Bitcoin Forum

I see a lot of people hard to find work, supposing they know bitcoin they would move to seek bitcoin, because now it's been worth the bitcoin.

What do you think about it, between a job and bitcoin for a future better?

if someone can not find a job in real world and with fiat payment, they will have more problem finding job with bitcoin, in my opinion.

but if someone can find it in real world with fiat, then bitcoin can be another job like a second job that you do online such as freelancing to earn some money on the side, of like me if you do some trading you can earn some extra money.

so yeah in that case it can help a bit.

I don't see why would someone drop his job for bitcoin ? I mean bitcoin is supposed to work as a currency , someone should keep his job and ask to get paid in BTC , If he can't then he simply get paid in fiat and buys bitcoin. If he stops working and getting cash , how he is supposed to get bitcoin from ? faucets lol ?
If we are speaking for long term investement then bitcoin is definitely something someone would want to hold over the next few years.

Well, Bitcoin can change people's life, if micro payment can be implemented cheaper. Imagine someone getting paid per minute. This was not

possible before, because the banking fees would have eliminated your gains. Bitcoin can also be used to pay for micro tasks globally, so wealth

transfer is cheaper. Say, someone needs to write a essay for school, but he is too lazy to type it.... Well, you just record the audio and access

a site for micro tasks, and pay someone to type it. {obviously someone needs to escrow the funds} You can pay, per word.  ;)

Bitcoin is already changing lives in those that don't have the luck of being born in a first world country. Out there people dont have the luxury of owning a bank account and access to markets.

Of course, in the first world, bitcoin does nothing relevant yet, unless you were one of the few that got rich by buying at the beginning.

To me bitcoin is playing the same role a fiat money has been playing after batter trade. Money has been playing the role of exchange for goods and services, measurement of value and that is the same role bitcoin is playing in our societies today. Bitcoin is playing the leading role today because of it's decentralization and fees. If you are rendering services for bitcoin, see it as if you are exchange that services for money as bitcoin is money but in crypto form.

A job is something you do to make money/currency and bitcoin is a currency. Its just a means of payout for future trade. You could be paid in anything you like. If you want you could be paid out in chocolate bars it would not matter so long as its value is equal to your wage.

Bitcoin is money. No one is gonna give you fiat money or bitcoin for free. You can't join bitcoin hype, quit your daily job and expect to grab BTC faucet rewards or something.

The only difference is bitcoin's deflation - we might expect it to be much, much more expensive in the future, effectively making current holders richer.

The level of unemployment in my country is quite high and my investment in ICOs have brought about great returns, so I will agree with the OP, it can change someone's standard of living. Even when you compared the amount some people earn through Signature campaign in this forum is more than what some teachers earn in some private school.

Find a Bitcoin job will be harder than find any other job, because Bitcoin still has many growth potential and most people still don't use it for payments. Bitcoin and altcoin development are exceptions, of course. Bitcoin will only be useful for finding jobs if you or you country are kind of cut off from the financial market, maybe for international sanctions or if send money from or to your country is too expensive

But Bitcoin opens some new ways to earn money, like signature campaigns and trading. Can't be considered jobs, but might be the difference between being a homeless and having electricity and something to eat if things goes wrong

You can't make bitcoin without hard work unless you steal it or with big risks. Also you can't count on bitcoin to be a replacement for a workplace. Of course that if you are a rich person and invest a lot of money in bitcoin you could make the decision to quit your job and live of your bitcoin investment. 😉

How about a combination of both to make a better future. It's making more sense than relying on one alone. Used real life job salary to purchase bitcoins. It's hard to buy bitcoin if you don't have a source of income in the first place.

What bitcoin job they will do if ever they will move to bitcoin? An average bitcoiner is having a hard time to find some stable bitcoin related jobs. Signature campaign? It's not forever and can't be considered as a stable job that will give a person a fixed income in regular period.

