Yes man, their fees are very high. They will kill me. But you are a senior member, so there will not be that much problem to you to earn those back, because of the bit-x signature.

Doing signature campaigns is often not so easy as people think, you need to write significant content in the provided word limit with other limitations in order for the post to qualify as a valid post, if the post does not meet the required quota, it is not counted as a post for the sig campaign. Most of the posts are often not considered, making it hard for people to earn that btc. Legendary & Hero Members get 0.0012 BTC per post, Senior Members get 0.0010 BTC and Full Members are paid 0.0007 BTC per post

So provided the whole forum, around 150 posts a week is not big deal. BTW there is a question coming in my mind, is there a daily limit to post on the forum before our account gets banned for posting. I've seen many people complaining about it in the meta forum.

Theses questions of limitation on posts should be ask on another topic thread such as begginers and help area. But to answer your question there isnt a daily limit, but if we see it to very spam like, I hit the tab on the bottom right "report to moderator" and if the moderator deletes your posts more then 2 times, you`ll see a banned account in red.

I was thinking to get a XAPO debit card but the fees are too high in my opinion. I will just wait until a better alternative with lower fees arrives.

I think very few people opt for such services, cashing out your investments to buy groceries could possibly the worst case scenario for investors man. The transaction fees is much more than debit/credit when using the btc debit card, I understand that because exchange rates are also calculated. Bitcoin could be a payment gatweway to pay for goods and services online but the logic of buying btc from fiat, then withdrawing btc just to treat it like fiat. WHAT'S DAH POINT?

Easy, in the past I had to cash out my bitcoins on an exchange and after the conversion had to have the funds transferred to my bank account. All of this involve fees and time. The bank transfer part can easily take 2 or more days depending on the exchange. With a debit card I no longer need to do this. All I do is swipe my card. Everything happens in the background and it works out cheaper. Also, my bitcoins is available instantly, no need to transfer it anywhere first and or to cash it out or anything like that, I just take my card out and swipe it. As easy as that. Just a note: The above only work if you are with somebody like Xapo or Bit-X where your bitcoin wallet is directly linked to your card. The preloaded cards do not work like this and often its easier to just cash out than getting funds onto those cards.

Recently we can see many debit cards, also one of them is from coinomat, it's also the bit-x, but we must check the fees. It's not bad to have one, i think to get one in future

I have never understood the point of Bitcoin debit cards myself either. Bitcoin has the technology to make transactions from your phone to phone or various other devices. I think Bitcoin debit cards are only here for now while the technology is still in its pre-adaptation phase.

Signatures? How about learning a skill... I don't care either way. Everybody has to make a living somehow.

The fees yeah are very high if we don't earn too much. Which country are you in? There are many services that you send to them and they can send you the card to you country.

Since my country still under develop so many of them still not interest on bitcoin. So it means if they not know bitcoin , they will know bitcoin debit card neither. But honestly I don't like bitcoin debit card since we can transfer everywhere and everytime with single device. .......
Just a note: The above only work if you are with somebody like Xapo or Bit-X where your bitcoin wallet is directly linked to your card. The preloaded cards do not work like this and often its easier to just cash out than getting funds onto those cards.
So only Xapo or Bit-X that implement with debit card ?

Can we know which bitcoin debit card are you using? How was the process until getting/receiving it? Since my country still under develop so many of them still not interest on bitcoin. So it means if they not know bitcoin , they will know bitcoin debit card neither. But honestly I don't like bitcoin debit card since we can transfer everywhere and everytime with single device. .......

So only Xapo or Bit-X that implement with debit card ? It's not just about spreading the bitcoin in the country you are in, but making purchases with you btc, i understand in this way.

So only Xapo or Bit-X that implement with debit card ? No there are others who also offer debit cards but they work on a pre-load basis. This means that you have to send bitcoin to them and they then sell it to convert it to say US$ which they then load onto the card. So the debit card actually works like a prepaid card. There are also fees involved for this loading of the card which makes it more expensive. With Bit-x and Xapo you do not need to send bitcoins to anyone. The debit cards they have are directly linked to your wallet. So each time you make a purchase on the card the value of that transaction is taken directly off your wallet. So no need to first convert the bitcoin to fiat, it all happens in the background when you make a transaction.

Coinjar has also released a bitcoin debit card, although i belive its only availble for Australian customers. I've had mine for a few months now and it comes in handy. It does have a $2 AUD fee when used at any ATM which is a bit anoying but i guess you pay for the convenience.
Could you explain the whole functioning and procedure of the bitcoin debit card? I find it very hard to understand how it comes handly unless you're using it for trading/exchange with someone who accepts bitcoins and to what I know the whole bitcoin system is not very out other/popular in the world. Seems impractical to me.
