In 2011: I was at, or close to, 10.
In 2015: About 7 ... (It's a marathon, and we don;t need to get too crazy)
On a scale of 1 to 10, How Excited (!!) Are You About BTC and the Bitcoin Project?

I wouldn't really say that I'm excited at all. I would rather say that it interests me a lot.
Bitcoin is something very catchy thing for me. There is just so much potential around it and I probably think way too much than I'm willing to admit. Sometimes even mental fatigue occurs, however I do not complain.
I would very much want Bitcoin to be everywhere in X(X) years.

I knew the forums in 2013 from currency exchange section because I was looking to buy Paysafecard , but I started using Bitcoin till last year on July or something . and I still see that Bitcoin project is so excited so I will give it a 10  I don't think too much on Bitcoin when I have school or stuff like that , but my exams will finish tomorow and I will be in long long so long holidays so Bitcoin will be taking 90% of my head |

I think 50% of Bitcoin. But I always tell friends about it. Some interesting to listen to. But some friends disclaims Bitcoins. They say that they have paypal, credit cards, and they do not want to change.

I'm not particularly excited at the moment because I've invested so much & at the moment not showing much of a profit. I HODL everything so I haven't lost anything as I haven't sold anything.
I'm more anxious in the hope that bitcoin will become as huge as it's designed to be & gain mainstream adoption.
If bitcoin reaches its potential I'd tell you that I could be a 10 for excitement but because at the moment I'm anxious I'll say 7.

Similar to a reply or two above:
Now: interested/excited about a 6
Year ago: 8
Progress has not happened as quickly as I would have hoped. There are still NO BTC ATMs in my city for example.
An increasing price would help drive interest in BTC, but at this point a stable price is OK with me.

probably about an 8 right now. This technology interests me greatly, and I would like to see it gain mass adoption. I love the concept, and think that this decentralization can be utilized in so many different ways, as many Bitcoin startups are doing now.

I find it funny that people say progress isn't happening fast enough. Things are happening way faster today than they were a year ago. More money is being invested in bitcoin companies, more people are thinking about investing, etc. We even have publicly traded shares (GBTC). I'm even more excited today than I was when I first learned about bitcoin because I can see where things are going. Every day it becomes more clear to me that bitcoin isn't going away. And if it does, it'll be replaced by another coin, which I will happily join. Because at the end of the day, blockchain technology works.

Im pretty excited, the good news and interesting projects and personalities keep popping up to support it, even if it doesn't translate into the price just yet. I don't care because there is always lag between this and the price when we are talking brand new tech.

I would say 7. There is a lot of potential for Bitcoin and I am hoping it goes mainstream. I think the blockchain technology is great, and that it will be something that can change the world.

Definitely a 8, or maybe 9. Really excited about what's next for Bitcoin, especially with the latest talk about block size...

1 (since it's the lowest) in 2011-2013. I learned about bitcoin somewhere between 2011-2012 but never actually got into it. and I ended up forgetting about it. 10 in mid 2013 to early 2014. what can I say, I just learned about bitcoin again and saw the price went up like nuts. 4 after ^ to mid 2014. I was into altcoin then. 6 after ^ to present. addicted to bitcoin. but I can't stay excited forever else I'll have a heart attack  and I think about Bitcoin very frequently. maybe a little too frequent |

Good point JayCoDon, it can seem "slow" since the prices are so stable, but the fundamentals are growing at an exciting pace. |

In the present, I would say about a 6, because of the stagnant price, but for long term, 10. I believe in 500.000 to 1 million per coin in a decade or two when Bitcoin takes over the world, and im not alone in this, the founder of Xapo sees this scenario too. All or nothing, that's how I see it, and if you choose all, you better aim high.

10, because it could potentially give me financial freedom.
0 in terms of wanting to use bitcoin myself; I see its usefulness but I don't personally need it. I don't do remittances or make contracts or foreign exchange all that much.

Bitcoin, by its very nature, is here to stay. we can adopt it into the mainstream and build tooling around it Bitcoin is decentralized ! It only requires software and network connections.
