I would like to know what experiences did you had when you first started with Bitcoins. As for me, I had many that I would like to share with you.
When I began in the Bitcoin world, I was a complete rookie with no proper knowledge of how did mining worked or anything about cryptocurrencies. I just thought about Bitcoin as another payment processor like PayPal. But when I joined the BitcoinTalk community, I learned so many things along the way. In my process of learning in the first days, I decided to invest into cloud mining services. Since I didn't knew much about it, I invested a plenty amount of Bitcoins to start my journey into it. During that time, I had gotten into many different services. Those were GAW Miners, then Cointellect, cloudminr.io and finally Hashnest. After getting scammed many times by the services mentioned previously, (except for Hashnest) I have lost many Bitcoins. As a result, I decided to never invest into cloud mining and thus dedicate myself into learning more about the cryptocurrency and look for other ways to earn Bitcoins. It was then that I enrolled into the signature campaign that I am currently into and during all that time I began to earn Bitcoins as well as diversify my investments into different alt coins. Now I am dedicated to trading Bitcoins and other alt coins, as well as working for it (like the signature campaign and working as a freelancer) in order to earn coins and build up my portfolio along the way.
Anyways, what would be your experiences with this exciting cryptocurrency?
My first time to know about Bitcoin was way back 2014 during the big news of Gox and also a social media platform Bitlanders where I am interacting. I am not actually paying attention to Bitcoin I just thought Bitcoin is another form of payment. I ignored and showed no interest in Bitcoin during that time because I thought it was a scammy coin as what I've had read on news and social media and some random people shared negative reviews about it before so I refrain from investing money because I know I can't afford to lose it I only chose to invest my time.
Year 2015 I am into faucets but after a couple of months I lost my interest because I was addicted to mobile games. Early 2016 I get back to faucets and then stopped again for games. During the last quarter of 2016 when I was surfing the net I came accross into reading an article about Bitcoin in our local freenet forum with the link included which is of Bitcointalk forum so I decided to make a try and registered an account and at first I was afraid and felt difficulties to interact with the forum because I don't know what to do so I decided to explore but then again after a couple of days and months I was into games, freenets and apps so lost my interest again with Bitcoin.
It fortunately came to an end of my addictive games when I was scrolling on social media on I think that was way back March 2017 and once again read an article about Bitcoin but this time a detailed one with screenshots and proof of income and guess what? It still has the link of Bitcointalk forum and maybe it was a call for me to be in this forum because it keeps on showing so from that time to this day I spent my full time and I am now in here and hopefully will still be here learning and earning decent amount of money through Bitcoins. I regret those time of ignoring and having no interest with Bitcoins during those early days I am just wasting my time with nonsense things. If only I invested my time, hardwork and money that time I might be a millionaire now.
