as they say they work on cryptocurrencies even though they don't invest in it, from their work they certainly get a gift in the form of altcoins, but they may be sold immediately and leave nothing. If that's the case, I think they certainly have many types of altcoins, and are not ready to be used as fiat money, maybe because they haven't been listed on the exchange.

Some bitcoiner's haven't invested a single $ in bitcoin till now, there are many early adopters who haven't invested a single dollar in cryptocurrencies.
maybe many of you who entered during 2017 bull run will not believe it, but it's true many are still here who never invested anything in cryptocurrencies.
If you are the one its beautiful to share your story as this may become an interesting talk...   
Well as at the time I got into cryptocurrency trading, stablecoins wasn't a popular thing then and you MUST buy Bitcoin first with your local Fiat before you are able to trade that into other cryptocurrencies, however, you have pointed out that this does exist and thinking about it now, I too believe there are lots in here that have not really spend a $ on buying Bitcoin.

Those people who never invest on bitcoin are those countries where bitcoin is not legalized because they don't believe on decentralized currency in their country. Some of them know what bitcoin is all about in the community but they are still seeing bitcoin as a scammer currency that will never bring something good in the future. Those that have the money to invest on bitcoin are afraid because of the band their government has banned bitcoin in the country.

For sure they invest their time to get something in return so it still counted since you invested your  effort for this and you get paid for your hard work in crypto. If you see someone like this became successful then that's the payment of their long years of hard work seeking of information and be updated on the current happening in the crypto scene. There are also a lot of job options where people could choose and that will be a good start for beginners to grab their very first bitcoin or other altcoins.

I remember when airdrop and faucet are being profitable at that time and there's no need for you to spend your money investing in Bitcoin.

There's various way to invest in Bitcoin, it could be in exchange for your service, money, time, and effort, or any valuable stuff that could be exchanged for Bitcoin.  But all I mentioned above as a micro earning and of course, it has a small return of profit too.  The real investment and gaining huge profit you should put up capital to invest Bitcoin, those early adopters aren't faucet and airdrop collectors, they are investing Bitcoin and keeping it safe.                               

Airdrops and faucets? It was never profitable. Even when I started faucets were not even giving 1 cent, and the same today, they only seem profitable NOW because the 100 satoshi that you might get in 2016 is today worth 5 cents,,, but I always recommend against newbies to go for faucets EXCEPT to familiarize with addresses and wallets.

Like you said, time and effort. $50 a week goes a long long way if you can afford it. If you cannot, then $25 even a week is amazing returns after a few years.

It can be seen in many ways really. Even the early CPU miners have spent electricity for mining... of course, compared with today price, that's nothing. Still.. they have invested.
As the others said, trading, working for crypto... are all investments. Although I've bought bitcoin at some point, most of my coins came from earning them - bounties, signatures, translations...
Even claiming from faucets can mean a huge lot of time.

I see only two categories of people who didn't invest for the coins:
* people who earned them at free raffles/contests
* people who have received coins as gift

And I don't think that those have much of an interesting story to tell... I can pretty surely say that most of those are far from "early adopters".


Oh, on a second thought, there may be one category of early adopters who didn't invest into bitcoin: people who have claimed from the very early faucets and did HODL since. Good luck finding one of those though.

Kind of contradictory, talk about Bitcoiners who do not invest in Bitcoin. After seeing the answers, I partially agree with you that there are Bitcoiners who have not invested in the sense of exchanging their Fiat money for Bitcoin, but if we talk about the examples that have been given, for example, someone who saves everything he earns in signature campaigns, that is an investment, not a monetary one, but an investment nonetheless. Even the one who spent a lot of time collecting money from faucets was investing his time in that.

What you're talking about is me. I have joined this forum since 2017 and never once invested my money in crypto currency, but I am working to earn crypto. Namely, by working as a bounty hunter and airdrop hunter, recently I really hope that the results will be good.
What I do is a minimal risk investment, because what I invest is my valuable thoughts, knowledge and time.

When we talk about 2013-2017, many early bitcoiners can easily collect bitcoin from faucets as we know that faucet gives a decent amount of rewards to people. At that time, it is easy to get much of satoshi, which is why people are trying to play with faucets.

