Ever missed the chance of getting bitcoin at cheaper price?

[LFC_Bitcoin]

yes many times but via mining with many shitcoin that were worth nothing to mine and then skyrocket for no reason to an unbelievable reason

but nothing can match the missed early train of bitcoin mining, where you could mine 10k bitcoin in few days...

You know that actually makes me feel pretty sick reading that

[btvGainer]

Back in 2010, a guy asked me if I want to buy his 10K bitcoin for $20 AlertPay.
Guess what? I wasn't interested in his offer as I never heard about bitcoin before that and thought I have no use with it.

I came to know about bitcoin in December 2013 when the price was at $1000USD per BTC.

What I did with that $20? Lost to a scam HYIP.

If only I accepted his offer, I'd be a millionaire. That shit still makes me sad everytime I remember.

Luck did knocked my door, but I was dumb enough to ignore  

How about you guys? Ever had an experience like me?

UPDATE: Even if I have bought it from him, I'd sell it to someone even each BTC was $10 worth. I'm so impatient you know xD

I wont blame you even I would have done the same if I were you.Most of us are impatient imagine the condition of that guy who offered you 10k btc.I am sure he must have sold it to someone else and probably for even less price

I really feel that i have missed the bitcoin price as i have got the knowledge of bitcoins too late and most of time now the price is high, but their will be more high so feeling of past price better to check for future price.

[gentlemand]

Nothing too dramatic. I remember staring gormlessly at an exchange a short time before the explosion and thinking 'nah'. It went up $200 overnight but I resisted buying any more.

[angaper]

Well, I also lost a good chance to enter this bitcoin world at earlier stages, but no matter, things are as they are and we can't change the past. It is true that nowadays it is much more difficult to get such great amount of bitcoins, but if better predictions come true and bitcoin achieve astronomic prices, we still are at a good time to acquire many of them.

[UserVVIP]

Yes, and I regret every day of my life for it.

[h3rlihy]

I missed the train on ether. I remember brushing it off as just another alt a LOONG time ago when a friend told me about it and it was practically worthless. Could've made a solid amount of cash if I'd just put even a tenner into it back then!

[zimmah]

sadly i only heard about bitcoin in 2012, and bought a few miners, only 1 miner arrived out of the multiple i have bought, and it arrived late too, so it barely made a profit. The others were complete losses as they never arrived so i basically got scammed.

If i had spend all that money on bitcoin instead, it'd still not be a millionaire, or even close, but at least i'd have more than 10 times the amount of bitcoin i have now.

Even still, i consider myself still to have quite a reasonable amount of bitcoin, and if it catches on i should still be quite rich, and possibly a millionaire if it really catches on.

But probably i won't be a millionaire any time soon.

There are many chances to make a fortunate in life. But nothing like Bitcoin, I mean , 10 times considered to be enoumous, but Bitcoin, thousands.
I always regret why I didnot get in the game earlier.

I actually received my first coin at $109. I'm not too worried about prices anymore though.

That is a great price!!
Of course, some people will regret that they didn't buy more at that price.

Not just some. Obviously, almost all the people who missed the opportunity will always regret. Not many will admit, they comfort themself so it won't hurt them

I think no need worry or regret for missing that but one should feel happy that they didn't buy any bitcoins when prices was 1000+. Who ever brought bitcoins at 1000+, now it is more than two years prices still not reached that price yet and those people may not buy any bitcoins in future. No one was knew at that time the prices of bitcoins will raise so much. It has happened suddenly and came down suddenly. I also entered into this bitcoin business when prices was about 200+ but so for made decent profits but never regret for missing low prices.

Yeah regret is just nothing can do with that better to move on you are the same guy that never attracted to bitcoin at that time because the price of it before is low. Im very sure your afraid to stake at that time because you afraid to lose money But its ok its time to move on. But i think it is miss oppurtunity to you at that time but the luck is not for you so lets continue to earn today and dont be sad for what happen in the past because as long bitcoin exist we are still earning by it.

interesting questions and responds. i have to say the only chance i have missed in bitcoin is the chance to mine it back when you could mine bitcoin at home and price was going to the moon. from that time until now i have tried my best not to miss these golden opportunities to get on the train before it leaves.

Maybe, or could be that he might have had to hold if no one has bought and sold when the price was at $1000?  

I don't know, I'm just curious to know what happend to that guy and his 10K BTC, but I don't remember who that guy was. It was those days when I used to use yahoo messenger and it's been years since I touched it.

and lol, I never heard or knew about mining until it has become more difficult to solve blocks and when I came to know about it, I also realized that I needed hell expensive of hardware.

I first heard about Bitcoin about a month before MtGox fell. So the price was already high.

However, I was just prepared to buy some (some more) this year when it was around 230$ and, since I didn't like the fees from the Pay Point machine, I looked for other option. Bad luck, until I found the better choice, the price started to rise. So I waited to fall back. It didn't..yet  Grin


About ETH & Co: there are threads with maybe 100s of coins that are already worthless. ETH can rise to the sky or can become 0. You just don't know.
The trick is to sense the change, buy low, sell high and hold only if you REALLY believe it will rise a lot.

You'll say that's the same with BTC too and I agree; just with BTC the chance to become worthless is much smaller imho.

[delliaerd]

its easy to miss chance of getiing bitcoin at a cheaper price because the price is gonna rise we need go let go of the fact, that bitcoin will stay constant. bitcoin is going to rise, so HODL

But sometimes bitcoin price instead more down from while you bought it for long time enough. Bitcoin not always grow up the value but occasionally in cheap price in few week even months

yeah, a couple of years ago you could turn your pc on and with a decent GPU you could do some solo mining bitcoin and earn a lot of money, because the difficulty was super low and also it was at the same time when the price was only increasing.
i had a friend who did this and i was too lazy to learn how to do it and start doing it.

[abhishek.g]

Whenever such question is asked , I remind of the time when the price of bitcoin actually hiked dramatically from  almost zero dollars to a huge billions of times when it hit the market . The more unfortunate thing that happened was, the guy from whom I got to hear about bitcoin could not explain things correctly else I would have enough bitcoins today !

Nah it is all good.  I think we will miss many more opportunities in the future too. Who know maybe ETH will become next big thing or some other altcoin will revolutionize market?
Or we will have some amazing $10.000 price spike? We have no idea, stop worrying about these things as you have no influence over it...
