Post by: Mageant on June 08, 2011, 09:06:51 PM

14c, got nervous and sold at 26c. (I you wouldnt believe how happy I was at the time, I made $50!)

Bought back in at 76c and $1.76 a few days later. (And i'm holding on for grim life, although the last 12 hours shake the old confidence.)

Oh, about $23.

A few days later I managed to score some at $30. Ho hum.

And recently a couple at $17.

But I assume I won't have lost anything in the long run. <crosses fingers>

87 cents - mining.  still got 'em all...

i'm waiting for the client to confer the ability to spend/transact specific coin, and verify that, for tax purposes.  my most recently mined coins are the ones i'd prefer to spend first, as they have been the most expensive.

$15...I literally am self-loathing for not finding out about Bitcoins earlier.

My first coins? 80c... and that was actually after they had reached the $1 mark.

But I've also bought some for as much as $27 each.

Same (on both points).  I'm usually on top of things that are "underground", etc.  Well I get that bitcoins aren't underground, but you know what I mean.
 
I found out about them when they were $15, and started mining.  I then burnt some of my PayPal "free" money and bought in at 18.  When it hit 30 I thought it was "too good to be true" and sold off most (only 13).  Now I'm back up to 9.  *sigh*
 
I see people with hundreds of thousands and it makes me sick to my stomach that I missed a year ago. :( 
 
I could be sitting on a small fortune (minus whatever I used to pay off my mortgage and boat payments).
 
*sigh*

I remember buying around 250 bitcoins for 5 euro with an sms... But of those five euros, two was used as a fee for the sms provider.

Sold them when bitcoin reached dollar parity as I needed to have money on paypal. Later I bought bitcoins at prices varying between 14$ and 24$ per.

My first coins were generated. It took less than $0.001 in electricity to generate them.
