I wonder if the amount invested correlates to how bullish or bearish a person is  Tongue

In my case, I would have much more invested, but I caught the ass end of the social stratum. I'm just glad I was able to pick my three btc up below 55 bucks. Figure I'll keep buying what I can until it breaks a grand.

Shouldn't $0 be included in the less than $100 category?

Yeah but I just felt that someone having nothing invested in Bitcoin (and browsing this forum) is quite a statement, so it should have its own category. It is quite a bit of effort getting onto an exchange, wherever you are investing $1000 or $1, it still shows a large investment in confidence compared to sitting on the sidelines watching.

This is a could a/should a/would a post, but I've been using bitcoins as trade (for items/services) since I've started and not really been saving on to them.  So currently my btc value is slightly over $575 (at time stamp of this post).  Had I just kept them all, I'd be sitting at around $16,000 *sigh*
 
But I justify it by saying that I helped the economy by using the coins instead of hoarding them. Smiley

Nothing wrong with trading for a needed item/service. If it wasn't really needed, well then it just becomes a lesson in the value of savings, lol.

No, it is related to net worth of a person more than anything. So you should've stated the poll in percentages.

Are we talking how much money we put in, or how much money it's worth now?

If there is something that will make Bitcoin succeed, it is growth of utility - greater quantity and variety of goods and services offered for BTC. If there is something that will make Bitcoin fail, it is the prevalence of users convinced that BTC is a magic box that will turn them into millionaires, and of the con-artists who have followed them here to devour them.

true, but without using them, they have no real value and would crash at some point when people realize that.  So we gotta use them to help maintain their useful value Smiley

I think this poll refers to how much money everyone has put in

But isn't the decision to not cash out at $88 the financial equivalent to buying at $88? 

I see no difference there Smiley

About $3k, then, give or take.

Then there would have to be a "negative" option.

I agree the poll question is not very clear. Huh

I wish I had invested in June of 2012 when I first considered. My friends and family talked me out of it.  Angry

Now I think it's a bit overpriced so I am waiting. I did pre-order a BFL Jalapeno though.

I put in about $4000 USD overall (combination of mining equipment & bitcoin purchases in 2011/2012).