If those people who are having a hard time finding a real life work, then it's reasonable to do some bitcoin works for the meantime. But you know people don't need to stay 8 hours or more a day to work on a bitcoin work so if they are fit to work on real life job, find a way to have one.

There is no way to get a single bitcoin for free so better option is to put whatever you can save from your salary in bitcoin and wait few years so that you can have more than what you have actually saved in past.

It's much harder to find a job that pays you in bitcoin instead of fiat imo. There's the services section but you won't find much work needed there.
I agree with this guy going for both is definitely the better move here.

You can have a real job and you can invest the money on btc (not all of them of course). In our days, fiat economy it's not that good, so in my opinion, btc can help many people, like me :p. I have see many changes in my life after using btc. It's more easier and kind of more save, from the point that in real job you can be fired any time. I know, many can say that if btc stop exist or that the price can go very low, yeah, when something like that happened you will have profit without do anything at all. ;)

Bitcoin can offer a chance for better life. Not as an only source of income, this is very hard unless you are professional, but as alternative and additional income is very good source that is available almost to everyone who uses Internet and have some basic knowledge about technology. If you are skilled you can offer your services for Bitcoins.

Around two months ago I have stayed my work and moved for live in another country. And today bitcoin is the only way to earn some money to me. And I can say it's not so bad money. I earn like minimal salary per month with current price. And I hope the price will not fall under 900$, cause of this price is optimal to me.

When you give a thought to the 3.5 billion people on Earth who live in miserable conditions, from paycheck to paycheck, in some cases starving.

These people dont give a shit about banking or finance, they just need some food and shelter. Most people already have a phone in africa, so they can just come online and earn some bitcoins, that they can then use to buy food.

Bitcoin is not for the 1st world, it's for the other 3.5 billion people.

Obviously you need a job to have a better future. Depending solely on bitcoin for having a stable future is actually not a good idea. And Bitcoin is just a currency, i don't see how bitcoin is going to help him get a job. Bitcoin is just  a way of getting paid after he gets a job.

Bitcoin is just another form of money and money has the power to change anyone's life for better but not the mentality. So yes, bitcoin can make peoples life better. Bitcoin can help a person to buy anything which money can buy.

But it may take some more time if that person is not holding a big amount of bitcoin right now. Probably 5-7 years down the line, we all will be able to see a better life with the help of bitcoin.

To make a person's future become better then put some work and effort whether for day jobs or bitcoin jobs. If a person does have a day jobs then it's not a good idea to move and focus to bitcoin and challenge the price volatility. If they really care for bitcoin price then their main goal is to hold their coins which is not a good idea if they are using the money as source of income to support their daily needs.

So to keep their holding coins they need extra money (fiat) that was meant for daily needs.

Bitcoin basically is currency, so people will not easily drop out to their job in real life without don't know how the risk and what they can offer to earn bitcoin.
In my case, bitcoin help me to find a project, because basically I'm a freelancer, I have a some trouble with payment system which I can't use $ to transfer the payment, and I know bitcoin is very useful, plus people who have a great project idea pretty much.

Right now here are not many opportunities to earn with bitcoin as there are in fiat, and also it seems the pay is better in fiat so get a job since that is easier, if you can find a way to earn bitcoin then use it together with your main way to earn money.

I fully agree what has been said from the above responses. I've been using the BTC/altcoin exchanges since 2014 & gave me so much advantages up until now - transaction fees, ease of transfer, no human intervention except you & so on...the fact that I'm a resident of a 3rd world country. Nowadays, I can even send $2-worth of BTC to my bank acct, 24/7 just paying a dust of my btc for transaction fee while comfortably sitting on my chair at my home. just WOW! so yeah, btc or digital currency in some way greatly affects some of the ordinary person's life for the better.

but as full-time job. nope..not for me as of now. i'll leave that to the crypto experts - they can mine, create their coin, do the trading etc.

but still Cheers to Satoshi Nakamoto!!!!  :)  :D

Bitcoin is not everything but just an online currency that has some advantages when comparing with other currencies/fiat. So you can still find a job and work and get the salary/dividends or something else in bitcoin.