I think those who joined after 2017-2021 can also follow the step from early bitcoiners by joining in the bounty campaign and they do not have to invest much money to earn tokens or coins. The only thing that we need to invest in is our time to gather as much data as possible to follow the journey from cryptocurrency.
Investing our time and effort in participating signature campaigns that are paying in bitcoin can be considered already as bitcoin investment. So even if you have no money to put in, as long as you have sources that are paying you in bitcoin, then you cannot be called as zero investment.

However, if we think it more deeply, a bitcoiner who is not making investments at all is just very useless at all. Because there are a lot of opportunities in bitcoin that can give you profits, so its up to you how you will grasp every opportunity that comes.

Yes it is nice to hear of new investors, I have a new coin arriving soon that will have locked liquidity along with a d.a.o. project to coincide with it. Follow me for more info! Sound fundamentals similar to BTC

What you are claiming is probably your personal guess only. Surely, you do not have anything to put on the table to prove it? But I suppose ever since signature and bounty campaigns are offered in this forum, there must have been a good number of users who are only earning and not buying Bitcoin. But they are not the only Bitcoiners who did not directly buy Bitcoin. There are probably miners who never ever bought a single Satoshi.

Anyway, I am not one of them.

Bitcoiners with zero investment is kinda legit especially way back a few years ago.
For me, I can't say it is zero investment because I got my first Bitcoin on somehow like a job where I worked on and they paid me Bitcoin, so I can't say I got it free, I worked for it.
I can say it is free or zero investment is when people ask for Bitcoin for someone and they received Bitcoin without any work or task or anything they did, they just gave their Bitcoin wallet address and they already received.

There are also people who are telling that they don't put any money on it like "airdrops", there are some airdrops who got some task before giving any Bitcoin so it still works. And some also legit giveaways which is can be considered as free too.

When I started my Bitcoin journey by joining this forum in 2016, I didn't have any spare money to buy BTC, and as I was earning on this forum by doing freelance work and bounties, I even had to immediately spend my earned coins to cover my expenses. But I managed to save quite enough coins, so today a big portion of my stash can be traced back to those early earnings.

There can be people who hodl coins that were gifted to them, claimed from faucets, received as a payment, etc.

satoshi probably has never paid a single $ for Bitcoin.

Maybe for the first time we've been in the market and knowing about bitcoin, we would have never invested because we're not yet that ready and we don't have anything to invest.

But as we mature, we realize the true potential of bitcoin and how large it would be, the growth of it can do. That's why eventually, we're investing and doing some average part of buying such as DCA. That's likely the story of everyone which I did too.

When I first entered this forum, I never invested a penny in crypto. I'm looking for an income without capital on this forum, the investment I really do is invest time to work on each campaign that exists. and for every campaign that I work on, I get rewarded in the form of coins for the campaign project that I'm working on. sometimes I enter some contests that pay in dollars.

I didn't invest anything at first, but then after getting rewarded I started managing every investment I wanted to make. Do not be discouraged, there will be many ways to get it.

It's queit rare that someone will be in this space for about 4yrs without investing in Bitcoin.
Maybe it all matters what you  meant by investing.
To me;
1. Anyone that buys Bitcoin with fiat has invested.
2. Anyone that trades Bitcoin is involved.
3. Anyone that earns through campaigns is there.
4. Crypto gambler is involved.
5. Article writers
6. Project developers etc.
It just depends on what you invest, money, resources or time.

That is actually true. Poor, but smart bitcoin adopters have made a lot of profit (in bitcoin, not dollar) during the early days when bitcoin was still in the three or four houses digits. Instead of converting their funds to fiat, they have just held their precious coins, waiting for the perfect moment to finally enjoy the fruits of their long run visionary patience, that hasn't came yet for many, even thought bitcoin was able to reach its ATH recently.

On those times it wasn't exciting to think about the profitability possibilities. But seeing from today's perpective back then, it's insanely incredible! Just an example: Some years ago it was possible to make 100,000 satoshis from a faucet run which shouldn't take 2 hours of your time, that is equivalent to a 50$ daily income taking the currently market prices!

Just think if you didn't spend any satoshis you earned back then (that happened for real, it's not an hypothetical scenario), you could have accumulated 1500$ dollars in a monthly basis, working only 2 hours a day!
