What are your struggles in earning bitcoins? Ex. Got scammed / Spent a week earning bitcoins through faucets with a little payment
etc.

good tactic would be to use the facebook faucets

then get them closed down by FB for non payment

act like your running a business and treat every

FB faucet like its also a business, which they

technically are

My struggles in earning in bitcoin is got scammed.all my earning since im newbie they promise to me that they can double my money easily in just weeks. So Im newbie that time i dont know what is hyip and scam. I know only is to earn bitcoin in faucet and some task that  my friend gave to me. And then after a month i knew that they scam me il pm in their facebook account but they seen it. And i post their faces and then my friend says that the owner of the picture is scammer of Bitcoin its almost 0.025 bitcoin. And I stopped in bitcoin earning. And last month i continue my bitcoin earning and then finally i know how to earn here easily than Bitcoin faucet now i can earn 0.003 daily. Just sharing.

It can be a struggle sometimes to earn some Bitcoins because the prise can be stable sometimes and that prevents people to make money on Bitcoin.

at the first time I earned bitcoin, I have to click many faucets a day, but I no longer do such thing.

now I need to make post about 50 a week, but it's difficult because the thing is I no longer have time to make posts.

Faucet's are a waste of time. I earn my BitCoin legit ways, like working hard for it or selling something of mine. That's how it works. Don't do gambling sites, don't use faucets, or go to Ponzi schemes. It's all just a waste.

The struggle faced often in the earning of bitcoin is the difficulty experienced in getting enrolled into signature campaign. The next is the faucets, which don't pay good for the time we have spent on it.

The biggest struggle is getting jobs paid in Bitcoin... That aren't all that many and those that exist aren't really for my set of skills.

You know, faucets can be your lucky ticket, if you concentrate on the referral side and you grow it aggressively or it can be a total bust and a waste of time. The strategy with faucets are not to solve 10 000 000

Captha's and hoping to become a millionaire... but rather choosing a faucet that pay for referrals, and then building a massive network of people, who use that faucet daily and then getting passive income from

that. I did a experiment once, and only introduced 100 people to a 10 faucets with a referral network... in the end, I sat back and I received weekly passive income from these people using these faucets. The

income was very low, but it paid for a few coffee's and I did nothing to get that income.. just told people about it and gave them my referral link.  ;D

I started with faucets and used them quite a bit at first.  They're fun but I always knew they were a time-waster.  Bitcoin faucets were always more bloated than the altcoin ones, so I would mostly do the doge and dash faucetbox thingees. 

Been scammed, probably by a bought account here.  It was Timsweat, who had green trust at the time.  I got taken for 0.3btc, but I should have gotten collateral.   So many shady people on this forum.

the main thing that pisses me off is when i'm in a good operation, with a good profit, and a whale puts a 500btc buy/sell wall and gets me rekt. thats a harsh pill to swallow.

Well then just convert part of your fiat earnings to Bitcoin.
Buy constatly, each month a bit for instance.It doesn't have to be much.And beside your sig campaign you could end with a nice amount at the end of the year.
I'm myself not very skilled in programing or designing user interfaces etc.
So I just try to earn some cash beside regular job and try accumulate constantly, a bit here, a bit there.
Many a little makes a mickle over the long run. :)

Faucet are just waste of time its better you try doing bitcoin or altcoiin trading (if you have low budget). But better you buy bitcoin first and learn trading with small amount. Good luck

I got scammed by some faucets that wouldn't pay out until you earned a minimum amount. The minimum was impossible to earn even if you worked every day for a month on them. The other type of faucets pay out tiny amounts but they do pay out. However IMO even those are a waste of time because you earn so little.

My struggles in earnings bircoin is high transaction fee and much time for one confirmation.

I am using a number of different ways to earn bitcoins, like I am earning bitcoins from my signature campaign from LuckyBTCcasino, which has a very good rates for its members, and with that I am earning a large amount of bitcoins from my website, and in the past I was working on faucets also, but now I am a faucet designer and create faucets for getting pay etc.

