I notice that most new users are here looking for ways to get rich off of Bitcoin. It's like Steve Jobs and his buddies created the personal computer, took all the risk and got the company running, started making big money and now people are buying the computer and sitting in front of it waiting for it to make them rich too.

Have you read the white paper?

https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf

Do you understand the whole point of Bitcoin and what it does for the world? Or are you just hearing about early adopters making a lot of money and you want to buy some bitcoins now so you can sell it later for more money and go back to your fiat world a richer person (though poorer in the long run for living in a fiat economy)?

Bitcoin is HUGE. It brings a whole new paradigm that is changing the world.

I compare Bitcoin's invention to Gutenberg's press invention: both bringing power (knowledge or economics) back to the people.

As prices are coming down, it is a real test of our belief. Only true believers are buying. I believe bitcoin is going to play a major role in global payments in the future. We are still in early stages, it needs our support.

Nothing is easy with btc.
If you mine you need starting capital for miners.
If you work you will earn your money.

If you invest you need to have capital.

For everything you need something.

Only for sig camp you dont need capital. So this is perfect way for bigger forum members (meaning senior hero and legendary)

I started using Bitcoin because it is said to be anonymous - we dont need to have paypal or sign whatsoever.. However, after sometime, I use Bitcoin mainly for investment.

So sad! This profile does not appear as the #1 result (on anonymous) Google searches anymore.

Time to be active on the crypto forums again? Proud to be one of the few Legendary members of the Sparkie Red Dot!

Gonna put this on my resume if I ever join a cryptocurrency/blockchain industry!

It seems like Way too many people got into BTC to "get rich quick." There are so many threads I've seen where people treat Bitcoin as if it is some magical currency that grows interest upon itself and can be "doubled" easily. And the fact that there are so many ridiculously obvious Ponzi schemes operating promising people 500% interest, and they believe it, does not help probably.

I understand the technology behind it and know that it is possible to change the world for the better in so many ways with it. I think this is why I am not necessarily worried about the 'low' prices lately. The technology itself is very valuable; this is still a Very young currency/commodity, large governments are still in the air about it, and these things will take time for people to relax and to stable out price-wise.

I'm here and interested for the freedom of all mankind. Free from any financial banks or laws that prevent the free man from conducting business with another man. Regardless of race, gender, religious, or political views.

A man is entitled to the sweat of his brow.

Bitcoin frees us.

I think the concept & to get rich is very good  Grin

But, mostly i am a long holder and only spend a few of my bitcoin when i need it  Grin

Not the concept of being rich.. Maybe the concept of making money easy.

It's not easy at all  Sad

I absolutely like the concept, but getting rich is the main motivator. I would have been equally invested even if it was just to get rich, the concept is a bonus as it makes this fun.

The thrive and fun makes it. If getting rich is the main motivator, than I suggest you HODL and come back in 10 years too brag.

Why not both?

We all work and do something with BTC or any altcoin.
So we can invest and make money in same time.

both of which make me love her and love to run,
