Title: What to do with all these btc?
Post by: aaronlolz on March 03, 2013, 05:36:35 PM
I've spent the past two days of my life going through bunches of free coin sites.
I've accumulated a whopping 0.01 btc!
What should I do with all these coins lol.. Like really, what do i do 0.0

How much is that worth USD?

For the love of god don't gamble it lol :P

Well unfortunately right now 0.01 Bitcoins is barely worth anything, I'm convinced that those free Bitcoin sites are designed to farm peoples' addresses like how everyone nowadays is trying to get your email addresses for advertising/hacking purposes. Honestly, I'd work on getting a skill set that people will value which you can use on the internet and do stuff for Bitcoins, Mining and those free sites is very tedious work for very small payouts.

Unless you have an ASIC right now you probably won't be able to make 0.1 BTC a day soon enough even with a good graphics card and the payout just isn't worth it for how much damage it will do to your computer.

That's actually a fantastic idea, I haven't seen what BTCJam is like before so I might actually try it out if you can do things with that much money :D

360MH isn't a nice setup, that would be a 1 GPU rig, you would net about 1.26BTC/mo

ASIC miners can mine at 60GH which would net significantly more than that.

For new people who want to play with BTC but don't have much to use, I've found the Rugatu system to be pretty neat.  It's a more focused discussion of whatever topic is asked, and you'll often get BTC rewards for thoughtful or dynamic responses.  The threshold that you earn might be too low to pay out to another account at the moment, but at least it's a more interactive environment than 'chats for btc' or filling out captchas. 

0.01 BTC isn't much, but if you decide you want to post a bounty on one of your questions, you could easily sent a few mBTC to your Rugatu address just to post small bounties on things you want to ask.  For people with mining questions - there seem to be a few miners lurking there who might be able to help you set up your configurations. 

Most of the conversations are BTC obsessed, likely due to the psychological impulses that arise from adoption.  It doesn't cost anything to ask your questions either, and sometimes the system will donate to your empty pool to help motivate people to even see what you have to say (particularly if your question is another bad-BTC related one.

Whoever was running it was paying people to ask questions for a while but it's not a bad idea which would benefit from having more minds around - particularly if you're knowledgeable about something OTHER THAN BITCOIN!

Shameless plug, but I'm building a site where people like you can build a profile and list your skills, then get invited to jobs (something like Elance for Bitcoin).

Early days yet, but if you're interested you can leave your email for early access to the beta: http://signup.bitlancr.com  :)
