Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

we surely need a time machine. if you compare the 2btc payouts back then, to now being just 1000 satoshi's, it only shows how much more mature bitcoin has become.

I started using bitcoins in early 2015.
I came to know about Bitcoin in late 2013 when Bitcoin reached around $1200 and after reading about the $10 million pizza.

I came into Bitcoin to make some money while sitting at home and also feel that it is innovative enough to change the world. So now I'm holding Bitcoin to see how far it goes.

I invested in Bitcoins in last year and I searched on the google regarding the advantages attached with the bitcoins and I was convinced that I should hold some bitcoins which could be helpful to me in the future.

Hello everyone! Just like you, CoinTelegraph is interested in fostering the cryptocommunity to grow and prosper
and make every effort to ensure this becomes a reality. In order to make our support even more effective,
we'd like to find out as much as we can about the community members themselves.

It would be great if you could send us your story by answering the following question: “When and why did you start using Bitcoin?”

I started using bitcoin last year, and till this day I still use it. I use bitcoin for ease in online transaction, besides that I also make an investment, because if bitcoin price up then I will sell all my bitcoin. hehe

I learned about Bitcoin in November last year. I am very interested in what I can get free currency. Then I was unemployed and I need the money. And I'm going to faucets, and even gambling. Gradually I learned more and more about Bitcoins, and more and more it is kindled in me the interest of the entire system.

I've heard about bitcoin a couple of years ago, but I was not really interested in it during that time. I was more into stocks and I thought it would just be a flash in the pan thing. Fast forward to April 2016, I heard about bitcoin once again, and this time I got more curious. I then started to get my feet wet by buying a small fraction. From then on, I've been trying to get as much info about recent developments and events that might lead to another price surge.

same here i also joined in bitcoin 3 years ago I also feel that the rules and regulation in bitcoin very free. and I liked it
but the beginning I was in bitcoin because I think that bitcoin is a profitable investment. so I bought some bitcoin when I first joined

I started using bitcoin back in 2013 because I read an article about the qualities of bitcoin. The bitcoin price has also reached its peak back then, so I joined bitcoin purely for the fun of it.

I wish I had started earlier though and mined some coins... So I can be rich now Smiley

It was late 2013 when I first head about bitcoins but then i did not understand the potential that bitcoins had and hence I did not stored much. I wish I had bought some bitcoins then and ... anyways I heard it from a friend who asked me whether I know bitcoins or not.
