Not be an early adopter. I heard about bitcoins around 2010. Too bad, I was 14, didn't understand anything.

same age dude , i also heard bitcoins before that time but just ignored it since i don't have any interest in such things, all i do that time is play dota 1(on Garena) and browse facebook Grin

The worst mistake I've done is I bought when Bitcoin was at 1200$ and sold at when it was 180$. Ok, that's 2 different mistakes actually. But the point is I'm very bad at trading Bitcoin. Cheesy
I stopped trading and use buy-hold strategy, since then I accumulated more coins in my stash.

1200 USD is the peak and 180 is the near bottom since the Bitcoin bubble. You buy and sold you Bitcoin at the worst time. Indeed, if this is true, you are very bad at trading Bitcoin. Holding bitcoin for long term and dont be scared by the value should be the best choice for you. I hope you will secure your stash as it sound like it is a lot.

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!

playing investing in hyip and I tried my first direct investment with a fairly large value, then they scam  Angry

That's the reason why hyip = gamble. Both are high risk and not sure what would come out.
Playing hyip same as you throw your money. You will think that you have a strategy to play hyip. But in the end you are too greedy to control yourself because the seductive profit.

I'm in 400,000 euros debt , dont help me , i rather die

Actually I made two common mistakes. In the first case I sent money to the wrong address, but the generous man sent them back. And the second was when I wrote wrong fee amount. So, people be careful really!!

Going onto one of those produce your random private key places online and using the key. All funds got transferred to another address as soon as the transaction got confirmed.

I saw many transaction that if you put low fee and the tx get not confirmed the funds are sent back to the sender, so don't worry Smiley wait always for 1 confirmation, to avoid any mistakes.

I couldn't have sold my bitcoins when the price was 1200$. Still... I did it when the price was 900$

I was cautious since the beginning so no big loss here.
