I started using bitcoin since 2015, but I wasn't serious on it. I just wanted to know why my friend rally loved bitcoin. Then I found the truth that earning bitcoin for newbie is rally hard. so I stopped from it.

Then, In February of 2016 I really needed money, so I started to earn bitcoin again, and now here I am.

I started to use the bitcoin when I chatted with a mate on skype, he told me about it and here I'm.
I'm now already using the bitcoin for a while and I'm really loving it, I use it for the profit and to buy things.

It still works fine on my end here, must be your connection

Anyway,I filled the survey and It took me about 5 minutes to type and arrange the story into pieces

I dunno why everyone starts typing their story on this topic though :-/

I started using Bitcoin in 2012 when HumbleBundle started to accept bitcoin as one of their payment option
