looking at the threads created here i think the first thing they think about is sig campaigns and how to earn x amount within a day.

I would hope that is not true.   It was personally mining for me.  I started during end of GPU day's.   It was nice as I could try it with a computer I had at the time with two cards.

But I was on here and within a few weeks set up my first true open air rig. Was a very fun time.  The downside is GPU's were very much a babysitting game.  And once you got big enough seemed you always had a RMA if you were pushing the intensity.

The asics now day's the sit and forget is something that is very very nice.  Sure there is problems sometimes but no where near the GPU farm babysitting level.

I find it crazy to use online BTC gambling.  There is nothing as far a regulatory body like most normal casinos. They could change their odds very easy.  

Let's say owner needs some cash nothing is there stopping him from making people lose a lot more.  Most btc casinos are trying to doge laws to be able to be used in countries it should not be offered to from them.  So is that the type of people you want to trust with your money?  I sure dont.

It's a trade off.   With bitcoin gambling you have provably fair sites, which obviously doesn't stop anyone from running off with money.   On the other hand you have some real casinos which greatly manipulate the odds where possible.

For me it is all about the trading.  I do not mine but have tried some alt trading.

Mixed results for sure some were good profit.  And I will admit others I missed the mark.   Guess we will see over time if I make it.

I'm here from 2013 but don't participate in forum much, but more or less just reading.
I like the bitcoin concept about decentralization. It can become big, really big someday.

Then you are in the right place and the wrong crowd. ^Joke^ In the beginning I also thought Bitcoin was a NerdCoin but my opinion changed when I met a few of these people in meetup's. There are a lot of hunks and jock's and cheerleaders amongst them too. Bitcoin has become so widely adopted now, that people from all walks of life is using it now.

Everyone visit here should be learn about how bitcoin works. If there's some problem, that's why this forum is being create because we can share our thought to give a better solution.

A mixture of all of them I should think, you could ask the same question to all of us even 2010/11 Legendary members.
I guess primarily we're all here to try & make a load of money.
That was the reason I was drawn into bitcoin any way, I mean the technology is pioneering, Satoshi is a genius but my main reason for entering the world of bitcoin is/was making money.
I think that goes for all of us, anybody that says different is probably a liar.

I've been sold on how brilliant this technology is (or at least it's potential) and visit this place to keep up with what's going on. I'm hoping to jump aboard the gravy train. It seems I have gotten aboard but all the seats are taken, and I've been anticipating another hundred carriages are going to be added so that I can grab my seat, but I'm starting to doubt it will happen now.

I trade a little. I've found only small profits so far, but profit is profit.

I only started learning about it about a year ago.

I was mostly taken by the romantics of the Bitcoin story and wanted to get involved in whatever minor fashion I could. I feel like I spent way too much of my adult life with my eyes glued to my feet, not paying attention to the emerging technologies that may soon affect our lives in both subtle and ginormous ways.

When my friend and I decided we wanted to play our (less-than-technically-adept) part in encouraging adoption and started making promotional tees for Bitcoin, we figured Bitcointalk was the best place to learn all we could and meet the community of people we wanted to serve.
