Bitcoin Forum

Bitcoin has changed many people's life.. Many people become rich with Bitcoin.. So how was your life for this 10 years with Bitcoin?

This is a relative opinion that bitcoin has changed the lives of many people, I think only a few were able to really make crazy money. For example, I entered the market in 2017 and while I was learning from my mistakes I earned some money, but I believe that all the most interesting things are yet to come. How will your life change after you enter the cryptocurrency market ?)

Bitcoin is not a tool to improve life. This is a means of payment! Remember this!

Many have lost money and many have earned, but these are manipulations of the market’s whales and not bitcoin problems.

I’m not rich yet but bitcoin changed my whole life, it save me from falling into big debts and allow me to have income by just doing a simple job. My first year with bitcoin is so nice, and for the first time I was able to save money for my future. Bitcoin will continue to bless us, only if we continue to support it so don’t give up with bitcoin and just continue to invest and our future will be great.

It's not a means for payment either. If it was we'd see a growth in retailers/stores accepting bitcoin as payment. If that growth is happening in your part of the world, congratulations. But it's not happening in most parts of the world. The only transactions we see are between people who are already investors in bitcoin.

Bitcoin is an investment...that's how the market is treating it and it's the market that will determine the future utility.

As for improving lives, Bitcoin can absolutely be that and will be for as long as we live in a society that requires a currency to acquire goods and services. Any investment is a tool to improve one's life because it makes it easier for one to live their life in the future, if the investment grows positively.

The only difference bitcoin has made to my life is that it has offered
me a means to take control of a portion of my finances. It has
offered me an alternative to traditional banking, saving and investing.

Well, I'm not from the beginning with bitcoin just for a year or two only and I can't say it changed my life a lot. I just understood that being greedy is bad. I had some mBTCs which worded like 2k$ on the pick of the bull run, but I only thought that maybe it's not the end and the price will continue to raise and my 2k$ will eventually turn to 4 or 6. But as we all know bitcoin fell and now I am at the same stage from which I begun. I'm still here, with bitcoin and I truly believe that pationtly waiting and time will bring me all I dream about  ;D

It is true bitcoin has changed the lives of many people in a positive way but all that money did not appeared out of nowhere, it came from the pockets of other investors which saw their life changing but not for the better, I am not trying to scare people I am just stating the facts, so while it is important to see the positive aspects of investing in bitcoin you cannot forget that someone needs to lose and if you do not make an effort to improve yourself you could be the one that losses all.

Well for me it did not really change people's lives though they made a lot of investors rich. It is confusing when I said that but it is a lot funnier when I explain it. Most of the Bitcoin investors don't really use their Bitcoins in their lives, instead they just hold it, do you get it now? Then they use these Bitcoin to invest in other projects making more profit but as I've said, they are not really using it since they are thinking that it will pump more.

one thing i can tell about life changing adopting in bitcoin in my life, i am not rich at this time i am rich knowledge and understand about bitcoin how it work a s  volatile currency but hoping i get the dream someday to become a rich in the help of bitcoin, knowing at this time bitcoin has a lot of problem faces but i still believe they give another chance to people deserving to get huge profits.

Honestly I don't get rich with bitcoin, but with bitcoin I can increase my income well to meet all my needs in real life. With so many good and good benefits of bitcoin, so in my opinion bitcoin will not end even though the price keeps fluctuating or even continues to fall. By having a steady increase in income that I get from crypto, it can be said that my life will be better if compared to before I entered Bitcoin, I think you also have a taste that is not much different.

Personally my involvement in bitcoin had inculcate more knowledge in me aside some rewards earned via engaging in one thing or the order, although I am not that much rich financially but I had gained a lot of knowledge in blockchain technology and smart contract which is a plus to my programming career.

Approximately 3 years I know Bitcoin and the result I feel satisfied with what I earn from Bitcoin. With Bitcoin, my life is getting better, some needs can be fulfilled. I like to get money from Bitcoin and my office work.

10years to this time cryptocurrency would have gain a strong foundation and accepted everywhere in the world ,if I will be holding any coin that long it will always be bitcoin

I was very disappointed because I had just known Bitcoin one year ago.
But, even though I only knew Bitcoin one year ago, I feel the changes that are in my life. My economy is helped by bitcoin.
Yeah. . I'm grateful to know Bitcoin.
Thanks bitcoin. Thanks Satoshi Nakamoto. I love you all !!!

bitcoin has been around for 10 years, but I started bitcoin since 2014, it's true, bitcoin can be used as a source of income for those who can trade and also provide services in this forum, but this life feels normal if I continue to do things this, namely trading. therefore, I really want to stay with bitcoin and other cryptocurrency so that its existence is replaced
although some people feel successful over the existence of bitcoin, but not a few people who fail in the bitcoin game, hopefully their enthusiasm that cannot get money from bitcoin remains and always excited

Those who got Bitcoins in the last couple of years is really fortunate because of the skyrocket of the price but for those who bought bitcoin in the higher price and still holding until now like me is not really good.

