Only this year.
I needed to buy something in a country I did not reside & the only merchant selling it on the web
was one offering 10% discount with bitcoin so I bit the bullet & have been an enthusiast ever since

i'll guest in 2016, just before I joined it because I do not really know what your bitcoin. I'm still new,

Even if you are new to bitcoin but I think you are the best place to earn bitcoins, as no other forum will allow you to earn bitcoin in this way as I am part of it since last 2 years.

the story is quite impressive. That is indeed true, that most people use bitcoin on the advice of his closest people. It is indeed very easy to do and very effective. I hope you too can learn and reproduce the science of bitcoin, because in the future we will get a tremendous success.

I've been in the game also around 2 years 2.5 years. The price was around 500 then.
The reason I thougt bitcoin mining was good, was because of the mining. I bough several miners and placed them in a DC.

I started using bitcoin when I read an articles about bitcoin in BBC news website. the year was 2013.. first of all I just search about bitcoin and want to know what is this.
and then I get to know that there are some free ways to earn bitcoin and exchange them to fiat.
I use faucets to earn some money but I didn't got any success because of faucets low rates. after 6 months I quit earning bitcoin and start gaining knowledge about it. and till then I am still learning more and more about it.
and yes now I can earn also from bitcoin.

I just saw some post of stranger on facebook that about bitcoin and he is showing the actual balanceof his wallet and then I asked him how he got his coins and he endorse me to a group . That was the first time i've used bitcoin that was three months ago .

[JesusHadAegis]

I started it last year and i start because i want to waste my time here in bitcointalk and earn some bitcoin and convert in fiat money, but in my starting months there are many struggles that i passed, like scam group in facebook, hyip site. My friend invite me there and he said they double your money but it seems that in the end they scammed me

Such a horrible story my friend. Me I started using bitcoin when I read it in an article back in year 2010.
I didn't save any because that time I don't have any equipment and BTC was such a fancy name back then for a propaganda and it turns out to be a really good one to have. Many regrets, and many lessons we've learned so far.

It's really bad if your own refferal scammed but i guess its lesson learned. this was introduced to me by my friend oct. last year. he suggest it because i was doing nothing but games in the internet. I did not instantly like this because i find it boring to post many things in a creative way. I just focused my mind here last month after i saw him getting some money.

Local currencies changing to crypto seems to be difficult, but bitcoin will be widely used and accepted and people will prefer to use bitcoin more in compare to fiat currency.

I started using Bitcoins last year only but i came to know about it few years back. At that point of time i didn't care about its technology and potential the forget about it the next of hearing about it the first time. But now i am thankful that i started using it at last and have made quite a profit online.

[Seansky]

I just started using bitcoin these last february because I just heard it from a forum giving away tips and tricks for hacks etc. Well it was quite a fun journey. I tried faucet then gave it up the day after it, tried referring at doublers of course I got scammed and I got profited. Then after that I tried btc gambling from free faucet where I met some of my bitcoin buddies that helped me a lot. Well those buddies of mine is the reason why im here. Without them I wouldn't even know about this forum.

[jak3]

there was a time when my mom said to me that using inyernet is just a waste it will only waste my time and money but will not pay money in return so i searched the internet and after a lot of search i saw a interview at discovery channel about bitcoin and after that i know about this system

[bitcoin-hunter]

I started to use the bitcoin 2 years ago and it was for investing, I knew that it was profitable and a nice investment.
Due to that I invested in it and I'm still doing the same but right now also paying things with it.

[akogwapo14]

Im still new in bitcoin world and I need to know more but I'm here in bitcoin becouse  I believe in potential of bitcoin as new currency in world wide and also believe that the prise will go higher and higher because of many country already adopted it. in short I'm here to bitcoin to earn and save  for the future.

[stromma44]

I started my journey with bitcoin last year as I was not left with any other option to earn money, I was unemployed and was not having any source of income and bitcoin helped me in the best way.

[n691309]

I started using bitcoin more than 3 years and why i started is because it was a good opportunity earning online from faucets and other really small task like watching videos and pay per click sites, so these websites didn't required any verification but just an address and start.

[jerowacik]
