I first heard of it when I friend of mine said(jokingly) that he could get anyone assassinated for 6BTC on silk road. I asked what it was and he said that it was an online currency that nobody uses. I googled Bitcoin..I have not slept since.

How did you first hear about Bitcoin?
The first time i heard about bitcoin was from online news around 2013 which said there is someone who can make up to $10k from mining bitcoin, I think this is a huge income and I want earning like him. Then I googled a lot of articles about bitcoin and tried mining with 3 units of S5, unfortunately the income didn't match my expectations and I sold it again in 2015.
