I sold my TV  📺 set, before I was able to invest on cryptocurrency. I was a student then and there was no other way for me to raise 💰 money than selling off my TV! I made a wise decision I guess!

I was an escrow for a bet between two guys and holding their  money until one party is able to fulfil a mission before i can release the money to him and so i after learning of bitcoin and how my cousin was making little bucks from his altcoin rig decided to buy some old graphic cards with that money and i succeeded in holding them off  for a month before i could raise the money back and by then i already had an altcoin mining rig.

I'm crazy right now.... I put 60% of ALL my savings in the cryptocurrency. It's suicide, from the point of view of traditional money management.

I knew a lot of guys who are getting paid on their Credit Card, a lot of them are "burning" their credit cards on bitcoins, and they pay each month for that.

There are a lot of ways to buy bitcoin, but i will never understand how is it possible to see people investing in bit coin with credit card.. In the end, it will give you a lot of debts if bitcoin crash (hope to never see it happening)

plonked it all on credit card

The craziest thing that i did, was just to put all my earnings in bitcoin, it was a good move because i earned a lot of money, i haven't sold them yet.

I knew bitcoin in 2011. I thought it was a Ponzi scheme and didn't care. It made me miss the chance. This year, I borrowed 20% of the money to invest bitcoin, and now I have made a lot of profit. I hope this is right this time.

I was stupid enough to invest in scam websites. Lesson learned: Never consider the idea of quick cash through 'too good to be true promises'.

I was unemployed for about 3 years (went to school for 2 but same thing, no income). I decided to go YOLO on BTC in september. Credit cards, balance transfers straight into bank account(yes it works!), and about 30% of my life savings. I figure worse case scenario, I have to pay all the money back and be left with exactly $0. Anyway, my YOLO paid off. I have no more credit card debt, all loans are paid off. Went to an auction and won a small house that I live in now, might rent out the upstairs after I fix it. I have some profit left over, my plan is to find more small business IRL, maybe another house, who knows, small affordable things that I can live off of in the long run. Very lucky this all worked out somehow lol.

Whats the craziest thing you have done while trying to invest on cryptocurrency


I'm sure there are some back-alley personalities around here that have some thrilling stories about earning bitcoin in ridiculous ways, so it really gives me pause to even explain any of my methods/stories in a thread and label it the "craziest" things I've ever done in this respect. I remember a couple years ago selling my Xbox, laptop, games and some other electronics I had lying around for bitcoin; I can't say that it's too crazy, but it certainly makes it crazy when you sold an Xbox for over $5,000 (y'know, cause bitcoin is soaring). I used to mine bitcoins on my crappy laptop without a GPU, some of you may find that pretty crazy  Grin

I'm honestly embarrassed at how boring my methods of earning bitcoin have been, it almost makes me feel obligated to launch a service, game or something to contribute a little more heavily... What makes this thread kind of sad though honestly, is that the people with the craziest stories will opt-out naturally, because it's most likely those with the craziest stories that are unable to share their stories.  Shocked

I sacrifice my full-time job outside. I have a family, it's a big risk for me becuase I don't have enough money, we have a lot debt but I'm still willing to risk my job in order to study and be a bounty hunter in a world of crypto. That's my craziest thing I've ever done in my whole life Smiley But... That's my craziest decision I made and change our life, from nothing to something.

Ahhh.. ok

I think I am not doing any craziest thing like you and I think my investment on crypto is like other people which is I only buy bitcoin with my money but I am not sold anything stuff I have. but I think in the past, the craziest thing that I am doing is I invest in some program investment with big money and fortunately, I can get my money back plus I can earn more profit because I have a good track record with the investment company.

The craziest moves? I took out a loan to buy a cryptocurrency, but fortunately I've paid off the loan now and gained more than 10 times the profit.

Going 90% on cryptocurrencies. I know this is kinda not a minority nowadays, but yea. That's incredibly risky if you ask me.

LOL. My craziest thing I've ever done is I asked my parents to let me sell the house to get money to invest in Bitcoin when Bitcoin price was only 1k$ Smiley). Of course my parents didn't let me do it and I suspended for a month in my house Smiley). For now when my parent know that Bitcoin price has increased from 1k$ to nearly 20k$, they feel very regret about it Smiley))
