I started after the initial takeoff around March of 2011. I set up miners on my AMD card, and was making a btc every few days initially. My how times have changed.

Spring 2011 - i've mined about 0,7 BTC (or so) in ~20h with my ATI HD6950, then sold coins for about few bucks^^

Also, I tried to trade BTC, but it was the top of the first bubble (BTC = 30$ Cheesy ).
When it crashes I dropped everything related to cryptos, untill november 2013.

I started about three years back, in about two weeks it'll be my third anniversary since taking the plunge and joining the Bitcoin community. As a whole it has been a rather interesting experience, with a lot of ups and downs and in particular wisdom gained about humanity (which has in turn led to cynicism). Hope the next three years will be a little better! Smiley

I started visiting faucets when the price jumped up to $30USD. I thought "Woah! I'm gonna wait for the price to come down from this bubble before I buy up big." I'm still waiting for that ol' bubble to burst so I can buy up big.

we may be in for a bit more pf a wait... best hope would be the gov bans it, then buy while they figure out they cannot ban it.

I don't know if that will happen, best case scenario for the downside buy op.

Or maybe it will fail.

Binary proposition.
