If you have just a little bitcoin, you can use blockchain.info with 2FA enabled. Or you can download Multibit or Electrum.
If you have a considerable amount, put most of them on an offline wallet or a paper wallet, and put a small amount of bitcoin on blockchain.info or Multibit or Electrum for your daily consumption.

I just got an email from coinbase saying "Thank you for contacting Coinbase support. I have reviewed your account and will pass this on to one of my supervisors to ensure it is resolved."
Is this a good sign?
Nothing good, nothing bad. It simply means your ticket has been passed to another support person to handle. You can only keep on waiting for the response. |

what about cex.io? I've read somewhere on forum that it's good. I've checked out the site and it looks dissent, I didn't register thou.
cex.io offers OVERPRICED and Never-ROI mining contracts. The maintenance fee is 50+% which means they only give you less than half of your profit and take the rest as fees for electricity and datacenter upkeep. Their GHS are way overpriced, 0.002++BTC while other cloud mining contracts offer 1GH at 0.001 with lesser maintenance fees. At current difficulty and bitcoin price, 1 GH/s hashrate will bring you roughly $0.0045 a day and $0.135 a month (assuming difficulty won't go up). https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficultyCex.io is charging you $0.105 per GH/s per month. https://cex.io/maintenanceSo the maintenance fee is roughly 78%, or in other words, you only get 22% of your mining revenue after the maintenance fee. |

The adfly redirection is annoying and you have made a typo "Enter your Bitcoin address to get started. This faucet pays trough microwallet.org" on your bitcoin page.

freebitco.in, good faucet with some banner advertising. I can advice for you this faucet, and subscribe to qoinpro.com that gives you some bitcoin everyday  Qoinpro? If I recall correctly, you can only get a few satoshi from it every day unless you have many referrals. Even though you don't need to do anything for it, what is the point of getting those several satoshi? |

So I tried out some faucets earlier today, just as an experiment to see how much Satoshi I could actually earn and how long it would take. So, I went to microwallet.org and opened up every last one of the faucets it linked me too (the ones that worked) and I also did it with land of bitcoins or w/e (there was some overlap). Had about 25-30 different pages opened and for bout 5 hours straight I went and completed each of the 30ish faucets on queue. Most could be completed once an hour, some were 15-30 mins, and 2 were 5 mins I believe. My microwallet is now sitting at 7.4k satoshi (roughly 2 cents) and amongst the other faucets not linked to microwallet there is an accumulated 11k satoshi (roughly 3 cents). so over 5 hours of solving captchas i earned a whopping 5 cents. Now granted, I didnt spend the whole 5 hours solving captchas, but I did spend bout an hour hunting them all down, and then another 25 mins each hour doing the captchas to claim the satoshi. So all in all, faucets are a complete waste of time right now. You never know though.. That 5 cents could explode in value to 5$ or more in no time.
Yup, you can only get some cents for spending an hour on faucets. It is much more productive to spend your time on something else like learning and working. |

Most efficient way would be to sell products and services for bitcoin, but it is not suitable for everyone.
Joining a sig campaign would also be a nice way, as the risk is pretty low if you joined a campaign with previous payments and a trusted manager.
Trading, investing or gambling can bring you great profit but can also bring you big loss in a short period of time.

Hi,
I tried googling this but I did not find anything. Figured this would be the best place to ask because of the amount of people here who have a lot of knowledge about this.
So, recently someone offered to make custom BTC adresses for a few people and it seemed really neat to have one for me, but I'm relatively new to bitcoin and someone brought up the issue that if this person has the private key(He said this is what he sends to you, and how you can get the address. Don't really understand it) to your address, he can steal your bitcoin. I have no clue on how this works, and if it is actually to safe to use the address I might get?
Would be nice if somebody could explain it in a noob friendly way. My native language is not english so sorry if I screwed that up
Yes, if someone has the private key, he can spend the bitcoin on the address anytime he wants. If you want to get a vanity address safely from someone else, you should look for a person to generate a split key vanity address for you. Or, you can run vanitygen yourself to generate the address all by yourself. |

