i did many mistakes with btc..
first of a big mistake was to deal with a scammer guys who ripped my btc worth 50$ USD..
and then i bought 1337 coin at 5000 satoshi when it's market was too good.. and now it is stopped with only 2 satoshi value each per coin..
and third mistake is gambling.. i lost in gambling btc worth 2 USD...

My biggest mistake was never join the site ponzi, I lost a lot of bitcoin therefore
I think you mean is "your biggest mistake was you've joined on a ponzi site" Well no doubt about that, anyone who will invest on a ponzi will be a big mistake Wink

I was too lazy to use 2FA on localbitcoins.
This summer a criminal organization stole from my account $11k worth of bitcoins. They accessed my gmail and then localbitcoins, facebook and some other shit sites too.

How can this be happen? Maybe you have mistake did too other than forgetting to use 2fa in your localbitcoins account. That is really a lot of money. How come you didn't make it secure.  Huh

Forgot to back up wallet before reinstalling new one

The same shit happened to me with dogecoin... @ dogecoins peak i thought its nice to update the wallet... Lost Doges worth (at that time) 2BTC.

With BTC the biggest mistage i ever did was investing a little BTC in a scam site, page now offline DNS returning nothing ^^

2 years back, I bought btc @ $80 per coin. And sold at $225 per coin. Once I sold, It went up to $900+ with no stops. Missed to seal the huge profits.

Yeah that sounds really bad. I think you should talk with someone.
These things don't go away easily. 
Professional help is the solution for you my friend.

Don't think negative, atleast he have earned a good profit and that is the best thing, no need of crying and there are many people around here who are still suffering from losses, and the worst mistake I did was that I sent my first btc transfer to a wrong address as I was newbie and I was not totally aware about it so that was the mistake I still regret.

My worst mistake happened just now...

Putting so much trust in Cryptsy. I really though this big vern guy was to be trusted but no.
His office is empty and withdrawals are not honored anymore.

The worst mistake I made was buying a credit card off the dark web for .28 the card was suppose to have $2000 on it. Well after I sent the btc I never heard from them again. Later that week I used another name and they responded. Well you can figure the type of language I used!

I look at it as I payed .28 btc to never deal with anyone over the darknet and when skeptical use escrow. Scammers run when you say escrow!

It sounds like a stolen cards
why you thought about buying it from the beginning ?

and yeah, escrow is very important to avoid scammers but a new problem has appeared, what if the escrow is a scammer ?  Grin

gambling , obviously  Angry

yes Obviously gambling will be a mistake if your a newbie and still starting with bitcoin that will be a problem but I think if you have lots of stock bitcoin gambling will never be a problem anymore, you will try gambling only to play to just enjoy!

Transfered them to MtGox. The rest is history
I heard the news, people lose a lot of coins to Mt.Gox scam. Fortunately, I didn't use them when it happened. Grin
I'm sorry for your loss, but may I know how much did you lose to the Mt.Gox scam?

my worst mistake until now is trusting cloud mining sites specially scrypt.cc
I made a deposit there from some faucet earning and i lost access to the account after that

Many people did this. Therefore you see a lot of cloud mining sites popping up, even though it's impossible to make profit with cloud mining.
I hope the community can take a stand against them.
