A whole bitcoin? No, I don't think I ever had one. I did get smaller amounts though. The first amount was from a bitcoin faucet that now closed down, can't really remember the name.

Got my first partial bitcoin from a faucet. Then when I realized viewing ads wasn't worth my time I bought some. I currently have about 0.2 from freebies and way more from exchanges.

Well, the first time I bought back in 2011 I purchased 3,000 coins Smiley I remember I bought off MTGOX because that was like the only btc exchange back then.

I bought several using PayPal back in 2011 before everyone started having issues. In three transactions, I bought almost 100 at around $1 each but I gambled most of them away.  Cry

Over the last two years, I've earned and spent thousands but my BTC wallet is still eerily similar to my USD wallet: almost empty.

Still around.
