i always tell people to not use faucets ever, even as a newbie and the funny thing is that i found out about bitcoin through faucets Cheesy
some day someone on some forum was talking about earning lots of bitcoin from this site (it was a faucet) and then you can buy stuff with it easily and lot of other advertisement and i started using bitcoin that way and have never looked back.

Good advise dude, because you have an experience with faucets and it is not effective and efficient so you prohibited anyone start joining into bitcoin world .
But i know someone from my friend told me that there is someone in our region that start to enter bitcoin world from zero with faucets and take it as a little capital on trading but for now he was a successful trader. So inspired

I was searching for a particular tutorial on youtube regarding an investment site back in 2013. Then i saw this video about creating a bitcoin paper wallet, i watched... but It wasn't clear to me that time, so i just copied the url, and closed it.  Sadly I only got to watch it again after a year... but still didn't take action until 2015.

My wife always opens the mail first, that includes the credit cards bills.
I could not make a single purchase online without her knowing what it was.
Searching a way to get the power over my money back, or at least a small fraction of it, I found bitcoin!
It's perfect, since she has no interest in technical stuff.
When I buy a few coins now, I just have to tell her its for something cryptic, then she roles her eyes and switches into the not-interested-mode.
I'm so happy!!!

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?

Share your experience with us. Grin

I heard about bitcoin from a faucet ad (I didn't had the adblock installed or I probably paused the Adblock running)
Maybe is a good thing but I first heard about altcoin then about bitcoin lol.

Initially I did not believe it and do not know about bitcoin, I think bitcoin as well as others that can only last a few years, and after I gradually learned to understand and join in some forums, especially the forum, and try to find a bit of BTC from faucet, giveaway and after feeling the first payment, and from there I started to believe bitcoin until now,

I can't remember exactly how I first time hear about bitcoin. Maybe it was when some people advertised to mine bitcoins with pc. Then I rember that bitcoin price started to rise and nees sites writed about it. But I was very sceptical about bitcoin and future of it. I was thinking that bitcoin hype will be short and later it will collapse. But it didn't happened and I started to use bitcoin after few years.

The first time I heard about bitcoin by a friend I got curious but I ignore it since that time I am busy at work. But, we met again and he is not working at all while me working all day long just to earn a sum of money while he is just travelling around the country that time I do research what's behind on this bitcoin.

I just saw it on facebook and some of my friend also on facebook told me that he also know bitcoin and he's already using it he told me some detailed information about it and I've become really interested to know more about it so I've made some reading from an articles and some posts from other forum other than this and he told me to explore this forum so i can learn more but I adapted quickly because I was once participating to some forum since a year ago .

I have heard bitcoin first because of my friend. He asked me if I want to earn some money by doing bitcoin here in this forum, on first I don't have any idea about it but he explained everything that I have to know about bitcoin, my first time here in this forum I was like, "what is this thing, what is this thread all about, how will I earn money here by just posting." something like that because honestly I didn't get all the stuffs that my friend explained to me about this forum that is why I have read topics or post in the Beginners help and it helped me a lot. That is why I'm here right now in this forum answering your post and earning bitcoin, thanks to my friend.

Good thing you discover bitcoin, though we are 2016 now but still there are plenty of room for bitcoin to grow. The future cannot be foreseen but by believing the future is positive we can always start investing now and be successful like the others have enjoyed.

How did I hear about bitcoin? I heard with my classmates. They talked about the lost 1btc of my classmates. So in the first place I am curious what is bitcoin? Why do they know this bitcoin? How do they know? So I researched about bitcoin, read some blogs, asked few of my friends who have enough knowledge about bitcoin.

it really shows that you are really determined to earn money because according to you, you just made a research about it when you are just looking for ways to earn online well for you that's really great because in my opinion there's only few people will try to use and do something like working faucet which seems do not have a guarantee to give you some amount of satoshi especially when you just first time introduced in to bitcoin and people who will believe and understand what they have just read online are only few . you seem to be cool bro .

yeah i also heard from my friend about bitcoin and i think maximum people do not know about bitcoin so we should support bitcoin and aware to people about bitcoin because bitcoin is very useful currency in this modern age and people are getting benefits from bitcoin.

I actually heard about Bitcoin some years back but I was not even moved by what I was seeing as I basically see something about it on another forum in the investment section making it seems its a quick way to get rich and considering what I have heard before in the case of Liberty reserve, I didnt bother considering it until when I had free time and access to the internet, then I started understanding it little by little at my own pace...