So totally bitcoin gave a lot of the advantages for us, about the blockchain enthusiast. I think they've had the high salary caused by it.

Bitcoin can become the farm field in the future.

I think it is a good idea to find a work that pay bitcoin, but it is also not easy to earn from bitcoin, and I still prefer to look for a stable job, I know that bitcoin can change someone life to be better, I had struggled in the past and bitcoin had saved my economic life, it is one of the greatest extra income, but you still need your main income to support your life

There is something to add to this, people have become rich because of bitcoin and it's not a surprise, but what I consider risky is the salary, if someone gets the salary in bitcoin then he is risking 100% of his income in bitcoin, but if he received in bitcoin and sell then it's the same as receiving in cash/fiat. Besides this risk there is also the good part that bitcoin price can go higher and he may get "extra" salaries at the end of the year.

All around the world most people are seeking for a job but its not that easy to be accept in the employer. Now if they will find out the difference between Bitcoin and job for sure once they get the point of it. Spontaneously they will shift to work on bitcoin but before that they will undergo first in learning about it.

bitcoin can change the status of a person for the time being, but we cannot depend on bitcoin for permanent, because no one know the future of bitcoin  although we can expect a better future for bitcoin but still if the price fell down it will then effect the earning of a person who is totally depending on bitcoin for living. therefore we should consider the earning of bitcoin as secondary earning and not as primary.

the level of expectation some people have from bitcoin is too much and it is bad to have dreamy thoughts about bitcoin like becoming a millionaire just because you have a bitcoin.
bitcoin is like money and if you can find a way to earn a lot of it then your level of life will change for the better and if you find a way to waste it like you waste money e.g. in gambling then your life takes a turn for the worse.

See , let me first make things clear.
According to you how much can a person earn in a month .
Around 100 bucks (USD). Does that even have any value in front of the pays given by jobs.
Now you might tell me for people who dont have a job.
Well illiterate people might even not know about bitcoin. How it works etc etc.
So according to me it can be used as a side business just to spend on lavish things.
Well if you are wealthy enough you can just invest some BTCBTC and sell them when the prices go up.
This is by far the best method i have even seen.

Well  I am one of the person who doesn't have a work but I am earning some decent amount of money because of this cryptography currency,

And I think bitcoin is really worth it I mean I don't have to go to a certain place in a certain time and do a certain work for 8 hours.

Bitcoins are definitely the game changer and they are simply the best, I would rather spend time on Bitcoins then on job. Reason is job money shall always be fixed, it's slow and at time you loose the will also to work. While with Bitcoin the prices just keep on rising, there are so many ways to collect it. It has helped me achieve so many things which I would not be able to do, and now finally my fitbit charge 2 which I have been dying for is finally so close to me. Though yet need to earn a Lil more but that's fine. For me it's always will be Bitcoin over job.

My answer to this is no, you won't earn big with bitcoin. It is a good alternative when you are jobless but not as a long term job. You might have a problem when your only job is bitcoin. Actually if earning bitcoin would change the level of your living, I think it is not going to lift you up, but would pull you down little by little. You need a real job if you want to have a better life.

bitcoin certainly capable, but it depends on the person, whether he could use bitcoin to make her life better or not. bitcoin same as money, if you're able to make it flourish, most likely your life will also evolve towards a better than ever.

Well, I think bitcoin was created for that reason! To change a person's life for the better but it still depends on the person if how he or she will do it! Many people here can give their testimonials how bitcoin had changed their life :D bitcoin is really awesome and life-changer ;)

My point exactly too. I believe Bitcoin the meaning of bitcoin has been misunderstood. No one remembers that bitcoin is a CryptoCurrency (Let's just say Currency ). Due to the fact that bitcoin has become somewhat popular recently, Maybe that's what's make people think of it like It's get dropped into wallets for free. Maybe It's because of the rise of ponzis, hyips and all sort of "Bitcoin- Get rich quick".




