Overall it was an good experience about bitcoins as it started to give me some extra income which I was always looking to earn apart from my full day job income and it will always give you a good feeling when your wealth is increasing.
Yeah. Most of us when we started got into Bitcoin, because we were looking for ways to expand our income. In my case, when I saw Bitcoin's price valued at $300, I've immediately started to seek for ways to make an income out of it. At first it was faucet earnings, but then I've realized that it was not worth it being hours in front of the computer for just a few pennies.
Later, I got into cloud mining, but I was scammed many times. I can't forget how much BTC I've lost with GAW Miners and cloudminr.io. I've even invested heavily in Paycoin, as it was promised to stay at $20 per coin. By the time XPY failed, I've lost nearly all my money, and was about to quit Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
However, I did not give up, and thus decided to explore the forums more thoroughly, where I found an opportunity to join a signature campaign, which has helped learn more about Bitcoin, as well as make me a nice side income.
Nevertheless, when we first start into Bitcoin, we gain experience to help avoid making any bad decision into any kind of investment in the long term.
