Haven't bumped into one so far, have successfully introduced 1 active person to bitcoin, I think the chances are pretty slim unless you hang around a bitcoin cash machine

I would say they added ETH for the volume to get their fees, I was thinking yesterday how they feel about ETC and if they would also add it alongside ETH but I doubt this will happen, unless ETH really does fail.

Well done to you, that's a pretty cool idea and everybody likes something physical as oppose to showing somebody something virtually which always ends being more complicated than it actually is.

These sites are extremely risky, especially for those new to bitcoin as they will see the profit and might think that it is legit.
If you do make your bitcoin back and then everything else is profit then you are one of the lucky ones, the majority of people will lose on these sites as you just cannot predict when they will stop operating.

I expected ETH to have suffered a lot more than what it has so far, I suppose there is a lot of people with a lot of money in ETH for it to just disappear.

200 posts in a day, he must have slept the whole way through the ban 

One of the worst decisions would be buying an alt, watching the price shoot up and then still holding the coin when it plummeted, it can happen so quickly.

Best decision was taking up bitcoin in the first place.

Your easiest way would probably be to use a debit card and load it with bitcoin, there will be fees associated to this though.

If you search the forum for bitcoin debit cards you will find the various different ones, some will ask you to purchase the card but there were a few that were offering free cards and I think Cryptopay was doing this a few weeks not sure if they still are though.

I like this post.
Nothing ever goes smoothly in this world and just when people thought ETH was on it's way to catching bitcoin the DAO happened and now we have something to grab the popcorn for and sit back and see which one comes out the winner, I am leaning towards ETC.

For altcoins, if that's what you are looking into I prefer Bittrex which is the middle of the road exchange and I have never had an issue with them for years. 

It seems the route for many altcoins is Yobit, then onto Bittrex or C-Cex and then onto Poloniex so if you are there at the right time you can pick up some coins for dirt cheap on Yobit and then ride the wave onto the other exchanges.

This is easier said than done.

I think the op is referring to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1507571.0
currently trading on Yobit with no buy orders and their ANN thread is virtually empty with no roadmap, perhaps this guy knows something nobody else does but to me it's a desperate attempt to get some attention for this coin.

Welcome, don't worry too much about not getting the bitcoin as it is in a pending state so it will arrive, it could take minutes or a few hours depending on the transaction fee that the faucet paid which is more than likely very small so it will take longer.

Online wallets should be okay for you as you are just starting out and using faucets as they pay out a small amount, if you do decide to stick around and have a larger amount of bitcoin then there are other options you could consider to store your bitcoin, when that time comes just have a search on the forum and you will find further information.

Bittrex is a pretty cool exchange, I have used them for a few years and have never had any problems with them.

ETC was up over 300% yesterday and the hash was up to 1TH I believe, it certainly caught a few eyes from those that dismissed it so this will be one to watch, myself personally I think the whole fork was a bad idea for ETH and it's reputation, it would have been better if they learned from it and continued forward.

This is one very confusing offering, definitely see if someone can help with the translation otherwise nobody will be able to understand what you are offering.

I have used an ATM a while ago and the fee was at 10% which is not the greatest, it is extremely quick and easy though, well the one I used was, I was in and out of the shop within minutes which surprised me as I thought it would be a lengthy process.

Circle, Coinbase, Localbitcoins or bitylicious would probably be better options, but if you do have an ATM in your area it would be worth just getting a small bit just to have done it

The obvious one ETH / ETC or whatever it's going by these days, it's hard to see for sure what other ones could do well, WBB I feel is under the radar right now with some potential, RBR also but it is a risk to be buying into right now.

I used to use them but then stopped as it became too time consuming and faucets are just too small to make anything from, if you are lucky you might hit one of the higher rewards, I am yet to see any mention of anybody ever hitting the top reward and they have been going for a few years.

If you have the time it isn't the worst faucet out there.

Towards Christmas would be my guess, that's a good few months after the halving and hopefully something big will happen to take bitcoin further into being adopted by more people, as long as it is steady it will look like a legit investment and should bring more serious investors along.

Is there anything really free in this world? would like to see if somebody actually gets their $10 in 7+ days time.

DOGE is one of those coins that will be around forever on occasion it gets pumped and then falls back down to this sort of level, no doubt it will increase up to 45 - 50 at some point, nice time to buy right now.
