When I become mature enough to leave PTC sites because its wasting my time then I come up to search the word "how to earn online" thats the time when I hear about bitcoin opportunities but hesitant if this bitcoin thing can be the big deal and now I'm glad that I'm into this forum to know more about bitcoin.
I am also the one who entered into bitcoin world after experiencing PTC industry. But I have not left my PTC sites completely yet because I am still making some decent profits with my referrals.

I guess PTC sites and faucets are not having big differences, I found bitcoin faucets when I was searching for new PTC sites. Through faucets I slowly started learning bitcoins and joined here.

A friend of mine introduced me to the bitcoin world and told me to make an account here. So I did. I wasnt interested initially because of the low price but always loved the idea of it. I knew that the price would grow but I was short on money otherwise I'd have jumped in a looong time ago.
i think there is maximum bitcoin users get awareness by their friends i also get awareness about bitcoin through my friend and he guide me about bitcoin that what is usage of bitcoin and how to get profit from bitcoin trading and i start to use bitcoin now i am a trader of bitcoin and earning money in big amount through bitcoin trading.
The same case happened to me. My boyfrend get interested in bitcoin and mostly cause of he loves online gambling and with bitcoin it's possible to not spend money from your salary and play with that coins which you get from faucets. After he found this site and invited me to join.

Are you a bitcoin fan?
Do you spend a lot of time on bitcoin? Reading news, trading, or even writing your own analysis.
But how did you first hear about bitcoin?
Is it some articles you read about? Or just from a friend who has traded bitcoin for a long time?

It just shared by my friend located in india who is bitcoin enthusiast. He sent me a link  which is bitcointalk.org then told me to register first before I sign in, then  I do what He said, after that if I'm not busy, I must try to read what bitcoin is then that's it.!

Actually I think I was redirected to an article about BTC and at first I didn't know what the heck was that and it was really overwhelming to go through all that information but it was worth it in the end.I think the article was about a BTC exchange Cheesy

I heard about bitcoin four years ago, through an article in a local tech site. I then started to learn about it, any gain some satoshis by faucets.
Then I found this forum and it changed everything. Now I know I can find here answers to any question related to bitcoin.

I heard Bitcoin first from my friend. He told me I could print for my money at home. I later found out that it was not so easy.
Over time I started to research bitcoin more. Especially the bitcointalk forum was very useful. I still have a lot to learn.

Same thing happened to me too, but that isn't how I found Bitcoin.. Sadly there are so many websites posting information about Bitcoin like how it is used against citizens, how "terrorists used Bitcoin to buy their equipment and arsenal" and stuff, I mean come on, if it wasn't Bitcoin it was dollars and they could've still done it easily... Maybe this will change soon..

Not really important where or how we found out about bitcoin, as most of the people were trying to earn some money online and they stumbled upon BTC what matters what kept us coming back day after day and staying behind the system? at least for me was because bitcoin is absolutely blind unlike fiat(especially dollar with that all seeing eye).
Bitcoin never asks you where you from or how old are you, it is just simply executing commands, pure human connection.

First time I heard about Bitcoin this was when I was searching for a way to hide your money from the government without opening bank accounts in distant places.
Lol, indeed from the beginning you're looking for how to hide money and your identity, I think bitcoin is the only method to do the things you want it. Lol

Hiding your money to the government is not easy when you put your money online, even if you put it in bitcoin, there is a trail since you will have to buy bitcoins in an exchange sites and the government are regulating bitcoin exchange sites. Better save it in the safe of your house, just to be safe from the eyes of the government. Even money laundering can be traceable when you are hot in the eyes of the government.

PTC was a good earning source some time before. but when bitcoin introduced not only PTC but so may other stes are RIP now. i heard about bitcoins some months before but i am happy that still it is not too late. i am still confident that i will get a good profit from bitcoin in next few months because i am hold a good amount of bitcoin now and hope it will be give me good profit after some time.

I think if you want to make a complete tutorial and describes in detail the bitcoin network of friends. I'm sure they would be interested in using bitcoin. people do not know about bitcoin. because they confuse to start from where

Hiding your money to the government is not easy when you put your money online, even if you put it in bitcoin, there is a trail since you will have to buy bitcoins in an exchange sites and the government are regulating bitcoin exchange sites[1]. Better save it in the safe of your house, just to be safe from the eyes of the government. Even money laundering can be traceable when you are hot in the eyes of the government.

Or you can simply buy from someone so you won't leave any trail except for the transaction history. Besides, there would always be TXID no matter what way you buy bitcoins. If you create your own wallet, the government wouldn't know that it belongs to you since creating your own wallet doesn't require any ID verification.

You can even get a discount from someone if you're going to buy from him personally. When you use an exchange site, you would pay a standard fee regardless of how much bitcoins are you buying/selling.

Then we should guide them. We can make it little by little because everything has a process. Not all people are geeks and computer literate so there is a difficulty on teaching them but we can do it successfully if we are really wiling and dedicated to teach them.

Bitcoin never asks you where you from or how old are you, it is just simply executing commands, pure human connection.

You have a point but it is also important how people started to engage in bitcoin and why they engaged in it. These are very important stories that will inspire new users in bitcoin to join. If we leave those stories behind then there is no way the newbies can relate and be at home with bitcoins. With the collected stories as to how users started to engage in bitcoin the new users will be more inspired and will be more active in using bitcoin in their daily lives.

Me too I'm a bitcoin fan and I will be always a fan and user of it because it helped me out with my finances. And most of the time I spend a lot of time with bitcoin when I was still not busy yet but right now I'm on a project development here in my place so my time in bitcoin has been deducted. I heard it out from my peers.
