Play Games for Bitcoins

If you like minecraft you can earn some bitcoin with playing it.

2 servers for doing that:
Minecraftcc.com
Earn per broken and placed block. Some satoshi per block depending on the type. Max payout of 0.01 btc per week to your normal wallet.

Bitquest.co
Earn 1 bit per emerald. Emeralds are not just in the ground like normal, but can also be obtained by killing monsters and trading to players.

Both servers are mostly vanilla with minor adjustments.




Offering Escrow Service

Really hard thing to do on this forum, you need to be really trusted to be able to do it and you will not earn incredible amounts of money



LEND BITCOINS


You can lend Bitcoins to other people if you have a good amount, remember to always and i mean ALWAYS require a collateral and use a trusted escrow, this can be actually pretty profitable.


Help me with this article by adding more ways or sites that are good

Faucets and games or (gambling) are all way's I would consider to be horrrible on making money.

Selling goods or services yes very good way to make money.  Especially if you have a skill.  Selling signature also good way as you would post anyways.   So money for something you would do anyways.

So i agree with some faucets are just to small on payment.  Never worth it.

Thats why i didnt even mention gambling because its way too risky at least on faucets you get your money guaranteed even if its really low

I've recently mentioned my advices how to make Bitcoins easily on another newbie question. The best way is still to offer services like translations, writing wiki posts, promotion and marketing activities, programming stuff, etc. The most of those jobs are not offered on bitcointalk. You need to go to the corresponding altcoin boards where they are offered. Usually you got paid in altcoins but you can easily exchange them into Bitcoins.

you can adds

escrow service(if you are good and very trusted, with a 1% you can earn a lot

selling good/digital goods here on bitcointalk, can be very remunerative

I don't think anyone can participate in an escrow service unless he/she has been here for a long time and is a proven trusted member of this community. Well, there are escrow services that offers their service for free. People can still look into those. One does not simply provide escrow services; trust from the community is necessary.

It is a hard game to get into.  I won't mention names but I have seen one break into it that was wanting to.  But for most part the older escrows are who are normally wanted and used.

yeah i know it's hard, but it is very remunerative if you are trusted enough, to speed up your acceptance, besides boosting your activity first and your trust, you can do an escrow that include altcoin too or offer other services(like various items ecc...)

Not really very remunerative at all, ive seen escrows with 1% fee wich is definitely not a lot, nonetheles i added it to the list aswell as lending bitcoins. Thanks!

Not really, it's more of like saving the buyer from complications that might arise throughout the deal. After all, I haven't seen any escrows here in bitcointalk that offers their service for a high fee. Some of them even do it for free.

Most of the methods discussed by OP are not very good. Faucets are good but where is the BTC? They give Satoshis!

Gaming also don't feel right because of the rigged system. Forum posting takes a longer time to reach.........

Sadly only remains are tasks.

you could make bitcoin by doing surveys.

Other Jobs for bitcoins

Let's not forget the new entry, http://xbtfreelancer.com

It's a freelancers platform, where you can pay and get paid by doing freelance jobs.

I really like this site, already used it and got paid.

I dont know what the fuck are you talking about, ive never mentioned anything about gaming, faucets is only 1 of the methods. Forum posting is definitely one of the best things to get bitcoins, there is people that easily can get 0.2 per month just by posting probably even more depending on your rank.

I think hes confused by: "Games and rounds

In the Games and rounds section (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=71.0) You can find plenty of promotions and giveaways and you can potentially earn a lot of money if you are lucky, just check it 2 or 3 times a day to find new giveaways and participate in all of them."

At first I though you meant gambling.  Later I realized it was not, but if you read quick someone might think games = gambling.  I bet that is what happened.

Really there is no easy way out. The way to make Bitcoin is exactly the way to make FIAT: Offering something that people want. Other than that they are just small bonus, which are nice but are just that, small bonuses (this includes sig campaings).

Nice List :) dont forget you can sell your skill in service section, and sell goods in goods section.
dont forget to add this links:
https://coinality.com/
https://www.freelancer.co.uk/jobs/bitcoin/
and fivver(accept bitcoin too).


~iki

there is one guy really trusted that is charging 1%, and if you see is trust, and risked btc, he gained a lot in one year, around 50 btc at least

A new way is to sell avatar space.  I only did partial to leave some of it for my own picking.   I predict this becomes more popular.

Id say avoid faucets unless you got a bot they used to pay out very well ohh the good old days but the rest seems okay.

Having some kinda skill coming on this site always helps but there are plenty of bounties and giveaways.

I jumped on boat and sold avatar.  All went smooth.  The neat thing is I sold part so can still have what i want on 3/4th of it.  Good for both parties.     

And I agree faucets are just horrible a few cents a hour/day.  I stick with only one who wins on faucets is owner's/referrals. This beginner forum has more and more faucet rotators a few times a week trying to get people to do faucets on their site.

