First heard of it when it was around $7/Btc... First bought in not so long ago, at $300.

the first time I heard about bitcoin was by the first of 2015, but I didn't care about it. I started interesting in bitcoin by the end of 2015 because I needed money  but I ever got bitcoin before that, just wanted to know what my friend said was not a lie.

I got my first bitcoin in 2015 by clicking faucets, all I got only a few satoshis.

You bought bitcoins when it was priced at $300? That's not too long ago? I don't believe so. That's like over a year ago. That I believe is already long ago, since the price of bitcoin has more than doubled since you bought your first bitcoin. That must have been quite a profit, eh?

Yeah and I bought when the price was $250 in April 2015 and the current price is $775, so I am in the stage of huge profits and I can afford to sell even at this price.

For me it was also 2015 when I heard about bitcoin. The next step was going to this forum and absorb as much information as possible. When I knew enough I started with altcoins but after a long time i revert back to bitcoin. Bitcoin is the deal...

I got into bitcoin just last 8 months ago because i'm too curious of what is bitcoin because i just encountered that word on a group that discussing about deep web. So, i start watching videos on youtube (because im too lazy to read many articles) and i start earning small amount on faucets (because a lot of people telling me that faucets is a best way to earn bitcoins) but after 1 month i see the result that faucet is not worth it so i just invest my money to buy bitcoin and put it on a cloud mining site so now i have a passive income .

For me, it was sometime in Fall 2012. I was looking for a new place to play poker because of Poker Black Friday (April 15, 2011). I found seals with clubs poker which accepted US players and had instant deposits/withdrawals, but used something called "bitcoin." At that stage I didn't really care anything about all the great and awesome things about bitcoin, only that it would allow me to play online poker with instant deposits and withdrawals.

I bought my first bitcoins through BitInstant. It was kind of shady, but awesome at the same time. You would go to their website, give them your bitcoin receiving address and tell them how much bitcoin you wanted to buy. At the time btc was around $10 - $14 US. Then you would go to a store with Moneygram, get on the red phone and tell them that you were sending XXX amount of cash to a company called ZipZap, then they would put the info in and then you went to the store's cashier and paid cash and get a confirmation receipt. And by the time you got back in your car you would get a text message from BitInstant saying that your bitcoins were sent to you wallet.

I heard of bitcoin back in 2013 and probably first bought my coins around 2 years later. Wasn't that much, just $10 worth but the deal went through smoothly via localbitcoins. Awesome experience.

If anyone is planning on getting some BTC, go ahead
