My worst bitcoin decision was when I entered into here in this forum and then the rate of  btc was as low as some of the altcoins today. It was then I did not trust the concept of bitcoin and considered it all as a fake. i had an opinion that bitcoin had no backing and if any loss happens to us in the crypto market there is no prospect or scope for recovery. So never did i trust on the concept of the bitcoin. At that time I  had ample funds and i wasted all my funds into stock market. that was the worst decision of my life and i regret that decision until now.

I sold most of the bitcoin I got from mining as soon as I got it. I got multiple coins a day and some them for between 5-10$ each.

I saved 80 coins and basically forgot about them. I kept the wallet password on my desktop like a moron and my ex wife deleted it when she decided to tidy up the computer. I read a story that bitcoin was up to like 10k and remembered I had those coins. I was fucking elated...until I tried to locate the wallet passcode. The data had been overwritten too many times to recover on my own and a 3rd party company was unable to recover it.

It keeps me up some nights. I wish I would have kept physical and digital backups. I just didn't expect bitcoin to be worth thousands.

My worst decision that I made with my bitcoins was selling them at $215 usd many years before, I needed the money and I had no other choice to get some money and decided to sell them, it was a bad decision but it worth-ed to me a lot at that time.

I think the worst decision i've ever made in bitcoin is I didn't buy bitcoin when it was below $300 in early of 2015 because I instead bought a pc game. And If I'm start to thinking about that and comparing with the current price, that will make me regret.

This one is a no brainer. Paid roughly 3500 bitcoins for a mini rig. At the time btc was approx 8 bucks a piece. Had I held on to them, I would have become a millionaire a few times over. Had BFL shipped on time, it would been a good bet, but It was bad timing. I also should have invested into friedcats deal. I came really close, but didnt..  It seems like every investment turned out bust. the ones I turned out were the ones i should have invested in.. So, I totally believe in buying and holding.

My worst decision that i ever made is all the bitcoins that i save, lost because i have been scam by a stranger that i met in trading. By that very moment i learned that i should be more careful to people that i never knew very much because nowadays it's hard to give your trust to a stranger

the worst decision about bitcoin I ever made happened at the end of 2017 ago, I was too quick to sell the bitcoin I had because I needed the money but after I sold it, the bitcoin price had gone up so high and I did not have the bitcoin I would sell again because I already sold it

Bought 20BTC for $14USD April 2011.

Should have bought a thousand - I'd be able to pay off my house.




i should have started investing in 2011. when it wa still cheaper. now, takes thousands to for 1BTC. that was my worst decision not following the recommendation of my friends.

My worst decision i made is to be more patience in Bitcoin. Back when the price of bitcoin in 2012 i think $10 that time i was so regret to buy because of so many news that bitcoin is non-sense coin that exist in internet but today i realize that was my biggest mistake i have.

The worst decision I have ever made is to HODL my coin long enough that it already lost its value. When I got my coin from bounty reward, the price was 0.8 BTC. 3 days after that, the value keeps on dropping until I suddenly needed the money to pay for needs. I was forced to sell it to 0.2 BTC. The value dropped and I should have sold that, it just so happen that  I don't have ETH that time so I'm unable to send it to Yobit as well. I was thinking that its not for me and I am happy to get 0.2 BTC to pay for my bills.

i decided to start late on doing bitcoin-related activities such as bounty programs. i've let so many opportunities to pass because of it. whenever i think of christmas, and the price of bitcoin is at its highest it just makes me feel triggerred.

My only regret is not spending my life savings on Bitcoin back when I first learned about it, when it was going for $15 a piece.

Oh well.

Many people have similar regrets after seeing the success of bitcoins. They can go for alt coin and expect it to be next bitcoin.

My worst decision is when i invested my money coming from my small business, and used it to a gambling site, and turn it all to ashes Sad its my worst decision from my past that even now i still remember what i did and what i throw.

Just curious. How did you gain control of this account? You are not the original owner of this account, Mr. Ethan Mckibben?

BTW, we also have your email address, VPN company, IP, and location, among other useful data.

Yes these sites make us fool and we loss within seconds you do not know when you loss your coins so it is a very foolish decision to involve in such profit sites.

These are sites just by name and totally fraudster sites. I have never been with such foolish acts and do not want to involve in such inverse profitable sites to get shortcut money. Just do your Bitcoin investment and make profit is an authentic way and easiest one.

Hmm, I (and, as far as I can tell, the user I quoted) got those tokens from a signature campaign - I didn't buy / gamble for them or whatever. Also, not that I've spent much time researching it but, as far as I can tell, Spectre.ai isn't a scam / fraud (last I checked, the site wasn't even fully functional yet).

So, like I said, the only "foolish acts" I made was not just selling the tokens immediately. Tongue

Actually I don't have any worst decision as of now I just wish I could save all my bitcoin earnings and put them as my investment so that in the future I will have a good profit that could have been my worst decision but I can't do anything to keep them because I need it now to finance my expenses , maybe if I can have a good earnings this year I save some for investment

Worst decision I've ever made is when I ignored Bitcoin the moment I discovered it. I knew Bitcoin since 2016 and its price is very cheap. If I had believed in him that time, for sure I have many Bitcoin now already.

My worst bitcoin decision i'll ever made is I sold my bitcoins immediately at a cheap price so much I regret what I did before.
Yeah it is the worst mistake most of the new users use to do, if they will have patience they can get the advantage from bitcoin, once you buy never ever think about selling it earlier I have bought some bitcoin in 2017 but I still hold my bitcoin I have no such plan to sell out my bitcoin right now because I have a lot of patience and don’t wane get lose from my investment so I will not be regret in future for selling my bitcoin at very low price.

The worst thing I have ever done in bitcoin is that i never trusted it in the first place and never believed in my friend about it. It was at its lowest price at that day and i have the power or the amount of money to buy a lot of it yet i choose to go blind and believe what we do best when a new culture thay was introduced to you, assume that it is a scam or something bad will happen. Now, i know that going out of my box could do a lot of possibilities and dissadvantages which is both good in learning and experiencing.

When I first joined this market I invested in bitcoin when it was priced at 9k and when bitcoin went down 7k got me confused and sold out. This has made me lose quite a bit of money.