Those things are already mentioned in the post, please avoid posting the same thing over and over again, joining sig as a newbie is not that bad at all. And please stop saying faucets are a bad way of earning bitcoins, its clearly mentioned that you wont earn much.

Hi, how does the avatar thing work? I can't find anything about it on the official Bit-X.com thread. Do they pay you an extra for offering the avatar space? I would like to know more.

You won't find it in the official thread but it's in the services section earlier, but I can't seem to find it even in my post history (maybe it was deleted, I don't exactly know). The avatar and personal message campaign is only limited to a number of users here, and you know that you get accepted if the campaign manager, marcotheminer, pm'd you and offers you something regarding the campaign. I don't think that the Bit-x avatar campaign will be available for all users in this month, because marco already paid us upfront for 2 months, which I think is a period of time he wants to test if this advertising strategy will really work.

Great post !

I don't see other thing that you can add, so, man, this is a very good post for the newbie which is enrolled from few days :)

You can check the link in the op for the other avatar campaign i think they pay pretty well anyways the avatar campaigns are new and probably soon there is gonna be more of them, dadice avatar campaign will probably start soon

I like your article but faucet is not the good way to earn Bitcoin, with the faucet if you're a good player you can earn something like mBTC or 0.01, but not more.

take a look at http://grindabuck.com as they award in bitcoin for doing surveys, email submissions, videos, radios etc. We have 7 people on the site that has earned the highest loyalty level. Grindabuck has awarded $10K mostly paid out in bitcoin on the site and there are a few that have been awarded over $400 in bitcoin over a months time.

Try it, you may like it. earn a freaky lot quicker than bitcoin faucets. there is a step by step guide on the site that gives you directions how you make your first $10 bucks in a day = paid in bitcoin.

NOTE: You can cash out when you earn 1000 grindabucks = 10 bucks. just for signing up, you get started with 100 grindabucks which is worth a dollar and in my estimate, that is a heck a lot more than a satoshi.

i know 2 more
https://www.reddit.com/r/DoItForTheCoin (sometimes you can find good stuff there)
http://work4crypto.com/ (mostly pays in Doge)

Hey OP, you did a great work as many newbies ask the same questions again and again...
I suggest you consider trying faucet rotators too, there are many claiming to earn you up to BTC0.005 per day...

Well yeah, i know about the rotators, some even claim you can make 0.001/hour but ive tried them and you dont make more than 20-30k per hour if you are lucky you might make 0.001 once and unless you spend the whole day on faucets you wont make that much money. 

Pd: i will update op with the new sites

Check the link below, this guy claims we can make up to BTC0.008 per day with more than 500 faucets in his rotator...
It seems a bit legit to me, don't know much though...
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1045998 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1045998)

But he says his faucet makes 50k per hour, it would take you 16 hours to earn 0.008 and of course you could earn 0.01 bitcoins even if you spend your whole day on it but as i said faucets are good for starters and newbies but nothing more

I only shared it because I have seen people saying that faucets are shit and nothing more, you can't make anything with them and they are just a waste of time...

Happy to see that you admit that it's at least good, whether for starters or for anyone who is interested in doing it... :)

If you compare the amount of time spent of faucet compared to almost any job it does not equal.  I will not say it's a total waste.  But you are better off doing a job and buying BTC.  Faucet make you small amount's and lots of time.

Also it going to add up and you will have a lot of dust in your wallet.

If you like minecraft you can earn some bitcoin with playing it.

2 servers for doing that:
Minecraftcc.com
Earn per broken and placed block. Some satoshi per block depending on the type. Max payout of 0.01 btc per week to your normal wallet.

Bitquest.co
Earn 1 bit per emerald. Emeralds are not just in the ground like normal, but can also be obtained by killing monsters and trading to players.

Both servers are mostly vanilla with minor adjustments.

the payout seems too low, 0.01 per week mean about 0.0015 a day as a maximum payout

and why there is a maximum, shouldn't be based on time? the more i play the more i get, there should not be a limit

how many hours you need to play to get that amount, because by how it looks, multiple faucets rotator seems better

Hey.. these method you posted is OK, but not GREAT.  ;D

The best method is hard work and selling your goods or skills for BTC. This forum has a nice place to do both ---> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=5.0

I also got into trading a while ago, and I quite like 1Broker  ;D

Just stay away from Cloud mining & Ponzi's ... On many of those, you will loose 90% of the times.  :(

Well the title clearly states that this are methods of getting money without spending money, there are not great ways of doing that obviously. Trading is hard, really hard, you need a good amount of money to even be able to make some small profit. These are still good ways to earn some btc.

By the way, faucets are made, or supposed to be made for new people to try bitcoins, some of them even state that in their FAQ.

Yea its low, but if you already enjoy playing minecraft, its a nice addition.
And bitquest doesnt have a max.

I added the: Play games for bitcoins. Section, thank you for the idea, i didnt remember to add it at first because i dont know many games that pay in bitcoins but i know there are some.

There is a strategy game of some sort that pays in bitcoins but i dont remember the name, if someone knows i would add it.
