any more. I've lost faith.
I won't sell what I have left, but I have pretty much written it off in all honesty.
Topic: So how much have you lost this year by investing in Bitcoin? (Read 4695 times)
I have lost nothing.....I hold BTC.
All other *wealth* is seizbale.
BTC make you sovereign.

There is something to be said for that. But I don't take such a loss in purchasing power so lightly.
I have gained bitcoins this year.
Considering bitcoin was $740 on 01/01/14
and today is: $340

if you see this and your not in gold/bitcoin you are a naive fool and deserve whats coming.
enjoy your printable papers with pictures of dead presidents on them, i hope you can burn them to keep warm in winter.
I'm in a house, Robert Paulson, a house bought with worthless USD.
It's heated by an oil furnace, a distillate of the stuff that's priced in USD. More convenient and economical than burning $$$.
I'm surrounded by jackbooted gubermint thugs, who keep me safe from you armchair revolutionaries.
For providing this service, these terrorizing thugs get paid in USD, by an evol gubermint that rules through terror and extortion.
And jackbooted thugs.
Have fun keepin' warm by burning Bitcoin ...OWAIT, u can't even burn Bitcoin
Oh well, spring is right around the corner!
You obviously don't know how much heat a miner produce...

That's a good argument, but it comes from an old consensus which is still prevail. There is another consensus slowly gaining traction: When you buy one of such a house and oil furnace, the money printer has already bought himself the whole city (including thugs) using printed money. The difference is that you need to work to buy such a house, and money printer don't need

I'd pay good bitcoin to see what those thugs will do to you once your fiat papers are worthless and you can't pay them...
I'm in the plus column (knock on wood) in terms of trading.
Lost $2,200 in BTC to con-artists on 3 separate instances. I blame myself, I got greedy and ignored my own rules.
Fortunately, that is relatively small compared to my winnings.

A lot, half of my savings. I feel like a total loser because I got fooled by bitcoin proponents who were saying $1000 is cheap, it would go to $100 000.
so far, all the prevoius ath turned out to be cheap in the long run. why would the last ath be the first one where this will not be the case? because of the hundreds of millions of vc capital invested ? because of pay pal, dell, expedia,... ,... and all the other mainstream actors adopting it ? (and all the other great developments that took place in/towards the btc economy, that happened since the april 2013 ath)
bought my first coins right on top of 2011 bubble. i had to wait almost two years to break even. but now even those coins have 10folded.
i suggest patience.
+1

The real question is what the hell are you doing in this forum?
Another worthless troll.....get a life boy if you don't believe in cryptos go out and do something worth.
Anyway, boy, let's come back here in one year.
For people who bought at 1000 and sold at 300: I'm sorry for you of course but you should have hold. This is a medium term target investment or the best way to buy and tranfer value.
You sound like someone who bought too high. With bitcoin you need the balls to sell HIGH and buy low.
There were lots of rebounds this year to Profit from.
And yes, if you bought @ 1000 and didn't sold till now, you should hold or buy more. But don't expect that you will be in a Profit Zone soon.
Mr. Branson, I got in firstly in 2011 (with about 1000 dollars) and in september 2012 I got in a little heavier
. Bitcoin was at 10,20 dollars.Crypto gave me 1 house, 2 cars, 1 pub, another investment in a society and 6 Titans (which, besides, I have just received, hallelujah hallelujah!)
I wouldn't say I bought too high. Certainly I could have sold higher but believe me I am totally satisfied.
When I read troll boys I understand that they try to get in at good prices or maybe they are payed (don't think much) by some banker.
But I think this forum and cryptos in general should somehow get rid of this rubbish. And frankly speaking I'm too old to bear these behavior.
Go to school BOYS, you need to grow up a little more.
Thank you.
Back in 2013 Bitcoin was too big to bring any ROI anytime soon. Hypothetically the most ROI left in Bitcoin is maybe 1000x. This is compared to the earliest adopters who have seen 450,000x return (people who bought or mined in 2009 when it was fractions of a cent) and if Bitcoin did go up another 1000x then their return would be 4.5x million.
Bitcoin rich get richer and they've assumed no capital risk. $20 - $200 investment in 2009? That's compared to people who've drained their life savings or reverse mortgaged their homes and are now left holding the bag.

If you're worried about your investment you invested too much. If the volatility is making you stressed, maybe come back in a few years when things have stabilized.
Sorry to be blunt, but the market has a way of weeding out dumb, greedy investors. It takes far more brainpower to understand the protocol and it's potential value in the future than it does to throw a stupid amount of money at something you've done nearly zero research about besides reading "to da moon" posts.

I buyed @ 1000 with 1/3 of my uninvested savings. Thanks god, they were not so much
