The first time I heard about Bitcoin was on a technology related image board.

It was right around the time I built my first gaming computer that I really got into it. I did a Google search for how to make money using my computer.

A post on overclock.net popped up and that is what sparked my descent down the rabbit hole.

A very wealthy client advised me to invest in bitcoin, I ignored it for a while but he kept trying to convince me about what bitcoin will become. I did a bit of research & then decided to bite the bullet & buy in. I haven't stopped investing since then. Buy & HODL is the way forward, hope for a great future.

One of my client in the Upwork asked me to write some articles for him. The topic was about bitcoin and I was completely sure it was something like a gaming chip or something like that. Then I googled it straight away. And the rest is history along the bitcoin network.

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?

Wew, Yes I spend most of my time to read things about bitcoin to know the price movement. But I know bitcoin from the internet, exactly from resolves captcha sites  named kolotibablo.com. thank you

I heard bitcoin for the first time last 2013 when i join a group in a social networking site where the members of that group are earning bitcoin. At first i was curious about it, on how they earn from bitcoin but i was not interested that time. Last year 2015 i joined that group again because i was starting to think on how to earn my own money. And there I start earning bitcoin for myself.

I don't clearly remember but I think it was after browsing some webs, an interesting new appeared concerning bitcoins. After reading it I just had to investigate more and more Smiley
much needed experience of the users of bitcoin how they came into bitcoin and it can be implemented into a method
to attract new users. seemed ads on various sites will also be very good for the spread and promotion of bitcoin

I heard about bitcoin from an interview of a local bitcoin miner which was published in a local newspaper. Then I came to know something amazing that money can be mined through a computer program and people are earning from it.

Then I started exploring google and various money making forums to know more about bitcoin and the ways to earn from it. That simple interview of an unknown person opened up a new world of money making for me.

My friend told me that he is earning bitcoin, at that time I thought it is waste of time and money but when he showed me his proof of his earnings I really found it interesting.
