Bitcoin Forum

I just like to post my 1 year anniversary in Bitcointalk.org and share my experience after a year.

As far as I remember I first discovered Bitcoin because I did some online task in a website that is paying a very small amount of $ and I am earning a small amount of cents on it back then and one day they announced that they are thinking to pay the workers with Bitcoin if a large portion of us agrees to it as a payment in the future payouts and that is the day that I got curious in what is Bitcoin all about.

At first I am so innocent in what is this digital online currency is all about and I am shocked to its value back then, it was $635 per 1 Bitcoin when I saw it. And I searched it over and over again until I understand what it is and how to use it as a currency and guess what it was very hard to understand it because most of the terms that is being use is not familiar with my vocabulary like cryptocurrency, cryptography, Bitcoin address, Bitcoin wallet, etc.

I got so interested with Bitcoin since I knew it and until now I still have a lot to learn about it and every single day of my life is almost into it. The value of it now while I am typing this is $5,738.06 and it already break $6,100 price last week, Bitcoin is always make me interested day by day because of its price and the growth of it in just a short period of time as everything can really happens in an instant.

Feel free to share your Bitcoin experience here at my thread if you want.

I would surely write again a post just like this with my 2nd year anniversary next year  ;)

Congratulations! I can see that you are participating in a high-quality signature campaigns, so things have gone well for you as well as you have been writing good posts for this forum, otherwise you wouldn’t have been accepted.

I have only been two months in the forum, I had heard of bitcoin before but it seemed something strange for me and it was linked to the Mt. Gox scandal in my mind so I wasn’t paying much attention to it until last summer when I decided to do some research about it and ended up here.

At the end of December it will be my 2 year anniversary after i joined bitcointalk.org.
I remember the time when i joined, the bitcoin price was around 450 USD.This is insane growth for only
2 years.I regret  that i didn`t join the bitcoin community 3 or 4 years ago,i knew about bitcoin back then,but
i thought it was something shady and too complicated to understand with all the minning pools,blockchain and geeky stuff.

Bitcoin always keeps me interested day by day because if the price and its growth is only in a short time it can really happen in a moment, because I now know it and until now I still have a lot to learn about it and every day of my life almost get there, the current value as I typed this is $ 5,737.05 and has already broken the $ 6,200 price last week,

It was amazing to make me even more diligent to find Bitcoin.

I think it's one of the regrets that we have. Hoping that we have known this community earlier. But evererything has a perfect timing. Still I am thankful that I have joined this community and I am already earning for living. It was really hard at first and I was quite lazy to join. But as soon as I engaged here, it is now continuous. I'm very inspired to work cause I have goals.

It is been almost fourth year since my joining to bitcointalk.org forum, i don't know what the price was exactly at that time but  i remember i was quite strange to cryptocurrency world before joining here but this forum helped me a lot to bring the necessary information and awareness.
Bitcoin is the valueable topic in my life and i hope this forum will remain subsist over decades to help us further.

I Also Want To Understand Bitcoin More And More and Be knowledgeable in it's Inside and Out.

I am A Member And I am Willing To Learn.
Therefore, This OP Will Serves as A Motivation  and Counts as An Appreciation of what Bitcoin Does To Us.
Three Months of Being  A Part of This Forum And Still Counting.

I have been following bitcoin for years but only had money recently to invest. Never really cared about making an account on this forum. I already made over 100% in the last few months with Bitcoin, and I'm bullish long term (Yes I am one of those that think Fiat is really going to be some shit currency that exists alongside Bitcoin/crypto)

I think we're going to come back to this post in a few years and laugh that the price was only $6k right now.

I've been in a bitcoin world since 2015 january so it will be my 2 years but in forum it will be 8 months in november and like you i'm still amaze on how bitcoin value increase since I started earning bitcoin. also want to learn more on how to earn more bitcoin because thru this I can help my family financially.

interesting post, i wish i did that all these years. i could have had 3 topics and the first one would have had a nice twist in it because when i started using bitcoin back in 2014 price was about $500 and my 1 year anniversary would have been nearly by the time price fell down to $200 and by that time i was on a buying frenzy disregarding everything that everyone such as Kuwakduck said about bitcoin dying. and each year ever since i am seeing the price go up at least 2x the previous value and i have not yet stopped buying.

The thing is you need to look at a full history chart of the price of Bitcoin to really understand what is going on. If you only look at the past 2 months then you will only see what looks like a good investment opportunity, but in reality when you zoom out to an all-time price graph you will notice we are in an exponential bubble, which means the price is actually bound to crash at some point in the near future.

That's true, I've also known bitcoin since last year, and I am also earning small bitcoin but I am really grateful to earn small amount that time. But I also regret the time that I sell it immediately and never thought that bitcoin price will reach until over $6000 which is, if only I save some of those cents, maybe I earn a lot of bitcoin right now. Well, those are already done and make some bitcoin today! I think it is still not late.

I was also getting near to my first year anniversary on this forum too, This is my greatest achievement so far this year since joining this forum I have learn so much about cryptocurrencies world in this forum and  I had the opportunity of earning as well, in fact I had been a regular and daily visitor in this forum I am always eager to read latest news about ICOs daily here.

Congratulations for your first birthday in this forum. It such interesting story that can make newbi like more and more keep spirit to know about bitcoin.
Actually i know bitcoin much much earlier then i joined this forum. I dont understand with bitcoin at first, and so regret why i could not found this forum earlier so i can learn all about bitcoin and altcoin easier than i thought.

