DO U EARN MORE THAN $1

[From Above]

it has come to my attention that many ppl here who want to get rich without work through altcoins (they think BTC made ppl rich so now its their turn) think that they could actually become wealthy with cryptocurrency. Reality beyond the delusion is: they dont even earn US minimum wage.


What keeps people here ? ?

- u most likely cant get rich or wealthy - unless u r dan and invented the Steem money generating scheme for example.

U can get some beer money or pocket spending money participating in those schemes if u r a regular user.

But thats about it.

So like the Spoetnik has pointed out correctly, in general, a job at the McDonalds in fact makes u truly richer than participating in the altcoin hoax.

I just read that typical sig campaign earnings equals a day's minimum wage in India.  I don't know if that's true, but I'm pretty sure a day's wage in the US at McDonald's  would be doing pretty damn good in some countries.   So I think a lot of 3rd world people here can earn enough bitcoin here through altcoin trading to feed their degenerate gambling addictions and whatever else needs taken care of.

And then you know people lie about how much they earn. 

Most people here do it for fun, just like gambling.  I assume, like me, trading altcoins is in addition to regular real life work.

most here do just that
besides regular job earn some additional income from sig avatar trading sometimes little fun with gambling (football games only) and some extra work here from time to time

For me it is more like a hobby / slight obsession, still waiting for certain coins to skyrocket but not really banking on that, I am happy being part of this community and am looking forward to the time when it does break properly into the mainstream and I can say that I was there at the beginning.

I would love to have the confidence and skill to quit my full time job and move into trading but right now it isn't practical as there are no certainties in this game.

a perfect summary. same goes for me.
hobby/being part of the interesting community/i like to work with hardware while building a mining rig and maintaining in/selling buying and hoping to make little profit/since this all is risky as surfing during a tsunami i will keep my main job for while more

i just want to see the whole decentralized coin mining to go live in the mainstream world and show every1 that there are different ways of making payments

[funbarrel]

of course i earn that much money per day, i think i earn like 5-7 dollars daily, even though thats not a lot of money i think that such trading results are great

[fortunecrypto]

In my case I do it both as a part time job and to enhance my knowledge on crypto currency,it's like hitting two birds with one stone,you learn and the same time make money sharing knowledge on others,what you've learn from the others..

it is really great to work for bitcoins, to be honest i have never had an opportunity to do that though if i had a chance i would definitely work for bitcoins because it is like an investment for me

[ethereumhunter]

maybe many ppl have wrong in perception about bitcoin and altcoin so they think that they are rich. but if they have bitcoin and altcoin in the same time, i think they can try to trading and make some money rather than they only sit and watching. and i think they can make a stable profit in $ 0.5 or even more, they will get more than enough for their life.

People are mostly here for speculation. Gambling with altcoins on several exchanges is what makes this market running.
I'm doing this as well.And if you know what you're doing, and don't get greedy and don't take too much risk, there is some money to make.
However alts are not good for longterm investments.Trade them on a short term to make profits in fiat or use them to increase your BTC stash.

although i agree with most of Spoetnik posts, i think this is a little extreme...
most of the altcoins are just scams and that i agree, but not all. And you can make a good income if you learn about trading.

[BAGOBO]

I like forum because I can share what I know and people share that What I don't know ( great symbiosis )
Signature campaign is unique feature if I comparing with my own local forum. Because of it, I get earn more cash to help my college fee

[BTCLovingDude]

it has come to my attention that many ppl here who want to get rich without work

in one word those are "idiots". and sooner or later they will realize that.

through altcoins

i don't see the problem with this. trading altcoins is a good thing. you may not become a millionaire while trading them but you can make a decent amount of profit that you can call salary at the end of the month.

(they think BTC made ppl rich so now its their turn) think that they could actually become wealthy with cryptocurrency. Reality beyond the delusion is: they dont even earn US minimum wage.

as i said anybody who thinks he can magically get rich over night is an idiot. although people have gotten rich before when they bought bitcoin at <$10 and forgot and then sold at $700-$800+

i agree.
there are many different jobs that people can do and different paths they can take.
i believe you shouldn't look at altcoin market this negatively.

for example ethereum with all these negativity has brought me so much profit. i have bought eth when it was low and dumped it in the first pump and got out fast and never believed those spammers saying to the moon and all that other bullshit. was this a hoax? no, it is when you expect more out of these altcoins that they can provide.

[Spoetnik]

NO ..i make nothing at all !

I actually gave away most of my coins (anything with a live network still)

Dumped any altcoins i had then gave the small amount of Bitcoin to some Android dev guy.

Have nothing..
And have no interest in making "profits"

There is some serious talk lately about getting rid of sig campaigns because they incentivize low quality posting.  I would be disappointed because it's one of the unique features,  as you said, that makt this forum great.  Poor wage slaves and the unempoyed can at least earn something.   

And yes I think I earn over $1/day on the forum.

[jack1111]

I think most of Bitcointalk users joined the forum because they are interesting in cryptocurrencies , and because they believe that the Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies might be the future of money , but what is the problem if they earn money while they are learning about cryptos , I agree that a signature campaign and some twitter campaigns equal to monthly salary in some third world countries , but it might equals one or two days wage in other rich countries .
Some members try to earn from other methods like trading altcoins or blogging , but also this methods require you to be in this forum to track the latest news and updates .
Conclusion : as long your work related to Bitcoin or cryptos , you will need to be in this forum , whether your monthly wage $200 or $5000 .

[lordoliver]

I am sorry but I think you misunderstand the facts.
Blockchain Technologie is a completely new field like the internet/computer at the end of last century. Bitcoin can stay but will high likely not be the only coin, that stays. If you invest now in alts, you have the chance to invest in the next Apple or Microsoft to ridiculous low prices. I think, that everyone in this forum, that tries to stay up to date, invests a few bucks in the right coins and keeps the assets for 20 years, will have a (minimum) 100-fold ROI!

[Spoetnik]

I love how noobs think they are entitled to lip off veterans ALL THE TIME !

Ohhhh ohhh Veteran users.. you just "don't get" Crypto-Currencies and their legitness !

Right 

By the way he is right.. or i am am right (sorry i am getting confused)
YOU WILL make more money at McDonalds and don't sit there and bloody bullshit about it.
The majority is making more than $1,000 a month profit ?
I don't think so lying little ICO scammer frauds.

Besides who the fuck said you are ENTITLED to slither your selfish little sneaky greedy ass over here to
mutter some bullshit about crypto as your a excuse TO PROFIT ?
Fuck off !

Fuck you and your little shit coin ICO scammy profits bullshit.

And don't even bother bullshitting me with stories of how your such a supporter of Crypto.
Your liars .

Buy profit dump rinse repeat and talk shit crying FUD for bucks every damn step of the way.

Sleazy dregs lecturing us REAL supporters about being a supporter ?
I don't think so 

[klarki]

Earnings on the forum on the bounty, just as a small addition.
You can try to make money on the trade.
But developers shit coins to earn huge amounts of money on us.