I agree with you. Since bitcoin's worth is dependent of it's price, I feel the only way It's gets to Change is by working and getting paid in bitcoin and luckily the price goes high. Aside that, I can't think of something else.

It is better to make earning of bitcoin just an extra income if it is just for like freelancing because it will not last unlike having real job it is life saving :) :) :)
So I guess it is good to have both in the future. Earning money in so many ways is a good choice.

It is hard to say in general that bitcoin has changed the lives of a person in general since bitcoin has double effects it can be positive and it can be negative. Some experiences negative impact in using bitcoin and their lives change for the worst and those are the people who purchased a lot of bitcoins and the site they placed their bitcoin into was hacked, they lost profit and some only the debt from loan remains. There are also people whose life changed for the better, a good example is me. My salary was not enough to provide my families needs but thanks to bitcoin I have find an online jobs online that really helped me to overcome my financial crisis and had pay my debts. Thanks to bitcoin my headaches gone.

Well Bitcoin cannot conclusively change the level of a person's life but it can support and assist them in a lot of ways especially people from developing countries who earn less than $200 monthly. It can be a good support but can't change ones life unless you seek a real job and complement it with your Bitcoin earnings.

Thank you for your feedback, it helps those who are experiencing confusion, maybe this could be a solution for them

it's not about finding jobs , but for sure it can help with that
some countries don't have access to online banking or even ewallets and these countries can't purchase , sell or work online
in this case bitcoin can help in making money online , but the majority of countries don't need bitcoin for that

thanks for any advice from you, but I mean like this, there is someone in trouble in finding a job, mandarins on them do not work continue if he could recognize bitcoin it certainly will get his results if they want to find a course, such as join the campaign in social media , join the many other chalenge so mean

bitcoin can change the level of a person's life that can greatly because, who had been unemployed after knowing bitcoin and now have started looking for him after he could bitcoin course if the sale it will be money, because the capital looking for bitcoin was only creativity, use it at bitcoin you will changed the standard of living

It all depends on an individual if what he can do better. If you are not able to get a job it probably means you have no skills that can be used. Now after that you will have to see if there are something in bitcoin world which you can adopt and where you can earn some reasonable amount every month so for sure you should start doing that.

I guess having both is the wise thing you can do. 
Having and earning bitcoin for extra income and a real job for good income and life sustaining money. Bitcoin can really help us in becoming rich and increasing the lifestyle.
 

Relying a job with bitcoin isn't acceptable as it isn't consisntent or enough to provide peopl's needs and wants. Working online woth bitcoin is just a tool for extra imcome and sidline like signature campaign and other stuffs. Therefore, doing a job with bitcoin is idealistic for those people who needs more income and have more time.

i think between a job and bitcoin have correlation because for now i work with bitcoin like doing trading for example, i consider this is my jobs and what i am trade is bitcoin and altcoins. and i think bitcoin is able to change the level of a person's life for the better and that person can make a lot of money from bitcoin.

If you want to earn bitcoin doing a job your probably best bet is to do some freelancing jobs that you can do online, in this forum you could sell your services as a programmer, designer, translator or some other services.

There are still lots of people who misunderstand that bitcoin is a way of earning online. Its not easy to get free bitcoin or earn in bitcoin if you are not selling any goods or services online. Get some offline job, buy bitcoin and store/hold it for long term that may change your life if you can hold for many years.

It has changed people's life in some 3rd world countries, like BitPesa in Kenya and also solving problems with strict capital controls and also

turning the Remittance world on it's head. People also use Bitcoin as a hedge against their own currency, which is losing value at an alarming

rate in some of these countries. Bitcoin disrupts services, without making news head lines.  ::)

I think the best here is to have a job where you recieve btc as a salary. Bitcoin is promising and it might make sense to keep it. However, we all need to sustain ourselves and so any job is needed to provide us with money. Bitcoin offers great opportunities for one to earn money and I'm really glad for that as I'm from a 3rd world country.

