Its not worth decision about btc when you lose that coins on gambling. You would lose anything there, even a car or a house. So for me there is no worst decision with bitcoins, everything is going just good. I`m learning about things, and for each lesson I need to pay. Doesn't matter if its on gambling, trading, investing in some service, or casino bankroll, when we lose its price that I pay for learning.
I didn't make to many mistakes, except that I should read more carefully about affiliate programs before, I didn't know nothing about it and cause of that I'm on loss some good money I think. But again its about something else, I don't think this decision have anything with bitcoins, its my fault that I would made even with real money, its cause I didn't have experience like I have now.

Many worst decisions made in the past, investing in doubler/ponzi/hyip/gambling which took away all my savings and left with nothing in my hands, so now I prefer to stay away from those things.

That happens with everyone at first even happened with me too, and you know what is the thing that hurts the most that time? That you lose the coins you earned after many days of hardwork of faucets or small tasks.

The worst would be not starting up soon after my friend introduced bitcoins to me.  I was not convinced on how she presented it to me.  I have so many questions before and then the time comes that I needed an extra money.  So I am here now.  But if I started before I could have more bitcoins now.

It's ok dude because for me even if it is too late you still manage to make a good decision which can improve your life. If you did not decide to try bitcoin then i think for me that was the worst decision in life you would ever made.

Hi, all. I know that everyone here would have made some terrible decision about BTC. So I was wondering, what is the worst decision that you have ever made.

Personally, my worst decision was gambling 1.3 BTC in dice, just yesterday. Smiley

Damn, worst decision is gambling, how easy to predict. You was right, and lucky too, stop when it's just 1.3 bitcoin. I have just read a comment of a Hero member said it takes 2 years for him to earn that amount of bitcoin.

My biggest mistakes were putting bitcoin into altcoins and then getting emotionally attached to the coins.

The result was not selling at the top and holding (and buying more) at the bottom, only for the coins to stay stuck at the bottom and having the developpers leave.

Lesson learned, follow the volume.

Compared to yours, my losses are nothing, losing 1.3 btc in just a single day is really a bad feeling, i saw someone crying around somewhere in the forum for losing something similar to yours and wishing to kill himself.
Well my mistakes were always investing in hyips which never turned out to be good obviously, though i did not lose much but according to what i used to earn that time it was a lot for me.
And that's why you shouldn't invest in HYIP's, even if they pay out a couple of times, you will probably lose in the long run.
Plus you're enabling them to scam other people too.

Hyip's will pay you at initial stage to gain trust from you, and you will try to invest higher amount to get higher profits but then those sites will simply disappear with your investments.
It's just for gaining the trust and reputation but at the same time if you already believe with them and you will teach your close people about that and another impact you will plunge your close people to joining with them and losing their fund's because of you.
Yes HYIP sites pay in starting so that they start getting more and more investment from users as people spread among each other that they got paid by the site. I think the best way ( if any and I personally advice don't ever use HYIPS ) is to invest in early stage and then screen out as soon as possible and as soon as you got some profits.

The worst decision I is not buying when the price is still low bitcoin

While your worst decision was not buying it at lower price, my worst decision is when I sold my bitcoin at lower price(200usd). At that time, I thought bitcoin price wont up again and I got only small information about bitcoin.

Yeah even I sold when the price was $250 last year and still regretting, if I would have not sold at that time then I would be enjoying best profits at this stage and that was really a worst decision.

If you don't buy right now, at this moment, you will say that exact same thing a year or two from now. That's a loop that a lot of people are stuck in. In the future, if you don't buy at that moment too, you will regret it again after a year or two.

Bitcoin's price will always increase over time because of the halving, new investors joining, more and more companies are starting to accept Bitcoin, and more and more people are starting to like using Bitcoin. So invest now, or you'll regret it again later.

Yes this is the right time to buy bitcoins as price is relatively lower and in future when we will see new investors and big companies getting into it which will take price to higher level.

My worst decision was having a paper wallet which my roommate binned thinking it was garbage.

Also, using Armory and then quitting, so I would have to download a near 80+ Gigs years later to try and unlock a few mBTC
Ouch! I guess that's a significant risk of keeping a paper wallet. I like the double edged sword that they are both the most and least secure way of keeping a wallet.

Lost 300 BTC by "investing" in BTCST .......  Roll Eyes Cry

300 Bitcoins?  Shocked Who told you to put all your eggs in one basket? This mostly happens when people don't think before investing somewhere or when they get greedy to earn a lot of money at once and in that hurry they just do it without any research or something about that source they are investing with.
It's not that he didn't think. Actually, he did and he thought that it might be profitable to invest them there, which is why he did.
300 btc, there's only about 25% of total bitcoin users that have near that much, and I don't think you invested all of your coins so you probably have some still left.

Yeah it can be hapen to our live even me i know bitcoin past 2011 but i didnt try to collect bitcoin instead i just ignore it many forumers are saying to me that better to collect bitcoins right now so that you can earn money.. i didn't know the benefits of the price increase that the price of bitcoin will increase more..

The fact is we never believed in the potential of bitcoins in the past, and we never thought that it will be holding this higher price in future which hesitated us to put our money into it.
