Someone already stated the Amazon Mechanical Turk, which is kinda nice thing to do. And also, you can join some signature campaigns here in btt for bitcoins if you have the time to post and discuss things about bitcoin and at the same time, earn money.

of course, I spend it for everyday purposes, because I make money just from bitcoin How does one make money just from bitcoin itself? A very skilled trader? A man from the early beginnings of bitcoin? How? In the world of cryptocurrencies, you cannot only rely on cryptos just for a living. But how do you just do that?

if thats the case, why do ppl have their bitcoin address on their profile such as for donations etc. So they change it every single time they receive even 1 donation? That wouldnt make any sense.
Using the same address for collecting payments AND STORAGE is a big NO. Why would you store a large amount of btc in one address knowing that it is prone to attacks and hacks because it is online when you can transfer it to a new address and keep it in a cold storage (offline wallets or paper wallets)? It's not that you can't use the same address for every transactions. It's just that you might want to reduce the risk of the vulnerability of your coins against hackers and thieves.

Wait, another quick question! Do not post the majority of your posts in a few days, post consistently. Those who post the majority of their posts in a few days then stop posting will be denied payment. What if I posted within a couple of days (say for example, a straight week/every single day of that week) and majority of my posts are made within that week. I am a student so I probably can post at evenings where I can spend most of my free time. Will I get denied of the payment because as you've said, "Do not post the majority of your posts in a few days, post consistently. Those who post the majority of their posts in a few days then stop posting will be denied payment." i'm getting kinda worried because I'm only available this week and my free time are usually within the evenings. Should be fine as long as you don't spam! Well in my stay here in btt, I never spammed, even once. Well thanks for clearing that up marcotheminer.

Well, since your wallet is on your computer, why not try making a paper wallet and put the majority of your holdings in there and try keeping some coins for spending in a hot wallet (a wallet that is always, or most of the time, connected to the internet) for spending purposes?? In that way, you can be sure that the majority of your coins are kept safely within your reach. There are also the Armory wallet in which your coins may be stored, but based on what I've read, the software is resource-heavy (I don't know, haven't used it yet) so maybe sticking into a paper wallet might save you from hesitations.

ever since January, where we hit a low, the transactions per day have never been as high as they are now.
the number of unique addresses used is ~30% up from december 2013
miners are struggling making a profit with these prices (so difficulty is lagging behind)
why is the price lagging behind so much?
it has every reason to rise, and yet is doesn't.
There are a lot of factors that needs to be positive first before the price moves upward. Like you, I am also wondering what is the reason why the prices aren't up when there are a lot of positive things happening around bitcoin.

Using faucets is a good start to familiarize yourself on how does every transactions work in the bitcoin ecosystem. It is also a nice way for you to experience holding some coins as a start of your journey here. Anyways, welcome to the world of bitcoin, and cryptocurrency as well!

Have coinbase and blockchain account. I see my address for both coinbase and blockchain. I will mostly use blockchain to receive btc from gambling sites and other people and send btc from blockchain to gambling sites. Rarely would i use coinbase except to buy bitcoin or sell bitcoin from blockchain. I was told to receive bitcoin to my blockchain account or even coinbase, i need to tell the other party what is my bitcoin address. I see what it is on blockchain. What im confused is i read you need to generate a new address everytime. Can someone explain this? That doesn't make any sense.
Example if my bitcoin address on blockchain is kfajsdj;faksjfasdjfkasjdfadjsfjadsfjasjklafsff0opo-2930-9-019, then have the other party or site send me bitcoins. So you saying the 2nd time i receive bitcoins from a gambling site, im not suppose to give that same bitcoin address on blockchain? That doesn't make any sense. Because i see ppl here post their bitcoin address for donattions or whatever so you going to have different addresses? I heard you only use the address just once... that doesn't make sense at all. So each time i use a bitcoin address to receive btc, then i generate a new one and the old one is no more? If thats the case, then why do ppl post their btc address in their profile etc since they only receive it once?
Or is this only for sending btc from an address to another gambling site? Im really confused at this as theres a new address each time which makes no sense for me.
Also if i use a desktop wallet like multibit or electrum, does that mean i still have to generate new address each time? If so is it for sending or receiving or both? This is pretty confusing to me b/c i figure you only have 1 address that you receive btc to. Also sending btc from your address means you can only do it once? Really confused at this.
Wait, are you saying that you need to generate a new address whenever you receive some btc from a gambling site? Or will they generate a new address whenever you send them some btc? I'm also confused too.

Not impossible, but in the current movements in the market, it's way too improbable for the price to reach even in the thousands mark. But, who knows? Maybe a bubble might form and take us to the thousands, but tens of thousands? Improbable at this year.

Escrow service means that you would entrust a "midman" between your transactions to another person. Basically, an escrow is a trusted and reliable person that you can entrust your money or valuables in times of a transaction, to secure the items or money and for the transaction to be safely executed.

You might want to search for a promising coin that could rise in price in a span of short time. Mining an altcoin in its infancy is a great way to snug a hefty amount of it and dump it in the market whenever you feel that the price is right for your expenses. Mining bitcoin straight is not a good idea, so mining altcoins is a nice opportunity for you to get some pretty good profit, given that you have some computing power to use.

Such a low price tbh, but I'm actually waiting for the $180-$190ish mark and grab some coins to keep, After all, I'm still up because I basically started with 0 btc. Most of the btc I have came from sig campaigns and stuffs, so yeah. But a higher price won't hurt, it's just that a lower price seems to be a good opportunity to grab some coins.

I have investigated the LOBSTER matter and it turns out he was banned. He was honest enough to speak truthfully hence he will be allowed to keep the 0.1BTC bonus. Other than that, his signature payment must be return as I have stated to: 1DwsNFJnXFSFtXP7M2q4rVczLyTqNpz1pb.
Wow, that's a lot to return. Impressive and honest of him. I struggle to make 50 posts in a month, it's amazing (in a good way) that people are able to get into the hundreds. I should get my wife on here...I bet she could get in the thousands If only I have the free time, I CAN also get into the hundreds (but thousands is just waaaaaaay to many free time to spend.)

May I ask something? Seeing a line in the OP regarding the local subs. NOTE: A 15% bonus will be added if you are a native speaker of a foreign language and at least 20% of your posts are in that language’s sub-forum (e.g. Spanish, Russian, etc…)
Does that mean that I can post to my local subs and I can still be paid PLUS a bonus from yours if 20% of my posts are located there?