My main problem is this current price increase in btc, because I use to withdraw my earnings from forex trading via bitcoin, but my earnings are actually in dollars, but this expensive price prevent me from withdraw more bitcoins and every day I earn less of them.  :-[

Well for me my main struggle in earning bitcoins is when I am busy and cannot do what I do to earn bitcoins.  ;D

My main problem has been exchanges going bust and losing coins. I'm usually careful about not leaving much on an exchange, but you still need to keep something on them in order to trade. So far I've lost from Mintpal going bust and Cryptsy. Cryptsy is in administration and in theory they should repay a portion of the coins back, but who knows how long that will take.

When you're a newbie, you always rely on faucets just like me but a few days ago after joining this site I realized that It's a waste of time.

there is no major struggle for earning btc for me. i just keep moving on with whatever work i get to earn btc. i dont take it serious to earn btc. it is just another part time money for me.

Before i knew this forum , i claiming faucet around like crazy . And got 30k satoshi/day.
And i know this forum , glad i joined in here.  ;D
When i tried all method to earn bitcoin ,i am  never got scammed, so lucky yeah  ;D

With the halving coming soon it is going to get harder to earn coins so you will have to earn coins now of you have the money and the chance to do so. After the halving earning Bitcoins is going to e 4 times as hard.

just wanna share mine mate, i was scammed before after joining mmm a big ponzi system who promise to give 30 percent of your investment in just two week i invested almost 0.2btc that time when everything turn out to be a scammed luckily after i have been scam i found about btctalk forum while searching from the web about bitcoin investment so it turns out that I already regained the amount of my money that has been scam by mmm by joining and doin simple task here mate.

Not any struggle. I simply buy those when think that need some and do what I want to do. Normally I buy bitcoin because have need to invest those and because think that have bitcoin worth in time (the price of bitcoin will increase in time; this is my conviction). It is true that I got scammed during my investments or have spent time with faucets but ultimately have forgotten both these ways of spent of bitcoin. My investments are much more based and faucet are only spent of time.

my bitcoin earning struggle was full of lost and failures.
I've started earning bitcoin from faucets just like all other, I used faucet for almost 6 months, and earned only 3 or 4 dollars, then I realized it is just a wast of time and I can't even get my Internet bill from faucets, then I left faucets and invest my all earning on a cloudming and a bitcoin doubler, and got scammed, so my total 6 months earning lost (they was only equal to 5$, lolzz) and then I just quite using bitcoin, after one year I got a friend on facebook who is a bitcoin related blog and faucet owner, he gift me a ready made faucet and I invest some coins to it. (I've invest there from my out of bitcoin earning) I've invest the faucet constantly for one month and got nothing from ads, but that time I joined the bitcointalk for promoting my faucet,. and from there my success start in bitcoin journey.
this forum gives me lots, knowledge, experience, and lots of earning ways and Technics, I learnt trading from here, I got signature campaigns, and finally  now I can earn 10$ to 15$ day,.

that's all.

My struggle is to constantly monitor and predict market. The biggest shock was when my funds were stolen from btc-e and they said we can't do anything.

Your story proves that you can't really learn bitcoin for free. Faucets are total waste of time, same with any kind of PTC sites, referalls and other hit or miss 'jobs'.
Bitcoin is not some internet curiousity anymore and you won't get any BTC for free when 1 BTC is worth more than $500 alredy.
And I think it is easy to say that only signature campaigns could give you some profit - at least to the point that your time spent on writing posts and interacting with the community doesn't seem wasted.

My struggles in earming bitcoin is full of scams and losses bitcoin. And failure in trading and many more failure in bitcoin earnings. My earning got scammed thats my earning since im newbie in bitcoin i earned that in many hyips like doubler site. And someone invite me to join in their facebook groups they invite me to invest in their mining rig and then i deposit my all earnings. And they always online they have picture  of they bought mining rig. And im feeling safe necause they update always and then suddenly my friends didnt reply to me, they blocked me in facebook. So in that case i knew that they scammed me. And my failure in trading is buy some TAM in Pump price and selling it in dump price.

