Anyone else feel like one of the bitcoin losers? We hear a lot about all the winners, now including some 15 year old child, but very little on the currency's losers. I got swept up in the mania last November and dared to invest my life saving into purchasing 1 bitcoin, just as it was near peak. That turned out to be a terrible purchase for me as the value dropped since, so bitcoin has only ever lost me money. Anyone else in my boots? I'd still like more bitcoins but going on my past 6 months my confidence and trust in this new currency has been shattered. Cry

Seriously, people like you shouldn't invest. EVER. IN ANYTHING.
You put money you really need in an asset that is highly speculative.
Now, you cry, because you are not a millionaire after 6 months.

6 months are nothing for an investment.

Where did I ask to be a millionaire? There was a lot of hype at the end of last year and I invested for my families future not to be some sort of spiv.

I was in the same position, I didn't ask to be a millionare but in 2011 when they were $14 I should have bought at least one or two. I didn't have the resources then and I don't now. The only way to get them now is through sig campaigns and getting lucky. I do feel like a loser.

you couldnt scrape together $14 Huh
