About 2010, and every time I saw it in a news article or some message board posts somewhere about it kept rolling my eyes, thinking "Yeah, Whatever. Doubt it'll go nowhere." Then I bought my first miner in September 2014. Missed the boat the first time around... hopefully I didn't miss the only boat.

I have a bit sad about this. I heard about Bitcoin  March 2012 but I regret I were not interested in about it.

I first heard about bitcoin when it was seeing a lot of media buzz at around the 1200 dollar price range... however, i actually invested in bitcoin much later than when i first heard about it.

I heard it from my friends who accept Bitcoin as payment 1 year ago while bitcoin is hitting around $400 I think, I know I'm late for the party.
Thanks to faucet who let me play with their bitcoins at first, now I understand how Bitcoin works Grin

I first heard of Bitcoin back in 2010 on a YouTube video suggestion on the side. I never bothered taking a look at it though. It wasn't until about 2013 that I saw news about the massive rise in price for a Bitcoin. That was the point. I looked into Bitcoin and was interested. Then, I stopped early 2014, because I was thinking: I can't make a profit. No point for me. So I stopped. I just got back into Bitcoin again just about 2 weeks ago.

Ouch if i heard about it in 2010 i would likely be financially safe in my early 20's which would have been lovely but instead i got here late 2013 and if it was not for trading and doing my thing i would be down a fortune but as it goes i am up a little but could only imagine 'what if' 2010 thousands and thousands of coins and never sell them all   Undecided

I got into when a friend was looking for crap on silkroad and i watched him and could not believe what i was seeing able to get all that in one place did make me laugh and also very curious how it would work so i did and i was hooked, (on the tech) been here since trying to learn and earn as much as i can.

Browsing Youtube, save a "what is Bitcoin video", clicked it, fell in loved. That was about a month or two before the big bubble.

The first time I heard about Bitcoin on Feb 2013. But I were not interested in it at those days. I regret I didn't buy some Bitcoin

I heard about it the summer of 2011 when it hit its $30 bubble. I was confused as hell by wtf it was for a good 2 weeks, then started mining w/ a single gpu and learning and every day since then continued to be in awe of its utility and whoever designed it!

I'm pretty sure I saw one or more brief mentions of bitcoin in the 2011-2012 timeframe, probably in articles in geek/computer news sites like Wired or something similar. But only brief references that made no impression at the time. After Christmas 2013 I was pondering the characteristics of fiat currency (and the dollar in particular), brainstorming about how it could be improved upon, and at that point the headlines about bitcoin topping $1000 forced their way into my consciousness. I realized bitcoin could be very much the sort of thing I was envisioning as a superior alternative to fiat, so I started looking into it, made some comparative assessments, and within a few weeks was mining altcoins and jumping into crypto.

If you bought about 500 BTC those days you will become rich now.
