i am sure many have lost bitcoin here, in the form of scams and ponzi's, even i have lost a few coins through ponzi's and scams,and some of the scam sites are still running and some sites have popped up with different domain names and designs,but it is still the same old scams.if you are not careful and if you become greedy that is when you get scammed ,thinking you could double the coins.

Yeah the scam investment sites.  I remember still when I was knew to bitcoin and got really amazed on what it could do that it is just like the real money.  I bought a not so big amount of bitcoin but it is really came from my little savings and so it is really precious to me.  Then after some sign up and depositing money, when the time comes that I could withdraw the interest of my investment, it could not be transferred to my wallet.  I really regret that I did not search the site before.  It is all in the internet saying that it was a scam. 

Ergh. That hurts. We tend to do the wrong choice when we are excited with something. But now we understand that this is real money so we can be more careful the next time. Actually all those exchanges can just vanish like a bubble and we cant do a thing about that. All we can do is find the exchange or wallet that can really be trusted.

Wrong choices are normally commited  especially when we  are still lacking  of knowledge more about bitcoin and we  really cant avoid those  because  we didnt even expect that those sites are just scams. Its reality that all people  who fall on those hyips and easy doublers are  aiming  for money for sure and  our greed  pursue us to proceed to deposit.

Yeah everyone wants to double their money in quick time without working hard or making any efforts, and when they come across through such offers they easily get trapped and start putting their money in those sites.

Sometimes, when trading. It is difficult to make projections in this market, to be honest, especially when there is not much trading volume.
That's almost impossible to do!
I have lost some bitcoin but i was scammed. I was trying to buy some locally but I have never received or heard back from that person.
Luckily it wasn't that big of a sum of money but I advice everyone to be very skeptical when trying to buy bitcoin. Alot of people are just out there to scam and make their money in an unfair way.

If you want to buy bitcoins then you should always do it from trusted and listed site, I always buy it from  localbitcoins and it is the best and trusted site to buy bitcoins.

I lost a lot of my money in Yobit exchange. I invested them In an altcoin and the altcoin price got dumpped so badly and I almost lost all of my money there.
but I learnt a good lesson now. and will never deal with altcoin without confirming and doing proper research.

It is very difficult to double in a short time. But it is possible to increase your capital on the stock market with the necessary experience. Yesterday I bought gold on the market and sold forecx today with nice profits, also platinum and sold and sold two other .With nice profit. With a good experience you can achieve a lot in the forex market .For me this is the ideal way to double your capital. An intense job every day .

I'm ever lost about 0.04 without being expected. I just checked on my blockchain and it's already gone.

Have you ever lost Bitcoin?

If that happened, why?   Was it your own fault,  or were you scammed?
Yes i lost almost 0.1 btc on an old phone when it reset and I didn't care to backup the wallet seed out of laziness

I think most of us have lost by in investing in could mining sites as we were new to the world of bitcoins as that time and  were not aware about the scammers playing around.

I have lost some Bitcoin in the past before and I regret losing them because nobody wants to lose their Bitcoin. Bitcoin can become worth allot of money in the future.
I lost them with gambling so I suggest that you do not spend your Bitcoin on gambling.
i think that everyone lost some bitcoins at some point in their life, i think the biggest loss was when i accidentally deleted my wallet and i didnt have a private key

Yeah I did the same mistake in the past when I was new in bitcoin,  I mistakenly deleted my multibit account and I was not aware about private key and I lost 0.1 btc in it.

Some people  have the same incident as your  when they accidentally deleted their wallets which is  really sad  especially if theres a fund inside it.  We  really cant avoid this things thats why we should  be careful nextime and we must keep or store important things connected to our wallet so that we dont  lose our bitcoin and especially  also to those things like gambling  and any other investments.

i think 0.1 bitcoin before is not that huge but if you keep it carefully until now i think you already gain profit on it, me also i lost some of my coins but not too huge before when i ma a newbie in bitcoin i am greedy to earn fast that is why i am invest in mining site with a good standing but later on it will turning to scam site.

mining site are just truly scam sites does not last for so long which is  a thing  that almost newbies are fall of to that kind of scheme. I was also a victim too  when i was  also newbie before which im fooled to believe those things  and my greed pushes mo to invest since returns are too good  to be true.

Yes alot. Around $50 I had lost in bitcoin. Although all was because if my own fault. I shouldn't have invested in HYPE sites. Because of hurry in making more money i had lost all my bitcoin just in a day but fortunately  I had recovered all with bitcointalk and a local tradrer . Tabs good I had got my money back.

Hyips and gambling are the most common places where people have lost their coins, as everyone is looking for quick money that makes them to visit those sites.

Yes alot. Around $50 I had lost in bitcoin. Although all was because if my own fault. I shouldn't have invested in HYPE sites. Because of hurry in making more money i had lost all my bitcoin just in a day but fortunately  I had recovered all with bitcointalk and a local tradrer . Tabs good I had got my money back.
everyone loose their money because of their own faults. there is no one else to blame. bitcoin itself is not something like scam and thief who steal your coins.
it is people's own fault that they invest their money in wrong places and store them in wrong wallets and gamble with them.. if everyone play safe they will never loose anything..
