A few months before i heard Max Keiser mention it, though really digital currency has past most people minds before BTC came around

it was purely the Complete Cryptographic package combined with Networking Strenght that made it so successful

E-Gold has apparently made a comeback too of the back of Bitcoin

I knew of it since 2012 when a friend gave me some faucets to clic..I am so much retarded for not buying a few hundred btc then when it was just over 1 dollar. I will be kicking myself in this lifetime forever because of this but it seemed way too techy and nerdy back then for me to really grasp the idea behind it. Cry

Not sure when I heard about it, got my first transaction in november 2013, do know I was watching to buy a coin, then arround $ 70,-,  waited for my paycheck to come in, the moment it did, it went up to $1000,- that was a bit of a downer for me, shouldn't have waited Tongue
But did embrace bitcoin and have been looking for ways to contribute to the bitcoin economy, selling my service as a cartoonist, chasing another life goal which is getting paid for what I like doing the best, drawing cartoons Smiley

I heard it at July 2012. Its price about 10$. But it seemed to me very speculative, so I did not make any investment.

I live to rue it Cry

Beginning of 2013, forgot about it for a bit, and then rediscovered it towards the end of 2013!

I can't remember the exact time but I think it was early 2014 with all the news coverage about Silk Road. That definitely caught my attention and I was hooked since then though I didn't buy my first coins until a few months after. I was doing some research on bitcoin and the best ways to buy.

I first heard about Bitcoin in 2011, when the exchange rate was around $0.10. But I didn't took it seriously and waited for 2 more years to purchase my first coin. By then the exchange rate was 1BTC = 10 USD.

When it was $10...
Didn't buy in because I thought I had already missed the bitcoin train.
That same year I got into Gold mining and bought a claim, did good, paid for itself the first year.
A few years later, in 2013, sold my mining claim to buy mining hardware as Mt. Gox was crashing.
Next year, I will be going back to Gold mining but will also have a bitcoin mine.
Today I mine Bitcoin, E-Mark and DigiByte for an investment.

For me it was 2013 when it was worth just above 1000$ seeing how the value had gone from under 1$ to over 1000$ was just so amazing, I though it would just increase more and more Tongue
Anyway i'm really glad i started using it, so when did you first hear about Bitcoin and what did you think about it? Smiley
i hear bitcoin from my friends on facebook last year.
he's posting that we can make money from bitcoin, so i look after it on his blog.
and after i know, i can make money from bitcoin, i look more information about what is bitcoin. and i really love it.
the idea and the concept is very good.
