I earn money from Forex and trading Bitcoin x altcoins
I worked for Take Note, so they organised the files to send to me to transcribe, but I'm not sure if they hire outside of the UK. In my case I was paid directly into my bank account, but I wouldn't be surprised if PayPal was common.
I'm a web master and I'm doing web site realted jobs like SEO optimization etc. I earn money in this way.
You listen to recordings and type what is being said.
Last I get money is Btc on Cex.io and it's only 0.01 at the moment btc is still in low price 
I don't know of any sites that help you find transcription work though, I was told about it through a friend.

Any sites you recommend to find these transcription gigs? I know you need a verified PayPal account for some.
I was paid about £25-30 per audio hour working for Take Note (on the lower end of the scale as I had no prior experience, and wasn't doing legal or live transcribing). Better quality audio files would take around 3 hours to type per hour of audio, but it slipped to 4-5 hours if the quality was low and if people talked over each other too frequently. It was about 50:50 whether you'd get a good quality file or not, and you generally have around 24 hours from the point of being given the file to provide a transcript.
I generally got audio files of marketing interviews, usually with a main speaker who is interviewing 1-3 people. When you get more experienced you can move onto legal transcription which is paid a bit more per audio minute, but has stricter requirements.
FOR THE RECORD you can set up your cam so that the audience is in another country. That isn't the end all be all to remaining anonymous but it has gotten better.
What are you trying to say? Something like playing games and streaming or maybe something that some people actually pay for and saying that anonymity is a factor maybe that's somewhat a cam show or something. 
I did some transcription part time whilst I was at uni. You get given a recording (nearly always just audio) of a conversation which then you'll type up in a consistent format, word for word. You generally get paid per minute of audio, rather than how long it takes you - so initially it may take a bit longer than expected until you get used to it. Typing quickly (I think ~100WPM+ is recommended) helps somewhat, but it can't save you from a bad quality audio source.
I'd like more info on this!
Upwork take around 10% in commission, and /u/okay__cool is right - it's hard to pick up the first few jobs, but once that ball starts rolling it's much easier to get more work in.
Transcription services. I know people who do this full time.
Another vote for this - oDesk merged with Elance last year and is now Upwork. there's a range of work available from here. Different categories here: https://www.upwork.com/i/job-categories/
Do you write at all? I made some money doing editing work and some content writing on freelance sites like oDesk. It takes a little while to get going initially but once you have a few reviews you can usually make a little headway. I had one consistent client that was a great source of work with very reasonable hours per week.

Ballpark income - depends on the hours. I'm quite a specialised field, but I'd usually bank between $600-$1000 monthly as a minimum. (Rates may be different, I'm a database guy not a writer). Doing this really helped me dig myself out the hole I was in - my only regret was not doing it sooner!
I'll second Leapforce. The hardest part is passing the test, so make sure you study like crazy. Once you're in, its fairly menial and laid-back work. You're paid once a month and I've never had an issue with late or missing checks.
