Your help appreciated - what was it that HOOKED you on Bitcoin?

[babyjesusftw1]

As the months go on, Im becoming increasingly supportive of a currency that is not controlled by a state government. Governments have so much power over the value of their currency, and one decision can completely change how much your money is worth. The fact that btc is decentralized means that the demand for it is primarily the deciding factor on how much it is worth, not what dumb decisions goverments make

I love the fact that the market determines the asking price for the currency. The flow is pre-determined and independent of all international monetary agencies.

Thanks for letting us know!

Cause by the implementation of the bitcoin technology, the independence of bitcoin from institution or organization and stand alone. The freedom of the human payments.

When did you realize that Bitcoin was truly "legitimate" and could revolutionize the way the world transacts and conducts day-to-day business?

What was the moment where all of the pieces fell into place for you? Obviously, there are always new things to learn - but what was it that HOOKED you?

Your responses are very helpful, and very much appreciated. THANK YOU!

Probably watching the community and seeing Bitcoin be fairly resilient after everything that has happened with/to it are some big factors when it comes down to it, and then the opportunity to make some additional money is probably what really ended up driving me towards Bitcoin, and then actually seeing some of that money being realized and getting decent money back for my time probably helped me to stick with it, my hook if you will.

during 2015 i was searching on the web i found something interesting called bitcoin and started learning on that ,it was very user friendly like owning the wallet and transaction, it is easier to convert to fiat also and now it is popular among all crypto currencies.

That was one year ago,when i received a bitcoin payment for my online service.

Back then,i realized that i can use bitcoin as a payment method and btc can be more convenient for me.

Later i joined this forum and i was already hooked.

The only thing that hooked me to bitcoin is the potential. Bitcoin has the potential to go up to $5k in future and that is the reason why I am just storing my earning and not spending it.

I believe that being a pioneer in crypto currency industry, bitcoin can go up to that level and I it will help me to make few of my dreams come true. Waiting for that day!

I heard about bitcoin a year ago but I was not really interested as I do not believe on earning online.  Then my friends were like always talking about it and then I give it a try.  I was fascinated with the value like a 100k satoshi is equals to a dollar or something and that it really gives you real money.  Then I was hooked with it as I really need some extra income since I have no job.

I have PayPal but couldn't upload funds because i didn't have credit card or bank account at that time so buying anything from overseas and sending funds were not possible.I learnt about bitcoin and realized it is the solution to my many problems

[Gaswuwade]

Probably the ease of conducting transactions, There are plenty of economical restrictions on my country and even a CC can't be obtained, I was using some online money processors like PerfectMoney and came across bitcoin, using it ever since.

What hooked me into bitcoins is the income opportunity. Before i discover bitcoins i only rely on my salary and i dont have any income aside from that. My life is also boring even doing things in the internet doesnt entertain me. But when i met bitcoins i become addicted and i also gain some income opportunities that helped me solve my financial shortages in budgeting daily needs.

Just an accident playing games and I need to use bitcoin for my payment, I have PayPal but still cannot ise it at that time bitcoin is easy way to use that's why I turn to it.

In the pre-bitcoin era, it was impossible to move money from A to B  no matter the distance, in a cheap and fast way. It clicked instantly and realized the infinite value of such a thing, considering most people in this planet are not part of the banking economy. People now can become their own bank with an SMS phone. This alone is enough to get it going in the trillions for a marketcap once things are more mature.
