Haven't earned 1btc yet myself Sad hopefully I will sometime this year though, been earning lots of fractions however which is great, even though being a millionaire with 1BTC would mean hyperinflation, if you can earn 1btc a day you're going to be very well off.

It took me around 100 days to make my first 1 btc but after that every thing got fast. So how long did it take you to make the first btc? and I would like to know how did you get those. I got mine mostly by selling services and small faucets Smiley

Edit: Buying doesn't count, So now that's out of the way the results would be interesting to see.

It was for about 30 minutes. That was the time to bought my first three bitcoins at virwox. It was my first time there and needed some time to understand all the process (and it was a little difficult to buy bitcoin at virwox because must be bought linden dollars first and then bitcoin with those).

If you join a campaign, you can earn 0.1 to 0.2 btc one month, then you may need 5 to 10 month to earn 1 btc.

Irrelevant.
Did you even read the post that you have quoted?
He clearly stated that buying doesn't count. People really need to stop spamming on the forum and start reading.

The signature campaign will eventually help you get there. Just be patient and do not spend any of those valuable coins. Keep in mind that there will only ever be 21M of them.  Smiley
I doubt that anyone will ever become a millionaire with 1 or 10 BTC (unless everything is backed by Bitcoin, which is improbable).

If you join a campaign, you can earn 0.1 to 0.2 btc one month, then you may need 5 to 10 month to earn 1 btc.
That's incorrect. Some participants from Bit-X such as Amph earn much more than that. So the time could be reduced to 2-3 months.

i have started earning bitcoin the same way as everyone else and from faucets, and then switched to earning from signature campaigns. so it took me somewhere around the same 100 days to make 1 bitcoin.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

It took me around 10-50 days to earn my first bitcoin. I started with altcoin trading, then ICO investing. I also did some freelance work to earn some bitcoin but I managed to earn a little bit more than 1 btc.

What is the difference between providing a service, getting paid in fiat and buying bitcoin with that fiat and providing a service and getting paid in bitcoin?

Bit short sighted to exclude buying bitcoin..

Today it's obvious you can't make 1 btc easily, but if the question is retroactive, aka in the old days, it took me under a minute to
get 5 btc from bitcoin faucet. Now if only we could turn back time..

cheers

Yeah it's crazy how things have changed. 5 BTC from a faucet today would be like digging gold out of the ground which is not lying deeper than 1 meter.

The main thing I want to see here is after how much time do people start to sell out services for btc, So on average it takes 100 days(so far) for a person to make 1 btc by providing services etc. What bitcoin is lacking is this, That is why I did not include the buying because buying is not like accepting the bitcoins for something.

the price fluctuation maybe, if we are facing a very strong swings play between manipulators, the pric can fluctuate a lot and by the time you buy your bitcoin with fiat, there is the possibility of a small-medium loss

When I started mining, with my rig, it took about 30 days. Then I got one of those Avalon puppies (giant metal oceanliner anchor nowadays) and was cranking out 2 BTC a day for about a month. Life was good.

It took me around 1 entire year after trading, some gambling, some alt mining.. good ol hustling. Take into account tho that back then BTC was 700 per coin so it was harder to get some satoshis. Thank god that now it's cheaper so you can make 1 BTC in less time, good times to be a pioneer.

I am in a similar position, my main source of bitcoins is signature campaign income. I gamble just for peanuts so I earn very little from it.
It take me couple months to earn 1 BTC but it is fine as I treat it like a hobby and wait for bitcoin to be more known and widely used.
Maybe I will buy some bitcoin before halving next year to sell it later as price goes up, who knows Smiley

Haven't earned 1btc yet myself Sad hopefully I will sometime this year though, been earning lots of fractions however which is great, even though being a millionaire with 1BTC would mean hyperinflation, if you can earn 1btc a day you're going to be very well off.

It shouldn't be that difficult to earn 1bitcoin in a month for you as a Legendary member. I don't think many people will earn 1bitcoin a day though unless they run a bitcoin business or are miners.

If you mean through signature campaign, it takes time. It doesn't pay that much, and you need to spend way too much time, to the point a normal job it's better, you could put some of the money in Bitcoin. Also, Legendary members here are underpaid, they get the same rates as Hero even tho Legendary it's much harder to reach, sometimes the same Sr Members.

For me, it's around 100-100 if I could do the best on Signature Campaign.
Especially for Hero Member, they'll just need around 70 days. [CMIIW]

Back around the early stages of bitcoin, I got mine when a friend sent it on my wallet. I don't know what to do with it though. I still believe in other payment processors like liberty reserve then. Until it got to the stage where it hit $1000 and that's where I realize I made the biggest mistake of dumping those coins.
