The worst mistake I've done is I bought when Bitcoin was at 1200$ and sold at when it was 180$. Ok, that's 2 different mistakes actually. But the point is I'm very bad at trading Bitcoin. Cheesy
I stopped trading and use buy-hold strategy, since then I accumulated more coins in my stash.

Not be an early adopter. I heard about bitcoins around 2010. Too bad, I was 14, didn't understand anything.

same age dude , i also heard bitcoins before that time but just ignored it since i don't have any interest in such things, all i do that time is play dota 1(on Garena) and browse facebook Grin

What's the worst mistake you did with your Bitcoin? It can vary from starting to use Bitcoin to buying dumped Altcoin to gambling.

The worst mistake I made with Bitcoin is... Buying cloud mining hashrate. I bought 0.02 GH/s CEX.IO hash rate voucher at SEOClerk for $2 USD - or maybe $1 USD. I thought with 0.02 GH/s, I would be making a profit in half a year.. And I was wrong.

Well, I bought using the free five dollars coupon. So that does not count as making a mistake with Bitcoin. However, the slow profit lead me to buying hashing power from CEX.IO and later on.. ZeusHash using the Bitcoin I earned from signature campaign.. Again, I thought I would be making profit in a few months. Till today, I'm sure I have not make any profit from both the company yet. CEX.IO stopped their cloud mining operation and.. ZeusHash.. What do you think.?

i have said it before and i will say it again. most cloud mining companies are not to be trusted. you cant even really tell if they are mining or not.

My 3 biggest mistakes were all in the year 2011. I went through the hassles to buy bitcoin back then. And i played it agressively invested a pretty large sum for me. Mistake here? 3 Things:

1. I thought that bitcoin is a pump and dump sheme. So i got mentally totally prepared to sell it. I didn't really trust Mtgox but thought they had a professional trading plattform. So when btc started falling from 30$ i pressed the sell button, but my order was not going through so i was hammering my keyboard, beeing total in awe for about 10min (worst 10min of my life) when the order finally got through i was totally goxed. To believe that Mtgox had a professional trading engine was a big mistake.. Today when i think about it i can only laugh that i thought --something-- could have been professional about Mtgox... After that i really added this on my mental list of trading risks: when trading underground plattforms, do not expect that you are able to sell any minute you want to.

2. In the then falling market i did something you should never do: I tried daytrade and make some of my losses back, result: more losses.

3. After bitcoin then in 2011 fell, i thought "well that's the end of this pump and dump". I was clever enough to make myself an Outlook reminder for 6 Months later to check prices again - but it didn't help. I looked at the chart mumbled something about "well it stabilized, but i don't know" and forgot about it. If i had have been checking this 3 months later or so, i would have made the investment of my life so far.

Another worst mistake I did with my beloved bitcoin is the Scrypt.cc saga way back on my first journey in bitcoin last March this year. Why it's a mistake? You already know but good thing I get back my ROI. I only invested a small amount there but that amount was big enough for me that time since I don't have an idea in signature campaign and only rely on faucets way back then.

playing investing in hyip and I tried my first direct investment with a fairly large value, then they scam  Angry

same mistake. i wasn't aware that time of how HYIP and ponzi works, all i know is that i will invest to the site and i will get guaranteed returns + high profit but i was wrong all the time , i invested a large amount i can do and lose it all when the site turned scam. that was the biggest mistake i did with bitcoin (so far Cheesy)

We had the same mistakes , LOL. I think there are more like us made the same mistake and we should make a club haha. Due to my greed and being naive, I was also scammed by ponzis

I have done many bitcoin mistakes such investing into alt coins scams, but my worst mistake was when I once sent around 1 btc to the wrong address. Always double check the address before sending any bitcoin.

1 BTC???

Shit!

It's very bad... :/

My worse mistake was i buy a cloud mining contract.  Never invest high amounts of BTC in things like cloud mining and ponzi schemes.
Which cloud mining did you invested in? I invested in btc-flow and only got half of my investment.
