I haven't experienced that because not many people knows that I'm bitcoin user.
But few days ago one interesting thing happened to me. My father heard news about WannaCry attacks and that hackers asks to pay $300 in bitcoin. He tought that 1 bitcoin is worth $300. When I told him that bitcoin costs almost $2000, he was amazed and started to ask me, how to get bitcoins.

It's not good advice. You can quote everyone's posts. But make quotes only when you have to say something important or want to add your minds to discussion and don't repeat what was already said. It's good advice not to quote pyramids - quotes which consists from multiple posts because it makes threads messy. Quote only part of text that you want to answer.

Xapo faucet list was updated today and few new faucets was added. Xapo faucet list isn't such big as other faucet list, but here you also can find some good paying faucets.

This overview is only for bitcoin paying signature campaigns. Thread for altcoins signature campaign can be found here:

I hope that today morning when I will wake up, I will see nice numbers $2000. Damn, I never was such optimistic about bitcoin price movement like now. At start of 2017 I expected that it will take whole year to reach $2000 but I was completely wrong. And now I can't imagine how big milestone bitcoin can reach by the end of the year.

Sad, but I had to stop promote this faucet. In few days I got 40 referrals and they earned me nice amount of satoshi which can't be withdrawn. And my referrals can be disappointed, because they also not received payouts. Well, it was my mistake to promote faucet before receiving payout.
Agree, this faucet really looked promising. And owner was able to earn more in legit way. Now he will receive some payments from ad networks, but then users will realize that faucet aren't paying and will leave it. Game over. Owner just need to lover rewards a bit to be able to pay for usees and stay in profit. But looks that he don't want to do that.
BTW, how do you discovered, how instant-btc using revenue from ads?

Check my website:
http://bitcoins4free.altervista.org
Over 300 bitcoin faucets which is checked and paying. You can choose your preferedcpayment options: Faucethub, ePay, Xapo, Faucetsystem and Direct payments to your wallet.
Also look at Micro earnings board on bitcointalk. You will find some interesting faucet-games.

Hm, Bitcoin wallet which pays interest on users ballances. At first look, it sounds interesting. It's smart move made by Freebitco.in owner. If more users will hold funds here, Freebitco.in will be able to expand their mining operations and earn more profit (and share part of profit with users). It's win-win situation for website owner and their users.
I deposited some bitcoins to earn interest, but I don't think that I will use Freebitco.in as a wallet. Freebitco.in is my favourite bitcoin website, but their primary function isn't a wallet. Also, it's not good thing that website sometimes goes down.
But I like that Freebitco.in always adding more interesting features to their service to get more users. Lottery, reward points, daily interest, web wallet function. It's interesting what they will add next.

No, there are no more wallets or exchanges which covers transaction fees for their users. Or maybe I just don't know any such services. Now only Xapo to Xapo and Coinbase to Coinbase transfers are the only way to send bitcoins free.
Now users will have to pay transactions fees from their pocket,such is reality. And Nagadota said, payments inside Xapo or Coinbase services isn't real bitcoin transactions, it's just off-chain transfers. And it's not best way to send bitcoins.

If you are looking for more alternatives, you can check Coingate.com . So far it's not very popular service worldwide, but in my country quite popular and I didn't saw any bad reviews about Coingate.

What? Is it bitcoin dying again? How many times it was dead already? Bitcoin is like a zombie who always re-borns after death.
If to talk serious, this thread will become paradise for signature spammers. Let's prepare for answers such like "Bitcoin isn't dying because blah blah nlah.

It's hard to tell, because we don't know who hides under these attacks. I don't believe this attack was made by North Korea. I don't think that their hackers is such powerful to make attack which affected people in over 100 countries.
My personal conspiracy theory:  maybe attack was made by group of people who are working in big IT corporation and they found security breach and found way how to benefit from it. So, I think these who made this attack is only winners in this situation.

If you are using Android phone, there you have many wallets to choose as you can see here:
https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet
Bitcoin Wallet, Electrum and Mycelium are most popular. Blockchain.info also have their mobile app. But other wallets is good and safe to use.
P.S. No matter which wallet you are using, it's not safe to keep big amount of bitcoins in mobile wallet because phone is such thing that it's easy to loose.

It depends on how many faucet you will use and how often will you claim. But probably you will need few years to earn 1 bitcoin from faucets. And if bitcoin price will continue to rise, you will need even more time to earn that amount, because faucet owners will lower their rewards.
But there are lot of more effective and faster ways to earn bitcoins. Use faucets to earn few dollars, but not your mentioned amount.
I remember times when it was possible to earn 0.5 bitcoin in few months. But then bitcoin price was $200 only and mostly faucets was funded by revenue from Adsense.

So, in this article only Donbass and Crimea was called as former Ukraine. You in thread title called whole Ukraine as former country.

Yep, message about empty Xapo wallet is shown again and so far I didn't received payout. But at least now we know that it's not scam. But looks that they have very limited budget and it's not good for users.

Are you both blind or don't know how to use search function. Here is Exmo announcement thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1084193.0
They also have announcement threads in mostly local boards. And I don't see potential risk just because domain registered in Russia. Exmo is just usual exchange/ trading website which already in business for few years

Sometimes I don't understand ePay.info. Once they actively communicating with users, but some times you will not get answer in almost week from them. Users have lot of issues with their service - withdrawal problems, disappeared coins and various similar errors. And it looks that epay team can't solve these problems fully.
I remember that ePay said that their new faucet script will be realeased in end of 2016. Now it's middle of May and guess what they said? Script is almost finnished.
ePay.info isn't scam, but they have to work more professional if they want to compete with Faucethub. I hope they will improve to service. They have to it if they don't want to lose majority of users.

First of all, there are no such thing as former Ukraine.
In past Ukraine banned Russian TV channels (even oppositional Dozhd) and all russian films made after 2013. I think it was good move to fight against propaganda.
These blocked websites was in top 10 by popularity, so bans will have big influence for many people. And I think Ukraine this time goes to far. Censore internet never was a good idea. People hate such bans, and it's not good sign for Ukraine government and president.
And it's interesting which method will they use to block access to these sites. Change DNS settings, use VPN, this is only few of ways how to evade these bans.
In my country government blocked all sports betting websites which are not registered in my country. But these betting websites make alternative domains to avoid ban. For example, bet365 have such alternative domains like 788-sb.com 365sb.com

It was only question of time, when Xapo will start charge fee for every transactions. Free tranactions helped to Xapo to build huge customer base and they one of the major online wallets. They reached what they wanted and now they can't cover transaction fees anymore.
Xapo was last wallet which had free transactions for their users. Now Xapo and Coinbase lost their main advantage against other wallets. Maybe it means that less users will choose to use these centralized wallets.
