1. Not getting in when Bitcoin was still $100 because of the hassle of registering on MT Gox (in a way this was a positive thing looking back)
2. Selling at the bottom back in the December 13 crash (n00b then)

not buying into bitcoin when I first heard about it and the price was so low that it hurts just thinking about it.

I know how it feels.
I heard aboutg bitcoin whan the exchange rate was 5 USD.
I even posted the wikipedia article on my facebookpage calling this new technology "interesting"  Grin

There were no reactions, I forgot about it, was interested again when exchange rate was 10-12 USD (late 2013). Even downloaded the QT and got some free mBTC by using faucets.

Then I had exams and did not checked the exchange rate... After the exams, the exchange rate was >35 USD  Shocked
I immediatly wired USD to Bitstamp, when it arrived, the exchange rate was >70 USD  Undecided

bought some BTC. Saw the bubble pop, bought a lot <80 USD Cheesy Cheesy

In April 2011 was the big shut down of Full Tilt Poker. I had a few hundred bucks on there that ended up not getting released until this year. Anyway, back then a few people were talking about bitcoins as a way to play legal unregulated online poker in the US. I thought to myself, "I'll buy about $500 worth for $1/BTC and try it out" but I NEVER DID. I bought my first at $645/BTC. Now I think about it every day and start having stupid time machine fantasies and shit. If time travel is ever invented, it will be someone from this forum  Cheesy

I had invested about 80% of my coins in BTCT.co. Alltogether I had some 30 BTC worth of shares, mostly of LTC-Global. I got the other shares transferred to exchanges such as Crypto-stocks. But lost all my LTC-Global shares after it was liquidated. Lost around 28 BTC.... would have been worth $13,000-14,000 now. Feels bad.

I regret selling off some at $100 and not buying in more when it was less than $1.

I don't think anyone made any bad decisions.

Only a lucky few who had some stashed somewhere and forgot them have the great stories. Or those adopters who developed a company which manages huge amounts.

For us everyday barely winning a scratch ticket at the local gas station. We are where we are because we traded. If everyone held, there would be no market, there wouldn't be more (new) people having a stake in the exchange. It's not much different than a company with a limited amount of stock, there has to be a market maker in the first place for it to be worth more than .0001. Other than those who have gotten coins stolen, I think we all are feeling pretty good about what we have acquired.

Me personally, I rather enjoy looking at bitcoin as a coupon. I got quite a bit when it dropped to about $350 and been having fun shopping when it got back to $500. The kids are enjoying the xbox that I payed full price for but with money I got a lot cheaper Smiley
