worst mistake I did with bitcoin is when I lost 0.8 BTC in gambling. the price was at 600 USD back then.

Maximum number of people does the same mistake. Even I did it. Once you have a bitcoin you want to make it double or triple in a quick time and gambling is the only option left for all. So everyone have lost their bitcoins in gambling to grow it in a quick time.

I lost it on Primedice.com

I won in primedice.com but I gave wrong bitcoin address and I didn't receive my winnings Angry

So now if I gamble or whatever I do I check the address twice and then only move ahead. Still regreting for doing such careless thing.

Mined 250 Bitcoins in may 2010 using my laptop, sold them for 3-4 USD

i presume that many early adopters made this same mistake, 2010-2011 were the years of biggest mistake in bitcoin, especially when it stayed at $2 for so long

it was also the worst year for many other that lost coins because they got rid of their old hdd with bitcoin inside

Even after spending almost all of 250 BTC, 0.7 remained in the wallet, but the private key is lost forever.

btcjam! wanna talk about a grade a bonehead thing to get into

Based on people's attitudes on this forum, I'm surprised that this hasn't come up more.

I put .2 BTC in the Jam to test the waters. May just have been chum for scammers, maybe not. Time will tell.

I've made a nice profit from BTCJAM..

The idea someone was going to pay you back 10 000% in a week................... people deserve what they get. If you thought that was real you don't deserve your coins.

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.?

my personal worth mistake and also the worst experience with bitcoin was gambling it which lead to me losing Sad

If you invest in a A+ rated person or company wanting a loan, and they don't pay you back.. how can you lose your money? to be A+ rated they gave all of their credentials and can't hide away.. so how can you lose money when lending for A+ rated persons or companies?

Lost 147 Bitcoins to pirate@40... so stupid.

for how much?

I may be wrong here, but I think they were $5-$7 each at the time.

The annoying part is that I planned to keep them long-term.

Ah well, it taught me a lesson about greed.

thats bad

Managed to sell 1000s of LTC before the run-up to $48.

I am sure there are other mistakes, but there have been some nice wins too

the biggest mistake i ever made to gamble with my hard earned coin at luckybit and lost all there, that made me ashamed and i got a lesson never gamble again at any site with our hard earned coins. Tongue

LuckyB.it is the worst gambling site if you have small bankroll or if you don't play for fun. LuckyB.it is 100% luck based game so there's no strategy, no martin gale and no stuff like this you can use when playing dice. You can't control your odds like you do with dice.. like I said it's 100% luck based and don't play here if you don't a bunch of coins. Play for fun with 0.002 BTC bets on yellow/red and maybe you will be lucky to hit some high numbers.

That is exactly what happened to me, I lost almost 1 Bitcoin gambling on PD and Luckybit. I promise myself that I would never gamble ever again.
Lessons learned from gambling-never again.