My struggles in earning bitcoin is i got scammed in investment and that money was originally for the tuition fee of my daughter.. it takes alot of time before i earned again that amount. now im striving and careful not to trust easily again.

Me too i got scammed many times in mining sites
but now i learned on my fast im very careful on investing my bitcoin.
and i invest in trading site to double my bitcoin fast.

Claiming in faucets for sure,it was ok when i started cause i was an unexperienced newbie who was still learning and i was not expecting to earn a decent amount of bitcoins from faucets only,later i realized it was a total waste of time.
But i still use some faucets only cause i am able to get a lot of referrals,the amount i earn is not so much ofcourse but since this income is passive it is more than welcome  :)

my struggles in earning bitcoin is when i was beginer earned some bitcoin from faucet, i thought i could earn up to 1 bitcoin monthly, but the reality was not, got scammed also, mostly from mining simulation game, too many bad story when i was earned bitcoin, but now seems like it's more easy to earn bitcoin, trading , offering skils, or do something cool and get paid with bitcoin.

For nowadays maybe i can grateful for my job in bitcoin, because i can earn bitcoin from signatures campaign and the payment of my signatures campaign is decent amount. Even that is including big amount for signatures campaign. But when i am newbie i feel how hard looking for bitcoin, i ever try get bitcoin from faucet and it can take more than one week to get 100.000 satoshi. Exhausted and bored i still struggle to collect bitcoin.

my struggle when getting bitcoin, playing faucet for 2 weeks and only get 10k satoshi.
and other things when I can get a large amount, I am investing in hyip and got scammed just a few hours. and it hurts, because I have collected long enough :'(

The main struggle in what concerns making bitcoins are related to the fact that I came late do mining, faucets don't give much and investing in bitcoins are a risky business. Finally we can gamble with bitcoins and that is more entertaining and can make us earn some. ;)

to get a free bitcoin indeed is very difficult and it requires hard work so great. I get my bitcoin most of trading and investment. That's the most I liked because it gives a positive effect for the life of me.

I don't know if I'd laugh or frown from this experience of yours. There are plenty of us who started with faucets that gave satoshis regularly. It really takes a while to accumulate them and it's just frustrating that it sometimes goes to waste. Right now, the struggle I have is finding a good price to buy. Since the price has jumped from $440 to past $570, I have not been able to buy, even just a few fractions.

my only struggle has been with mining over the years. I have
never really seen ROI. Obviously as bitcoin rises (hopefully) then
roi will be achieved but would of had more bitcoins just buying it instead
of buying miners and paying high electricity bills.

The scammers ithink cause they victimized me in their scamming teqniques. And i accidentaly sent 0.01 to a wrong wallet address. Im earning more in this signature campaign thats why i keep earning bitcoins

I started my struggling period with faucets, when i was doing a capchar, in that time, my earning was very little, because they gave very low amount of satoshi, near about 100 satoshi per capchar, so i was not satisfied with it, than i started to search about the bitcoins, and i found the signature campaign, i join the bitcointalk, and that all are surprise for me, i was starting the work and then i earn a good bitcoins, so i decided i never and ever left the bitcointalk in future.     

The best thing that you can have is indeed a signature campaign and that is really nice because it will be really hard to know what will happen later.
And you can even see now indeed that the value of Bitcoin is rising slowly so that is nice and many people wants now around this time more Bitcoin.

my struggles to earn bitcoin was only in the beginning, when i started using bitcoin. the more you stick around and search for ways and educate yourself the more ways you find and the easier it gets to make bitcoin online.
you only need patience.

I had struggles before with bitcoin faucets. I thought I am going to earn a living from doing it. Even until now I have some. :)

When bitcoin increase , it's getting rare to get bitcoin through faucet.
Also I'm experience loss when I gamble to get some prize but it feel not worth when bitcoin value is high like now

The bottomline is that money is really difficult to earn even if it's physical or crypto currency  ;D

With the halving coming it will be allot harder then before to try and earn Bitcoins so it will be a struggle from now on. Mining is now becoming useless so you can now invest in them that is becoming the best way.

