Summer 2012. Diablo 3. I bought in game gold with bitcoin @ $3/btc - Spent 90 coins for 500 million in game gold.

IGG = 35 cents / million now.

I lose.

My ultimate regret is that I never been contented in my profit resulting to greed that leads to no-profit at all. That was a considerable amount of Bitcoin but there's nothing I can do but learn and be wiser.
Greed is evil in nature and we all are taught in our childhoods to stay away from this thing. I am so sorry to hear that you lost your profit just because of being greedy but the good thing is you learned from your mistake and now are no longer greedy person. Just try to set your targets with every coin especially with bitcoin and when your coin has reached the targeted value, cash it out for enjoying profit.
I think just create a target and trade as your rules for investment, you can avoid the loss by your greed. I'm a loser and missed many opportunities sell my altcoin (not is Bitcoin) with highest price, almost those coins were increased 200-300% , even 700% but I still was not take profits any coins. That is my big regret after those altcoin dumped to base price again. I hope others can understand the greed always the biggest our enemy

I regret only that it was too late to join bitcoin and missed the opportunity to earn. At first it seemed to me that this was a scam, and now this is the best way to earn money for me.

If you just recently heard about bitcoin or you hear it 3 months or 5 months ago then there is no need to regret since. You can still earn bitcoin or buy and hold it for long term investment.

My worst decision is that i haven't started collecting Bitcoins in 2012 if i did that. I would now have some extra money. In 2012 bitcoin was not so high so if you had bought 10 coins.

You would now have more money. I have now invested in bitcoin hoping that i can help my family with this income.

Most users of Bitcoin has the same regret as yours. In my case, it is somehow related. There are continuous dumps happened and to cut my loss, I sell all of my Bitcoin and converted into Fiat wtihout knowing that it will be able to recover with the backdrops. I sold my Bitcoin when it is priced at 3300 and currently it is priced at 4200 and still increasing. But now, I am planning to again, invest in Bitcoin and would use what I've learned which is to hold during downfalls.

the very worst bitcoin decision i've ever made is when i ignore it i 7years ago instead of  trying, If i just tried it since someone introduce to me,maybe i am one of the richest in the world.
Well then in this case I am very lucky because as once my friend told me about the bitcoin I started the bitcoin and now I am able to earn good income from it. A lot of people like you do not trust in bitcoin and they are not ready to invest in bitcoin but for me it is not good to let the opportunity go and cry later I like to hold the opportunity and wait till the price of the bitcoin will be high.
There are many possibilities in which we will have to use bitcoins and I think, everyone will utilize it at that moment or else bitcoin won't be of any good but generally speaking, avoiding all the exceptions, the worst mistake is converting bitcoin into cash for just having fun and the worst regret is not discovering bitcoin at the early stage or not investing in it then.

One of the worst decisions i made through my Bitcoin journey was to sell all my fund when Bitcoin lost 500$ of value and dropping from 700 to 200$ . I sold 9btc for 220$ each . 9 btc are 39k dollars worth now , so that's one of the dumbest things i've done in all my life .And as for now i always try to keep my cryptos funds because i know how much they can grow in value in the near or mid far feature .

The worst bitcoin decision I ever made was staking a forum member 10 btc to play poker. Long story short, he disappeared with the 10 bitcoins and I never saw or heard from him again. This was back when bitcoin was worth less than $100. I can't remember exactly. I learned my lesson to never lend to or stake anyone no matter how nice or how trustworthy a person may seem, especially when it comes to bitcoin.

Probably the worst decision I made with bitcoins is not having to start as early as bitcoin was introduced in the internet. I usually don't believe whatever I see from the internet specially this bitcoin. Now I feel like an idiot not havingto pay attention from people before who saw bitcoins as a new kid in town. I should've listend and would be a btv millionaire by now.

I should have bought more when its price was $12, but this was somethig totally new for me and I was very cautious and couldn't imagine that its price will rise that high few years later.

It was a new thing and it wasn't promoted by the public press, so I used as a payment method at that time and invested some money as speculation.
The difference between you and those who bought at that time is just the time difference. So many people would have wished back then they bought far lower than $12 when bitcoin was worth less than a dollar and now the $12 has paid. You cannot predict the future but I am sure even though you cannot imagine and all things working out pretty well, few years later some people will be in your shoe wishing they bought at the price you did.

Wrong decision i made just trivial, spending bitcoin i had from collecting it for months on gambling casino in less than 1hour and it became a sour memories.
That are seriously sour memories brother. I am sorry for you but I want to ask you on question. Why you didn’t feel that you have earned this bitcoin after a long period of hard work? Why you just spend it in an hour rather to keep small ratios of spending them? I am curious to get answer for these. Hope you are out of shock and sour memories now.

Well my worst decision is not on Bitcoin but on another altcoins which is Digibyte and Reddcoin.

Digibyte
I bought them at 19 sats, sold them at 60 sats, rebought at 50 sats, sold them again at 110 sats, rebought at 120 sats and sold them at 36 sats.

Reddcoin
I transferred my Digibyte holdings to Reddcoin, I bought at 4 sats each and sold them at 5 sats, 2 weeks later Reddcoin is at 70 sats  Angry

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

Not buying it when i first i approach it, I was passing through this forum years ago with a guest id and leave for a casual part time job that pay me $4/hour


well in my part the worst dicision that i made is that at first i dont believe in bitcoin.now that it is in a high price it is really hard to own bitcoin at this point of time .but i dont have an anger to my self because we cant predict that bitcoin can get a high price now a days.it is really amazing.
