Is it even possible to make a living by selling bitcoins?
i believe it is quite possible, if I have a very good miner, and accustomed to mining bitcoin, I'm sure I could live with selling bitcoins daily.

I think i need at least 0.1-0.2 bitcoin/week to make a living. but since the bitcoin price keep going down, i think i will need more bitcoin for living.

I need to earn 0.2 bitcoin each week for make a living my life. but nowdays it's hard because i feel lazy and the price of bitcoin keep decrease. and that makes me lazy to do it. if the price back up to $450 it will be good.


I am doing my day work as well along with bitcoin works.  If I completely depend on bitcoin means according to my city conditions I need 1 btc per month for me to run my family.

I usually sell 1BTC every month to meet the needs of my life. This very enough, because I am still single Smiley
The more important fact is your whereabouts. In some countries 1BTC is a LOT of money but rich EU countries or USA it is not that much.
I think this question needs to be answered individually by every person who wants to trade bitcoin/cryptocurrencies.
And of course you can live from it, I know people who are earning that way, but that is not your standard office job, more like a gambling - but with potentially lower risks.
yes 1 BTC/month in some Asian countries I thought it was very enough, do not have a high cost of living like in europe.

You are right, I live in India and it's very easy to survive if I spend BTC1 a month everytime...
But sometimes, inflation increases a lot due to which it is not possible to decide that what amount do we actually need in order to live on BTC...
despite being married 1 BTC is still quite alive in asia. yes it all depends on us, if we are smart to manage money 1 BTC/month can be enough Smiley

it depends on where you live and how much is the cost of life in that place. in some big cities of some countries 1BTC/month is not enough for living no matter if you manage it smart or not. add to that factors like mortgage payment or student loans,... then even 2BTC is not going to be enough.

This is it exactly, there is no one right answer as there are way too many variables. To answer for you specifically you just figure what you need to live on in your local currency for 1 month, then divide that amount by price (in your currency)/1 btc and you will have the number for BTCs a month you need to live. Of course this will probably vary month by month as the price of btc fluctuates a lot.

BTC is still too new and volatile in price right now to be a reliable means of living off. Even if you managed to secure a steady 2 BTC a month income, and further assuming that was enough in your region to live off of, what happens if the price of BTC drops in half? Sadly, BTC is still very much tied to its value it fiat, so at the end of the day even if you are buying things in btc, it is still priced based upon its relative value in fiat. A 0.01 BTC Starbucks today might sell for 0.02 BTC tomorrow and 0.05 BTC next month.

Yeah true, but after getting married, we need some more coins, not 1 full, but at least 0.5 BTC more in order to survive as if we get children in our life...
And yes, money management is obviously the most important step that we need to take care of if we are to live on Bitcoins alone, as the value of BTC is a factor based on which we will be managing our fiat and expenses...

Well if you don't have debt to the bank or other loans and payments and live frugally 1 BTC can be quite enough. And 2 BTC would be a nice living.

Sooo many factors

Cost of living
How much BTC do you have
How are you going to keep the BTC supply going
Do you want to improve your lifestyle
Are you willing to cut your lifestyle back

and so on

The answer would be different for each and every one of us
