I was lured by bitcoin by the promise of fast profit and I thought that you can earn more money in bitcoin that you can actually earn from real life opportunities.
I learned hard way that if you want to earn either you have to get extremely lucky in risky investments or do it hard way by working your ass down.

I found bitcoin in late 2014 when I lost my job and I thought and still think that this currency can chance my life. I started all sort of PTC-s , faucets like moonbit and alikes but was not making nice amount and was getting tired, then I found localbitcoins  after few months and bought a bit, conserving it still and buying and earning even now in my hopes it will skyrocket the price after few years and change my life. Yep, I am an idealist.

I started purely to make profit with trading as the price was going up and down heavily. That was all I was caring about back then. After a year I started to get interested in the technology behind Bitcoin. Then I started to realize that Bitcoin is the change in the financial world we have been waiting for so long. We can finally be boss over our own money.

I would like to know what experiences did you had when you first started with Bitcoins. As for me, I had many that I would like to share with you.

When I began in the Bitcoin world, I was a complete rookie with no proper knowledge of how did mining worked or anything about cryptocurrencies. I just thought about Bitcoin as another payment processor like PayPal. But when I joined the BitcoinTalk community, I learned so many things along the way. In my process of learning in the first days, I decided to invest into cloud mining services. Since I didn't knew much about it, I invested a plenty amount of Bitcoins to start my journey into it. During that time, I had gotten into many different services. Those were GAW Miners, then Cointellect, cloudminr.io and finally Hashnest. After getting scammed many times by the services mentioned previously, (except for Hashnest) I have lost many Bitcoins. As a result, I decided to never invest into cloud mining and thus dedicate myself into learning more about the cryptocurrency and look for other ways to earn Bitcoins. It was then that I enrolled into the signature campaign that I am currently into and during all that time I began to earn Bitcoins as well as diversify my investments into different alt coins. Now I am dedicated to trading Bitcoins and other alt coins, as well as working for it (like the signature campaign and working as a freelancer) in order to earn coins and build up my portfolio along the way.

Anyways, what would be your experiences with this exciting cryptocurrency?  Cheesy
that's better story than mine,i have started bitcoin on 2013,and i just follow some amateur step to earn bitcoin,at that time i just found faucet,looking for giveaway and some small task with small paid with bitcoin. so shame Grin

I spent almost half day just to buy my first bitcoin in 2013. I didn't know about localbitcoins and there's no exchange that accepted fund from my bank account. I remembered I had to buy some Linden Dollars with PayPal (virtual currency in a game called Second Life) on virwox, then sold Linden Dollars for Bitcoin. Paypal bans accounts that deal with cryptocurrencies because in the past some scammers filed a chargeback after receiving Bitcoins and that's really a nightmare for the sellers. So I spent around $180 for a btc and the next day Bitcoin price soared to $220. Truly amazing..

Well when i first started bitcoin, i first got a wallet and then i started trying to find the best websites for earning bitcoins. I first started with sites but they pay was really bad so i tried faucets but that was really a time waste and i was getting no where and in the end i tried surveys but they were pretty useless so i asked my friends and they recommended this so i tried it out and it was the website with the best pay and that is how i started bitcoin.

Yeah, and when I started to earn bitcoin from campaigns it was a great feeling as you get paid on weekly basis and I was really happy to see my earnings from it.

it was hard, confusing, frustrating, and time-wasting. that pretty much sums up my first few months in bitcoinland.
at first I used to go around hunting for faucets and referrals. after I got tired of faucets I moved to gambling and cloudmining and got scammed once. then comes the hyips and I got scammed again (I didn't know a thing about ponzi before this.).

now I just stick with low-risk investments including a little bit of trading and very little gambling.

exactly. at first you think you can gain a lot of money easily. but then you realize that we're too late for that.  Undecided

Trusted an exchange that climbed to the top 3 in just under 2 years with your money? you are fucking stupid.

Faucet, Faucet, and Faucet. Those are what I did when I first started to earn Bitcoin, which definitely it's a waste of time.

faucet used to be profitable

I started in a little different way than faucets, it was around 2012 and coinbase was just launched and they were giving 0.1 BTC for new members "was worth a little more than a dollar at the time", After that it was fun to learn about bitcoin and it's system... Did not invest in it though...

the same for me, i remember using only faucets and trying to make a lot of money out of that so i did not earn anything good

i started earning good money only when i started trading my bitcoins with other cryptocurrencies such as ethereum

i was too greedy at the very beginning as the price quite frequently was moving up and down with around 40-50% per month back then. but i have learned from all the mistakes i made at that time. and now i am making some decent profits.
