There already have been quite a few bad moments with bitcoins so far that made me question my strategy with crypto currencies. First of all was a big step for me to decide and only deal with Bitcoins back in 2016 for my CSGO skin trading business. I was buying and selling a lot of knives back in the days and bitcoin was a good and fast way to cash out and deposit new money. By using Bitcoins I could buy skins my cheaper than the official steam prices and then use the real prices to trade for more favourable skins. When I took a break from CSGO I also sold all my bitcoins and stopped using crypto currencies all together.
I had something similar, there was a website where you could sell gaming stuff, and I sold accounts, not counter strike, it was an online mmorpg where I sold my character and I earned bitcoins with it, this was so long ago that I got a few bitcoins in return, but it was easy step and you could sell to anyone in the whole world which made it great for me, I disliked using paypal for the fact that buyer could have asked for his money back, and I would be out both my account and my money, so I used bitcoin instead. Since those days I have been here, for nearly 10 years and so far it has nothing but best for me, had some down days, but overall it has been amazing.