Does anyone know of a wallet similar to circle? If you don't know, circle has the option to instantly cashout your bitcoins for $ to your bank account. The issue is, I'm canadian and circle doesn't accept canadian banks.
I don't think there are any similar service for Canadian bank account at this moment. You either need to get a US bank account to use Coinbase or Circle, or you can use a Canadian exchange like Cavirtex. |

3. Are all the adresses (who would be generated) from 0 to 0xFFF... already generated? Could I land on wallets that are not existent if I bruteforce numbers?
There are 2^160 addresses in total. That number is incredibly huge. Let's say everyone in the world (7 billion people) are creating 10000 addresses every second and the addresses created are all unique, it will take 6.620559 * 10^26 years to generate all addresses (=2^160 /7000000000 / 10000 / 60 / 60 / 24 / 365). For comparison, our universe has an age of 13.798* 10^9 years only ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_the_universe). So any address I search in blockchain.info for example is whether not generated yet, or is generated and empty? And after looking around a bit, and taking in count all BTC addresses with actual balance, I have rounded up that if someone decided to bruteforce the whole numbers existing that generate private keys, they have a chance of ~~ 1 / (3 x 10^38) of finding a wallet with actual balance. You can search any valid address on blockchain.info. Among the 2^160 valid addresses, only a tiny fraction of them has an associated private key generated. Among them, only a fraction of them has been used. For example, address 1BitcoinEaterAddressDontSendf59kuE is a valid address but no one has generated a private key for it. Every person can send bitcoin to it, but no one can send bitcoin out of it (unless someone generate the private key with a incredibly tiny chance). On the other hand, I have the private key for the address in my profile, but I haven't spent any of the bitcoin on it yet. I see! Thanks anyhow for the explanation and for your time! I think I understand now the general idea of how this is. One last thing, you wouldn't know anywhere where I could find a script that automatically finds the BTC address out of a known Private Key? You could go to https://brainwallet.github.io/#generator, click "private key" in the 1st row, enter the private key in the 5th row and you will get the bitcoin address in the 6th row. Or you could refer to http://davanum.wordpress.com/2014/03/17/generating-a-bitcoin-private-key-and-address/ and slightly modify it to get a simple code to convert the private key to bitcoin address. |

i don't think OP can get nice amount of BTC if he still a newbie  For the Bitin.io or 777coin sig campaign, he can get 0.00004 btc per post. At min posting requirement (20 posts per week), he can get 0.0008 btc a week. It will be less than what he can get from faucets (50 cents a week according to his post), but the task is much simpler as he just need to make 3 posts a day, instead of typing lots of captcha. At max posting limit (100 posts per week), he can get 0.004 btc a week. The payment rate will be higher as he gets leveled up to jr member and members and he will have a lot more choices then. |

IMHO, the $10000 target is achievable. It won't be in 2015 but it could be accomplished a few more years later may be sometime around 2017 after the block halving in 2016.

Right now, freebitco.in is able to get 0.71500004 BTC a day from adbit.co for having two adspaces.
Also, the site is having several other google ads.

Mining isn't worth it anymore, unless you invest in the more expensive ASIC ones..which can be up to thousands of $$.
Not true. You can buy a Bitmain ANTMINER S3+ 453 GH/s miner right now for 0.528 BTC (about $172) and it will probably mine about 0.9 BTC Interesting, didn't know that. Thanks! How long would it take to mine .9 BTC though? Most of the bitcoins will be mined in the first 6 months. Because of the increasing difficulty, the revenue falls every 2 weeks. Eventually, the electricity cost will exceed the revenue. How did you get the 0.9 btc figure? With an input of 453GH/s, 355W, $0.1 per kWh, 0% pool fee on https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/calculator, it shows the miner will be able to mine ~0.17 btc if difficulty increment is 10%, ~0.37 btc if difficulty increment is 5%. |