Yeah, most of the activities here in the forum usually only works as a good source of income for people who seek a side job, but there are also ways to work with Bitcoin in a main job. For this, you need to have enough skills to produce something with the potential to generate demand. If you don't have it, there is always the possibility of learning.
There are many people who get a job in the Bitcoin business and get great results from it. Another possibility could also be to open your own Bitcoin business.

mostly in the developing countries unemployed will be the biggest problem because opportunity to have work does not come easily and usually people on that country will trying to find another options how to makes money and if they know bitcoin i think that similar such as earnings money and obviously bitcoin already help them so i think in the future bitcoin will bringing people more better because bitcoin worth as money

I don't think dedicating all your time with Bitcoin will be be a good idea. Bitcoin is only good for an additional income together with your work salary, it can't replace your main salary permanently because the amount your earn is way lesser than the income you earn with your work. If Bitcoin is like that than many people will be rich and well off.

i think it is best for the unemployed person to earn money and it will also attract the unemployed nation to reduce their poverty and unemployed person just need a labtob and access to internet to work on it

Lol. Finding a full time jobs with bitcoin is harder than finding it offline . The in-demand skills are mostly programming or graphics related and compared to the offline world who has a much wide variety of jobs that you can apply it is much better . Online jobs here in bitcoin are just a part time job that adds to your monthly income so it is not something that you can devote yourself into . Better stick with daily jobs .

Maybe when time has passed and many opportunities are offered to us then it will be different I think .

Not only in the form of employment, but with the way it's been created bitcoin has made a revolution in the world financial technology. Hope this will be a better option for person who look for a additional earning other than the day job.

Bitcoin is a really innovative way to both earn and store money,but the answer to your question really depends upon the fact whether you are ready to invest in the bitcoin market and face the consequences of loss,rather than backing out :) :)

I think bitcoin would be the one reason a person life to be better because you can do many things using bitcoin(online) but the most good thing is you can make money by trading bitcoin and it helps you in real life to buy stuffs you need/want and to the people who say to drop your job to dwelve into bitcoin you dont need to do that as you can get bitcoin on your spare time.

Not just in bitcoin, everywhere you need to risk to enjoy the better benefits. Because only for new innovation prefering people, there will be better futures as a reward for their risk taking habits.

If you believe bitcoin is an innovative way to deal how we have got used to treat fiats, then there will be better chances to get changed in your life level.

actually I am experiencing it and I see the other people who are experiencing it too. well, we find it difficult to find a job in real because we are required to have a high education, while we find it not difficult to earn bitcoin from a signature campaign and trading. I mean it is difficult for the first time, but as long as we keep learning it, it will be easier.

yes you are right in some sense.... iam new and iam now just learning it that how to earn ,trade and make more or more money (bitcoin) but the the main purpose of most of the people is investment and i think it is the best platform for investment as it keeps on increasing its price......

Well i think about it, its a great idea to accepting salary in bitcoin, Yes you're right people are trying to find a job but didn't work they are just unlucky person's but really in the internet bitcoin can be your salary its a brighter future because bitcoin has transaction that you can pay your bill quickly like the electricity and its very easy but here in my country my salary is bitcoin so i don't have to pay tax i mean government getting my percentage of the salary because in my country the job in the real world they get 10% or 5% of the salary :D

temporarily allowed you raging in the world bitcoin, as long as you wait for a job, it can make you so had revenues of bitcoin, after you work do not forget to keep looking for additional revenue from bitcoin, many places are found in the search for bitcoin therefore bitcoin will change your standard of living

But for those that were unfortunate enough to lose their coins due to a hack it is not possible to say they were affected negatively by bitcoin, they were affected by a malicious hacker or exchange stealing their coins, not bitcoin.

How some 3rd world po' person gon' come online an' earn bitcoin?  Oh yeah, eitha by scammin' o' by takin' a poop all ova this here forum.  Thank god fo' bitcoin'!  Sommeon tell 'em y'all can order prophylaxises o'er the innanet.