Right, my first struggles are earning BTC from the faucet with a very very low bitcoin I earn it. Well , to evade from scammer it's become my special struggles,many scammers in bitcoin is hang around.

Yeah, doing faucets like online gaming’s and captcha clear is like waste of time and it will make you think that BTC is high value but its hard to earn. So you can better go for posting in this forum and get experienced on this. Slowly you can reach to some rank and get in to campaign as well to fill your pocket.

When I first was learning about bitcoin, I did faucets, crowdflower and watched videos (there weren't any bitcoin captchas back then). After about two weeks of that BS struggle, I said F this, and went ahead and bought bitcoin through the now-defunct BitInstant. I can't imagine doing faucets and captchas or crowdflower-type work for any extended amount of time. If I had absolutely nothing else to do and had absolutely no other way of obtaining bitcoin - including not being able to get a sig campaign gig, then I guess you gotta do what you gotta do. Hats off to those who can do the faucet/captcha game all day long.

Faucets is definitely not the best idea to earn bitcoins.The struggle I personally face is lack of opportunities.But again,early bird gets the worm.Since not from the forum's standard time zone ,I miss out on a lot of opportunities.My main source for earning bitcoins is the forum right now through small tasks or programming.Maybe if more freelacing websites start allowing bitcoin payments,I can make a few more on weekly basis.

Worst struggle is earning my first few sets of satoshis. I've done a week of daily faucet claims, investing nearly 5 hours of claiming over 250 faucets a day. Believe me, I was really happy that I was getting satoshi but after a week and realizing I was only making at most a dollar a day with that much effort, I nearly gave up on bitcoins.

Dude are you even serious ? 250 faucets a day with only $1 ? You must be kidding.I did that frm maximum 3-4 faucets a day.Considering the prices of bitcoins were good enough,you could have easily made around 0.02+ each day only by faucets.Although I'm not sure which year you're reflecting here.

many ways is struggle if you're not invested single pennies for earning BTC .. why ?

- faucets is almost waste of time with only 25-100 satoshi per pay  :-X .. and also PTC's
- cloud mining is also waste of time and resources if you didnt invest ..even the recommended cloud mining like cldmine is dying now  :-X

but if you have faith and powerfull spirit you will earn some  ;D

at the moment, signature + mining it's better than buying, and better thna anything to accumulate bitcoin

if you have a good farm you can mine a lot in few days, the same with signature if you have many account

I have really tried earning through faucets and even i have invested in some hyip claiming that they are running few faucets and paying us via adnetwork payment but they scammed after 1 month and even earning from faucet are not big. After that i tried doing altcoin trading and it gave me real profit but also i find lots of losses in doing so. But what i have learned is that you have to be really patience to earn bitcoin.

My struggle is trying to keep some. I have been trying to hold at least 5 bitcoin, but I can't. I already had more than that but some of it I used to buy ether and other coins while the rest I spend it. Now I have less more than one and will need to sell to pay some debts... this way I'm guessing I will never have 5 bitcoins again :(

Faucets are for beginners, if you want to get more bitcoin either try to work for bitcoin, selling your skills or
Try your 'luck' investing in altcoins. It's very risky and if you are new to this business i would not recommend it.  because you may find your money gone if you don't watch out.

You can't really earn from faucets alone, mate. I have tried that back when faucets give out 0.01 max (and that was like 3 or 4 years ago). I just forgot the wallet and where had I store it. You can try joining a signature campaign as a start, or selling anything you can do for others which they find helpful to their ventures. You can also try trading or betting. There are a lot of options to choose from. You only need a lot of patience and perseverance.

My struggles to earn BITCOIN is by joining signature campaigne and faucet but for the faucet it is need too long time to earn BITCOIN  and I only earn very very small amount of BITCOIN every day, I prefer like to learn how to trading BITCOIN than concern on the faucet. But for begginer faucet is easy way to earn bitcoin.

Why struggle? Forget all this faucet shit. Do a sig campaign if you're going to post anyway. Sell some shit if you no longer want it. Other than that forget about it completely and earn your money in the wider world. You'll probably earn several hundred times more for the same amount of effort expended.