Congratulations. I am unfortunately not yet so long. I'm going to take you to my brother-in-law. I am very grateful to him. I do not know about BTC :(

First of all, happy 1 year anniversary as a Bitcointalk's member. I must say that the bitcoin's journey is a fascinating trip - all you need to do is fasten your seatbelt and have a pleasure yet thrilling ride with it :D

What a journey man!!!. Truly bitcoin has been a blessing for almost all of us and glad that we have found it one thing or another. We may have different ways to how we managed to find bitcoin, but once we did, we never even bother to lose our site on it. I'm been on a roller coaster ride with bitcoin as well, however, I just decided to stick to it more than ever because I see a lot of potential and I have tried to maximized every opportunity to earn because the future of bitcoin is looking great and bright. I'm sure that when you 2nd anniversary arrived, bitcoin price is already doubled or even tripled. Lets all enjoy this ride and I'm sure everyone will have a long and lasting experienced.

Amazing journey. I got in at $2,200 before the hardfork for bitcoin cash. I had known about bitcoin in previous years, but dismissed it as a Ponzi. However, its use will increase over the years. I hope we all benefit greatly from the bitcoin price in the future. If only I had got in at $600. Argghhh. Oh well. I'm still up a lot. Lol.

I'm sure many holders regret not buying at this time last year. I certainly do. I started collecting using faucets but now do trading and lending on Bitfinex. I do buy using spare fiat as I believe bitcoin will continue to rise but I do not believe the rate of increase will be as high.

You are very kind to share your opinion here on this forum that can make new hope for everybody specially for newbie.
I would say congratulation to you for birthday. Hope best thing for you.

Nice to read stories like this, it’s what having a bitcoin community here is all about.
OP, you have seen some rise in the price, I hope you invested some savings in bitcoin in the last year to take advantage of this massive price increase.

Quite a miracle isn't it? Looking up at the price a year ago and now makes it look like some kind of company share that just made 1000% profit which is a huge feat considering the current market scenarios. Trust me I had no idea of the potential when I joined the forum around 4 years back but then I slowly started to realise how much of an impact Bitcoin has had over the years.

Really man !!that an amazing journey with bitcoin, for sure you already experienced those ups and down in bitcoin  happend during that time. The price growth of bitcoin has a very huge difference compared the bitcoin price last year. I would like to cingratulate you for your patience and I would love to read your 2nd year anniversary post. Keep it up man !

This are the users that make Bitcointalk continue to grow and give news abot how they have been doing since they started around! I think bitcointalk should create a subforum stating how the users are performing in Bitcointalk, how users are earning their BTC, stories that make newcomers also believe that they might not be late in BTC, and that this would help them gain financial sustainability.
Congrats for your 1st year, and hope to see you around in the coming years.

Dear OP, it was your luck however from me I thought something Bitcoin and it is not useful for me, then left the forum for a year. In the last month Ive heard in other forums that people are making good amount form Signature campaigns, however I was in all debts and now am clearing everything.

I think you are making decent amount from Signature campaigns and other methods as me too and looking to change my life in next few months.

If I took curiosity about the first level, then I would be creating a lot of money from Bitcoin and other resources.

great foresight! I started when BTC was at $3800. should have listen to friends advises and started earlier!

Hello, If this is your first anniversary, then this is my bitcoin birth(day). My first day registered here, my first post, if the price of bitcoin has increased ten times in the past year, do you think it will increase at that rate going into the future? I am going to bookmark this post and check back here in exactly 1 year to see how things work out. Wish me luck.

People all over thinking the same imagine being one of the first adopters and actually owning a good amount of coins only to delete them or lose them. I regret not investing when I first started and it was at $1200 then

I have joined Bitcointalk earlier than you (1 year and few months) and I witnessed the Bitcoin price dropping to as low as ~$200, people panicking, selling their coins, like it is the end of the world :P
But now look to the price, it is approximately 30x what it used to be  ;)


60x for sure  :)

I also congrats him  8)
Its very happy news. He must post her next anniversary. Everybody must share their knowledge here. This is the platform of sharing bitcoin news.

I thought your story is about a man who became millionaire in just a year with bitcoin don't you hold any bitcoin back then?any way its really amazing how the value of bitcoin grows in just few months it doubled its price and still moving upward. I just join few months ago and I am proud and contented with the earnings I get in bitcoin I just after a year I can share something very inspiring here like you do.

This is just another proof how you can't never know exactly with Bitcoin and make exact predictions, it can always surprise us. And also it shows us that Bitcoin is still still the best long term investment. Who can tell now what the price will be in one year from now but I'm sure we will all profit.

I want to congratulate you, bitcointalk does give us a lot of knowledge. Regarding the price, I am very surprised when you say that price of the former bitcoin still in the range of $ 600 and now we can see bitcoin prices reach $ 6000.
Next year will be a fun year. :)

Congratulations! i will wait your 2nd year here in forum and see that bitcoin price is already 60000 $ per bitcoin
600 $ - 6000 $ - 6000 $ wow what a jump!
when i started here its already around 2k $ i think if i still remember.

Congratulations on the 1 year man :D ! It is very amazing how fast Bitcoin has grown and how fast the general public have become aware of it. I predict 2018 will be quite an amazing year for anyone invested in Bitcoin and it's technology.

Thanks for sharing. It was a very interesting story. Waiting for 2year's story

I am also Kind of Emotionally attached to Bitcoin
