Topic: What were your experiences with Bitcoin when you first started? - page 51. (Read 55268 times)
I lost my focus the first time I used it. I thought it was difficult. I know I joined a lot of Bitcoin mining sites but I left one by one due to some complications. Yes, I find it complicated, but a friend readily explained to me about Bitcoins and introduced me to Bitcoin that is easy to work with. I joined under him and now it is one of my favorite online earning money making sites. I wish I have one right now though.
The first time I know bitcoin feel strange and confused how the coin work even I have to start from where to get bitcoin, I find out how to get bitcoin by searching digrup facebook first and I found many people who spread their referral link, Because initially I am still a layman then I follow the ref link and after that it was mined bitcoin by typing chaptca or it could be called bitcoin faucet.
After a long time I worked on the task and the result is very little spend only time, Gradually I was recommended by my friend to join the bitcointalk forum then from there I learned all that is in this forum and it turns out I can learn a lot from this forum how to get bitcoin everything is in this forum.

To be honest my first experiences with Bitcoin was faucets! I used to be obsessed when I learned that I had made 5 satoshis for every click. Today, I laugh at my past with Bitcoin faucets. I am much more knowledgeable about Bitcoin now and rather than 5 satoshis I made around 0.1 Bitcoin for every trade I do.
Hard to say, there was a content sharing site that would give satoshis for every like you get so I got a few from there, then bought a few as well. Probably the experience to share would be the lesson I learnt the hard way, invested in a cloud mining site, thought of increasing my bits with a solid investment, but after a couple of weeks, boom. The site went away with everything, so no more cloud mining.
I first started off with bitcoin faucets. I was looking for ways to earn money during my free time and I stumbled upon online articles about bitcoin. I had little knowledge on bitcoin back then, but I knew that I could generate income from it. I was too scared to try out mining or gambling sites so I tried out faucets and PTC ads click sites. The progress was really slow that I eventually gave up. Then, my friend introduced me to use bitcointalk.org
the lack of knowledge is my first experience when i started to bitcoin because it is hard to know where to start and what are the best thing to do to earn bitcoin it takes a lot of time and research to understand it. we all started to nothing but time pass and we can learn more and gain knowledge just be patient.
When I first started I googled Bitcoin, wallets and mining and it pointed me here, to the forum. I started reading and learned everything I needed to know within a day. In the next week I was already hooked and owned some coins. It's not hard to learn about Bitcoin as there are multiple youtube videos for beginners and guides here on the forum, you just have to spend some time reading and watching.
I was first aware of it in 2009. Forgot completely. Became dimly aware again in 2011. Did nothing. Got rolling properly in mid 2013. I feverishly read up on it for a couple of weeks. Looked up Gox, thought 'this is the NASDAQ of Bitcoin? Fuck that' and went to localbitcoins.
Almost all of the 'opportunities' and businesses looked like blatant scams to me and time proved it to be correct. I've learnt vast amounts of new stuff along the way.

Similar stuff. I found out about bitcoin in 2010, decided it was a neat idea but had no potential, and went on with my life. The late 2014/2015s roll around and I find myself realizing that the price is now in the hundreds. Definitely one of the things I regret the most, but I'm still happy that I got in the game relatively quickly.
Similar thing happened to me mate. While I started with Bitcoin in 2014, I realized that I was a little too late considering that the price were around the hundreds, but I quickly invested some money into it and now look at the price. It is nearly double than what I had invested when I first started. If I knew about Bitcoins in 2009-2010 I would have bought a bunch of them and today I would have been a millionaire. But anyways, better late than never.
Yeah. Even though we know bitcoin before but didn't played with it or never actually put investment we sometimes regretful of our decision. But its never too late though. I was happy I was able to go back into bitcoin and this time I put focus on it besides my other business. So now I'm enjoying both worlds because bitcoin really gave me opportunity as a additional cash flow on my business. I will continue to earn and invest through bitcoin because the potential is there for us. We just have to take advantage of the situation to make money out of it.

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?
I know bitcoin a few months ago. Also not exactly a good start. I hear my friends talk about bitcoin quite long but I don't care for, until you I just how to earn bitcoin how.My friend explained to me a lot about bitcoin, but very difficult for me to understand, maybe I do not have expertise in this field. Current I'm still learning and earn bitcoin. 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.

This community will also make you panic to sell what you hold when a fud is almost like the true story behind. I was a victim long before I learned to relax and search for the truth myself before dumping my coins. If you have panicked lately, you get used to it soon. 
Yeah. I've had bad experiences in my early days with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies when some members of the community started spreading FUD making me panic sell most of my coins. One altcoin which I regret selling it is Monero because of the FUD that was being spread into the forums a couple of years ago.
By that time, there were a lot of posts and threads about Monero, so I was confused whenever to sell it, or be left holding the bag. When I saw prices decline, I've decided to sell most of my XMR when it was worth around $0.60 USD. Now, it is worth nearly $50 and I'm regretting what I did in my early days.
Something similar happened to me in Bitcoin as well, but now I'm aware about most of the things that occur within the Bitcoin community, analyzing the situation before making my move.
Nevertheless, I'm hoping to gain more experiences each day, so that I could educate others who are new into this field to help avoid scams and other undesired situations.
at first I thought bitcoins were too complicated so I just ignored it 
now I regret it real bad.
That is not the case only with you but a number of people including me are regretting the case that we have ignored it at the starting time when we heard it and that was its initial time and we would be very rich if we would adopt it at that time. now I regret it real bad.
My first experience about bitcoin was not very encouraging because I started gathering satoshis via faucets and my daily satoshis gathered was not much after spending so much time on my laptop and using much data I was discouraged until I stumbled on this site which gave me the opportunity of earning Bitcoin by signature campaigns.

My first experience in bitcoin was to buy some satoshi on my friend for altcoin trading at poloniex, I was taught my friend to trading, even though he just said it was simple, buy enough at cheap price and sell at high price, the fact is not simple
I have experience sleeping late at night reading about bitcoin. A friend just told me about bitcoin, I could ask him about bitcoin but I prefer doing research and answering the questions myself because I know that he is so busy in bitcoin. I was also scolded by my father and told me stop because this is not good for my health. I did not stop even if my parents would always remind me about it. I really want to earn money and through earning bitcoin and saving it up, I can now afford buying the things I need in school like components for my school project without asking money from them. I am really thankful that bitcoin have been introduced to me.
When I started with bitcoin like most people here I had almost no knowledge about bitcoin but immediately I knew that I wanted to be part of this, I bought some bitcoin but obviously I made some mistakes since I was not used to the violent moves the price does.
Ah, the good ole days when I was able to simply pay .15 cents for a TX and the price of 1 BTC was around $400. Damn, I really regret not getting into buying a ton of Bitcoin with the money that I had. There's a killing to be made from holding and investing but I don't think I'd do it anymore. Though, my experience with it was all around pretty good-- my TX confirmed fast even while I was paying 15 cents for a TX.
Now if you paid 15 cents it'd probably take weeks to even come close to one miner thinking about confirming your tx. SEGWIT PLEASE!

now I regret it real bad.
It was 2013 when I read an article about Bitcoin. Since I was unsure that underage users can use bitcoin, I wasn't using it. In 2015 when I became teen, I registered my first blockchain.info bitcoin wallet over Tor. I was too paranoid and afraid it may become illegal at any time. I was collecting bitcoins from faucets. Now I moved these coins from blockchain.info and using Electrum, Mycelium and still Blockchain over clearnet (registering second account). I have several Blockchain wallets.
