My biggest regrets regarding to bitcoin was, I was too late knowing there's this bitcoin thing, didn't find it could make a person rich, I didn't trust bitcoin's potential before and most of all i could be a millionaire now if i accepted the offer of my friend regarding to investing to bitcoin. If i could turn back time, way back 2013 i would probably invest all my money to bitcoin lol seriously.

My biggest regret is when I got introduced to this back in 2012, I tried to buy £200 worth, the platform was down and I never bothered, just recently woke up to it again at over £4k per coin, it is a physiological thing where I don't want to buy at that price.

As of now I have no biggest regret about bitcoin, I am very thankful to bitcoin because it gives me an opportunity to work while at home.
If there is maybe it is because I did not recognize/know bitcoin when it was first started.

Not learning about it sooner. I had all the opportunities to start knowing about bitcoin earlier, but I tend to ignore it.

I don't have any regrets. The only thing I would change if I could is that I would invest in Bitcoin one year earlier. I have already made a lot of money thanks to Bitcoin but if I had invested more in 2011 then I would have been a millionare right now. Unfortunately, I can't go back in time so I won't be able to fix my mistake. I also missed my chance to talk to with Satoshi Nakamoto here on Bitcointalk.

I think my biggest regret in bitcoin is when I should have known and used bitcoin a year go if only I did not doubt my classmates when I heard them they are using bitcoins. I have not showed interest to it back then because they use bitcoin in gambling. I have thought that it is just a site for playing and it is not a real money. Realizing that, there are so many people back then do not know bitcoin.

I first started to look at BTC about a year ago and didn't get involved until this summer. I totally regret not buying back then, but am thankful I got in when I did!

Should have joined the show earlier, not at $6,000... And it's just a few years time (or not years, few month it was about $3,000, so it has already made 100% since then...)

Not buying some years ago when I nearly did, but didn't for various reasons (life got in the way!)

I sold my bitcoins when it dumped 2000 dollars... Biggest regret!

There are even more other people that are regretting and I'm one of them, I sold some at $1,000 and that's one of my biggest regret and also sold some at $2,000 - $4,000.

But I don't think about it because they are now in good hands and I can see that it's one of my investment. The good thing here is I still got some bitcoin.

And what I'm going to do now is to keep on holding it because the price can reach to another level that can give me a big satisfaction.

When I started back in 2011, I setup 1 computer with 2 Radeon 5850's
Coin value was at 11$
I was getting 2.5 bitcoins per week.
Coin value crashed to 3$

Mined up to 35 bitcoins but at this point, even if I was not paying electricity (miner was at work)
I scrapped the PC to upgrade my main computer... I could have mined hundreds...

Then the second regret is selling the 35 BTC at 24$ each... But hey, I started when it was at 11 and saw it crash to 3$ ...
Sure with that money I rebuilt a miner, then changed to litecoin mining and eventually paid myself a 3000$ trip to greece (got lucky and sold litecoins at 42$ each before it's crash)

But DAMNIT ALL....

If I would have held on to those coins... well that's lots of money.
But no regrets and so far I never lost a cent... all bitcoin investments have been paid off from my original mining rig... If anything I went to Greece for my best friend's wedding just on litecoin mining so...


I was left off with 0.8 BTC (Part mined with my 3 X1's from delayedarrow)
And now expecting hopefully to receive 3 Antminer S9's to get back in the mining game.... All in good fun tho.
I just hope I get my machines... Bitmain has not confirmed they received my payment and that makes me nervous. (1 week old ticket opened)

my regret same as you, I know bitcoin in 2014 introduced by my friend, but at that time I was not interested at all to invest my funds into bitcoin. maybe we should not look back, and do our best to earn income from bitcoin.

When i was new to trading i usually panic when the value of my coins is decreasing and i am very scared then i sell my coins at the lowest price just to get some of the money that i invest and it was a very bad decision because i lost a lot of profit from it.

Probably the most common regret, "I should have bought way earlier".
I pretty much ignored the whole crypto scene when the price was ~200USD, now it bugs me. I should have paid more attention to it.
Fortunately I managed to hop on a bit later.  Roll Eyes

This is regretted by 80% of the members of this forum. I also regret that I began to trust the crypto currency late. I could buy bitcoin for $ 530 if I trusted

Most of us regret is either not buying it early or selling it very cheap. It's not too late yet invest in bitcoin now as bitcoin will continue to rise even more. I have regret that I had sold all my coins too cheap and now I have learned my lesson to not to sell it at cheap and don't believe in any shit news or tweet on bitcoins.

I used to exchange thousands of Bitcoins for Linden dollars on VirWox about 8 years ago. Don't know what happened exactly but I lost interest in it at that time and by now I've forgot all the login information on about every account I've used there. Eh, life goes on...

Not having bought enough when I was in the beginning.
I like when people say that. Let me ask you something, did you know about bitcoin back then when it was a totally insignificant experiment?
Why didn't you buy it back then? Because you probably have no idea how bitcoin scale.
It is easy to say that if you could turn back time while knowing that you know now and bought bitcoin back then.
But what if the current price is not the end of the road for Bitcoin and in the future, we will see even price 10x higher?

my biggest regret about bitcoin is that i came to know about this currency very late (recently in this year only). if i have been made aware of this cryptocurrency back in 2010 or 2011 i would have done a lot of work and would have earned a lot. But still i am happy that i have introduced myself in this community.
There is nothing wrong in getting in late into this platform,but you just missed a golden opportunity to make some good amount of money if you would have known about it earlier,it is not wrong to invest at this time,there are many projects that you can invest and even in bitcoin you can invest at this time,but the price right now is really high,either way the price would increase from the current value.
