Yeah I did. And I bought more at $900, then more at $800, then more at $600...I think all in all I bought about $20k at those prices. Never did sell. Sold 200 btc waaaay back at $10 when it was an all time high. Now I'm scarred and can't ever sell btc again because of that decision.  |

No, but I did buy my first BTC when the price was in the $700s, headed lower. I have been a steady buyer since. If I had to add it all up, my best guess is that break-even for me is the $450 - $500 range.
If we get moves upwards to $1200 again, I will continue to buy. Breaking past its ATH would be a GREAT sign that BTC will do very well given time.

Nope I didn't. But I rather have bought them at that price than losing them all on MTGox!

Hey all, just as the title says, did anyone buy bitcoin when it's price was at it's peak ($1200)? And did they sell as it was dropping, or did they still hold on? I personally felt something was happening when it peaked :-/
So, back to the topic. Did anyone buy, and did they sell as it dropped? How much did they lose? Did you feel really really sad? What kind of an emotional impact did it have on you?
I remember selling bitcoins person to person when it passed 1100-1200 mark, and when i talked to people about why they are investing and their plans, they mostly had similar answers - that they are very optimistic about bitcoin and how they will hold for longterm. The funny thing is, that they forgot all about that once it started dipping under , and soon enough - they sold at a loss. |

I repeat this lots of times. REAL investors are incredibility patient and if you want to play with the big boys, you need to implement that habit. Buying when the price goes up and selling as soon u see a few of red candles s gonna make you lose money 100%. Just stick to your coins and wait for July 22 2016. |

i never know bitcoin went upto 1200 lol, i thought the highest was around 1000. i started using bitcoin when it was around 1000 but didnt really buy much. i remember buying like 0.01 coins 1,254 or something is where it topped out! lol I didn't have any at that time. >$1200 was the price on mtgox when it was in its death throes. Everyone was madly buying bitcoin there coz they couldn't withdraw cash and bitcoin seemed the only way out. The price on reliable exchanges at the time was more like $1167 (finex) and even that was probably affected by the gox price. Not a big difference I guess, but worth mentioning. PS what advantages do you get by having a dopecoin, rather than just using bitcoin? |

You haven't lost anything until you sell for under the price you buy. So anyone who bought at peak and still holding hasn't lost a bean. |

Tons of people bought at $1200 i think its safe to say judging by the volumes on exchanges at the time. I think i bought a couple @ $900 myself, my feelings are i just went numb to price and tbh i dont really care until we see $3k or $5k. |

I didn't, at the time I thought that I missed my chance and just said fuck this, I'm never going to make profits off this price. It went back down and I still couldn't afford to buy bitcoins at the time. I waited until earlier this year. That's when I saw my chance.

No that is a lot of money to buy I prefer that bitcoins goes 200 dollars so I can buy.
I don't have that much money to buy bitcoins.

You haven't lost anything until you sell for under the price you buy. So anyone who bought at peak and still holding hasn't lost a bean. unless he invested so much money and then he need it for emergencies, so he must dump to have them back or he must use a depreciated bitcoin, which is in both case equal to lose your money... |

I put all my savings (around USD 5000) at the very peak. I am currently broke and would need some of the money but I subsequently spent it all on pizza (last food order I placed with BTC was in September IIRC) because I believe in crypto *currency*  No hard feelings, it's just money and I could get a well paid job if I really wanted but I live in a first world country so I manage never the less. |
