I heard about it in a newspaper article stating a guy by spending just $15 became a millionaire.
I was fascinated by reading the article and thought of using Bitcoin.

It was a fair day late november 2014.

Actually, for the last 3 years, i've surfed on most/lot of PTC websites and didn't even earned $1 Sad . One day i saw "bitcoins accepted" <- this on a PTC websites, it was quite new payment method i saw that time. So i started googl about bitcoin, then joined coinbase, then earned some dusts from faucets, then free LTC every hour from yobit.net (they stopped paying free LTC every hour). At last i came to know about bitcointalk.org and joined here. Then what? You know what will be happend Grin Grin

I came to know about Bitcoin from a guy who was buying drugs from silk road and I wondered that this can also happen.

When I first heard of it, it was described like an in-game currency which can be converted to cash, and someone have bought a house by selling 1000 BTC. The article was just in the funny news section of a newspaper.
Then I start finding more articles describing it more preciously months later, then I finally decided to join the bitcoin community. By joining here, I've learnt much more about bitcoin and just found out many local articles were misleading...

I saw an article in some magazine(I can't remember which) in late 2012 talking about the silk road. I installed TOR(for research purposes of course) so I could access the site. I remember looking at the prices and think how cheap everything was(this is because I thought the prices were in USD). After a little more research I found out what Bitcoin was, but decided it was way too difficult to get a hold of some just to buy some herb online...I sure do wish I had went through the hassle and bought some at 2012 prices, but you know hindsight is 20/20 and all.

Using a now extinct search engine how to make money online when I was a broke college student. I found a few places that I could make 20+ bitcoins a day solving captchas.  Cheesy   Still have the hard drive but can't remember the password I used... Someday... someday...

Are you a bitcoin fan?
Do you spend a lot of time on bitcoin? Reading news, trading, or even writing your own analysis.
But how did you first hear about bitcoin?
Is it some articles you read about? Or just from a friend who has traded bitcoin for a long time?

Share your experience with us. Grin

the first time i have heard about bitcoin was on a forum that i have read about it but later on one of my friends explained it to me in details
