Tis the Season for Storytelling

[coinminerdotcom]

Having been in the mining business since 2013, I'm interested to hear your mining stories on when you got into the game. Even though we are in a time of mining hardships, tis the season to recollect on some of the fonder times.  When did you purchase your Antminer S5-S9 miner or L3+/+? Were you lucky enough to get your S9 for $2k before the hike to $5k per miner or catch it on the downtrend? Was it FoMo in the bullish market that caused you to jump on the wagon, were you able to get on board before the market took off, or when it was bearish prepping for the next hike?

It's always fun to hear where everyone jumped on board.

Happy Holidays!

To be honest I lost money in mining as it didn't went in my way like expectation's were something different but in reality it was a real horrible experience when I started mining it was in bearish mode that's the saddest part of this.

season for story telling? for bitcoin stories to go down or at the end of the year we can't get anything I think it doesn't need to be told it's better that we think and act because telling stories is a waste of time

My first interaction with bitcoin was in 2012, at that time i was still a teenager. i thought it was really cool and looked into it for a bit, but my mind was more occupied with girls and games I didn't know how to buy nor did i really had funds to buy it. Because hey partying and buying video games was more meaningful at that time than savings up some cash (we have all been there haha). Few years later in 2015 i heard a friend of mine had become quite rich with the crypto market. at that point i was like oh shit did i miss the opportunity of a lifetime? after long hours of research and lots of discussion about bitcoin with my friend i became a true cryptobeliever and saw the potentional benefits of it. My first buys didnt really go that smooth since i knew alot about the tech but not so much about ''investing'' on its own since i am just 24 right now and most people of my age don't even think about investing still to this day. So i can tell u it was quite a bumpy road, bought in at a bull market and saw the prices plummet. although im quite the risk taker in life it did had me panic quite a bit but i eased my mind and thought about the future and what cryptos could mean for us. I took a heavy loss and after that i became a true HODLer but with a strategie not just park and leave. 2017 was mind blowing and it all went to fast in my opinion i sold most of my holdings in december and have been buying back bit by bit this last 11 months. best choice ever in my opinion. thats why i like to be a strategic HODLer. I consider myself still a newbie in the cryptosphere especially with investing. But i do know i my enthusiasm for this game will never leave and i keep learning new stuff day in day out. Not just crypto the whole investingsphere has my attention since i came in touch with bitcoin:)

jumping for a moment from adversity is better than surviving a loss, and I think there is no season to tell about mining because it is a risk that must be learned

I was not lucky to be among the early adopters who were abke to mine out bitcoins out of nothing at a low difficulty level amd highest reward range. Or I should say I was not 'aware'. Awareness of is what makes people open to opportunities others would have passed on.

Fast forward to Q4 2017, when the hype sets in, this is the time I got really involved with bitcoins, I didn't see the effect mining had on the market value up until early 2018 through to this point.
It the parameter I study most now when analysing the reason for pumps and dumps.

season for storytelling, maybe this is because bitcoin is not good, and a lot of them are desperate because of a situation like this, and from good stories about bitcoin will definitely increase their enthusiasm to believe bitcoin still exists
