You may want to try Takara or SaruTobi by MandelDuck. Takara: there is a version for Android too, just search for it, http://mandelduck.com/#portfolioModal7Sarutobi: http://mandelduck.com/sarutobi/These games are quite popular in Japan however both allow you to use Bitcoin and other Counterparty assets within the games. There is also Spells of Genesis from EverdreamSoft which is set to be launched within a week worldwide. It's a trading card game with an arcade feel to it. http://spellsofgenesis.comPlease do not add games to the list, if you cannot generate some income from playing it. The idea is to add Android games where kids can have fun and earn Bitcoin whilst doing it. No Games where there are counter party tokens or Alt coin introduced that cannot be sold for Bitcoin. Also, please do not add faucets to this thread... they say it is boring. This is a huge opportunity for game developers.... and they are not grabbing it by the horns.  Just to re-iterate, you can make a little BTC with each of the games I mentioned and for kids they are actually fun to play. Takara allows you to pickup Counterparty assets on a map as well as Bitcoin, it's like Pokemon but with XCP assets + BTC instead of pokemon characters. Sarutobi allows you to earn some Bitcoin while playing it. Spells of Genesis is all about collecting blockchain cards to win your opponents, but you can also level up free cards given in-game which eventually can be blockchainized and sold on the secondary market. The blockchainization is a feature that will come in the near future. So yes these games allow you to earn Bitcoin. |

You can buy BTC from a friend, no need for bank account just exchange with cash.
However be very careful, make sure you know the person well. Alternatively go to the nearest Bitcoin Meetup (possibly local) and make some friends there.
You'll be up and running in no time.

To make money with Bitcoin mining, stay out of it  |

Do you seriously think that Matchpool has a chance against Tinder?

is there inflation in factom?
Not right now but when they release milestone 3 there will be about 73K FCT newly created per month. That is some time away though, it will require Federated Servers elections. |

Find a friend who owns Bitcoins and buy directly with cash. |
|
|
|
|
Some people have mortgages or other form of debt like credit cards, loans, etc...
It is understandable if they were to sell some of their BTC to cover for these.

That was expected... Wondering if they keep submitting new bitcoin financial products eventually they'll win against the SEC! |

hi guys! sorry for being noob for this one, Im not too particular with the jargons so im going to ask it directly. >Do I need other hardware? or just my laptop is good? >Do i need to be good in programming to work this one? >do i need to invest to work this? I really aprreciate if someone answer this on details. Sorry again for being noob  1. Yes ideally you would use ASIC miners for Bitcoin or gaming GPUs for other alts. 2. You don't need to be a programmer but you need to know how to install things on your PC and how to run software via command line. 3. Unless you have ASIC miners or GPUs already yes you will have to spend some money to get yourself some mining hardware. |

This project is alive and kicking with all the news surrounding it. Good things come to those who wait, someone said once upon a time... Coin supply is very limited too. |

I am wondering. Could laws change and eventually the IRS and whatever agency combined might go and scour all the blockchains and try to tax the shit out of everybody they presume to be holding cryptocurrency?
Privacy based coins that actually work would be safe but what about BTC its self without the use of those mixing services, current ETH, and XEM for example that has no intentions for privacy at all?
If you earn BTC or any other altcoin because of work, mining, speculation on exchanges, etc you have to declare it as any other income. If you don't do that sooner or later you may get caught, simple. |

https://medium.com/@tradertimm/china-cartel-shakedown-bu-vs-btc-482973935e06#My how have times changed. Used to be, the worst thing that Bitcoin had to deal with were scammers and crooks infesting the ecosystem and giving the network a bad name. Now, we have potentially state-sponsored actors that are fighting to wrest control from the veteran Bitcoin developers and clients. Quick writeup about the Chinese Cartels and their shakedown of Bitcoin. Good read thanks for sharing. The China Cartel may stop to exist in case there's an attack and Core after an eventual fork and it gets a new POW algorithm... I will get myself a few GPUs then and help the network. |

Bitcoin has been proclaimed dead many, many times... And yet is still chugging along nicely.
There are some issues, don't get me wrong, and the community is a little divided however I do think Core is the version with the most support right now, at least from users.
So I am pretty confident Bitcoin will be around for a looooong time and will get better and better.
Some alts are interesting too and it's great to see other projects, different takes and ways to go at it.
It's all a big test environment where to get ideas flowing and experiment.
Out of all this the best tech and ideas will stick out and they will be used possibly in Bitcoin too either directly or via sidechains and 2nd layer protocols.

With a clean computer and an active AV on it you should be safer. Use a good antivirus software to clean your computer or better re-install the OS altogether.
Linux is the way to go, Windows is just the biggest target for viruses and malware.

I tend to agree, using a desktop wallet where you own your addresses and private keys is the way to go.

I do believe that too that bitcoin network can't be hacked, the fact that it stays as a top and popular digital currency is the proof. And I guess many people must be converting their bitcoin to other altcoins or assets that is more secured. But wallets can be hacked, and thats what happened from the recent hacked sites. I think if there are genius that can hack the system, gonna believe that he is a top hat hacker.
And not all hackers are that bad, there are also white hat hackers.
I disagree in the bolded part, bitcoin can be hacked but it is very hard, in the near future it might get hacked using super computers (we can't stop technology and we all know that) and if that happens, bitcoins will be very easy to hacked, the dev team might need to do some tweaks in the code (lets say security to be more secure) There will be ways to prevent hacks even with Quantum Computing, simply by changing some of the algorithms used. Also consider that by the time that happens encryption would have got better we'd hope. |

You can lend your BTC on some exchanges and make some money that way.
