Hey just a question. How would you know if a HYIP can be trusted. I see you got some experience with this kind of thing and I see a lot of people offering this kind of service. But havent tried. I am too careful not going at full blast risk.

Majority of them are ponzi and can't be trusted, you need to do a great level of research before investing anything in online sites.

Worst mistake I ever made is copy/pasting the wrong address (belonging to someone I traded with earlier) and sending some coins there that I originally wanted to send to a newly created cold wallet. Doh!

Trading with altcoins and loosing money, also not buying btc when it was lot cheaper.

It is really a bad strategy if you are not buying bitcoins when it is cheaper, you must take the opportunity and wait for the price fall of bitcoin before buying it and going into trading, because instead of earning , yeah you will just lose your money.
you know the chance will not come 2 times. so when you think it is a low price and a good buy. then you must buy them follow your heart and do calculations before buying.
and do not do mistakes as you did when trading altcoin keep it as a lesson dude

Panic selling at $230. Worst idea ever. Little did I know that not more than a week later the price would go up to $350. Well lucky me.

You sold it at that price and my mistake was not to buy at that price as I thought that it will not rise again in future, and it was a worst decision of my life.

I believe worst mistake most of us has ever done about bitcoin is not knowing it any earlier as mentioned above.

Not knowing about something earlier can't be a mistake. Knowing something and deciding against it might be a mistake though well, nobody that I know knows the future. So it can't be an error the same way that it can't be an error to know that the lottojackpot is high and you might win with the right numbers. It's not an error that you did not play the exact numbers when you know the winning numbers.

Please ALWAYS contact me through bitcointalk pm before sending someone coins.

A very large mistake, but this you can use as a lesson in the future so as not to get in the same event. And possibly also you will get a much larger BTC of BTC was missing. Keep trying and always hard work

Worst mistake i did with bitcoin is gambling and wasted so many bitcoins on dice sites. I hope i never gambling with bitcoin, just earn it and turn it into fiat.

Do gambling only with the money that you can afford to lose and do it for entertainmnet purpose only. But at least you are now know how to spend your bitcoin better. Mistakes makes us more carefully to do something..

Majority of them are ponzi and can't be trusted, you need to do a great level of research before investing anything in online sites.

Now a day, every HYIP is a ponzi, you better stay away from those if you don't wanna lose your hard earned money.

I had a strategy at that time with these HYIPs, joined only short term programs and under high ref back offering monitoring sites.

This strategy has worked well for me for some time, then I was greedy enough to put all my eggs in one basket thinking they'll atleast pay until a few days, until then I'll get my investment back, but I was wrong.

They're gone on day 2 (They gone because they got more investments than they actually thought they'd get, not just mine but all members) Grin

For any purpose we do betting we will loose money so if you really interested in gambling you can play gambling or else don't play because simply for your fun why you waste your bitcoin keep it in your wallet it will reach high price in few months so then you can sale that you will get some profit in bitcoin. I too loose some coins here but i am not remember how much i loss but still i am not able to quit this.

Never ever try to gamble if you cannot afford to lose it. You might end up losing all your money including your life savings. We should learn from the mistakes of our fellow gamblers here. Best thing to do earn it by working and invest for future goals.
mistake a lot of people are gambling with the amount that is too large? they are dreaming to get a big profit. so they dare to take the risk to gamble with big bets. when it ended in defeat so that you get is a very big loss

From my point of view, I think that most people lose in gambling because they do not have enough self-control. Once they lost a some of their Bitcoin, they started to place larger and larger bets. And end up with the same scenario you described.

This is my worst mistake of all mistake that I did I think...When I was updating my first ever bitcoin core wallet, it freezes in activating best chain, So I decided to uninstall my bitcoin core wallet and delete the whole file and start again..I mistakenly Ctrl+A and delete everything including my wallet.dat..I was still newbie that time, lucky that it only has .05 in that...

0.05 Bitcoin to someone like me is actually a lot. Anyway, have you checked your recycle bin the other time? Or look for method to recover the lost .dat file? Next time you got to be careful about when deleting some folders.

So sad! This profile does not appear as the #1 result (on anonymous) Google searches anymore.

Time to be active on the crypto forums again? Proud to be one of the few Legendary members of the Sparkie Red Dot!

Gonna put this on my resume if I ever join a cryptocurrency/blockchain industry!

Yeah even I try to gamble sometimes but never been lucky but now I gamble with very less amount so even if I loose it doesn't affect my wallet, but I am trying to stay away from it.

Yeah you need to be very careful and need to check twice before sending it to any address as we know that bitcoin transactions are irreversible so its difficult to recover your coins.

I deposited into Ponzi and HYIP schemes before this, and i believe this is worst mistake i did with Bitcoin, as i lost some amounts without real reasons. Gambling is also risky way and i take care nowadays before playing there.

I know some guys that had the same thing happen. HyIps seems to work cyclical. At one point in time no one will invest in any HYIP so they close doors very fast and it ends up in all the earnings going to waste. Then new victims get the idea that it somehow could be possible and they hyips work a bit longer again.

It is clearly not a good idea.

Please ALWAYS contact me through bitcointalk pm before sending someone coins.
