The first time i heard about bitcoin is from my geeky friend who discovered this kind of cryptocurrency and in the first few weeks, i don't believe him that we can earn money here on bitcoin but after he shows his profit or converted bitcoin into fiat. It attracts me to try this kind of opportunity and now i can say that i'm earning more than he can.
Geeky people will easier to know about bitcoin, because it is so related with technology. I heard bitcoin for the first time from my brother, he isn't geek but he have a lot of geeky friends.

The first time u heard about bitcoin on the TV on news, but that time they were talking about bitcoin as about new financial pyramid. And when I have just joined to bitcoin I was searching the way to play poker online without cash.

I first saw it various online advertisement about the services through Bitcoin. I also came through various forum topics about BTC, but ignored it that time. Later after few months, understood all from a person.

A friend of me introduced bitcoin as an earning source when I was in additional need of money other than the regular earning from monthly gross income. This helped me to learn more about it and little by little explored more about the truth behind it as a technology. Now making regular saving in bitcoin as well involved in small scale trading.

Even though we live in the internet era as I have read many of the posts of this thread I was surprised that most of the people learned about bitcoin from a friend or a relative and not from internet. The way I see it it shows that the news by word of mouth is still alive.

Well, now i am really fan of bitcoin, because now bitcoin has cross $1023. I don't think that anyone will be here who don't like bitcoin now.
And when i know about bitcoin?
Since one and half years ago, i was searching something on YouTube, than suddenly i saw about bitcoin, in that time, i really didn't know about any crypto currencies, so it was new for me, and i started to search about it, and when i know about bitcoin than bitcoin was $285, and in that time i have money, and i bought 4 to 5 bitcoins and recently i sold them, and you know bitcoin really give me good profit.

My case is similar to some other users, I was first trying to learn more about economics, politics and free market related topics, as a consequence, I found content on YouTube that talked about the cryptocurrency, and this made me learn about the purpose of Bitcoin. But to better understand how the currency works and to make sure that it was something serious, I looked for content with a more technical level on the subject.

One of my friends introduced Bitcoins to me. As far as I remember, it took allot of time for him to make me understand what Bitcoin is and how it is mined and used, coz I ask too many stupid questions..  Grin
He is my mentor and I can't thank him enough for everything. Now I earn, trade and gamble, in fact Bitcoin is in my day to day routine now.  Wink
in fact i also heard about bitcoin from one of my friend. but in start i was not going to trust on him but when give me evidence of earning money from bitcoin and from bitcointalk.org the i also adopt bitcoin and now i am also earning a good amount of bitcoin.
Of course some people heard about bitcoin as a way to make money online at first
But everything changes as time goes by , you realize it's more than that
And even nowadays a lot of newcomer admit the same thing
It's not a big deal how you heard abiut bitcoin , the most important is to keep support bitcoin.

Same here even I came to know about bitcoin through my friend and he showed me how he was earning money with bitcoin and firstly I was bit confused about it but after reading and learning I found bitcoin very interesting concept and now I cannot afford to stay away from bitcoins.
its very good that everyone aware their friend about bitcoin and if we continues this step i hope bitcoin users will be more increase and i think currently  bitcoin needs our support to promote it in anywhere .

I first hear bitcoin when my friend see me that I am broke interms of money , he told me how can he earn money . Thats the start I used bitcoin . I am glad that he helped me that time because I lost my job before and I need a source of money. In thankful to my friend who introduce bitcoin.

Yes being a volatile currency, there are many opportunities of earning through bitcoin trading and even in other sectors such offering services, lending etc can render good returns than that of fiat. However, I think people should look at bitcoin as a medium of exchange rather than a money making scheme or something (yes making money through it is no offence but still we should have broad approach). This is my personal opinion and everyone might have the different opinion than this one.

I heard about Bitcoin by a friend, that learnt me some things but told me that I would remember them better if those answers were questions I asked myself. That is why I am here, to learn more about Bitcoin ! What catched my attention in what he was saying was the blazingly fast and cheap transactions that can work worldwide !
