I made the mistake of leaving coins at Cryptsy years ago only to come back recently and find them shut down.  |

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Very sad to lost bitcoin, but sometimes it will gives us more learning to be careful into the next thing we do in our bitcoin, i think now you will be more extra careful on the site that you invest. |

We do lack of knowledge thats why we commit mistakes which is normal for me and i treat it as a stepping stone to my success because i assume that no one didnt commit a mistake in the beggining. |

I have lost bitcoin once or twice this was because i was trading and did a few bad trades which resulted in a loss of bitcoin.
But nowadays im more careful when trading and I trade with way smaller amounts then I used to.

Have you ever lost Bitcoin?
If that happened, why? Was it your own fault, or were you scammed?
"Your own fault" or "were yo scammed" are the same thing if you ask me , because if you get scammed then it was your fault for not using escrow in your transaction or trusting people just like that or simply using reversible payment methods . and no , I never lost any bitcoins and I'm not planning to start now .  Using trusted escrows has been proven to not be always a guarantee for safety. In that case it is very difficult to avoid being scammed here on this forum, even while using trusted forum escrows. Regarding OP; I am happy to say that I have not lost any coins. Just because Master-P scammed people doesn't mean all escrows are bad , but yes you got a point . Still , 99% of scam accusations on Bitcointalk are totally the fault of people who gets scammed . I dont think there are allot of people who losed bitcoina and if they losed bitcoins i know for sure that they got scammed by hackers because i think bitcoins can easily be hacked. |

It's something incredible lessons within me, because it is trading should be done in a manner that carefully in doing so, because in our pursuit of trading uncertainty so we must always see it in different ways. When we wrong in seeing it then the defeat we will get. But from your event, I am sure that you have something very great reason in being an extraordinary trader |

Well at least these coins will never touch the real owners neither will be used by anyone, but I have seen guys which saw vanity address and the private key in public (like the one in github) and started receiving money but in fact the private key of this address is publicly posted and everyone can use it. |

It is not just a single bitcoin because it has really a big amount if you are going to exchange that into fiat. Good thing that I haven't lost that big amount in my history to bitcoin the biggest amount that I have lost is that only 0.005 BTC and that is when I became a victim of hyip because I was still new in bitcoin that time and good thing also that I didn't invest all my savings. |

I never lost bitcoins and I'm pretty happy about it, I think that losing bitcoins is not good at all and the fact is that you need to control it good.
Always check your wallets and your PC for any suspicion you are having.

On rare occasions, when I was trading. It is an unpredictable market, as they say. But over time you learn how to make better movements. It is important to be always up to date with the news and development of the crypto projects.

Its not a rare occasion since in doing trading we normally experience this kind of thing because we can predict the market price on any time basis. Mistakes at first are just normal because we learn from it so that in the next move we know already what to do, even the market price is volatile we could lessen the risk if we got already the trading pattern and things that must be considered. Lossing bitcoin in trading is not a rare thing. |

I lost some altcoins trading cause i wansn't attentive and tried to have a deal with random guy that i found online, now i am more careful in this case.
it is better not to have any deals with strangers online because you might lose a lot of money really easy, i lost bitcoins only on gambling Yeah I do have lost some Bitcoin but that was because I was to greedy and busy with gambling at the time. Bt know I have learned on how to save money. I do not lose my Bitcoin anymore because that is latterly a waist if you mange to do that. Sometimes I have lost small amounts... But if you have proper care and follow the safety recommendations, to prevent such things from happening, probably will not have major problems. |

I lost 0.06BTC in a coinbase account, actually my fault back in 2014, i forgot password and also the email id which i used, since i was new to bitcoin at that time, i was little scared of spam emails to my inbox and used a temporary email id.
Next one is 0.23BTC in Invested for doubling in 2xbitco.in. obviously i was so dumb to realize bitcoin is a currency at that time. i though bitcoin was some kind of coins given by some site for doing jobs or for some kind of activity in their site.

Yes, sometimes and most of the times I have lost in gambling, but I have never invested in any cloud mining sites or else, my loss would be even higher at this stage.

Yeah it was smart decision of not investing in any cloud mining site, I have always been away from those sites but have lost many times in gambling in the past and the journey still continues. |

Hash ocean mining scam is number one, Bitcoin Doubling, even some faucet that fail to pay after performing the required task
I never trust those website Scheme Ponzi website are not real one where they offering cloud mining services and after a long run they going to scam people and also some faucet are offering high of earning in satoshi are scammed too lots of people are creating crap site to earn money. Yeah and this sites have become a real headache for its users as it creates bad image of bitcoin in the minds of people who wants to enter the world of bitcoins. Yes if the weebsite are turn into scam after you deposited a minute ago and you realize the schem ponzi scambug website are not paying investors at all thats a really messed you've done in your life traing is much more appropriate for me you can resell the coins if ever. |

Its better not to get greedy and be satisfied with what we are earning at a moment as those sites will surely scam you and disappear with your money in long run. |
