I am surprised to see the vote, than mostly members are here who lost their bitcoins and only base of fault. I have never lost my bitcoin except in gambling, otherwise i don't do any mistake with my bitcoins, but in altcoin trading i have done a lot of mistakes than i know trading is not easy thing, it need experience.

Gambling is a fault as well i guess if it is done for gaining profits, maybe not if done just for fun, because if you gamble for earning profits on daily basis then you really must be out of your mind.

My biggest lost ever was on the altcoin market. I lost almost an entire BTC in an altcoin that id rather not mention.  I was hoping that the price would go higher but I was too greedy and instead of getting out of the market, I keep holding. I was almost a second from selling at the top form kept holding. I paid the price.

I have lost some btc, but not because I got scammed or  hacked it was all my fault  that I lost them. I was just gambling with  them and to this day. I regret what I have done, that's why I suggest that you  don't gamble with you  btcs because  they are worth a lot of money.

Have you ever lost Bitcoin?

If that happened, why?   Was it your own fault,  or were you scammed?
While the gods were saving me from such losses. Earn given me very hard, so for me to lose it is to lose faith in this work.
Bro please do not loose hope, try the signature campaigns as I can see you wear no signature. Signature campaigns can work for you because they give you good amount of bitcoins just for sharing your thoughts in this forum.

I am happy you never gave such losses but please take my advice and see here are many ways to earn, maybe try alt coin trading ?

Sad to hear, but you were one of the firm believers to see that coin go up in value significantly as you probably thought that the coin in question had a lot potential. I see this happen a lot. These people keep saying I will happily hold even when the price goes down significantly, but they are burning from inside. It was like this from the very beginning and it's still continuing today. People should wake up and stop seeing altcoins as long term investment.

I got ripped off my genesis-mining a year ago, I wasn't sure how it worked but I ended up getting only 70% of my investment back... I've also tried a few altcoins on yobit but I seem to lose more than I can win.

Well don't believe if someone is offering that to sell their bitcoins at low price. It's either it came from stealing or else that is truly a scam only.
I feel sorry for you that you have lost a lot of bitcoin but I know that taught you a lesson already. Just like me I got scammed too but in different way because I invested in hyip and I didn't knew that time that they are just scam so it did. And that's why I don't trust hyip's anymore they are totally scams.

hyips are totally scams thats why i didnt put already attention in to it. previously when i was a newbie  im to greedy thats why i decided to those schemes  which  promises good returns on a short period of time.  In the case of  being scammed by people on just  selling cheap price bitcoin be sure to have an escrow for somewhat you could get assurance on your transaction.

There is no risk involved in earning from signature campaign and you can expect your earnings on regular basis, and make sure that you don't waste that earnings again in gambling and investment sites.

lost many times in gambling and hyip ponzi sites.. so sad.. Sad

Well that is really sad that you have been victimized by those hyips ponzi sites. That is not new when you are just a newbie in bitcoin. Don't worry we are the same, when I was still new to bitcoin. I thought that those type of investments are going to be a good source but instead of earning what happened is that I've lost bitcoins, the bitcoins that I have been collecting with faucets lost easily. So that is a lesson learned for me, I hope that is also going to be a lesson to other people here.
Yes ponzi sites are not just increasing day by day they are also starting things like signature campaigns which attract some innocent members on our forum and after loosing money they think bitcoins was wrong. While hey don't know that bitcoins was just a medium.

Exactly and if they get scammed at the initial stage then it creates negative impression of bitcoins in their mind and if that continues then it can affect the adoption level.

Trading takes time and determination, and if you do not have either of them, it is very difficult to win with bitcoin trading. You will lose a lot at first, but as you get more experience you will get better. It can not hurt you so much when you are trying with smaller amounts of bitcoins initially Smiley

Yeah if you are not aware about the tactics of trading then its good to start with small capital so even if you loose at initial stage it won't affect your financial status and over a period of time it will make you a better trader.

Start with smaller amount and you learning about trading tactics / coin trend community can give you benefit for choosing the coins.
And after you have little knowledge about altcoin trading , you can raise your investment (make sure you aren't afraid for lose).

People lose their investments in trading because they invest on coins which are mostly new in the markets and no one really knows if they will stay long or not and if you invest in them you will probably lose your investment there, so someone should check the coin before investing.
