Ok, but seriously,
1) bought silver with it. BTC skyrocketed, silver crashed. Only buying lead from now on, which will continue being manipulated by the government to probably be $100 for 230gr before I die of old age.
2) tried to sell on Bitfloor, which got "hacked".

Not investing $2k when BTC was $2. Wife told me to go for it and I bought hardware instead.... 
Ok, but you made 100ish bitcoins still?
made 54 coins all up but spent them as I mined them on fuel, groceries, 1.5kW solar panel system, etc..
still have two of the GPUs, a Jally and adding some next gen hardware this week from the profits.
Did OK by turning $2K into ~$7K but it could have been $2K into $1M (buy $2K when $2/BTC for 1K BTCs then sell 1K BTCs @ $1K during peak for $1M)
Oh well...got some goodies out of it I suppose and now self renewing wallet / hardware
Still has to be your best investment lifetime in % wise over such a short period of time! Most people forget that, when they say things like "Only 500% return"

There are a lot of stories like that here. I didn't even know about bit coin until the Gox thing happened. I saw a news report and decided to read up on it and got hopelessly hooked.

Sent 800BTC to a old Gox adress.
Oh no!!!! Gosh, this is the worst I've read so far...
Was it accidental?
Oh man, it hurts just to read it...
Yeah, kind of got lost in the moment and didn´t double-check the adress.
But i´m working on getting ´em back.
Didn't buy all I could when Bitcoin was $650 in 2014
So frustrated for buying just 10 coins when the price was $420..
Also missed very nice $380 price this April: I was on a Caribbean trip that time and was completely away from internet, cell phone..

Sold 300+ BTC at $100 or something.
Spending 450 BTC on BFL miners in June 2012.
Almost getting in during summer 2013 but didn't.
And equally bad, not buying more when I first did.

670USD/coin, we can still make a huge profit when Bitcoin gets huge

Didn't hold the 12 million doges I had at the very beginning of the coin, I bought most of them at 4 satoshis.
Butterfly labs fraud
Sorry that happened to you. There will inevitably be some losses as bad businesses are exposed and go under. I hope you get your funds back.
Well I got my miners but if I just bought bitcoin in 2012 i'd have tons more
I see, that is why I can't quite bring myself to spring for new miners. I buy up used stuff with fiat but I won't spring for new gear that will be obsolete in a short time.
