It did actually. Thanks! I'm not really in a position to mine though. It looks like nobody actually is at this point in time. Mining is still pretty profitable. Just not AS profitable as it USE to be. Just like how btc use to be worth little to nothing, now it's worth a ton. Time just changes certain things By that answer, would you still mine or not at all? Probably, yeah. I just know getting the software and type of computers for that would be staggering. With that in mind, I wouldn't do that everyday. It'd actually be hilarious if there were people doing that everyday Trust: there is. For what reason? If mining isn't profitable as it use to be, then it is time to simply move on. Invest in stocks and perhaps attempt holding or something along those lines. They would have to probably spend more money than what they're actually coming across trying to mine bitcoins. Even actual physical real life mining isn't profitable anymore. It kinda goes back on what their mindset and initial beliefs behind what they're doing happens to be. Holding, trading, and investing isn't for everyone. Holding was something that personally worked for ME. I cannot neccessarily speak for every single person when I say that holding has worked for me because your situation might be different. Maybe you know when to mine, but I simply do not or just simply have no interest or motivation to learn the right time of when to perform such tasks. Everybody's experience is going to be different. Yeah that's true. Just can't imagine who could profit from it right now is what I'm worried about. A lot of things people didn't think could be profitable became profitable, regardless of everyone's initial belief towards it. For example, a lot of people didn't think bitcoin would even get to this high price and have it be so stagnant so what should that tell you? You can make anything profitable if you just truly focus on it and nothing else. Worrying about other things make it difficult. Just don't think about it so much. |

Do you have any career goals with bitcoin? What are you planning for the near future after all this?  Gearing up for halving season of course. Yeah but in what ways? Well, I am just trying to save as much as I can. It helps to hold a ton of money that you don't actually need. At the time I was holding, $200 was considered a ton. I am currently not holding but that's only because I just cashed in and sold everything I have. $200 now is still considered a lot. Just saw the price right now. Bitcoin is exactly $780.05 It's a good price! It should be getting much much higher in just a few weeks. The holidays always move the price up and down I feel. Really? I've sincerely never noticed that at all. When did you pick that up? About four years ago. There's news reporters and whatnot dedicated to simply just studying when bitcoin's price fluxuates a certain way. I wouldn't personally have time to check up on that on a regular basis like the news reporters do so it's really nice to have people who are periodically devoting so much time, thought, and research souly into this matter alone. What else are people keeping track of daily? Well from what I've noticed, they're keeping track of a whole giant list of things. They're keeping track of price increases, when the price increases, why it does, how it does. They're also keeping track of any public figures who get involved in bitcoin for advertisement reasons. They're also pretty interested in figuring out who is still mining. Mining is no longer as profitable as it was before so when it does happen, it's pretty remarkable. I've never even once touched on mining. How do you do it exactly? This should help |

Hi! That's really cool that you were able to make so much from just holding. Most people usually make that amount through just lucky gambling. This in a sense was also a gamble. It kind of looks like you just got super lucky but it could have been done deliberately so I guess I'll ask this.
Was it all deliberate or did you genuinely forget like how you made it seem? Although I can't for the life of me really see anybody holding so much money and just forgetting all about it.
It was intentional. I just didn't think I'd make out like this. Well it's definitely inspirational to know about your story. I have been trying to hold my coins a little bit. I usually don't focus on anything that isn't initially promising. Did you have any kind of doubts that you might lose all that money? Were you ever scared? Of course I was scared. I never really know exactly what the outcome to something is going to be. We don't have a crystal ball, and the future is always 100% unknown. Haven't you ever had that feeling? Yeah, definitely. What price do you think we'll hit this year? I was thinking maybe $850. Over the time I was holding, I notice each year at least $50 is stagnant. That is the only thing that I've noticed. Maybe even less gets in there but no matter what, it's a process and it definitely will grow no matter what. I think year 2020 might be the year of Bitcoin reaching its peak. Maybe. I don't actually know. No one does, just like you said. As of now, I don't have any real place to check up on news related to Bitcoin. Can you recommend anything reliable? Probably CNN. |

Nothing that I know of in terms of a business plan can really ever raise the price on its own. It takes a large group of people being involved in bitcoin (trading, buying, selling, holding, and the like). Indirectly you could probably find a way to get bitcoin advertised, but certainly not raised. It really depends on whether or not how you advertise it interests people to get started with bitcoin.
Oh I know that. I meant that indirectly to be honest here. Most of the time, it's not simplistic but it's all about the appeal of something you sell to the public. If something doesn't look trustworthy or seems quite cautionary, no one goes near it. For an example, orange is really a color of caution. That's why traffic cones and prison suits are orange. There's a huge psychological game that comes into play with why not enough contributors are adopting btc. |

I do not fit your scope because I'm living in a rent, have a job with above average pay, not facing any debts and since a year ago I do not live from paycheck to paycheck anymore but I'm pretty sure you won't find here people who " really need it to buy food to eat or are in military homes". Such people have other things to struggle with and won't be able to access the internet to post here and if so, they are simply lying about their situation ... so my opinion.
Just be careful in trusting newbies with low activity and registration date after this OP ( btw I'm quite surprised this thread is not flooded with them yet ).
Here's my proposal, put your BTC in some interest wallet ( I trust BW and HaoBTC ) and redirect the profit to redcross, salvationarmy or similar charity. You can always withdraw BTC back and donate them directly.
Good luck. I wish your BTC won't end up in wrong hands.
Bless you. I'm so glad you were honest with me. Definitely deserves a trust point. Aw. I wish I wasn't so stingy. XD Maybe I could learn from you? Here's an idea though. Maybe instead of donating $200-400's worth in bitcoin, you could maybe just donate like $20 or something like that. That's much less detrimental. Or should I say "debt"trimental?
It's good sometimes to be stingy. (Sometimes. Not all times). And yeah, maybe you're right. Just some starter coin for the newcomers. You can still make a few satoshi from holding a $20. And ahahah cute joke! What should pay off is coding work. Maybe you wanna look into that? Web design is greatly appreciated here and makes a lot.
How much do coders typically look for to get their businesses up and running? |