Bitcoin has indeed changed a person's life and mindset, I regret that only a year ago I learned about bitcoin. Bitcoin has made my knowledge richer and changed my mindset about the future. Bitcoin has had a positive impact on me and I will continue to learn about the crypto market.

After 10 years of bitcoin we have know how growing up of bitcoin price, but some time bitcoin could be on lower price, we have take more lesson when have to sell and hold bitcoin,

Bitcoin is 10 years old and it should be twisted by various kinds of bitcoin and this can always survive. I knew bitcoin not long ago but gave me a broad insight. Internet technology has a positive impact on those of us who are involved in crypto and have a good income for those who already have policies in playing the market and trading.

I can truely say that bitcoin totally change my life especially in my financial. Bitcoin serve as my alternative income and then if the price of bitcoin will increase this year I can earn more money. I hope bitcoin will exist for many years so I can turn my simple life to better life.

At least with the existence of bitcoin I can have an expectation, I can invest or trade if I feel able to make a profit. And till now, I can get additional income per week by trading and increasing my income besides working in the real world. Honestly, I am a new person who only knows bitcoin a year ago so as I have not gained wealth, maybe for some people in this forum there have been many who have gained wealth.

I can say mine is getting better. I quit my job to be a full time Crypto trader/bounty hunter and do some work with ICO's. I didn't regret quitting my full time job coz i earn 4x of my salary on my previous company so everything is well with crypto!

I haven't been with Bitcoin for 10 years, but Bitcoin gave me another view with a different job. Bitcoin provides great opportunities for the future and this can be used wisely. Crypto's trading products also have good results so they are able to meet my needs.

Transactions are way easier :)  8)

It was definitely a Life changing experience, because I started to look at "centralized" money in a different way. I was one of those sheep who just followed the status quo and I never questioned anything that was seen as standard practice. Money to me was just a tool to accomplish a goal and I never even thought about it.

When I saw Bitcoin for the first time, a lightbulb went on and I saw financial freedom and financial privacy in a new light and that was the life changing moment for me.  ;)

This is really inspiring story as even inspite of the bad year in 2018 you had managed to make money and better than too your normal salary which you were drawing from the previous company means you are on the right track. If the bull run continues you would really be making it big time money.

Firstly, the number of people who believed in Bitcoin was very few until a few years ago. Maybe we just chose to believe this forum and very few people from the outside.

Despite this, there has been very rapid progress over the years. At the end of this decade, it was up to 20,000 times the USD as a currency. Yes, he lost value, but he won a huge community support behind him. Thousands of platforms based on Bitcoin were installed. Moreover, Bitcoin did not only develop itself. It also inspired more than a thousand projects based on Blockchain.

I am only newbie in bitcoin but in this 2 years bitcoin change my life my economy my  financial it become more better now and all the needs of my kids I provided now . I am so thankful to part of crypto family. Bitcoin is my extra job but it is give me big income and also my knowledge about in cryptocurrency are increasing too.

I had been here in this industry for almost 3 years and with that period of time, it changed me a lot, honestly speaking.
especially in terms of Financials, business which I invested through this things, then having a savings for the future as well. But predicting my life 10 years from I cannot answer that correctly, just all I know as long as there are community who continue believe and holding on it for sure for what I have now in my life for sure it grow more in the future.

we believe my life with me works online with Bitcoin, in the next 10 years I think my life is better than before, because I also believe, bitcoin can really change someone's life if you do it in a good way

Maybe I am a person who is late to get to know bitcoin. First I got to know bitcoin in 2016 and started entering it in 2017. Even so I believe that bitcoin will have a good future and can change one's economy.

My life have drastically improved not because of the ten years existence of bitcoin but because of my 1+ years of being a member of bitcointalk . many thanks to this forum because it helped me alot to earn some bucks even on my spare time  but i do also give credits to bitcoin and other cryptos because if not them , for sure bitcointalk wont also become possible    .  

Cryptos did also help me to make my life easier because i can use it to buy or pay for the service that i like  without the hassel of going outside just to cash in or use fiats  .

for now I am only about 3 years old and know about bitcoin and live on the benefits I get from bitcoin, but if you have experience with bitcoin for more than 10 years then it looks like you can get a lot of profits from 2017. because of the price of bitcoin at the time 10 years ago, the price of bitcoin is still cheap and few know about bitcoin.

