Young but I'm not that bold
Bitcoin helped me a lot because it is so easy to receive payments with btc and with low fees , if I were using PayPal it would cost me a lot of fees

I don't think that bitcoin will ever ruin our life, it is helping our life as we have more options to choose the currency. If you are fed up with the traditional banking system and wish to try the new age currency then bitcoin is the perfect option and this has been proved over the past few years. One day more and more people will be using bitcoins then there are all the chances to increase the bitcoin prices.

I have spent last 10 years on online earning for my life. I can earn and i made a life from it but was not able to secure my life for the future. But bitcoin gives me the hope for the secured future. So, for me bit coin has helped me to plan for my future.

That's great that thru online earning you can live without working in real job but you know you must never depend on bitcoin as a assurance of a secured future. Even @ low chances bitcoin crash. Much better to find an alternatives thru finding a real job or making a business. Only treat bitcoin as side earnings.

I still new with bitcoin. So far, i think bitcoin is just like other currencies.
it will not ruin my life, and will not help my life also, just like other currencies such as USD and EUR

For most people this is the case. The fact another currency exists it's not a big deal if you don't have money to begin with. If you are fiat broke, you will be BTC broke. So unless you can think of certain specific uses to benefit from it, it doesn't change your life in any way. The only thing you can do unless you have a better idea is try to buy some monthly and use it as an investment, holding it like gold. The average guy will not see much other uses right now.

Bitcoin once ruined my life when I was kinda addicted to bitcoin gambling, I become broke that time but eventually moved on and started over again. This time I stopped gambling and start doing paid tasks to cover up my losses on gambling. Right now I still gamble and invest but not that much like before.

But that is not bitcoins fault. Bitcoin and gambling are separate things although they are perfectly fitting.

The thing with gambling is that eventually you will win, its only your luck deciding it.


Only your luck decides that you win before you lose all your money.


For example if you use a dice site, and you set it to x1000 multiplier, and have a deposit of 1 btc, but bet 0.05 btc, then you can either win 50 BTC, or lose your 1 BTC.

On average your are more likely to lose your 1 BTC, but if you are lucky you can win the 50 BTC faster than you lose the 1 BTC, you get me?

But make sure you dont risk that much, and make sure that the game is provably fair!

Helped definitely.

Started off using faucets to earn micro bits. When I earned my first 0.001satoshi on bitvisitor, I deposited it in cex.io. Then I went on Amazon and bought an Antminer U2 and mined whenever I can. Eventually I got more from faucets and got some helpful donations and reached 0.01. I sold and gambled some and managed to get to 0.1. From there I just kept on investing and gambling and selling. From the amount I earned I think I paid back the amount my USB miner cost. Cheesy

Bitcoin helped my life. Just like it is a source of my income also, and through this i also enjoyed some interesting things about bitcoin news,marketing etc. That's all bitcoin is helpful anyway Smiley

Awesome you managed bitcoin as source of your income? How you do that? You are only Junior Member here in this forum and doesn't wearing any signature so I will assume your method is really rocking.

He probably is selling something most likely, theres very little options outside from the signature aspect.

Either that or he has made several good trades to consider a partial source of income.

Maybe he is living in a country where the standard of living is not so high. A couple of dollars a week extra through a sig campaign can have a serious impact in countries where the avarage monthly wage is a couple of 100 dollars worth.

I surely thing many bitcoin miners got their lives ruined. Especially those that earned millions of dollars out of bitcoin mining.

How bad it is for you to be a 9-5 worker in a slave job, and suddenly become a millionaire, who is financially free and can buy anything they want.

I think its a total life ruination, I prefer to remain a slave of the system, rather than becoming a millionaire, because it is very trendy to be a slave.


(sarcasm)


True, but a lot of people bought at the top of the last bubble and will probably sell at a big loss because they aren't (or can't afford) to wait for the next ATH.
Other peoples lifes got ruined because they realized they could have been millionaires if they didnt ignore Bitcoin in the early days.
