At first I'm was not interested in bitcoin. Though there are many times I heard about it, but still I don't see myself doing it. But there was a time that a friend of mine introduced bitcoin to me, not actually introduced but told me how bitcoin changed his life. From that very moment my interest n bitcoin boosted. There's eagerness in me of learning how to start bitcoin.

The testimony of my friends has given me so much desire to learn and understand what bitcoin is. But ofcourse, its not an easy start for me just like what my friend told me. I have to read and read more article regarding it in order to familiarize myself with bitcoin. It was quite amazing how bitcoin change my life. From an easy go lucky person to a more dedicated person. That feeling when you don't want to waste a single moment of your life to nonsense things.

I first found out about bitcoin in 2012 when a family member mentioned he was experimenting with cryptocurrency.

Since then I’ve been following bitcoin and some of the more modern digital currencies like Litecoin, Goldcoin, and Ethereum.

I learned about Bitcoin through my classmate. Whenever I see him in the classroom, he's always using his laptop reading and I got curious as to what he is doing. He then told me about Bitcoin, how it changed his life, that he now earns money for his family even though he's still a student. It got me interested and envious because he's earning money online! I mean how could you possibly earn a fair amount of money online. That's when I got started researching about bitcoin on how it works so that I too can earn online.

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
I just heard it only to someone who conversed about bitcoin then its been input into my mind, until one time while in front of my laptop I remembered the world Bitcoin then I typed it on google to find out what it is, then I read it then asking myself is this real? it gave me attention to learn it more after 1 week reading about it, then I joined in the bitcointalk.org and that's it! up to now here I am.

That is alright because most of us already do that kind of decision and they all regret it. I also get interested in bitcoin and because of the low price of bitcoin and even the faucets giving good profits, I still lose interests because of low rate per dollar of bitcoin and then i just got back here last year because i get attracted again by the price.

The first time I heard about bitcoin was through my friend. She showed us her earnings through her faucet claims and a couple of our friends got curious so she explained how to get the coins. Of course, who wouldn't want to earn that much by just clicking right? She said she got 1 btc from faucet claiming in a month and a half, so me and my partner tried to get that 1 btc in like a month or so. Then 2 months passed and still we haven't got the 1 btc she claimed to get. Realizing it's difficult to get it by just claiming from the faucet and searched on some other ways to get the equivalent to 1 btc and discovered there were a lot of other coins that you could get and convert to btc. And here I am, still hoping to get the 1 btc so she claimed to get in a month and a half.

that was very nice. However, this is 2017 and faucets are not as worth as it used to and you have to pay for the fee in order to withdraw the money. There are various kind of job on the internet and you can apply to it to earn more Bitcoin. You can try it on the service section on Bitcointalk

Seems like most of us has been through the same path when it comes to bitcoin even i was very much interested in the beginning then due to some circumstances i lost my interest and then a year later when i made return to bitcoin i was shocked to see that the value has been increased by leaps and bounces in last 12 months and wished i should have invested more into it.

Yeah we missed the right time to get into bitcoins as I know bitcoin when price was too low in the past but at that time I thought its not worth to waste time and money in it and I ignored it completely but later on when price reached to the roof it draw my attention towards it but till that point it was too late.

I would support you saying that it's st not to late investing in Bitcoins but I also understand those who say that they have missed the perfect moment. Like in everything else so with Bitcoin too people think that there were some better opportunities they haven't used. I'm in Bitcoin world since 2013 and I also have the feeling sometimes that I haven't used all my chances right in that period.
But, yes, it's not to late to enter the Bitcoin world and make profit.
