I first got introduced to the world of cryptocurrency through airdrops, and after a while I got a token and exchanged it. And I received USDT in exchange for my airdrop coins, and there I got a payment again. And when that payment came, I went to the exchange and there were more options in the USDT space and there I saw the BTC symbol.
And then I didn't know what Bitcoin was, and gradually I started doing more airdrops and I also developed an interest in learning about Bitcoin. So that's how I learned about Bitcoin and through this community I clearly gained knowledge about Bitcoin.

I first heard about Bitcoin back in 2018 from a friend. At first, I was skeptical, but after doing some research on blockchain technology, I realized its potential. In fact, I spent some time working as a crypto media journalist. Now I'm focusing on new projects, but I’ve always wanted to join the discussions here. Happy to finally be part of the community!

Wow that great that absolutely a long journey and I hope all this journey didn’t go on waste hope you have some understanding and knowledge of cryptocurrency. Sorry you being a crypto journalist that explains it more that you do have knowledge about crypto.
Hope the journey so far wasn’t that complicated or difficult to understand and if it was then that just how the process is meant to be lol. Once more welcome you to the community and your journey on crypto has now been made easier and understandable with the help of many users here willing to show you the way.

Crypto journalists, the ones who spread rumors about Bitcoin or the ones who try to correct the misleading narrative about Bitcoin online, whichever one you were back then, you might have somehow contributed to the growth of Bitcoin's popularity. Welcome to the forum, which is one of the oldest Bitcoin forums in history where the idea was really discussed by the founder.

I first heard about Bitcoin a few years back, while I did not have a computer or other source to check this and learn about this, but my passion increased because a few fellows had done well with this and had profit; even though this was not easy to check and engage with, after some time I entered, and this works for me now. I am feeling great.

Good thing I am using just Bitcoin and never have any other token or coin, but sometimes I use USDT for exchange. Now I am expecting to have this Bitcoin for the long term while also giving enough knowledge to kids because they need to understand early about this.

Ponzi scheme called MMM was the first time I heard about Bitcoin, then the internet thought me the rest, I started testing bitcoin myself, sending from one wallet to another just to confirm that it's working, I also start farming faucets and Airdrops too, 2016 was a eye opener year for me.

I lost some bitcoin and I sold some, what I couldn't figure out very quickly was the potential of bitcoin for the future, I had good opportunities at the time, but I don't have enough capacity to do as I really wanted, but still I have a good life today because Bitcoin was created by Satoshi, it's a big win for me.

I started looking into bitcoin far back in 2019, I saw someone already driving a corrolla and leaving a lifestyle. I was very interested and I don’t know how to start. I gave money to someone a called a friend and he scammed me, ever since then my bitcoin journey has been easy at all.

Although I have not been on this forum for a long time, when I first heard the name of Bitcoin, I had a lot of feelings inside me that are hard to explain. Basically, I watched some news and saw people discussing Bitcoin in X which inspired me. Gradually, I entered this forum and later I was able to gain a lot of spiritual knowledge about Bitcoin and by coming here I was able to gain a lot of knowledge about the virtual world. When I first invested in Bitcoin, I had only $50, then the price of Bitcoin was like $18,000. At that time, if I could not keep the Bitcoin I invested with my few dollars for a long time, after the price increased a little, I sold them for some profit. However, many people have become familiar with science in many ways. I came to know about Bitcoin from a relative from my area.

There are various ways to learn about Bitcoin and some of the national media in our country almost publish many reports about Bitcoin and I came to know about Bitcoin through such reports. When I learned about Bitcoin, the price of Bitcoin was very low and at that time I did not really understand much about investing here, I only knew that there was a digital currency called Bitcoin. However, later, after researching Bitcoin online, many things became clear to me. From the time I started researching Bitcoin, I did not think about investing, but after a long time, when the price of Bitcoin suddenly increased a lot and when the media in my country published a report about Bitcoin again, I saw the price of Bitcoin at that time and the price at that time when I started researching Bitcoin and the difference between these two prices was big and then I thought that if I had invested in Bitcoin then maybe I could have made a good profit.

I have been hearing about bitcoin from different sources that I barely remember where I first heard about it but then I had friends who were more knowledgeable about bitcoin than myself and they usually mention bitcoin and not until I was referred to this forum before I understood what bitcoin really was with an in depth knowledge. So thanks to the and the person who referred me here. To those who their first encounter with bitcoin was from ponzi please accept my sympathy. I know how it feel to work your ass off and someone just steals th3 money all because you had the intention of increase that money with investment.

I came to know about Bitcoin through my office colleague who used to buy and hold Bitcoins. He is the who also told me what Bitcoin is and how can we buy and sell it. Al tough he gave me necessary info about Bitcoin but it was my own decision to invest in Bitcoin and I will remain thankful to that guy for rest of my life for introducing me to Bitcoin because that changed the world for me. Today I can proudly say that Bitcoin has helped me in improving my financial standard which was not possible otherwise.

My first experience with Bitcoin was through this forum. Though I have heard about bitcoin but I don't really know understand what it was . So I always thought it was only the wealthy people can be able to afford bitcoin. It was until I came to this forum that was when I thoroughly understand what bitcoin is and my first bitcoin was through signature campaign.
