Do you remember what it felt like the very first time you sent out a Bitcoin transaction to another address in your life? For some, it might have been an easy thing to do, especially for the geeks who were here when Bitcoin was born and it had not been valued and traded against fiat currency as following soon after, yet for others it can be very confusing to get things right.

Were you filled more with happiness, excitement or fear when you clicked that 'send' button? And in which year was it when that happened? Did it it turn out just fine, did your transaction arrive where intended?

It was a long time ago, somwhere in 2013 but I remember that I was very exicted and afraid at the same moment because I wasn't sure if I'm doing everything right, will the transaction reach destination or will I lose my coins. I was new Bitcoin users and I felt like I'm part of something brand new and revolutionary. It felt good.

I remember reading for hours and hours how it worked and sent myself a few cents. I was scared I was going to screw it up and lose the bitcoins I finally had figured out how to collect. Wasted some time in faucets just so I didn't have to invest anything. In hindsight I'd've just bought $10 worth and screwed around with them rather than wasting hours on faucets collecting portions of pennies at a time hahahahaha!

I first send it in the latter half of the year 2016. I had entered into my first ever transaction. I just did not know how it would work, the guy had sent some address and I was trying to wonder how and where it would fit. After googling for a while, finally figured where to input the address. Since I was sending a big amount for the first time, I was bit nervous finally hit the send button, and contacted to the other person and he is like he did not receive it. Imagine my horror and the few panicky hours post that. Thanks to God, he finally replied he received it, and I came to know this transactions take time, can never forget it.

I'm not really sure when is the first time I sent a Bitcoin and what was it for, but as far as I'm aware is that my first transaction was sent to bought an airtime credit for my phone. And of course I was really nervous that time, I didn't want to make a mistake because I was scared that I would send my Bitcoin to the wrong address or with a wrong amount. That's why I checked the address again and again, and also the amount of the transaction.
And luckily, it ended well for me. The transaction wasn't sent to the wrong address and the amount wasn't wrong, then I successfully bought an airtime credit for my phone.

faucet used to be profitable

At first, I was very nervous doing it, because I was told any mistake made cannot be reversed, so I need to read the instruction several time before clicking send, but excited when I saw the transaction confirmed. A very good experience of have

Do you remember what it felt like the very first time you sent out a Bitcoin transaction to another address in your life? For some, it might have been an easy thing to do, especially for the geeks who were here when Bitcoin was born and it had not been valued and traded against fiat currency as following soon after, yet for others it can be very confusing to get things right.

Were you filled more with happiness, excitement or fear when you clicked that 'send' button? And in which year was it when that happened? Did it it turn out just fine, did your transaction arrive where intended?
I was mostly nervous since I knew that if I did a mistake I will never see my coins again so I checked the transaction over and over again I even checked if the address was correct, and then I hit send after some minutes it got a confirmation and that is when I realized how easy it was to use bitcoin.

That is what I experienced also, I was so nervous cashing out my first ever earned bitcoin it is just same feeling during my graduation day, although it is just small amount I am proud that I earned bitcoin with that I became more interested in earning more bitcoin especially in trading. Yes, I don't earn yet from trading now but I am looking forward for it in the future.

I first sent some bitcoin to an investment site and  it was a mix emotion of excitement and fear,
I was excited cause it was my first investment and I was afraid it might be scam or I might have sent it to a wrong btc address.

I sent my first bitcoin transaction back in July 2015.
At that time i didn`t know the difference between a bitcoin,bit and satoshi.
I wan`t aware about confirmations and that kind of stuff.Anyway,it was awesome.

I don't quite remember the first time I sent my money away but the very first time I make a transaction to buy coffee is etched in my memory. It was a few months ago when I found a coffee shop that accepts bitcoin and decided to give it a try. It was an exciting experience to make a bitcoin transaction in reality after a long time earning it, I was like a kid getting his candy for getting good grades  Grin

well, that has lasted for three years, and I still remember it. My first dealings of bitcoin is of freebitco.in. Well, I am very happy at the delivery, and certainly it amounts to very little. but it is my first bitcoin transaction, and it is the first time I do transactions on the Internet. so, I still remember it.

I can't remember the exact date/time when i have sent my first bitcoin out of my wallet, but i think i have sent it to gambling platform to play some dice. At that time price per coin was around 300$ and i have lost so much bitcoin those days in dice site, i actually feel sad when i think about it.
