More than I have. Took a loan from the family.

Look inside yourself, and you will see that you are the bubble.

This poll needs options for over 100%

Concerned that blockchain bloat will lead to centralization? Storing less than 4 GB of data once required the budget of a superpower and a warehouse full of punched cards. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/87/IBM_card_storage.NARA.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_card

I was going to vote 50% but then I saw it was only in BTC not all of crypto.  Roll Eyes

Did you find my posts helpful? Did I say say something nice? Your generosity is much appreciate.

added an "over 100%" option.  Shocked  i guess could have made the poll to say "how much invested in Crypto" instead of BTC. but if you have other crypto just count that as BTC also.

The only thing I have invested was time.

All of my coins I have saved I mined myself.

But it wasn't my "savings" (retirement, etc). I started with my gaming PC, mined some coin, bought hardware and built rigs with said mined coins. Then bought some more rigs. Saved some coins for retirement (a lot), invested some coins in a business, sold some coins, and still have some spending coins left. Everything has paid itself off, and gave me a bright future.

All from a single ATI 5750 a few years back. Smiley

Nah, sold it years ago... All of my GPUs are 7950s now. Also have some ASICs hashing away (bitcoin), and getting weekly dividends from LabRatMining.

Invested a small amount, now it almost (did when the price was over $1.1k) makes up more than all my other assets combined...but I don't have a lot of assets, so it wasn't too hard to do.   Cheesy

Would have a lot more if it wasn't for Satoshi Dice and Gyft.com.

"How much ... is invested ... ?"  !=  "How much ... did you invest ... ?"
very important distinction

This poll needs options for over 100%

This poll also needs a 'less than 0%' for people who owe others bitcoins
