does trading in the market count? (aka, 'exchange services' Smiley ), or do you only count 'real goods and services' for the challenge?

Naturally, speculation in the currency market doesn't count.

I've drawn about BTC 350 in 3 weeks of releasing Bitcoin payment gateways and PHP utilities. Can I get a cookie?

For Sunday:


I earned .18 from bencoder and another tester downloading picture. I earned .12 cents from my art download commission. I earned 1.5 bitcoins as bounty prize.

That total up to 1.80 BTC. Not bad.

I can probably yank about 5 BTC a week out of the bots on betco.in by bluffing them to fold.  It's not stealing, right?  It takes forever, and my time is better spent doing something else.  Wink

Sooo not going to make it. I think earned something like 3 BTC at best. Oh well. But I think I will make more money next week given that I have higher price and better commission rate.


BTW, everyone who is part of this challenge is supposed to report how they're doing...at least one time each week...because ya know it's interesting.

It all boils down to helping, which most people I know say I'm damn good at.. a pain in the ass, but a profitable one.. Wink

Hint.. someone asks how I did that.. I tell them, they want to donate, I ask for 1 btc..

Need help with anything btw?