Yes sir I'm absolutely agree with you, my struggle  to earn  BITCOIN is from faucets when I'm a newbie this is the easies way that I know to earn BITCOIN but I only earn very very small amount of BITCOIN, but I'm joing the signature campaigne now and I think this will be good experience for me.

I got scammed by some hyip site that wouldn't pay out until you earned a minimum amount

my struggles spent my free time in gambling, made my 0.1 to 1.3 btc in a months but because i spent my free time gambling only, everything went out bad today, yes TODAY, i lose every bits i have :).

In my case my struggles for earning bitcoin in my newbie days is lacking of information about things and where can i get bitcoins cause my knowledge about it is totally zero and also i got always get scam by those shit hyips those days and now i learned lesson to look back again on it. and also even today i got struggles for people  whos envy and cannot do nothing just to bash what you do and discreminate things on my ways to earn bitcoin its totally stressfull if you dont do wrong to them and still they keep reporting and dragging you down and thats totally can decrease my earnings in bitcoin.

For now, my struggle in earning bitcoin is that I am still a newbie. Earn nothing posting here until I get to a member accout to earn something.

if you are struggling still, your option is to buy an old account maybe SR. member and join signature campaign, joined those twitter and avatar account if allowed.
make use of those mini earnings till you earn enough and then invest to some ICOs.

For me as  a student i already encountered too many struggles in my bitcoin career.First one is i cant manage bitcoin and studies at the same time.I also cant manage my time between bitcoin and school studies specially when there are examinations that needs to be reviewed.And last is lack of internet.

It took me a couple of failed HYIPs before I learned.  :(
After my last one, I realized that even if you do make money, your really just stealing from someone else.  :-[

My only struggle is the time that i have. Because it's hard to manage my time, i also have a job in real life and i earn some bitcoins too when i have free time.

it is always harder in the beginning and it will become easier once you get more familiar with methods of earning and using bitcoin.
but also it doesn't have to be hard if you think and search about what you are about to do. for example you only get scammed if you make a blind investment in something like a ponzi.

My struggles are i am afraid to invest at cloud-mining sites or investmenf sites even if they are trusted by many people because i think they can run away anytime they want once they reach their quota. It is hard to earn bitcoin and they are just going to scam us. I can't say spending a week in faucet is a struggle if your new in bitcoin because it is the most basic way to earn it.

Wuol

Many of the newbies are scammed by a HYIP sites like that, Just dont invest it in HYIPs it so risky in investing there actually ive got scammed by hyips but i dont invest anymore cause i know now that HYIPs are always turning into scam. Just try Gambling try your luck their or you can try signature campaign, earn without a investing, Just hardwork you will earn

good idea is to just stop wasting your time on faucets

the reward does not justify the time spent
you are too late to the party sorry

much better to just buy btc, whatever you can afford
and buy as often as possible

you are just wasting your time looking for free bitcoins these days

sometime, when i see someone that selling dice trick ,  i got interested and buy , but always end with dust , that is why i never earn much

people always have different story,and also have same story,we are same on scammed case,and its happen to many people,losing somuch money and so much time. spent manytime for bitcoin is our struggle. and also people struggole with their shame,loan money for bitcoins.

Then maybe you better stop buying some random dice trick that other users are selling so that you won't end up with dust? Instead, try to save your money and get a hold of yourself from buying such useless tricks that doesn't work 99.9% of the time.

Yes, I too fell into the trap of HYIP, and the cloud of mining. At that time I noticed that something was wrong, but the links to transaction have convinced me that it's all true. And I put a small amount, and of course lost it.

Until now, there are such sites, and still beginners in the world of Bitcoin fall for this trap.

Look like still many people fooled and get noob with gambling tricks,if you think clearly,youwill find why they sell that script,why dont they use it for make gambling site brooke?they should dont need money anymore if have gambling script.

this is my experience when I was a beginner, so it was a natural thing. most people would have experienced the same thing as me. because when it the price touched $1000, so when it also you will be hard to get bitcoin