Yes, I am also very grateful for this Bitcointalk Forum, because by knowing this Forum, I can make money without working for other people out there, there are no bosses here, but we ourselves are Bosses, I am very happy after getting to know Bitcoin.  :)

My life has been changed a lot since I know bitcoin and this forum. Even though I am not rich with it, but I can get extra income from it which give a help for my financial. I wish this good thing will last longer hence more and more people could benefit from it.

I am sure you won't be getting the opinions of people who have actually been around for 10 years. The reason being, in their own words "I am pretty confident they are the new wealthy elite" (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=12156.0). (Sadly, the link to article quoted in that post no longer works).

What i can share is my own experience with getting to know bitcoin. Post 2010 and the internet boom, it wasn't new to keep hearing about exciting new technologies and softwares. Yet, all of it was pretty distant and kindda hard to approach. I too had fallen into the rut of the ordinary life. Getting to know about bitcoin around mid 2017 has been exciting from an intellectual stimulation and technological interest point of view. It is fun trying to get to the basics of the mathematics, cryptography and programming.

Along with it, some of the other ideas around blockchain and decentralization have been interesting too. Decentralized computing and Games trying to use blockchain are some of the other things I have found interesting.

On the forum, I was earlier excited abut the BTC earning opportunities but realized a few months back that I did not have enough meaningful shit to that'd fill almost 4-5 posts per day. The dilemma of taking part in a campaign and just reading was solved when the campaigns dried up. On some side exploration, I saw that the betting and gambling market is pretty big with bitcoin and found a Sig campaign for that. Apart from that, I have setup a small 4-GPU rig and am trying to divert enough funds to try BTC mining someday. It has been eye opening to see how difficult it is to get hands on hardware in my country while trying to avoid so many scammers who are out to fool people.

So yeah, It has been an interesting part of life as a hobby and intellectual stimulant..

Nope, I only suffered losses in the first year investing in Bitcoin. However, I always hope that bitcoin will recover recovered till now I have never sold my investment. I bought bitcoin when at ATH prices as well as some altcoins, but when prices dropped I had never decided to sell, I don't know why I am so sure that crypto currencies will recover.

Not 10 years with bitcoin but it was around under 3-5 years and all I can say that it was the best thing that ever discovered. It's a shared wealth of the world and lucky were those early adopters who bought it during those cheaper days. I said even more that I'm late when I got in but I was wrong. Luckily, I also got a great experience with bitcoin although it may not be big like those whales / millionaires that were sharing their experiences but it really changed my life including my finances.

With my 3 years of using and investing bitcoin, it has already change my life.

1. I lost my job. (No, kidding) I quit my job rather because I have enough savings to start trading and I was right.
2. I build my dream house, bought a car, and enjoy some fancy trips with my family.
3. I'm the boss of my own.

Those things mentioned above is just a dream before, bitcoin help me fulfill that, so no matter what will happen, I'll stick with bitcoin and HODL.

Happy 10 years anniversary Bitcoin! I have heard about bitcoin since 2010 but not gotten into it because I was ignorant about the future of bitcoin I also got some bitcoin in my yahoo account but ignored it. I started to get into bitcoin at the second quarter of 2016 when bitcoin is hyped and many are already into in even made my first wallet to store fractions of bitcoin. I made some bad investment at the start but recovered when I did my own research and learn the legit way of bitcoin. In 2018 I gained some profit from airdrops until the bear market hit into me that I have should sold my tokens and coins when bitcoin was above 10 k but anyway it is another lesson for me till the next bull market.

Nothing better Colleague :o. I invested hugely in a cryptocurrency project in January, 2018. Now the project was successful but the price of the coin on the market has dropped to mud. Its rather unfortunate.

Although I am not an early adopter of bitcoin, I enthusiasm with bitcoin, and especially I can get some money from the crypto. It means a lot for my family and me, and I am willing to do more to earn more money. But I am not already rich, and I think I have the money to buy something and fill my family needs. And since the beginning I know bitcoin, I am sure I can have a way to get something benefits from crypto, and now I prove to myself and my family, and the most important is I still want to get involved in the crypto.

10 years with bitcoin depends on how we invest, because many things change lives, but not everyday life but give money and income every day for the future so that it will be better ... indeed Bitcoin will have a positive impact on us ..

I appreciate the freedom Bitcoin and I take BTC as a blessing of Technology.
