Bitcoin Forum

Has mostly everyone just purchased Bitcoin outright? I have now purchased some bitcoin and I feel like I should just store it in an offline wallet and let it sit for a few years. How did you guys earn the bitcoin you have in your wallet as of right now? How are you planning to use your bitcoin in the future?

For the question of like, well i like it free! :P

But of course you need to toil to earn, so I get it from mining with alt coins and then selling for btc. I have a GPU. Also I earn with cloud mining, using cex. you can check my sig. I earn by trading GHs share and with the mining results it gives while holding on the GHs.

And you can also earn from various sources, some sell their sig, also some earn through faucets and paid to click sites.

I have made almost all my btc (1.06) BTC for free! I have done website design jobs, gambling, signature space, and other things to make $300 worth of BTC!

buy

if in need of funds to buy stuff, use it!

When Primedice's faucet was a bit higher, I succeeded in gambling high enough to the payout limit and cashed out immediately. and thats how I got my 0.08 :D

I made mine on Primedice , lol

I think I'll just buy them since mining isn't profitable anymore...

Made like 0.07 from PrimeDice. Once went to 2. Base is 0.01

You can mine profitable scrypt coins with ATI video cards and further on sell them for 80+% of the original cost. Even losing a bit and paying for electricity, they pay for themselves and spare you the hassle of sending money and personal docs to an exchange, paying fees along the way, and trusting that exchange. It's a matter of preference, I guess.

I got all of my coins by gambling and doing programming stuff.

Buying is definitely the easiest especially if you are looking for larger amounts. Mining scrypt coins if you have cheap electricity. To get started collecting small amounts there are lots of giveaways from the gambling sites on this forum and also faucets can payout if you have a lot of time on your hands.

free bitcoin faucet (http://freebitco.in/?r=4909)

i'm sure captcha is easy by solver standards, so you could possibly set up a bot for this faucet

Me myself got 0.4 btc from some freebies/faucets 0.4 btc from sig space and the rest from mining

I would prefer to be simply mining for the rest of my life, if it was easier

Dayum. Well done!

Ah yes, forgot about trading

Although I'm more like 0.150 btc :)

Thanks ;) ... was a good week  

I'm not really sure how this works, care to elaborate?
I checked out the website, it seems you can purchase 1 GH/s for 0.1BTC, how much can you earn with it?
How do you even use it  ???

You should look at this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=317001.msg3518407#msg3518407 and then many others on cex first. As always take in both sides presented to you and make your own descisions.

How is that even possible? do you mine LTCs??

It already not profit a few month ago

Oh really? How much was your capital?

Suppose at now the best way is buy btc and wait for few days ;) . Rate increases rapidly.

best method?

Try this game:Goldentowns (http://www.goldentowns.com/?i=873)   i heard that they accept BTC

I have been mining and also hitting up the free faucets

I am also looking into litecoin mining as this appears to be easier and results in higher LTC being generated just hoping they shoot up in value

Havent tried gambling yet any suggestions?

Free one in my signature. Also Primedice and 777coin threads on here will give a free credit to your account.

pathetic way to get your ref-link in :/

nothing wrong with giving out referring links on forums, but in this case he's a freshly registered spammer , so yeah..

thats exactly the reason why I called him out. Not contributing to the community at all and just wants his share of referals. what has this world come to.

Mining

I have earned some coins from tremorgames and coinad and bitvisitor.

I Made mine from selling digital items online  ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)

I've bought some, used bitvisitor.
Bought mining gear.
Invested in gamblingsites and obviously done some gambling aswell.

How do you decide when to trade between the two? I'm guessing it's some technical analysis but I'd be really interested in the specifics.

I buy a BTC and waiting for two years. then sell. profit *= 60

That is still gambling :-)

I share the opinion about mining alt coins. LTC, PPC maybe

You may put referral link to your signature when you have 10 posts. It is not allowed to put referral link in posts :)

I get mine through painting :)

I earned some amount by faucets, small jobs and LTC ↔ BTC trading, but it was only laughable amounts.

I earned about 0.2 BTC from free faucets half year ago when faucets gave more BTC. I dont doing it anymore now, just buying  :)

Faucets only. I've been there for a week only.
Would love to sell stuff for BTC.
