For me, it was about 3 months- I had too much work assignments plus kids were unwell.

Usually I check once every two days but the recent events (halving, Brexit etc) have increase the frequency of checking to at least once a day.

If I'm correct, I've gone for about a week when I went to an island with my school friends last may. There was no internet connections at that time, so I was forced to forget the things about bitcoin, especially the current bitcoin price. That vacation was really relaxing Cheesy

What's the longest you have gone without checking the price of Bitcoin online?

Not really sure how long, because I installed a bitcoin price checker on my phone which gives me notification every 10minutes (adjustable) since I knew about bitcoin around 1.5year ago.
Maybe the longest time is when I was asleep (7-8hours) hehehe

I think it was about 3 days when i had some personal issues and the last thing i cared about was the bitcoin price or any other activity beside my work.But i have to admit that checking bitcoin price is some kind of addiction and i do it many times every day,at least it is a harmless addiction  Grin

Just back from holiday! My last check was on 28-June so it has been more than two weeks. Price doesn't seem to have changed much since then.

I'd have to say that the longest time I've gone without checking the price of bitcoin is probably about a week.  It's when I went on  vacation.

More than a year. This is because I ran out of bitcoin.

But then, when I started to see it in the news again, I got interested in it again.

Haha I remember there was a time when this was an addiction, I would check the price maybe 5-10 times an hour  Cheesy I don't day trade anymore, it's too stressful for me and I've never been very successful at it. Although I don't day trade, I still occasionally have open positions to buy or sell but I'm a lot more calm about it now. These days I'll check the price maybe 2 or 3 times a day  Smiley

I don`t check the bitcoin price very often.Maybe every 48 hours.

I have small amount of btc so the price changes doesn`t affect my savings that much.

I would get nervous if a have lots of bitcoins  Grin

Yey, I have been there before ole friend and I did the same, but I have walked away from that too. I now only check the price once per day and if I see high volatility situations, I climb back in until it calm down. I like to profit from the low and the highs and this leads to compulsive price checking behavior.

The Halving event pulled me back again, after a long rest. I was hoping for more volatility. ^smile^

Usually I check once every two days but the recent events (halving, Brexit etc) have increase the frequency of checking to at least once a day.

i also was super busy a while ago that i couldn't even open bitcointalk or even post but i kept checking bitcoin price even then.
i think the longest time i didn't check the price was a couple of days at most.

Almost a year for me, when price broke 350 and I stopped checking. I still read news, so I know how much Bitcoin cost most of time.
Started checking price when it moved up 450.

I check it daily, its very easy and hassle free if you have an android phone you can install apps like Preev or BTC Price. Personally I like BTC price a lot as it has all of the major exchanges listed there, like blockchain, coinbase etc. This just takes a few seconds, just a click on the app and it will automatically load your favorite exchange which you choose in the settings. Anyone can check the bitcoin price, daily, and also hourly with these kind of apps. I think any bitcoiner should have these apps or at least one of these apps installed in their smartphone. They are also very lightweight which means don't take too much space and don't slow down your phone.

The longest I've gone without checking the price of Bitcoin was for 5 days when I went on a fishing/camping trip two years ago. I usually check the price when I get up in the morning, two or three more times during the day and once more before going to bed.
