One thing that kind of drives me crazy is I don't remember exactly when or how I discovered bitcoin.  I know that it was either late 2013 or early 2014, but I can't specifically remember when or how.  I have a few email records from late 2014 which prove that I knew of bitcoin from back then, but they do not provide any clues as to how I discovered it.

So how about you, when and how did you discover bitcoin? What were your initial thoughts?  Did you think negatively of it at first discovery and change your mind, or did you always think it was a great idea?

That is a long time ago. But you have not told us how you discovered it, you only told us when you discovered it but yet it is not certain.  The how is still missing so we are also still waiting for the how. Discovering bitcoin is not an easy as task for me. Remember there is different between DISCOVERED something and KNOWN something. To Discover something means, you have to make research and found out new things for the first time. Satoshi Discovered Bitcoin in October 13, 2008. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wsj.com/amp/articles/who-is-bitcoin-creator-satoshi-nakamoto-what-we-knowand-dont-know-11638020231 so you have not Discovered bitcoin but you have known bitcoin.

To KNOW something means, to understand, be awared of something. Although, they have similarities but they are different concepts. All the users of bitcoin are the category of knowing not Discovered.
As for me, I have not even known bitcoin. I am still struggling to know Bitcoin but I have heard the name but not yet know. I am still learning to know. And I am eager to learn and know it.

I heard about bitcoin in the year 2015 in a seminar. How did I hear it. It was from a seminar that I attended and the instructor said, it is an online investment platform that grows you capital by Trading.
