I don't understand why earning and employment are different options, as if you're employed, you get coins by earning them. Still, interesting to see buyers and earners at the same level in terms of votes so far. I thought buying would be a clear winner, but that's not the case. Some are also not actively obtaining BTC but holding from a long time ago, when they earned/bought/mined/won/used faucets.

Yeah, most likely in the beginning, majority might have earn their first BTC thru signature campaigns. And then they ventured into trading and gambling and evolved into buying then becoming a HODLer.
I think in the early times signature campaigns were still less or not well known and I think faucet sites were more popular than them. It can be because we were receiving a generous amount of coins, as their value was still low. It is like it was giving us an illusion. Another good thing about the faucet before, is that payments on them are made straight to our desired crypto wallets. It was only sad that things have changed through the years and many faucet sites have now closed down. Signature campaigns on the other hand, are now the ones which are booming. I guess this is because cryptos are now popular, so a lot of start-up projects in this field are also opening up and they see a potential in signature campaigns to promote their brands.

There are many ways to get bitcoins without buying from exchanges. I usually participate in different bounty campaigns from where i get USDT, Altcoins (Tokens) and sometimes bitcoin. Faucets just waste your time the amount you get from faucets is very little. Nowadays mostly people buy bitcoins, only few people earning or paid in bitcoins in this forum.

I'm interested in how most forum members receive their Bitcoins. We have got most of ours over the years with faucets, earning sites and also payments for various gigs.
What about you?
My first ever bitcoin was a gift from a friend who was really eager to see me grow in the world of crypto. Maybe "gift" option should have been added to the poll because people can actually give and receive bitcoins as gifts. I bought my next bitcoins through an exchange after I became convinced that I was in the right place. The bitcoins bought then appreciated, leaving me with something really reasonable. Aside receiving bitcoin as a gift and buying some too, I also earn bitcoins from working for some freelancing companies who pay in bitcoins. This is how I receive bitcoins, I believe many other people receive bitcoins this way too.

I'm already confused by all the ways I get Bitcoins to my wallet. It all started with a bounty, here on the forum. We shared links on Facebook, Twitter. We saved up stakes and then they exchanged them for campaign tokens. I remember that the campaign signature was not always for Bitcoins, more often for tokens, which we immediately sold for Bitcoin. I also received Bitcoins for participating in contests and giveaways. And now this is mainly the signature campaigns. There are so many ways people on the forum here do get their bitcoin and one of it is through payments from signature campaigns and bounty, some times you could participate in a contest here on the forum and you get rewarded in bitcoin and some persons can gift you bitcoin, while you can further earn bitcoin doing other jobs outside the forum.

I got my bitcoin through investment. And I think my first purchase was the first of January 2023. And I was like wow! "I have finally gotten bitcoin" and since then I have been investing on bitcoin and accumulating more. But we all know that many forum users only rely on signature campaigns.

Most have said they have bought with a very very small percentage being the miners which doesn’t surprise me. I really like these new auction style sites that let you bid for Bitcoin but one thing that isn’t displayed on here I didn’t think was P2P item for bitcoin exchange or vice versa

Employment would be an actual job at a Company that pays you salary in Crypto. Earning is more like Faucets, Pay-to-click, Gigs, signature campaigns, trading, micro-earning type sites, etc.

There is one currently an ungoing platform through which I earn my Bitcoin, thou I have not yet withdraw my Bitcoin go my wallet because I have not reached withdrawal amount. I found the site to be a unique and legit cause ones you perform any task given to you, your coin will reflect immediately. There is also a chance for daily facuet roll where you can earn a little proportion of Bitcoin. The platform is called cointiply. I have earned Bitcoin in the past participating in most of the task like testing new apps, online survey and watching of videos. There is chance for you to win $700k by participating in the referral contest every month.

Since you have created this pool in the Bitcoin forum where most people wear their signatures and write to get paid (including myself), At least 50% of them will vote to Earn them. A good percentage of members probably work on crypto projects, and they get paid in Bitcoin as well. However, most people on this forum earn them via signature campaigns. If you create the same pool on other platforms like Twitter or others, I guess most people will vote to Buy them. So, the result will vary from platform to platform. If you ask the same question on the Casino Discord server, You will see people voting for Gamble.

Outside the forum there were a lot of different giveaways and activities, many made multi-accounts, but it feels like the time for such earnings is running out. Also, many had roles in the discord and received additional tokens, while it was hard to guess which project would give out generous rewards and which would give out small change. In general, you are right, but personally I am one of those who want to earn money inside the forum. I am tired of constantly searching for successful projects.

