When Cloud mining was a "IN THING", I bought some hash power from GAW / PBMining / Cex and never ROI on any of it.
I also dropped some money on some beginner Ponzi scheme's to try it out, and I lost some there.... not a lot though. The coin I gambled with, was no mistake, just pure enjoyment.
I also bought some coins at the wrong time, and panic sold it, when the price took a nose dive... but since made up for that, by timing the trades and selling at the right time.
Mistakes are there to learn from... the people who do not make mistakes, are most probably the ones who are not trying new things.
I did some ponzi investment and I'm lucky to make some profit from it.

Agree with your last sentence. I have learnt not to invest into cloud mining after my two attempts fail.
Worst mistake is that in 2010 i buy a second hand ps2 for like 25 btc when it was like 2 dollars a coin, the seller forget about it and finally remember them when it is $1200 a coin.
Sometimes i still cry about them lol
So you send the coin and he never come back. The seller only came back when 25 Bitcoin is worth $1200 and than he send you the product? At least he send the product to you and not taking the 25 Bitcoin away. If I were you, I will ask for a refund. I rather risk the seller not sending me the product than being ripped off.
No the seller was my friend, after i paid him i get the ps2 that day. He said he would sell them when btc is 5 dollars a coin but he forget about them. When it reach 1200$ he suddenly remember it and cash out.
Uh. If I were you I would not trade 25 BTC for a PS2 which I could only receive if Bitcoin increase by 250%. It must be one of the worst mistake this thread will have.
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.?
The greatest mistake I did with bitcoin was to use a gambling site... I never bought bitcoins to gamble but I got so addicted that i would be on the site all day long and whenever i go out i would be thinking about it all the time and this went out for 7-8 months... I don't know how i stopped but atleast i stopped and i try to remain as far as possible from those sites..
I can see that you're trying to get away from casino from your signature - you're not taking part in a casino/dice campaign. I hope you will never visit any online gambling site again - even if it is physical casino, avoid it.
