How much had you lost with bitcoin and before it?Did you won?

[knowhow]

Well im at online income around something like 5 years ,i had invested something like 4000dollars before bitcoin at several places,being something like half ot that into forex,then ptc,doublers and hyip projects i had left with something like 90 dollars in the end of those insane investments.After bitcoin,being a part of this group i may say im recovering the loss made into the pass ,and the best thing is im not wasting anymore my time and even half of the time i spended before .Bitcoin is changing my life,now its just an extra income that i get from it but when i remember the bad things ,investments made in the past ,and see and know that im getting a montly income,and reducing all the lost money and i believe in some years or maybe months i would be recovering those,what make me pissed is i could had those money and be able to grow my coins todays ,but well we learn when we make a bad investment ,a bad decision.Share your histories,dont need to show all but a part of how it were before and with the bitcoin.

Bitcoin help me a lot to work online easily and earn fast than before. Before engaging with Bitcoin opportunities i lost good amounts of money invested with fiat of course, and i invested a lot from my pocket, however today i earn some income from Bitcoin's opportunities and it's really helpful

I've lost some Bitcoin from a scam charity and also a scam shop, but logically I never lost anything. Because I never buy the Bitcoin, but I always earn it online.

I didn't lost great think, but i earned some income since working with Bitcoin
It's really good chance with this powerful crypto currency

I suffered small losses in 2013 and 2014 (largely due to poor and emotion-driven decisions during my first attempt at trading). In the last weeks I've managed to compensate those previous losses, cashed out the majority of my crypto (wasn't that much anyway) and threw the remaining dust into some vague altcoins in an attempt to grow a sizeable amount of Bitcoin out of almost nothing. It seems however that this plan has derailed for the time being.

I've decided not to buy crypto anymore with money from my bank accounts but 'generate' them via trading and paid Services.

Started off with a meagre amount of BTC. Made alot through some lucky good buys on alts, and then took a big beating on others. Ended up about the same.

I have lost around 1 bitcoin from scam shops and websites. I have also lost some from gambling, but not much as I am not addicted unlike a lot of other people. But I couldn't really say that I lost my bitcoins as I have earned them through the internet. The coins that I have bought, are still in my bitcoin wallet.

scamming site, must kill, because hurt many people

[hasiramasenju]

i had invest 0.2 btc at golden-cows.com in 2014 but never get ROI because this site is become scam already and since that happened i will stay away from fonzi site because i believe every ponzi is pure scam

[tokeweed]

From 4000 USD to 90?  What were those other investments?  Can you tell us specifically what those are?

---snip---

I was not much lucky Bitcoins in the beginning , i got scammed for approximately 500 $ for the first time and it was not all cause the horible chat at scrypt.cc made me invest some coins in that ponzi shit ..and maybe some more at gambling .
anyways ,if a user/newbie is active on bitcointalk then he saved himself from 99% scams or BTC losses, which i regret.

I think i have lost perhaps about 0,5 BTC by placing them at a few exchanges who didn't pay me out.
If i use an exchange now, i don't let it stay for a long time at these exchanges. Only a few days.

Forex, a bad investment? I don't think so mate. I have been a forex trader for almost four years with good results, although I have to admit that my first couple of years were really hard.

My current interest in bitcoin has come precisely from my forex broker, which is nowadays promoting the btc as a new payment system.

[Amph]

not much around 2 btc in some x2 doubler at the time, when there was huge demand here and there, and plenty of scammer

but the big loss here is the missed opportunity at the beginning, to acquire easily many bitcoin, this was the real loss for many here

[Proxiebuier]

My big win at paycoin 1.2BTC at zenminer maybe ~2btc from referal and free Ghs also buy some GHS
and my big lose in litecoin ~1.5 and paycoin ~1.2 and my yahoo+gmail account get hack i lose 60.000 stellar + 3btc

Have times really moved on already?
I would have imagined that at least one of the above posters has been goxxed like me.

[christinalorence]

At the first time I lose it many times. But times gone I won it.

How did you manage to recover your prior investment losses by using bitcoin? Are you day trading or investing in bitcoin based stuff? Would be nice to know how you managed to get 4000 back and in what time.

Yes that's a lesson many had to learn at the beginning.
Leave your coins at the exchange and you take the risk to never see it again.
Rule no.1: If you don't own the private keys, it's not your coins.