I think in the early times signature campaigns were still less or not well known and I think faucet sites were more popular than them. It can be because we were receiving a generous amount of coins, as their value was still low. It is like it was giving us an illusion.
The first bitcoin I received was also through a faucet, it can be said that this was the easiest way to earn bitcoin in the early years when bitcoin was not popular, and is the only way I know to get it without investing the money. Another good thing about the faucet before, is that payments on them are made straight to our desired crypto wallets. It was only sad that things have changed through the years and many faucet sites have now closed down. Signature campaigns on the other hand, are now the ones which are booming. I guess this is because cryptos are now popular, so a lot of start-up projects in this field are also opening up and they see a potential in signature campaigns to promote their brands.
At each stage of development we need different strategies, you cannot ask the faucet to continue to exist while the price of bitcoin has increased millions of times and is worth more than $60k. If it were you, would you be willing to use your bitcoins to distribute them to everyone for free? So the faucet's disappearance is understandable. Bitcoin has become very valuable and those who want to own it today need money, which will further increase the value of bitcoin. If it is still given away for free, I believe bitcoin will not be able to achieve high value.

We have got most of ours over the years with faucets,
Really? Do they even exist anymore? How much satoshis are we talking about here? I'm curious because from the day I started (back in 2014) and price was like $400, when I tried faucets the only conclusion was that they are a waste of time. All I've made is something like 50k satoshis at best. I have made a grand total of $6 from faucets. Or about a few thousand sats. It's definitely not worth it when you think about the math behind it. You've got so many people trying to earn free scraps so the faucet will eventually be drained - they are not profitable by design.

The two possible ways to likely HODL bitcoin currently, is either you buy it or you earn it. As for the buying, it's quite simple since all you need to do is just swap some fiat for an equivalent amount of bitcoin. On the other hand some people render services like freelancing and other gig like you mentioned and depending on their agreement with the client , some get paid in crypto currency which includes bitcoin.
The only one I really don't think it would be easy to HODL is selling goods for bitcoin. This is because the seller is would likely have to restock sooner and that won't be long term holding except the profit of course is nice enough to HODL.
Your profile says you recently woke up. Well welcome back to the forum
Don't forget to keep your keys safe
from the many experiences of friends in this forum, from small and easiest things like participating in airdrops and very complicated things like gambling or signature,bounty social which require consistency of time to get maximum results, but now it is different from the previous year from the beginning of 2017 It's very easy to get results on this forum, like an airdrop, just write join airdrop and the first one will get the prize even though we can't necessarily sell it..and on the other hand, now there are so many players and changes in the rules that I personally haven't been able to prevent their existence, what's new in the crypto world..

I’ve mainly earned my Bitcoin through freelance work and some trading. It’s rewarding to get paid in crypto for my skills! I’ve tried faucets too, but they felt like a slow grind. Overall, I enjoy the thrill of trading and seeing my efforts pay off in Bitcoin!

Most of the bitcoins I have in my wallet so far are earned by me and the rest I earned variously. I put most of the weekly payments I get from signature campaigns directly into Bitcoin. Since mining bitcoins is completely illegal in my country, mining can be excluded in my case but earning is not illegal, so I have earned most of the bitcoins. Besides signature campaign I earned bitcoins by trading occasionally.

For me there are three things: buying, mining and earning. Of course you can also do this with gambling, there are many possibilities, especially here in the fourm many providers are shown. I sold a few bitman devices many years ago and that was very profitable. So in 2017/2018 you could make good money with bitman batches in europe. So i will definitely buy bitcoins again in the future, i havent done that for a while now. So buying is not wrong in my opinion and never will be.

It's obvious that most of people who is here did not use their personal money to purchase bitcoin rather they obtained their first bitcoin through a signature campaign in the service board of bitcointalk, and some other people may likely obtain their first time bitcoin through investment, but I know that during the time bitcoin was first established their was an airdrop in which someone can also obtain bitcoin and I don't that time people have known bitcoin as they know bitcoin today, but in summary the most ways people received bitcoin is through promoting a particular signature brand here.

Even the old members or bitcoin enthusiast where bitcoin existed for a few years got their bitcoin from faucets that's why people joined signature campaign and other bounty campaigns to earn bitcoin when people can no longer get bitcoin from faucets. Honestly, the first crypto I got is ethereum and it is also the first crypto I bought using my own money although it's not much amount of eth since I bought it just to use it for transaction fees.
