I just surfed the XBTFreelancer website. While the number of freelancers is huge, there was not even one project found when I browsed the projects.
Is there anything that I am missing or there is really not a single project on the website ?

How about adding a newsletter to OP . Users can directly read the newsletter or even subscribe to it on the below website.

Bitcoin Optech

Also, we can add the below books in the Developers section along with "Mastering bitcoin" since all the 3 are essential to start learning more about bitcoin.

Please be careful about what is being suggested to unsuspecting new users through a pinned topic.

Ref: Bitcoin exchange Paxful stealing peoples bitcoin
Hi, i wasn't aware of this issue with Paxful as well.I'm glad that issue got resolved after a long wait.
However i haven't had any bad experience using them as long as you stick to safe trading practices.There's always a risk when dealing with these centralised services.


https://microlancer.io/  lightning-network based Freelancing site for micro-tasks.
Meanwhile, I have never really used this and can't endorse them in the OP. Most of the sites which I have mentioned has been tested by myself and have positive reviews all over the internet. Let me just try to use this platform and if I tend to have a positive experience, I will add it to the OP. If you are aware of any other freelancing sites which pays in Bitcoin you can mention them up here.
I understand this.This was a fun site for using The lightning network for micro tasks (sub 50k sats).

I wasn't aware of the suspicious activities being carried out by Paxful. As of now, till the suspicions gets cleared from the Paxful side I have removed them from the OP. Thanks for bringing these to light.

Seems like XBTFreelancer.com is defunct / doesn't work anymore.

Unocoin.com and Zebpay.com can possibly be updated in the OP.
Removed XBTFreelancer and have added Unocoin. Zebpay doesn't still seem to have entered the market, until then they wouldn't get listed in the OP.



Spamming with referral codes aren't allowed in the forum. Kindly edit the post of yours without mentioning referral codes. If they aren't edited asap, I don't have an option other than removing the post.

why have you mentioned exchanges that have nothing to do with INR? For Crypto-to-Crypto, if you mention Binance, you need to mention BitMex, BitFinex and even CoinBase, as all of them has good volume and on board Indian users.


Exactly.

How else can anyone figure out which algorithmic, automated, trading bot might be already compatible with which exchange?!


Bitcointalk is a good marketplace for freelancing with bitcoin. In the early days of my forum journey, I got a client from here. I was asked to write an article for him.
I have used this forum for learning about bitcoin, shared my knowledge. However, he somehow noticed and PMed me. Now we are having a long term deal for writing him. This is a great pleasure for me.
If someone wants to start freelancing for bitcoin, I would advise to start from bitcointalk, a great marketplace.

I thought it could be a little hard to get some "trading" related work but this is good to know and inspiring, thanks.

Might be worth considering addition of https://paxful.com/buy/bitcoin/india. p2p also has partnership with binance.
Thank You Vikhy. I have added paxful to the list of trading platforms available here for Indians to buy and sell bitcoins. If you got to know about other links you can share them here as well. Will add credits to you by tomorrow after I have done some minor changes to Wallets subsection.

Thank You newIndia. OP has been updated with localcryptos and Bitrefill sites. Bitrefill is a noteworthy and must have additions to the OP.
Welcome.

Though I have used Bitrefill only twice, are they really trusted in terms of Indian economy is concerned? I am aware of the fact that they have really good and trustworthy reviews for international markets but is there any problem when we provide them with our mobile numbers or use their gift card codes?
Given the current situation of India, I guess, it is better not to provide mobile numbers to any Crypto portal. But, most of the gift cards other than mobile recharge can be purchased though disposable Email ID.

BTC/ETH: https://localcryptos.com - P2P - non-Custodian - no centralized KYC

Also, variety of gift cards from Amazon to BigBasket to Uber is available at https://www.bitrefill.com/buy/india/. I guess, it deserves a mention in OP.

Side note for new Bitrefill users : Bitrefill is one of the fastest adopters of Lightning Network for smaller payments and they have received over more than 1BTC through lightning payments!

Nice thread. But, why have you mentioned exchanges that have nothing to do with INR? For Crypto-to-Crypto, if you mention Binance, you need to mention BitMex, BitFinex and even CoinBase, as all of them has good volume and on board Indian users. I would also like to know, how reliable idex.market really is!

For Crypto-to-INR and vice-versa, I'll suggest to enlist the following...

BTC: https://bisq.network - P2P - non-Custodian - no centralized KYC - decentralized

BTC: https://hodlhodl.com - P2P - non-Custodian - no centralized KYC

BCH: https://local.bitcoin.com - P2P - non-Custodian - no centralized KYC

ETH: https://localethereum.com - P2P - non-Custodian - no centralized KYC

BTC/ETH: https://localcryptos.com - P2P - non-Custodian - no centralized KYC

Also, variety of gift cards from Amazon to BigBasket to Uber is available at https://www.bitrefill.com/buy/india/. I guess, it deserves a mention in OP.

The OP has been updated with various new communities and I have added newer resources and did some minor changes in the topic as well. If I have left out any of the important communities or other resources kindly add them here.

Finally, the topic has been pinned along with webtricks's 'People Pay your taxes' topic!  Smiley

Should this topic be pinned on top replacing the older worn out topic?

If so, we could all report them and any of the global mods would pin them replacing the older one.
I already reported it to the mods like 2-3 days back to be pinned stating that the old topic is irrelevant. But it shows that report is unhandled. Maybe if everyone reported, we might get them pinned.

PS : I have no idea on the taxation, mining and their role in the Indian economy. So if anyone willing to contribute to that particular section, please post it here. Thanks again to everyone who have contributed so far.  Smiley We are cumulatively bringing back the Indian board and simultaneously driving away the shitposters and translation abusers!
No such regulations have yet been passed by the Indian government for cryptocurrency taxation which includes mining.
So I guess there is no tax on crypto for now. Lol that sounds so good while the crypto situation is worse in India.

Freelancing with bitcoin doesn't have much available platform. However, if someone has good experiences on some areas, they can get some job here. Bitcointalk is a good marketplace for freelancing with bitcoin. In the early days of my forum journey, I got a client from here. I was asked to write an article for him.
I have used this forum for learning about bitcoin, shared my knowledge. However, he somehow noticed and PMed me. Now we are having a long term deal for writing him. This is a great pleasure for me.

Hi, I don't understand why you have specifically mentioned the term 'coinbase' in the below part in the mining section. Does the rewards have anything to do with coinbase ?
As CounterEntropy pointed out, coinbase is the very first transaction in a block and they are added by the miner to the list of transactions they are going to include in the block. The coinbase doesn't have a UTXO input which almost all the bitcoin transactions have, but rather a coinbase input and a output which sends the freshly mined bitcoin to the miner's address.

Here is the code for the generation of new bitcoin from validation.cpp

Code:
CAmount GetBlockSubsidy(int nHeight, const Consensus::Params& consensusParams)
{
    int halvings = nHeight / consensusParams.nSubsidyHalvingInterval;
    // Force block reward to zero when right shift is undefined.
    if (halvings >= 64)
        return 0;

    CAmount nSubsidy = 50 * COIN;
    // Subsidy is cut in half every 210,000 blocks which will occur approximately every 4 years.
    nSubsidy >>= halvings;
    return nSubsidy;
}


I think you could phrase it as below

'Along with that, the miners get rewarded with 12.5 BTC as per the current reward rate which is included in that particular block and goes to the miner's address.'
Thanks for re-phrasing the line. As I have already said, the topic is meant to serve as a reference to the newbies who come to the Indian board to learn something new. So, the technical terminology wouldn't be good for the common people. Let me update the OP with your new phrase.