I'll take a half a Bitty. Donate address is in my profile. What a great gesture! You can give 40 people half a Bitcoin and make their Holiday season. Good on you sir.
No that's way too much. I wouldn't even donate $6k worth. Just $3.5 k worth. I have to ask some questions. Are you financially struggling? Low income home owner? Any serious debts? Etc? Was the price back then really $10 or was it something else?
For the most part, yes. Its really cool, I didn't get any even just a whole 1 bitcoin since I started here. And what is the exactly price of bitcoin when you get those 20 btc? You can try business out there to get more profit and earn a lot  If you're kind hearted person maybe you can share any amount there in your wallet to me, just visit my profile and there's my btc addresses. Well just kidding I know you'll not do it. Any ways congrats dude. I'm only giving $3.5k worth of btc. This information is needed for me to feel confident giving it to you or anyone else though.  Are you a low income home owner? Facing any debts? Saving up for something needed? Etc? |

If I may interject here: One thing that can be done is to just focus on yourself when you're here. Nobody wants to just throw away all their precious earnings on people that will probably just blow it all away. It's not that easy to come across that much money. Not only that, assuming you held your coins when they were just $10 each, it took you years to get that much and that'll never ever happen again. Bitcoin is a really risky thing to get into. Whether you're gambling, investing, spending, or even just holding, it's all a huge gamble.
Thank you for the interjection. I completely agree. I just figured the holidays were here. I donate some of my things to others during this season, and I don't really see any losses here because the original money was $200 that I knew I could spare years ago. Of course I'm not donating all $15k. Not half of $15k. Not even half of half of $15. Just a little to someone in need. Do you have any career goals with bitcoin? What are you planning for the near future after all this? Gearing up for halving season of course. That's just being too sweet. Why though? Is there any genuine reason? Do you do this all the time or no? Just feeling the holiday spirit?
Yes there's a significant reason. Half of the money I used to hold was given to me. The other half I took out of my paycheck. |

I think I have heard of bitcoin getting coverage on CNN. Where OP heard about that though might have just been through friends.
It has gotten coverage on the CNN website if I'm not mistaken. That's not how I heard though. Hi! That's really cool that you were able to make so much from just holding. Most people usually make that amount through just lucky gambling. This in a sense was also a gamble. It kind of looks like you just got super lucky but it could have been done deliberately so I guess I'll ask this.
Was it all deliberate or did you genuinely forget like how you made it seem? Although I can't for the life of me really see anybody holding so much money and just forgetting all about it.
It was intentional. I just didn't think I'd make out like this. How many people will you actually donate to? Is there a certain amount? If so, I'd rather just take up offers for investments and then we can both just make money. Although I have no idea what we'd even be doing, so let's come up with a business plan for the next month....? Haha. You probably could find somebody better to invest in.
Don't say that! I'm sure you're worth while. I myself can't even find something to invest in here. There's too many options and you don't know what pays off. |

So what exactly you gained bitcoin? You mined it, bought it, receive as a gift? 20 bitcoins couple years ago prior to 2013 wasn't that highly valued anyway. I am surprised that you only have that many.
I did all three! What kind of investments will you take part in with all that spare money?
Good question. Really not sure. Probably ones devoted to raising bitcoin's price. Question: how exactly did you find out Bitcoin was up to almost 1k if you forgot all about bitcoin? I'm certain bitcoin doesn't get any real kind of media attention so you couldn't have found out about it on CNN or something. Or did you? Maybe I'm wrong. I'm fairly new to all of this.
I didn't actually forget. It's been on my mind. It just wasn't a burning priority to check the price every minute of every second. I did what the rulebook said. "Wait a few years to cash in". That's exactly what I did. |

Can i get some of your wealth? Just a little present or gift this coming christmas i will be so happy if you send me some amount.
13KDMguw8u2taRJMuLNvkfTSrnaQtVPP4c
Hope im one of the lucky person this xmas
Are you a low income home owner? Struggling with your job? Anything special you need this holiday season? Just give me a tiny background story and maybe I'll help you out! $15k? spare some change for the better future? joke :p I'd like to ask you what are your plans with those 15k in btc? Are you going to invest or maybe just hold? What do you think what will be the highest price for btc in 2017 and what are your plans in the future regarding btc? I'm definitely just going to donate a little, invest a little, but hold a lot! I'm not worried at all! I think the price should be at least $850. My future with btc is mainly gonna be holding. I wanna hope that I can invest. I'm just not sure but my advice is if you wanna invest, do your research. Really get to know what you wanna support and know how much you could really rake in from the investment!
Why not use that money to start a new businees on your own or in bitcoin,and helping others is one way of giving back all the blessings that you recieved in your life.
Hm! Definitely sounds like a plan! I just don't know what to do for a business! I'm not very tech savvy. I'm not really into writing. I also don't like accounting. We'll see! I'm sure there's something that'll fit my personality and skill level! |
