Is there any way for those poor fellows like me, equipped with an Intel Dual core 2.2 GHz CPU and no GPU and no Bitcoins in their wallet to buy hashes, start mining some Bitcoin in tiny amounts?
Instead of mining bitcoin, you can mine some "CPU-coins" with your CPU. Check http://cpucoinlist.com/ for details. |

Check the date on OP.
It's from a year ago.
Bitcoin price was around $100 in mid-2013. So, OP earned around $30 from faucets in a few weeks.  |

2. Mining Hubs: speaking of mining hubs, GHash.io and the others all depend on physical hardware to do the mining. In the event the center is compromised or physical hardware damaged there's not much of a failover for this. Unlike data which can be backed up in a redundant data center in another city, these hubs are susceptible to many types of disaster.
Miners should have set up a few failover pools (easily done with cgminer or bfgminer), so that when the primary pool is down, the hashrate will be pointed to secondary pools automatically. So, problems on one or a few public pools shouldn't cause too much problem... |

then id turn on my miner and get the whole 25btc per 10 minutes...
HAHA, exactly what my first thoughts were! This would not work as the difficulty would still be high. I am indeed surprised to see quite a number of people didn't realize that and believed they can get huge profits mining bitcoin in that period... |

The easiest way is signatures, they pay a lot of realiable bitcoin and it is more profitable than faucets.
Also it encourages you to keep informed about bitcoin.
Exactly. Newbies would just get frustrated after spending an hour on faucets and making a few cents. On the other hand, newbies can make reasonable amount of bitcoin with sig programs. |

If you put in significant time to "just post because I am getting paid" as a newbie then you will have difficulty spending time on the forums actually learning about bitcoin.
Don't forget about the annoying 360 seconds limit for people with <= 14 activity. They should have "significant time" to check the forums, while they are waiting to make their posts.  |

Any updates?
I'm also interested into becoming an affiliate on the website

I know there has been more and more media stories about people who post things in chats or facebook or craiglist etc... and the real world law has gotten involved more and more. it might be, if you can copy all the writing from the thief, or if facebook saves that writing, then maybe that might be useful, as well you will want to try and find out who the thief is in real life, so need a detective or internet detective to find that for you, if you cant find it your self. seems there is a fair amount of work to catch these thiefs over the internet, and we should be paid for all the work we have to do to go after them, so keep all receipts and keep notes about how much time you spend/waste on trying to get your money back. you will need proofs for everything likely.
In fact, there are people providing and seeking doxxing service in the service section here on bitcointalk. |

Writing down your key is not a good idea as even one "typo" would cause your entire "key" (it wouldn't actually be a key anymore) worthless
Actually, a private key is just a big number (up to 2^256, or more correctly 0xFFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFF FFFE BAAE DCE6 AF48 A03B BFD2 5E8C D036 4141). So with a typo, you would get another valid key, which statistically speaking should be almost sure to be associated with an empty address. |

TBH, unless you have free electricity, I don't see any point mining altcoins with your old 4670 as the hashrate would be very low...

It is cool that you have a list of so many faucets, but have you considered just how much you would make from using faucets?
It may make sense, if you can get hundreds or thousands of refs, which is exactly what OP is trying to do with his site. |

Many people got to know about bitcoin after mass media mentioning bitcoin in late 2013.
Some of them probably bought some bitcoin, together with the willy bot, drove the price up IMO.

Thanks again for the full help brothers.
May I know hilariousandco, how did you calculate the time "last Tuesday and 24th of June" ?
Every period starts when unix time reaches a multiple of 1210000. The current period starts at unix time 1402390000 (=1159*1210000), ie. 10 Jun 2014 08:46:40 GMT The next period starts at unix time 1403600000 (=1160*1210000), ie. 24 Jun 2014 08:53:20 GMT |
