I was first attracted to Bitcoins because it is an exciting, historic 'libertarian' revolution.
Have Bitcoins helped to improve your life?
How/why?

It really turned me into a saver.
My wife and I both work and no kids so we have money to spend and we love spending it. When I buy bitcoin I get the satisfaction of spending but I'm saving at the same time. I would have just spent the money somewhere else, so if it goes to zero then oh well.

Personally for me is yes. Im student of university, in my country if you want to have good work for your finance you must have a title of degree and its not short time and the cost is not cheap. Then i found bitcoin and online freelance which i can earn some money from there. Its useful for pay my university cost.

It made me a lot more independent. Only being a high school student, it's made me less dependent on my parents. It's not only Bitcoin but I'm talking about the Internet as well. It secured my future. As for the bitcoins, it made me realize what solutions can be done/created to combat high fees and tax. Since it's open source and fairly easy to use, I find everybody that I know will find it hopefully easy to use. Since some of my friends are using it, it cuts me the work of going out to the store and buying them something  I'm very lazy. Giving them a Bitcoin is giving them a piece of digital gold. |

I still BTC as a nice hobby. Yes, I would like it to become something more then that but ATM I cannot say it actually changed or improved my life.
I did pay for a vacation using BTC which I made from smart investments. BTC was transferred into fiat.

The learning aspect is great. Getting better with the command prompt trying to install headless altcoins wallets etc. Not to mention trading. It just gives you a broader knowledge and that's always a good thing

Yes, they have actually inspired me to learn math on my own time (in university I got through classes not knowing ****), and have inspired me to pursue technology and become an inventor. Even if I fail, I know I want to do some thing novel and original with my life.

Bitcoin is simply awesome, there is no doubt about it. I learned so much about is and I still feel like I really don't know anything. When I heard about it first time I began to wonder how much we can improve with proper use of it. Now I see that possibilities are endless, the only limit is human creativity and ill will of governments and politicians.

My life could've improved a lot because of bitcoin, if I just had sold them at $1000, instead of investing all my coins in scammy companies and lose every single coin.  |

Since then I've been broke That is a shame but at least you have had a good time in the process and surly have some awesome memories, i am yet to really benefit financially from bitcoin but i have learnt a lot and maybe i will be able to that into financial gain in future. The way to keep your money safe from all sorts of people and be your own bank is more than the financial gain at the moment anyway and who knows what the future holds. |

Unfortunately I was joking buddy but thank you for your kind words. I got into bitcoin to late same as most people. I started of broke and still am. Wish I'd been one of the lucky ones  . |

I was personally quite motivated by bitcoin to assemble many new skills that i would have never got if bitcoin didnt cross my path.
I gained some coding, hardware, development skills that im proud of, and i extended range of useful connections that i would never usually have.
The financial part is quite promissing also, but in the end, even without money i would get involved in crypto space anytime.
cheers

Yes, I have learned quite a few things that I never would have run across without being around here. |

Right now it hasn't change anything but at least it has given me hope that one day the bitcoin will be currency for our daily use. I find that trading is a very exciting activity and mainly what i like the most is collecting every coin that i can afford

Yeah i was lucky and did sell at $1000. I'd been doing jobs for bitcoins so the whole intention was to sell them straight on. Just happened that the majority I sold were at the top end in price. |
